It may be hard to do design modifications on the website if you don't clear or disable the cache. It is frustrating sometimes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best CDN for small-medium business"

5/5

What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

Easy to setup, good value for the price, many features, all you need in other words.

Obviously to feel the whole power of the service you need to be an Enterprise client, where you get lots of features that allowyou configuring CloudFlare right up to your needs. Except many features that come with Enterprise plan, you get their amazing customer success team that is always ready to help and really helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

DNS management UI could be much better. Right now it's really simple and is more oriented on novice users than professionals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cloudflare Application Security and Performance:

If you don't have an active CDN, even just setting up Cloud Flare on the free plan is going to give a value. Being on Enterprise plan is totally worth it in my case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you?

Content delivery and caching. Content caching helps to reduce load on origin servers, thus reducing the number of servers needed for the platform to run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best CDN out there"

4/5

What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

the prices are awesome, basically, they have a forever free SSL for WordPress with no bandwidth limit. for small businesses at the starting, it's a great help to protect their websites from malicious attacks. the protection feature comes with multiple servers spread all around the globe as well as tins of features which is great. they also give premium features like REST API for free. the support is also really helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

the commercial plan is no near affordable for small businesses, it's important to improve website quality as the business grows but the switch from free to the commercial plan of the Cloudflare DDoS plan is nowhere near affordable in one step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cloudflare Application Security and Performance:

its a great stop to get yourself going and for a better web experience. if you can afford, go for the commercial plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you?

mainly Cloudflare helps us optimize our websites for speed and security, it's essential for every business to have a website with high security as it shows the quality and improves the trust within the customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Free Plan Offering Premium Features"

5/5

What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

The free plan on CloudFlare is simply unbelievable value. For the low cost of nothing, you gain a world class CDN system which offers enterprise level security that rivals many premium, high cost solutions. The variety of features is astonishing too, with free SSL certificates, caching services and advanced analytics included also with the free plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

It's hard to fault CloudFlare, but if I were to criticise something it would be that many of the caching features cause severe breakage to a site. For example, whenever I enable the Rocket Loader my WordPress sites are always broken in some form. However, beggars can't be choosers and these issues can simply be averted by not enabling this feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cloudflare Application Security and Performance:

With a free product such as CloudFlare it is hard to go wrong, and is very easy to go right. It's definitely worth trying out the software for yourself and seeing how it can improve your website infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main reason we first started using CloudFlare within our business was to upgrade all of our sites to SSL effortlessly, in preparation for the new Google HTTPS stricter rules. CloudFlare served this function perfectly, saving us money on advanced SSL certificates as well as time on installing these certificates manually. Since then, we have explored the other features of CloudFlare and impressed has been an understatement. As stated earlier, the benefits of CloudFlare are simply astonishing for a free product.
