Cloudflare: Exceptional Security and Performance with a Worthwhile Learning Curve
Cloudflare: Exceptional Security and Performance with a Worthwhile Learning Curve
Pros
I found it very easy to integrate Cloudflare with our existing infrastructure, and it offers wide range of security features. The platform's scalability and performance improvements for apps and websites have been great
Cons
The initial learning curve could be better as it takes time to get the hang of all of Cloudflares features. But for those willing to put in the effort the platforms depth offers strong capabilities.

Pros
Adding my website to Cloudflare was really easy. I just had to change the nameservers. I like that it adds another layer of security to my site. It also comes with a fast content delivery network and from what I have read the fastest DNS out there.
Cons
No real downsides here. From the free plan to Enterprise it gives some good features.

Cloudflare is easy to set up and customize and has great user management. It also gives solid insight into what is happening around you in the community.

You need to know a bit about DNS setup. If you are not familiar with that it might feel a bit overwhelming. Also the enterprise pricing is not really clear.

A great layer of protection with varying price plans
A great layer of protection with varying price plans
Pros
I like how Cloudflare offers quick protection with its free nameservers and DNS features. It is a great way to add security and other functions to your website or network just by switching nameservers. You also get free features like SSL a firewall page rules and more. Even the free plan has offered a ton of protection and the features have been useful for over 10 years.
Cons
I do not like the constant changes to old features. While the new ones are okay it can be annoying when trying to do something simple in a new way. Also support can be a bit hit and miss and they seem to push for plan upgrades to get better service.

Pros
Cloudflare offers a bunch of tools and services that are really easy to set up with detailed documentation. The pricing is awesome for what it does. A lot of the tools are free with generous limits. Once I started using it I could not imagine switching because it does so much and works so well that I do not need alternatives.
Cons
My only small issue is there are so many menus it is easy to get around but I sometimes get lost. They also change or add new services often so it can take a bit to find where an option is.

Takes your stress away
Pros
I first came across Cloudflare around 10 years ago after our business website got hit by a major DDoS attack. After that our hosting company refused to keep our site so we had to switch providers. Our new host was happy to take us on and recommended Cloudflare as an extra layer of security and I have been using it ever since.

When using their Wordpress speedup features it is hard to know if they will clash with another speed-up plugin.
