Karambir K
CEO
4.0

Karambir: Hi, my name's Karambir. I'm the CEO of a small company. It's just me actually, and I give CloudFlare a four. I found out about CloudFlare. I don't remember exactly how, but it was either through email or internet search, just about this product that was helpful for managing websites, and handling caching, and 24/7 availability, that kind of thing. I chose CloudFlare because it was free. At the time it seemed to be the only product. It was something I could easily create an account for, and it met the basic needs of a small website, which is just making sure it's available all the time, and reasonably good caching and throughput. It was fairly easy to get started with. CloudFlare, you have to switch over your DNA name servers, so it requires some technical experience, but otherwise, it was fairly easy to get set up. Okay, so if you're considering getting CloudFlare, consider it's really designed for higher end websites, with a lot of users, maybe multiple servers spread around the globe. For a smaller organization or just like a one-off website, it may be more complex than you really need. So it depends on the size of your organization, how much traffic, how much web traffic you have.
