Cloudflare speeds up and protects millions of websites, APIs, SaaS services, and other properties connected to the Internet.
Designed for small businesses, a website optimization tool that provides custom forms, social media integrations, product reviews/star ratings, website popups, media galleries, visitor reviews + more.
I like that the website’s performance is improved with reguards to the speed with Cloudflare’s CND. The speed of the websiteis increased with the optimizating feature like Brotli compression for SSL.
Cloudflare was slowing down my websites, causing conflicts and the typical "Error 502 - Bad gateway" error. When I stopped using Cloudflare, I never had this issue anymore.
Cloudflare provides our websites for CDN, DDOS security and SSL for free. Its very helpful for our websites reach globally with good speed and secure.
Setting up DNS servers can be difficult and backtracking from a mistake can be very time-consuming unless you know exactly what you are doing.
Overall experience with cloudflare is amazing because it provides so much useful things in their both free & paid membership.
My last, very frustrating experience has ruined the positive experience of previous years. I had to move the site back to the original hosting losing a significant amount of time.
Great set of tools from a reliable and world leading company, with a great community and a full range of documentation.
Also every now and then my site looks odd. I clear the cache on site and browser and it still looks odd.
Impressed with ease of use, intuitive editor and quick publisher. Powerful opportunities with forms will help many entrepreneurs.
Also, they boast of having 60+ apps but most of them are repeats. It may be misleading information for potential new customers.
They made everything simple, even too simple for me. The ability to add several plugin with superb easy installation.
For example, many elements lack contrast. In addition, some sections of the website's content are truncated - making it difficult to read the text in these areas.
It is something that I can use daily, or only look into every now and then. It has been a great pop up source for lead gen and is super customizable to any company.
The only thing missing for me is integration with Square for payments.
Every thing is so perfectly placed on the dashboard click and drop panels. I'm so excited I got this hands down one of my best investments for sure.
The only one problem that I found is about domain counting; I've never known automatically how many sites I have used. I have to count by myself.).
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.
