Network security system that helps businesses of all sizes protect data from cyber threats with a unified prevention, detection, response, and hardening platform across endpoint, network & cloud.
Cloudflare speeds up and protects millions of websites, APIs, SaaS services, and other properties connected to the Internet.
I loved that you can always get a good deal for a one-year subscription to get three computers safe and sound. I like that it is not constantly bugging you with a million reminders and notifications.
Complaints about all AV vendors and some of their updates give us grief when running during business hours, but all-in-all it catches most of what's out there which is the point.
Bit defender has proven to be the best among the competitors. Providing high levels of security, great features and customizations.
The portal can be somewhat confusing when new and if you have no experience.
The problem that Bitdefender solves is that I don't worry about intrusions and infections.
Especially considering I usually do a custom scan when something is going wrong. Each separate admin has their own separate "console" and they have to set it up on their own.
My overall experience with bitdefender is very good, it's a reliable protection solution.
Customer service at Bitdefender was frustrating to deal with and less than accommodating.
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.
Walt R.: Hi, I'm Walt. I'm a System Admin. I give Bitdefender five out of five. Click below. We were using Sophos when we went to Bitdefender, and I really didn't consider any other products because I already done sufficient research to know that it was the product to go with. I ended up choosing Bitdefender because one, it was the highest rated product for years from Independent Labs, and I had extensive experience of using it as both, basically, the personal product and small business product, and it had been bulletproof. It was set and forget. It just works. Bitdefender was a breeze to deploy compared to other enterprise products I have had used in the past. I was able to do it all by myself without any input from support. The only thing that was a bit of a learning curve was just learning their particular user interface, which is not quite the same as you would get with most of the mainstream products. After using Bitdefender for, gosh, now seven years and having used other products, I can't recommend any other product for your basic anti-malware. They have increased the scope and the ability of the product without increasing the load on my computers. Nobody notices when we run full scans. It has the same features of standalone products like Carbon Black, Silence, and CrowdStrike, at a price that is lower than any of those individual licenses. And like I said, Bitdefender listens to their customers and they are responsive.
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.
