Find out in this report how the two CDN solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I rate its stability a ten out of ten."
"The UI is good."
"The solution is very good at mitigating threats."
"DDoS attacks target unprotected machines. Cloudflare detects and stops these attacks using internal systems. It identifies incoming DDoS attacks, issuing challenges or blocking them immediately."
"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare is that it has a free version. They give us the free version with the anti-DDoS features and also the load balancing solution."
"It's very user-friendly."
"Smaller businesses have seen great ROI due to the low investment and strong performance."
"I like Cloudflare's application gateway and DDoS protection."
"The Rules Engine V4 is the most valuable feature."
"The product is easy to use and easy to implement."
"It's super easy to use and integrate with."
"There are some issues with the CDN services."
"I would like Cloudflare to offer a dedicated account manager for large enterprise clients like us."
"The reporting can definitely be improved to offer a lot more explanation on something that may have happened or has actually happened."
"They lack a good way to manage DNS as a company, since everything is relegated to single account logins until you get to the higher levels. They have come out with a paid feature to remedy this, but I have not had a chance to fully review it yet to know if it fixes the access problem."
"There should be a specific price list for enterprise-level customers."
"Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to buy Cloudflare in my country."
"DNS Management."
"It should have easier documentation for the configuration. It's very technical and people who aren't technical should also be able to do the configuration."
"We could not create more than 15 custom rules."
"In the next release, I would like to see more global endpoints for their CDN and a lower price."
"The web interface of the Verizon Edgecast portal is very old. It's not user-friendly, slow, and it is missing some valuable features like the ability to make bulk changes."
