Find out in this report how the two CDN solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution provides good load balancing and protection against DDoS attacks."
"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare is the GUI. You are able to control the solution very well through the interface. There is a lot of functionality that is embedded in the service."
"I like Cloudflare's application gateway and DDoS protection."
"There are key things that are used for our enterprise customers, such as Lambda and DNS."
"The technical support is good."
"Cloudflare offers CDN and DDoS protection. We have the front end, API, and database in how you structure applications."
"It is easier to configure and develop documentation to see how we have configured firewalls."
"I rate its stability a ten out of ten."
"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."
"The solution could work at being less expensive. It costs a lot to use it."
"There should be a specific price list for enterprise-level customers."
"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."
"Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to buy Cloudflare in my country."
"In the last two years, there has been a certain amount of downtime when using the VDM."
"The reporting can definitely be improved to offer a lot more explanation on something that may have happened or has actually happened."
"I think the APIs are a little bit hard for us to work with. The APIs could be more open so that we could integrate better with our SolarWinds or our monitoring solution."
"Latencies are always a problem."
"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."
"We could not create more than 15 custom rules."
