Find out what your peers are saying about Cloudflare, NETSCOUT, Akamai and others in Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) Protection."The most valuable feature is the web application firewall."
"Generally, I am satisfied with this product."
"Cloudflare has many features."
"Many websites require an SSL certificate because they sell stuff and want SSL. Cloudflare comes with an SSL certificate built in. It's automatic. You sign yourself up for Cloudflare, and an SSL certificate automatically protects your website. You don't necessarily need a certificate if you have a connection between your website and your host, the server, Cloudflare, and the host."
"The UI is good."
"The DDoS protection is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Cloudflare is a security SaaS provider that provides security and protects us from any application layer attack."
"It is easier to configure and develop documentation to see how we have configured firewalls."
"The stability of the product is good since I haven't had any problems with the solution."
"I am impressed with the product's automatic bot mechanism. It also gives us the control to create our own custom bot rules."
"It would be good if Cloudflare could have more servers for better traffic routing or an increase in the traffic routed. This is what I'd like to improve in Cloudflare."
"Sometimes their more advanced caching tools can cause higher first-byte times and problems with JavaScript."
"Support response time could be improved."
"Although I think it's quite good, it doesn't provide me with all the features I would expect to have if I were using Imperva."
"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."
"I would like Cloudflare to offer a dedicated account manager for large enterprise clients like us."
"Cloudflare's console should be made more user-friendly."
"The reporting can definitely be improved to offer a lot more explanation on something that may have happened or has actually happened."
"The tool needs to include artificial intelligence and machine learning. It also needs to improve profiling."
"Sometimes, it takes a bit of time for the technical staff of the solution to get back to our company with a resolution for our problems."
