Cloudflare Access is primarily used in government homage for DDoS protection.
We decided to use Cloudflare Access to solve a problem with DDoS protection.
It covered the things that we needed at the time.
The pricing is an area that can be improved. Pricing, as far as I recall, was the source of our problems.
I have been working with Cloudflare Access for the last 12 months. I am working with a company that has many customers in different areas, and we have absolutely used Cloudflare for some of them.
I became familiar with Cloudflare Access four years ago.
Cloudflare Access is a stable solution.
Cloudflare Access is scalable.
I especially remember that we got great support.
I would absolutely rate the support a five out of five, they helped us a lot.
Positive
It's been a while, but I don't recall any problems with setting it up.
At the time, it was me and two other technicians to manage this solution.
The prices are slightly expensive.
I evaluate many things to educate myself in the work that I am doing.
We have used others as well, but I think that they are pretty comparable to other solutions that are available. Cloudflare, in my opinion, was easy to implement.
It was very good, I would rate Cloudflare Access an eight out of ten.
We use the product to mitigate the security risk of dynamic DDoS attacks. In these attacks, millions of requests come from millions of different IPs to get our server down. If we do not have a security solution to mitigate this risk, the service for other users will be down. The server will be down due to the huge consumption of resources.
The solution has different options that can be used to differentiate DDoS attacks. Cloudflare has a user agent, which can be used to define rules. If I do not want MacBook users to access the system, I can use the user agent to drop the traffic for MacBook users. It is very valuable. It helps me mitigate risks.
The product gives us many tools to mitigate risks. It is one of the most powerful solutions on the cloud. The documentation is good.
The onboarding process can be improved a little bit.
I have been using the solution for nine months.
I did not face any stability issues in the past nine months.
I recently contacted support to get more information about certain attacks. I wanted to get a full report about an incident, and they sent me all the details I needed.

The initial setup is not complex at all. It is too simple.
We just have to integrate the node IP address of AWS and change the public IP as a DNS record. Then, Cloudflare will send all the data after mitigating any risk to AWS. The deployment takes five to seven business days. We need one or two engineers for the security part of the deployment. For testing and services, we need a team.
It is a cloud solution. We have integrated it with Amazon AWS. Sometimes we can't mitigate the DDoS attacks using AWS WAF. It doesn’t detect the attacks. AWS WAF does not have some options to differentiate the type of attacks.
I use the tool only as a DDoS solution. I just use the DDoS service to protect myself. There's no scalability for this option. Documents already exist for all the cloud solutions. I wouldn’t prefer an automated solution for integration because apps are built based on customers’ requirements. The requirements differ, so the default profile for automation can't fit all the customers. Overall, I rate the product a nine and a half or ten out of ten.
Cloudflare DDoS mitigates DDoS attacks.
Cloudflare DDoS mitigates DDoS attacks mostly by distributing the attacks through their network, which means many of their PoPs will hit your servers. When you have a huge DDoS attack, Cloudflare DDoS will stop the attack after some time. Until then, it will just register the DDoS attack through their network because they have a huge network, and then all those PoPs will hit your servers.
Cloudflare DDoS has poor technical support.
I have been using Cloudflare DDoS for five years.
More than 10,000 users are using Cloudflare DDoS in our company.
I previously used F5.
The solution's pricing lacks transparency. You never know what you're paying for, and even their team sometimes cannot give you a correct answer on how they calculate something.
Overall, I rate Cloudflare DDoS a seven out of ten.
We use the product for DNS security and DDoS.
Cloudflare DDoS is better than its competitors for its security, deployment, and scalability.
The tool should provide on-premise versions. Currently, all versions are cloud-based.
I have been using the solution for six months.
Cloudflare is a customer-oriented company and offers solid support.
Positive
The tool's deployment is complex. I rate it a three out of ten.
I rate the tool an eight out of ten.
