It's easy to set up because you point the DNS to it, and it's working in under 15 minutes
Cloudflare is highly scalable. Cloudflare is a system with a web portal that the end users like me see. It's a console where we can adjust the DNS, caching, and security features all in that console. Cloudflare owns thousands of servers across the world that cache the data. It's a powerful solution. When clients sign up for Cloudflare, they're getting this monster content delivery network, security, and a web application firewall in one. It's all rolled into one, and it's massive. Unless you have your website hosted on a massive hosting provider, there's no way that you can deliver the amount of data that Cloudflare can provide to the end users. If you have static content, there's no way that you can ever match what Cloudflare can do. Obviously, there are competitors to Cloudflare that do the same, but I'm saying other types of solutions. Let's say you go with F5. Great, that's on-prem. That's in your colo. You can't deliver as much data to the internet as you can with a CDN. You don't have to spend $20,000 on a net scaler, F5, or whatever Cisco's selling now. You don't have to buy that. You pay them $50 a month or $150 a month. It's totally worth it because even in five years, you'll never get the performance value, not just the actual ROI. You have to consider how much throughput you can get with Cloudflare.

Block USBs and manage ports effectively across multiple OS platforms
There is an important feature that needs to be added. In Linux, it is difficult to control uninstallation. Users can uninstall it at any time, and we can only monitor that it is uninstalled. If there is a feature that can notify in the master dashboard that an agent has been uninstalled, it would be very beneficial.

Implements confidentiality principles effectively
Over the years, a lot has changed, so it is not that much at the moment. I know they are all working on changing the look and feel, the UI. It is always good to have a more modern look and feel than the old-school square blocks. Other than that, it's mainly support. Having someone within a region who understands the countries and how they approach data and information security is sometimes where the problem lies. It's not always the product.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Its most significant benefit to date is the speed with which it refreshes DNS records on the internet once you change it. If you are changing a website or registering a new record, it is very quick."
"The attacker won't have details since my public IP is anonymous. It offers us good privacy."
"It's very user-friendly."
"It is easier to configure and develop documentation to see how we have configured firewalls."
"The features of Cloudflare were found to be more beneficial and led to the decision to utilize it over other options."
"Smaller businesses have seen great ROI due to the low investment and strong performance."
"Cloudflare has many features."
"The DDoS protection is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The product's most valuable feature is its ability to support Linux operating systems."
"The console is friendly and it supports Mac."
"The core of its value lies in obtaining logs remotely and exercising control over what employees can or cannot use."
"The software is easy to use and the dashboard is intuitive."
"It also provides us with the ability to lock down a wide variety of USB devices, which is pretty important because we don't want certain data accessed. It does a really good job when it comes to the versatility of the exit points it supports, making sure that important data does not leave our organization."
"The most valuable feature is device control."
"Endpoint Protector's best features are its protection and user-friendliness."
"Netwrix Endpoint Protector works on Linux and macOS to block USB ports, control internet access, and manage other peripheral ports."
"Trellix can transfer the data through the cloud. The storage device control is an important feature."
"It is a very stable solution."
"Scalability is feasible since it's on-premises. It's easy to scale there."
"The tool has prebuilt templates for data classification. It is easier for customers to get started."
"Trellix DLP offers many features, using EDR, EPP, disk encryption, and other features."
"Trellix DLP helps handle false positives, but it depends on your configuration. It is quite overwhelming in terms of its dashboard."
"It prevents enterprises from installing external software and devices and can block specific network pathways."
"The solution involves implementing the confidentiality, utility, and availability principles."
 

Cons

"I believe they currently have this feature, but there will most likely be integration with APIs so we can control some features through API."
"We have noticed multiple instances where Cloudflare falsely indicates that our servers are down, even when there is no actual load on them. This makes it challenging for us to identify the exact issue."
"There should be a specific price list for enterprise-level customers."
"The product needs to improve its automation."
"The analytics, basically the dashboard, doesn't have much to it."
"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."
"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."
"Areas like how assessment, discovery, and payload are dealt with and how it all comes into your organization can be considered when trying to make suggestions to Cloudflare for improvements."
"In Linux, it is difficult to control uninstallation. Users can uninstall it at any time, and we can only monitor that it is uninstalled."
"We are currently facing an issue where it is blocking the Winman software, which is something that we don't want to happen because we use it in our accounts department to pay taxes."
"I would rate the role-based access features for administrators a six out of ten. There's work to be done on the granularity of roles that can be assigned to an administrator but there is role-based administrator access present. That's why it's not a zero rating."
"It needs to improve in terms of policy customization."
"The policy engine could use a bit of work. They're definitely going in the right direction. We've been working with them over the last few weeks to try and optimize that. But it's reasonably clear that they're just not putting as much effort into the policy engine as into other things, like content discovery."
"Currently, for additional applications that need monitoring by the EPP, a request must be made to their technical support. It would be beneficial to add a feature allowing users to manually add applications for monitoring without depending on the vendor."
"CoSoSys Endpoint Protector's network-level DLP and integration with mail servers need improvement."
"One of the areas where there is room for improvement is support. It takes time for them to respond. They need to respond on time. Instead of sending an email, I think it would be very helpful to say, 'Let's set up a WebEx to see what's really going on,' instead of the back and forth of email."
"The whole UI of the server console installed on the standalone computers is hefty."
"In future releases, I would like to see like to see encryption available on the cloud-based version."
"Virtualization is complex and requires proper training. However, once you get trained, it is a very good product."
"Trellix needs to improve customer support."
"The bugs need improvement."
"I would rate the solution seven out of ten based on my last experience within the last six months. It's a bit of a fallback, and I know they are working on improving scalability."
"Trellix is incompatible with Linux, and its DLP part is incompatible with Mac. Sometimes, it does not work on Windows, either."
"Having someone within a region who understands the countries and how they approach data and information security is sometimes where the problem lies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing is cheap."
"I believe their performance has improved, but I'd like to refrain from discussing the pricing aspect related to the cloud. The pricing, in my opinion, could be simplified, and I think they should consider reevaluating the pricing for support, as it can be quite high. At times, this cost can make it challenging to choose CARFAGuard or opt for the support."
"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."
"We are using the free version."
"The product's pricing is minimal compared to other products."
"The tool is a premium product, so it is very expensive."
"We are using the free tier of the solution."
"It's a premium model. You can start at zero and work your way up to the enterprise model, which has a very high pricing level."
"We found the pricing pretty attractive. However, volume-based pricing wasn't available."
"[The pricing] is reasonable compared to what's out there."
"The solution’s pricing is a normal industry standard and depends on customers and salespersons."
"The minimum number of licenses they sell is 50 or 150 users."
"When I last renewed the license it was for a two-year term, and they gave me the second year at half price."
"I don't have any issue with the licensing and pricing. I would love for it to be cheaper, but at the same time I'm getting a lot from it."
"The pricing is reasonable for this particular market."
"From what we've seen, their pricing is a lot lower than the other stuff we've looked at. I actually don't have any concerns with their pricing. They were probably the most reasonable company out there for the features that were offered. It was pretty straightforward in terms of licensing, and you just pay for the license."
"The pricing depends on the number of users in a company."
