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.

Comes with data leak protection features but technical support is too slow
We use the solution for endpoints.  The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection.  Safetica ONE's technical support is too slow.  I have been using the product for six months.  I rate the product's stability a nine out of ten.  I rate Safetica ONE's scalability a five out of…

Cloud-based platform simplifies device and data center management
I find it to be good. The solution is cloud-based with the latest inspection engines, which I find to be amazing. We are less dependent on data centers and device management, which reduces our efforts significantly. It improves our device management, data center management, and updating devices. We need fewer engineers for this management, and it reduces time and efforts for data center management, device upgrades, and IT support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's very user-friendly."
"Centralized, full-featured DNS."
"It is a fast and secure DNS."
"The web application firewall brought us good security and a view of the accesses/blocks of the entire domain and subdomain that were accessed both by region (country) and IPs."
"I like Cloudflare's application gateway and DDoS protection."
"The solution is very good at mitigating threats."
"The UI is good."
"From what I've seen so far, there are no negatives to report as of yet"
"ESET Safetica is a cost-effective solution for customers who need a small quantity along with a competitive price."
"Safetica ONE is easy to use and set up. We can set up rules and policies quickly."
"When you subscribe to the DLP, the system manages and protects your files well from the cloud."
"The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection."
"The current version of the solution is stable...It is easy to scale the solution."
"The most valuable things about Safetica ONE are its comprehensive features, competitive pricing, and a strong focus on data security and compliance."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Safetica ONE is simple."
"The most valuable feature is the data classification."
"The solution is cloud-based with the latest inspection engines, which I find to be amazing."
"I like the web filtering capabilities."
"The initial setup is easy."
"I find all Zscaler Private Access features valuable because each replaces flawed technologies, such as EPAs being replacements for VPN and PR as a replacement for PAM, so I can't mention only one valuable feature. Overall, Zscaler Private Access is a good solution."
"It is a stable solution."
"We don't need to connect anymore. It is automatically connected when you log on in Windows."
"The best feature is the ability to establish the connection between your public network and automatically connect to the intranet connection."
"Zscaler CASB's latency and architecture are excellent."
 

Cons

"The analytics, basically the dashboard, doesn't have much to it."
"There might be helpful if there was some web application firewall feature."
"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."
"The reporting can definitely be improved to offer a lot more explanation on something that may have happened or has actually happened."
"Cloudflare could offer a better view or maybe dashboards of the main resources used in the client."
"Cloudflare could be improved by introducing a mid-tier pricing option."
"There could be more courses with engineers. I like e-learning, however, having a specialist in a classroom is more comfortable for me."
"An integrated SSO feature would be useful for Cloudflare DNS."
"Safetica ONE fails to support Linux."
"ESET Safetica’s stability could be improved."
"Safetica One has every other thing that you need, so I cannot give Safetica NXT a higher mark because it does not have the full features of the enterprise solutions."
"There are some minor issues with the price and support of the solution that needs to be improved."
"This solution could be improved if it was available on Linux as well. Currently it can only be deployed on Mac and Windows."
"The product needs to improve support."
"One area for improvement in Safetica is its firewall integration feature."
"The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection."
"Zscaler Private Access needs to improve its collaboration with applications without compromising security."
"Conflicts arise if you do not have the same management teams on the product."
"Zscaler CASB should include integrations with other SaaS applications."
"Occasionally, issues arise in the LogStack by a third party, particularly for government websites accessed by numerous users."
"We'd like to have two-factor authentication that is quite simple."
"In the next release, I would like to see RE2 Regex supported."
"We have issues with the tool's maintenance and networking. It should be able to work in offline mode as well."
"The DX layer could be better if it had improved visibility."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In terms of licensing costs, we don't pay for licensing for Cloudflare. We only establish communication, then for peering, Cloudflare takes care of the cross-connection in different data centers."
"I give the price a five out of ten."
"The price of the solution is expensive."
"For Cloudflare, I recommend it heavily for small businesses with revenue under a couple of million dollars. Onboarding is easy, and they even have a free plan. This makes it simple for businesses in the $100,000-$500,000 range to try it out and see its value, allowing them to scale up their infrastructure as needed."
"When you compare Cloudflare DNS to other solutions, such as Akamai, the price is reasonable."
"The product's pricing is minimal compared to other products."
"I think the pricing is competitive. I think as far as licensing is concerned it's pretty straightforward because it's based on domain. It's just that sometimes domains could be tricky with some customers."
"The product's pricing is cheap."
"The licensing cost for this solution depends on the deal size and your use case. In our instance, it costs $35 per user per year. This is a reasonable price."
"The pricing for ESET Safetica is less as compared to other solutions. The customers have to pay only for the license."
"Customers need to pay for a yearly license per device."
"Safetica ONE is expensive."
"The product is a little more expensive than other tools."
"It is an auto-renewal subscription service."
"The price is competitive."
"The solution is expensive."
"The product has reasonable pricing."
"The solution has increased prices this year."
"Zscaler Cloud DLP is moderately priced. We pay around 2 million rupees per year."
"It has been relatively reasonable for what it does. Some of the additional license costs based on the advanced next-generation firewall functions are quite high, and they should have certain features ready and available as a baseline rather than having to purchase additional licenses for it. Overall, the cost seems reasonable."
