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

"Generally, I am satisfied with this product."
"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare DNS is its global reach and it is always evolving."
"Smaller businesses have seen great ROI due to the low investment and strong performance."
"It's very user-friendly."
"The solution is stable, and the DNS servers are simple to use."
"From what I've seen so far, there are no negatives to report as of yet"
"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."
"It is a stable solution. I rate the stability a ten out of ten...I rate the scalability a ten out of ten."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Safetica ONE is simple."
"The current version of the solution is stable...It is easy to scale the solution."
"The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection."
"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 most valuable things about Safetica ONE are its comprehensive features, competitive pricing, and a strong focus on data security and compliance."
"The most valuable feature is the data classification."
"ESET Safetica is a cost-effective solution for customers who need a small quantity along with a competitive price."
"With SASE, we have a single platform that covers multiple task services with which we need to control access. All the features are equally valuable."
"The ZPA is a unique feature which offers VPN along with all the additional security needed."
"You can close your data protection gaps with Zscaler. You can quickly find all the classified, sensitive data across the cloud."
"Has a good zero trust feature."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The best feature is the ability to establish the connection between your public network and automatically connect to the intranet connection."
"The most valuable feature of Zscaler Private Access is we do not have to connect to a VPN, it is seamless. It is more convenient for us because we use one agent to cover the internet and VPN access."
"The most valuable features are the File Type Control and SSL bypass policies. We"
 

Cons

"Cloudflare does not have an on-premise solution. If they had different approaches they could be better suited to accommodate more customers, such as on-premise and hybrid deployments. For example, hybrid deployments would be useful where you could move the traffic from the enterprise to the cloud."
"For large enterprises, the pricing is okay. However, the enterprise price for small projects is a bit high. A mid-tier pricing option would be beneficial."
"It should confirm audit findings of the assigned area with auditees to ensure that the audit conclusions are based on an accurate understanding of the issues."
"The analytics, basically the dashboard, doesn't have much to it."
"There should be a specific price list for enterprise-level customers."
"An integrated SSO feature would be useful for Cloudflare DNS."
"If they improve on the placement of their data centers, it would be better. I'm living in a remote area. I would like to connect to them without any kind of lag."
"We are a product integrator and reseller, and we would like to have a better partner relationship, similar to a channel sales relationship. Sometimes we are on our own or get diverted by Cloudflare because they have direct sales, which competes with us and makes it difficult to build a relationship with this company since we want to be an MSP or a managed service provider for the solution."
"ESET Safetica’s stability could be improved."
"The product needs to improve support."
"This solution could be improved if it was available on Linux as well. Currently it can only be deployed on Mac and Windows."
"One area for improvement in Safetica is its firewall integration feature."
"There are some minor issues with the price and support of the solution that needs to 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."
"Safetica ONE fails to support Linux."
"The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection."
"While Zscaler supports client-initiated connections, it does not support server-initiated connections. This is a feature that Zscaler may consider adding in the future."
"Sometimes, support takes time since the solution has some bugs that need fixing."
"The stability could be improved."
"You won't find anything that can help you with the configuration part and other areas related to the product if you search for proper or exact details of Zscaler Cloud DLP online in very easy language."
"Zscaler CASB breaks down at times."
"Occasionally, issues arise in the LogStack by a third party, particularly for government websites accessed by numerous users."
"There could be additional ways to define proximity. Additionally, they should provide some exclusion options for specific policies and an ability to control the DLP engine."
"User management can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cloudflare's pricing is not much higher and is good for middle-level organizations."
"We are using the free version."
"The price of the solution is expensive."
"The product's pricing is cheap."
"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."
