I use Cloudflare Application Security and Performance to protect and speed up websites. What I like most about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance is how it handles security and speed together. The DDoS protection and firewall work really well in the background. The CDN makes the website load faster without much manual work, saving a lot of time and giving peace of mind. The DDoS protection blocks sudden fake traffic effectively, the firewall filters out suspicious requests with ease, and the CDN serves content from nearby servers, improving loading speed. It also works smoothly with other tools like web hosting services, CMS like WordPress, and GitHub for deployment, adding an extra layer of security and performance on top of the existing setup. After moving to Cloudflare, things became more stable, faster, and easier to manage. The initial setup was fairly easy and manageable even without deep expertise.

Some settings are a bit confusing at first, especially the security rules and firewall options. For beginners, it takes some time to understand what to enable and what not. Also, advanced features are locked behind paid plans, which can be limiting sometimes. The learning curve could be smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Cloudflare Application Security and Performance to provide a very positive experience with a strong combination of security, performance, and optimization. It's easy to use, suitable for both small applications and large enterprise workloads. The platform helps protect applications from common web threats and improves speed and response time. I like the strong security features like the web application firewall with managed and custom rules and effective protection against bot attacks. Its easy integration with SSL and TLS, zero trust, and limiting options is great. The global CDN and smart caching significantly improve load times, and the ability to block malicious IPs and URLs helps secure our business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think there could be improvements in securing our web server's performance to keep clients happy. I mentioned issues with sudden attacks impacting performance and the need for a utilization indicator to manage that. Scanning and blocking malicious traffic based on IPs should be more efficient. Protecting against Trojans and malicious signatures can be daunting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love using Cloudflare Application Security and Performance because it makes setting things up so easy. It works reliably, and I've noticed an instant improvement in both protection and page speed for our web apps. I find it valuable that we can deploy it quickly without heavy engineering efforts, and it runs with minimal maintenance. Also, it is effective at stopping malicious traffic, like bots and DDoS attacks, before they even reach our servers, and it speeds up our application globally using CDN caching and smart routing.

Some WAF rules and bot management settings are hard to set up and have a steep learning curve. The pricing versus feature section is also confusing. Pricing should have a clear picture of what tier solves what problems, like a map that says 'if you have this problem, refer to this.' Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cloudflare has a great team that is when ever there was a downfall , it didn't affect our publishers directly and came back soon. The kind of insights we get from the dashboard is crazy which helps build trust with our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cloudflare provides an immediate improvement in both speed and security. The CDN and caching features noticeably accelerate my WordPress website, which is particularly beneficial for mobile visitors. I also appreciate how effortlessly it manages SSL certificates, DDoS protection, and the Web Application Firewall (WAF), all accessible through a single, intuitive dashboard. It does a great job controlling bot traffic and LLM scraping, and the analytics panel offers comprehensive insights that help me monitor performance enhancements as they happen.

The learning curve is steep for beginners, and bot protection can trigger CAPTCHA for legitimate users. Support on lower tiers is limited with slow response times. Configuring advanced firewall rules and page rules can be overwhelming without proper documentation or guidance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Cloudflare is the seamless combination of instant performance and roc-solid DDoS protection out of the box. Was easy to set-up and we didn't have to touch our core infrastructure to get it all to work. The User Interface is also easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The steep jump between Business and Enterprise tiers can be frustrating when you only need one advanced feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to combine security and performance in a single platform. The Web Application Firewall (WAF), DDoS protection, CDN, and caching features help keep applications secure while improving page load times and overall reliability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside is that some of the more advanced security and performance features are only available on higher-tier plans Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cloudflare makes it incredibly easy to improve both performance and security with minimal setup effort. The WAF rules, bot protection, and DDoS mitigation are reliable and rarely need manual tuning. I also appreciate the built-in CDN and caching features — they noticeably reduce latency and make site delivery smoother. The analytics dashboard is clear and real-time visibility is great for troubleshooting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some advanced configuration options (especially for workers and edge rules) can be confusing at first, and documentation sometimes assumes you’re already technical. Pricing for higher-tier security and traffic limits can escalate quickly if your usage grows suddenly. Apart from that, the platform has been stable overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
