Massive relief for our application server:

Because our website serves large files like media, audio recitations, and PDF documents, having Cloudflare’s CDN and smart tiered caching store and serve them directly from the edge means our origin server only handles essential backend logic. This keeps hosting costs low and ensures pages load instantly for visitors.

Smarter caching that doesn't break user logins or forms:

In dynamic web applications, caching can accidentally break things like login pages, CSRF tokens on forms, or live admin panels. Cloudflare’s rules made it simple to cache static assets aggressively (for 30 days) while automatically bypassing any protected paths (such as the admin panel, login screens, and form submissions).

Peace-of-mind security with zero extra maintenance:

It automatically shields our server by masking our real IP address, blocking malicious bots, and mitigating DDoS attacks before bad traffic ever reaches our infrastructure. We get robust enterprise security without needing to maintain complex firewalls ourselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
