Our product uses Cloudflare as CDN and WAF. Overall, it provides a comprehensive solution that can effectively improve website performance and security.
1.Advantage:
Free: Cloudflare offers a free plan, which is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses like ours and personal websites. Despite being a free version, Cloudflare still offers many useful features, including basic CDN service and DDoS protection.
High performance: Cloudflare's globally distributed network can significantly reduce web page load times and improve user experience.
Maturity: As a leader in the market, Cloudflare’s technology is constantly updated and can respond quickly to emerging security threats and performance issues.
2.Shortcoming:
Complexity: Configuring and managing some of Cloudflare's advanced features can be difficult for users without a technical background.
Reliance on third parties: Using Cloudflare means hosting part of your website’s functionality on a third-party platform, which may bring privacy and data security concerns. Particularly with highly sensitive data, businesses need to carefully weigh the risks that come with this dependency.
