Cloudflare offers CDN, protection from DDoS, dns resolution, and they are very good at all those stuff. They do not offer actual Web Hosting, you need a cloud server or hosting provider to host you site first, and then you can add it to CloudFlare content delivery network, which is in layman terms a copy of your site in every major region of the world, so that for example people (visitors) from Europe hit server in Frankfurt and people from America hit server in New York. That enables all users around the world to have low latency and high speed, something you would not have if the site was hosted on one server at one place in the world. User from far away would have higher latency in that case. Anyways, I digress...
I can recommend CloudFlare to everyone having a site that needs better performance and CDN.

I have been using Cloudflare for about 5 years now. They have a lot more competition now, but still offer a very good service. Great CDN and security solution in one. Really boots the speed of your site especially if you can use Railgun. You can't beat the set it and forget it nature of the WAF and DDOS protection. Only issue has become the cost of what they charge for some of the features now has made it not as good for small guys. They try to force you to use their KB for support but if you email them they usually get back to you within a day.
Cloudflare is too good when you are experiencing the slow loading speed of your website. They offer free CDN through which you can boost your website speed performance and security without paying anything. They do have a premium plan but that is not needed at all as in the basic free plan itself you can avail of many premium services like CDN, Flexible SSL, etc.
There are many other CDN providers like Stackpath (MaxCDN) but they are too expensive. So, without any hassle, you can go ahead with Cloudflare if you need a reliable CDN without spending any money on it.

I love Cloudflare services, they offer lots of value to online businesses. I no longer worry about attacks, no need for that with Cloudflare. They are the best CDN in the world. Highly recommended.

CloudFlare provides a reliable CDN service that will help your slow website faster and more optimized. When I changed my domain name DNS nameservers, they over offered quick service. Their customer support was helpful. Also, I don't have to worry about my sites being down or attacked with their DDoS protection. They offered a free plan, which is pretty outstanding but would recommend availing their premium plan since there are more helpful features.

Cloudflare doesn't receive nearly enough credit. This site is great for evading hackers. it hides your original IP and gives you the option to change the sites security. You are able to block all DDoS attacks. Cloudflare is also free to start, unlike other hosts who require payment upfront.

I've been using cloudflare for 3yrs now. Even though I have hosting somehwere else, I always point my dns to cloudflare as they have most secured service. Aside from that, they make my websites run faster than usual. My sites are secured from virus and hackers. I can't compare the price to other host as they offer different service. But i will be using cloudflare as long as my sites are running

I have been using Cloudflare for years for my websites and for my clients websites. I believe it is the best service to prevent DDoS and some other attacks today. The pricing varies depending on needs, however even the free plan can provide some security. Support is decent for enterprise customers. In the past couple of years there was just one major outage a couple of months ago. The UI is intuitive and in the Enterprise plan there is a possibility to ingest logs. It is difficult to list all the good things about Cloudflare in a couple of sentences. Caching, CDN, virtual patching, VPN-like services and a bunch of other innovations that are making the Internet faster, safer and better.

NO DOUBT that every website must be added to Cloudflare, it's really a must at least their free plan. All of my websites and my client's websites have been linked to Cloudflare to get more speed and security.
Cloudflare are a generally "free" service with some extra "Pro" features that come at a price - which are definitely worth it. They provide security, speed, and reliability service for websites hosted elsewhere - so be aware that they don't exactly provide hosting services but act as a "Content Delivery Network" to optimize your site's speed and security. I have noticed significant improvements when routing my sites through Cloudflare as their interface is extremely easy to use and understand. Their security services are also very good and provide good protection from DDOS, bot attacks, and more. Their speed features are also good and can be turned on and turned off at any time. Be aware however that some of the features which they release "in beta" should be used with caution. In my experience they can sometimes break how a site loads and cause other issues e.g. their Rocket Loader service. Overall I would recommend routing your site(s) through Cloudflare for speed and security; as you will definitely find an improvement in speed. They do however have limited support which in my experience is difficult to get in touch with.

Cloudflare is awesome and I use the free version of it on all my sites. It provides great security and increased speeds and I love how it integrated with most hosting providers so all you need to do is click enable and your done. Another thing I love about cloudflare is that you can use it to force SSL and hide your personal information.

Cloudflare is maybe the only service I have come across that offer free service and is actually free. Even though they have this free feature security level is still high. Speed is by far one of the best and their interface is user friendly. if your even paying for a plan its affordable.
Haven't worked with cloudflare in a while, but they were pretty easy to use once you get your bearings. They have great security features and seemed to be ahead of the curve on that one, but we don't have a ranking system for that in here, so I thought I'd add that.
They're a little expensive, but the speed and reliability makes up for that. I cannot speak to support as I did not work with them at all (definitely due to the reliability)

Where do I start.... I have been with CloudFlare for a couple of years now. I am mainly using their DNS and CDN services. I like that I can protect my account with 2-factor authentication, it's super userful these days.
DNS service is propagating fast. Well, it's quicker than anything I have used until now. CDN is making my sites to load extremely fast. Good job CloudFlare, I will defo stay with you as a Customer. Maybe they are a little slow on replying to support tickets but I was on their Free plan so I am not complaining at all.

We used this site to secure a client's site and it did the job. The site passed the Pen Tests and more. Great security solution.
SIMILAR
Check out companies here from the same country, with similar scores and customer numbers.
We highly recommend not to purchase the cheapest hosting package. Usually, they come with a row of issues: the server is often down, the hardware is outdated, lousy and slow support, registration and payment errors, etc.
For your convenience, we have created a tool that can help you to choose the right hosting package for you just by answering a few simple questions.
CMS is a content management system. A lot of hosting providers offer so-called CMS optimized packages. However, this is a marketing trick because most CMSs do not have special software or hosting requirements.
Bulletproof hosting - it’s a type of service that allows to host almost any type of content, even the restricted one (adult content, warez, spam etc). Bulletproof hosting providers do not remove your content in case someone reports an abuse.
Unlimited hosting - refers to companies that provide packages with unlimited disk space, bandwidth, number of domains, databases or email accounts, etc. This is usually a marketing trick but sometimes you can find something worth a try.
Secure hosting - it’s a type of service when the hosting provider is mostly responsible for the security of the user’s account: updates the software installed on their servers, provides an antivirus and malware scanner, firewalls and basic anti-DDoS protection, etc.
DDoS-protected hosting - companies that provide packages that include anti-DDoS protection. These packages are considerably more expensive than regular ones. Nevertheless, they’re totally worth their price because the company will ensure that your website is secured from cyber attacks.
The more comfortable the control panel is, the easier will it be for you to change the website and hosting account settings.
Most hosting providers that are in TOP20 in our rating offer user-friendly control panels, such as cPanel, Plesk or DirectAdmin. That’s why we recommend to pay attention to other, more important parameters, while choosing a hosting provider.
