What their customers say

Quotes from people at Cloudflare's customers.

“NCR operates in a highly-regulated environment, and we have worked with Cloudflare to develop an innovative way to protect our servers at the highest levels while meeting industry compliance mandates,”

Kumar · NCR

“If a customer gets impacted, we provide the initial brute-force protection at no charge for several weeks,” says Kumar. “After seeing the additional insights, customers can opt to continue on with the premium service.”

Kumar · NCR

“Hackers are always trying to bypass protections and Cloudflare continues to step up,”

Kumar · NCR

“Cloudflare was really attractive because it provides really sophisticated controls against attacks but does so in the cloud,” says Bob Varnadoe, CISO at NCR. “The security team isn’t responsible for managing infrastructure, so they are able to focus on doing higher value security work.”

Bob Varnadoe · CISO at NCR · NCR

“Cloudflare was probably one of the easiest decisions we’ve ever made. Cloudflare has created a lot of value very quickly for our organization.”

“We use all of the Cloudflare web application firewall-specific functionality in order just to make sure that our customers' data has an extra level of security outside of what we build into the application.”

“Cloudflare is remarkably supportive, and we share a similar mindset — as a partner, they consider our success their own,”

Gauri Kanekar · Vice President of Engineering · Nasadiya Technologies

“Cloudflare Workers has been critical to our mobile application development, simplifying our processes and allowing our team members to work independently without issues,”

Gauri Kanekar · Vice President of Engineering · Nasadiya Technologies

“By substantially improving the delivery speed of our text, image, and audio assets, Cloudflare has allowed us to ensure our global users enjoy a frictionless reading experience as we expand our products into international markets.”

Gauri Kanekar · Vice President of Engineering · Nasadiya Technologies

“All of our feedback has been positive, both in India and internationally,”

Gauri Kanekar · Vice President of Engineering · Nasadiya Technologies

“Out of the box, in its default configuration, Cloudflare takes care of 95% of our issues with untrusted bots,”

Gauri Kanekar · Vice President of Engineering · Nasadiya Technologies

“Cloudflare gives us precisely that. It supplies the tools we need to ensure the safety and reliability of our online services while allowing us to stay focused on long-term business objectives.”

Gauri Kanekar · Vice President of Engineering · Nasadiya Technologies

“With a single connectivity cloud platform, Cloudflare simplifies security and performance management, providing emerging startups with the time and peace of mind to concentrate on business growth.”

“Over time, we gained a lot of confidence in Cloudflare’s solutions, and we’re looking to migrate this domain to a full setup going forward,”

Gabriel Balastegui · Naranja

“We value the visibility and threat mitigation that Cloudflare provides. The user interface is very user-friendly. We have WAF turned on at a very high level and are using most of the features of the firewall rules. We use them quite a bit for geo-blocking, so that we can block traffic from countries that do not have AWS instances. It’s been extremely useful in finding issues at the app level, which allows us to modify the code and mitigate them.”

Naranja

“Cloudflare is our first line of security perimeter defense. They’re a key partner that allows Naranja to run workloads in the cloud of our choice, as we see best.”

“Namely has had a good experience with Cloudflare. The solution is a very good value in terms of the amount of risk it mitigates to the dollars it costs. On top of that, it does its thing while requiring very little of our time and energy to maintain.”

Rob Hooper · senior manager of IT in Security · Namely

“This allows us to better secure inboxes without having the employees needing to know anything about Cloudflare or change their email habits in any way. As a result, our user-reported phishing investigations were cut by at least half.”

“When we provided input or requested functional improvements, It surprised me how rapidly Cloudflare incorporated those changes and confirmed new features. That high level of customer service is one reason we intend to continue partnering with Cloudflare as our products evolve.”

Takahiro Maeda · Mynet

“Cloudflare has streamlined how we implement access controls across the organization. The time and money we save goes to further improving our services.”

“That fixed it,” Al Shafei says. “After we moved onto Cloudflare, our site reliability was restored. Without Galileo, we’d have to invest a lot of money into getting the same kind of protection. We’re a non-profit with very limited resources and we need to invest them wisely. For us to be able to get this level of protection from Cloudflare for free — it’s a huge help.”

Al Shafei · Majal

“As creators of these platforms, we’re responsible for the safety of the people using them. We can’t say, ‘oh we’re just volunteers so we’re not going to worry about security’ — we’d rather offer no platform than one whose development is half-baked. We invest in things like development, security, and systems administration because we always want to be able to tell users that we’re doing everything we can to protect them from abuse and the prying eyes of surveillance technologies.”

“We have really developed a trusting relationship with Cloudflare over the years, especially on security issues. We have always had access to experts in the latest technologies, who really seek to help us by always putting themselves in our shoes to better understand our problems. As a customer, a supplier who is that attentive to our needs is absolutely invaluable,”

Jonathan Lefèbvre · OpenClassrooms

Lefèbvre · OpenClassrooms

“Today, Cloudflare protects all of our internal applications,”

Lefèbvre · OpenClassrooms

“It is our reputation that is at stake, so it is fundamental for the development of the company that we have a partner like Cloudflare that helps us stay compliant,”

Jonathan Lefèbvre · OpenClassrooms

Jonathan Lefèbvre · OpenClassrooms

Jonathan Lefèbvre · VP of Business Technology · OpenClassrooms

“We are long-standing customers of Cloudflare,”

Jonathan Lefèbvre · VP of Business Technology · OpenClassrooms

“Today, Cloudflare protects our entire platform, including our test sites. Cloudflare Access was the most obvious choice, because it was simpler and integrated perfectly with the rest of our toolset, especially since Cloudflare was also able to integrate with our identity provider, which was crucial for us.”
