"What I like best about Cloudflare is that my company can use it to trace and manage applications and monitor traffic. The solution tells you if there's a spike in traffic. Cloudflare also sends you a link to check your equipment and deployment and track it through peering, so it's a valuable tool."
"The technical support is good."
"The solution is very good at mitigating threats."
"Cloudflare is a security SaaS provider that provides security and protects us from any application layer attack."
"The solution provides good load balancing and protection against DDoS attacks."
"I like Cloudflare's application gateway and DDoS protection."
"We're using dynamic components to build flexible pages to create and manage Git merge requests for code and reviews."
"The DDoS protection is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The perfect package for all security platforms, providing more than any other endpoint solution."
"I really like Trend Vision One - Cloud Security's dashboard."
"It has the best EDR functionality for cloud and typical endpoints."
"I like the conformity and workload security modules. Workload security is all about intrusion detection and prevention. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has behavioral rules that are auto-populated based on organizational structure. That's one aspect that we liked most."
"Virtual patching is one of the key features, which is executed with their IPS."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security's best features are security analysis, remote access security, and driver security."
"The product helps us understand our environment better."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security does not utilize a lot of resources which allows our users to keep working even during a scan."
"The product needs to improve its automation."
"If they improve on the placement of their data centers, it would be better. I'm living in a remote area. I would like to connect to them without any kind of lag."
"It should be easier to collect the logs with companies like Sumo. However, based on my discussions with the salespeople, I understand that's how they make their money. With the enterprise product, they want people doing those kinds of enterprise features to do the logging. They want them to pay a lot of money, and that's where I have an issue with them. That should be a default. You should be able to get the log no matter what. The logging should be universal."
"It should have easier documentation for the configuration. It's very technical and people who aren't technical should also be able to do the configuration."
"We are a product integrator and reseller, and we would like to have a better partner relationship, similar to a channel sales relationship. Sometimes we are on our own or get diverted by Cloudflare because they have direct sales, which competes with us and makes it difficult to build a relationship with this company since we want to be an MSP or a managed service provider for the solution."
"The reporting can definitely be improved to offer a lot more explanation on something that may have happened or has actually happened."
"Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to buy Cloudflare in my country."
"The timing aspect can lead to it being considered overpriced. This is a particular concern we have with Cloudflare, as they may struggle with accurately detecting the client."
"The initial setup is easy for someone who operates container platforms on a daily basis. However, it could be difficult for those coming purely from informational security or another field of an IT."
"The local agent should be able to show more logs. At present, the logs are only available from the web console and not from the local agent."
"The licensing model could be improved. To gain full coverage, you need to spend more to buy subscriptions for each kind of service they offer. It will start to be pricey if you want full coverage."
"The workbook insights generate a massive list, making it inconvenient to review."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security could improve connections with different types of authentication and user groups concerning cloud services."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security should address threats automatically without having user input."
"They should provide a way for users to see violations for specific compliance."
