Cloudflare SSE & SASE Platform Reviews & Product Details

What I appreciate most about Cloudflare’s SSE and SASE platform is the way it streamlines security, making it both straightforward and efficient. Since everything operates on Cloudflare’s global network, users remain protected no matter where they are, and there’s no noticeable decrease in speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One aspect I find challenging about Cloudflare’s SSE and SASE platform is its initial complexity, particularly when configuring advanced policies or integrating with other systems. Additionally, since some features are still being developed, the documentation and support sometimes fall behind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cloudflare’s platform has truly simplified how we handle network security and access control. I love how seamlessly it integrates zero-trust security with performance optimization. The dashboard is intuitive, and policies can be deployed within minutes. The analytics and visibility it provides into user traffic are extremely helpful for proactive monitoring. It’s also impressive how stable and scalable the platform is perfect for growing teams or distributed workforces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only drawback I’ve noticed is that the initial setup can feel a bit technical for teams that are new to SASE concepts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best is how they are like the gate-keeper. Their interface is easy to use and understand. We've needed no customer support. Even with the firewall and security rules that can be implemented. The caching and speed tests are a bonus as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The limitations for the free plan. Don't get me wrong it's great as is, but wish there was more. Cloudflare's customer support isn't the greatest, but the community forums more than make up for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cloudflare One has impressed me as a comprehensive SASE solution that combines industry leadership with genuine developer-friendly features. As a recognized leader in multiple Gartner and IDC reports, the platform delivers enterprise-grade security without the typical complexity barriers.

The generous free tier supporting up to 50 users with full SASE capabilities is remarkable - complete ZTNA, SWG, and CASB functionality without artificial limitations. This removes the usual cost barrier for small teams and startups needing enterprise security.

Developer experience stands out through comprehensive APIs and the same programmable architecture developers know from Cloudflare’s other services. The unified control plane manages security policies alongside application delivery without vendor switching.

Performance leverages Cloudflare’s massive network footprint, they’re within 50ms of 95% of internet users and proxy 20% of web traffic. This translates to minimal latency impact when routing through their security stack, crucial for maintaining developer productivity.

The unified architecture runs the complete security stack on every point of presence across 300 cities globally. Unlike competitors who stitch together acquired solutions, this homegrown approach ensures consistent performance and seamless integration between all SASE components.

Technical capabilities include remote browser isolation, certificate-based mTLS for IoT devices, comprehensive logging with SIEM integration, and strong API security support for modern cloud-native architectures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The learning curve can be steep when transitioning from traditional network security to Zero Trust architecture. While documentation is extensive, the platform’s breadth requires time to understand optimal configuration patterns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Seamless integration of performance, security, and visibility within a single platform. Cloudflare offers a unified dashboard that makes it incredibly easy to manage multiple services — from DNS and Zero Trust access policies to DDoS protection and web traffic filtering.

Some advanced configurations can have a steep learning curve, especially when combining multiple products like Zero Trust policies, Gateway rules, and Access applications.

The documentation, can sometimes be fragmented across different products, making it difficult to find end-to-end guidance for complex use cases Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
