Overall experience was okay, but often frustrating.

Cloudflare slowed down my sites and caused problems.

Also it has some free tools/apps which you can integrate them inside your website without uploading or pasting files & codes.

It is an amazing tool I would recommend to everyone working on websites who needs a good cache system.

Sometimes I come across websites that use Cloudflare, and when I see this error, it brings back bad memories.

Both work wonders in improving your website speed, which Google rewards with better positioning, and customers reward with longer retention. The best part - basic features are free to use.

A quality Content Delivery Network CDN at super affordable prices.

Overall, my favorite feature are the email alerts for when a domain's nameservers no longer point to Cloudflare. That allows us to provide invaluable customer service for our own clients.

The analytics in Cloudflare is not satisfying as it does not show data in detail. Traffic records that the Cloudflare supply is very inadequate.

I loved the fact that it was free. I loved the fact that they solved a problem for me with GoDaddy making things super difficult (as they do).

Cloudflare is the CDN I like and use for many websites I own, create or manage. Free or low cost, it is effective and reliable.

Inability to change CDN IPs without removing the domain and adding it again.

I dislike how confusing the pricing is. I wish it was more transparent.

Great WAF, nice bot mitigation and education. Good for cloud-first companies.

Increased security and greater availability, awesome service for personal projects and enterprise products alike.

We found Cloudflare to be the best, in terms of ease of setup, zero cost and realized almost instant improvement in page load times.

Adds quality to website responsiveness. Great and responsive customer support.

This is a very basic and necessary feature. To upload custom SSL you need to purchase an enterprise plan with a $200/month rental, which is quite costly.

I HATE, yes - absolutely hate the constant interruptions, pop-ups, non-interesting information and idiotic colors that are EXTREMELY annoying.

Great network traffic visibility at a reasonable price.

Glasswire is very user-friendly and very powerful. At the same time it can be used by anyone due to the super simple and neat user interface.

In previous versions I could block any app on the firewall of GlassWire, but lately I noticed that this option is not available anymore and it requires an upgrade.

Upgrades and new development are constant and are provided as part of the one time cost. There are no comparable tools at this usability level -- price/performance is outstanding.

But those are in no ways a reason to look somewhere else.

Well i like the ease of Installation on our Servers.

This product is great for seeing who (program) is using network and when.

We already have too many interruptions in life.

But it will be very bad if they record our browsing history and logins. Which they say they don't but real truth will come forward in time.

The UI and easy of use together with the easy to read information provided makes this app one of its kind. Seeing how my internet usage is being distributed really helped me take better decisions.

I now remember why I had GlassWire before and why I eventually cancelled it.

Ease of use when a problem can up. Good to be able to expand to see what exactlyis going on.

Simple- one effective pane of glass to see what is really happening. Love the Virus total integration.

Its performance and functionality makes it compare with solutions that integrate everything.

This product is easy to use and provides great visual cues for what traffic is going to and from your computer. If you need to know what is happening, this tool is great for that.

The Overall Experience is awesome and glasswire is the application that i kept in my auto start-up when my computer starts.

I would rather just pay for a pro version and get all the features but it is most accessible to others at the different price points.

GlassWire is a network monitoring and security solution with a built-in firewall. It provides features such as internet security, bandwidth usage monitoring, remote server monitoring and internet privacy protection.


The network monitoring module allows administrators to monitor current and past network activity by traffic type, application and user’s geographic, all of which are displayed in graphs. Administrators can click the graph to see application details or network events, such as spikes in network activity.


GlassWire monitors threats, network system file changes, application changes, ARP spoofing, DNS changes and alerts administrators to various problems. The firewall reveals network activities so that administrators can see what current and past servers their computer is communicating with and can block potential threats. GlassWire’s usage tab lets users check how much bandwidth is being used to help maintain hosting limits.


Pricing is per license. Support is offered through an online knowledge base.
