We Invited Our Customers to a Cloudflare Beta Test. Here is What They Had to Say.
“Cloudways has made it possible to effortlessly activate Enterprise-grade security and performance on a per-application basis at a fraction of the cost. With their Cloudflare partnership and already top-tier support, our clients can rest easy knowing that we’ve got their back.”
Elliott Mangham
Founder & Director, Code Resolution
“The new Cloudflare integration in Cloudways has been a literal joy to work with. Previously I would have had to setup Cloudflare, calibrate all the settings, and then flush a bunch of caches to get things to work. Now it speeds up my process of adding a new site to Cloudways considerably while using the Cloudflare CDN. Very slick and easy to use from a web developer point of view!”
Daniel Schutzsmith
WP Developer’s Toolbox
“I’ve been using Cloudways’ hosting and Cloudflare in tandem from the word “go.” With their new Enterprise Integration, the set-up couldn’t be more straightforward. New and previously connected properties can be set up and functional within minutes. Though this may not be the solution for those looking for an entirely ‘hands-on’ approach, those who aren’t interested in configuring every tiny detail simply want something that just works and takes little to no time to set up—the Cloudflare Enterprise add-on is well worth a look!”

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Cloudflare a hosting provider?
No, Cloudflare isn’t a hosting provider. It’s a global Content Delivery Network (CDN) and security platform that works with your existing hosting like Cloudways to improve speed, reliability, and protection. Cloudways integrates Cloudflare Enterprise directly into its platform, combining state of the art hosting infrastructure with Cloudflare’s performance and security features.
Why is Cloudflare blocking me when accessing my website on Cloudways?
Cloudflare may temporarily block access to your website if its security filters detect uneven activity or potential threats. This isn’t a hosting issue, it’s Cloudflare’s Web Application Firewall (WAF) protecting your application from suspicious activities. If you’re using Cloudflare through Cloudways, you can review your firewall events or whitelist your IP address directly from the Cloudways platform to resolve the issue.
What is Cloudflare, and how does it benefit my website?
Cloudflare is a global network of servers that acts as a middleman between your website and visitors. It improves website performance, security, and reliability by caching content, optimizing images, and protecting against threats.
What features does Cloudflare provide with Cloudways?
When used with Cloudways, Cloudflare provides features like content delivery networks (CDNs), web application firewalls (WAFs), and DDoS protection. This means your website loads faster, is more secure, and can handle increased traffic.
Can’t I use the free version with Cloudflare APO to get similar performance upgrades?
Cloudflare Free + APO is a good alternative on any other hosting provider. However, with the Cloudways Cloudflare Enterprise Add-on, you get so much more for $4.99/domain.
Not only do you get premium features like Argo Smart Routing & tiered caching that drastically speed up your website. You also get much more robust security with DDoS mitigation at layers 3, 4 ,& 7, managed WAF & Global Rate limiting.
What is Cloudflare’s Edge Page Caching and how does it help speed up my website?
Edge Page Caching drastically speeds up user websites by caching the entirety of your web page at Cloudflare’s edge servers in 275+ POPs worldwide. The page is then loaded from the cache and delivered immediately to any users requesting the web page from the edge server nearest to the user resulting in lightening fast load times.
I use the free Cloudflare CDN, why should I pay for Enterprise?
Cloudflare Free is an amazing solution for smaller websites. However, businesses with serious traffic and revenue goals typically need extra performance and security.
Packed to the brim with powerful optimization, performance, and security features, the Cloudflare Enterprise add-on is for website owners seeking to grow their audience, improve their user experience, increase their revenues, & keep their websites and users safe from malicious actors.
I have a small website. Is Cloudflare Enterprise for me?
Cloudflare Enterprise is for all website owners looking to grow their audience and improve the performance and security of their websites.
Not only does it cache and serve your content faster to improve your SEO and Google ranking, it also seamlessly optimizes images, compresses files, and improves user image performance on a mobile connection.
At the same time, hacker attacks are blocked by an intelligent firewall that updates itself to deal with the latest threats and includes rulesets specifically for WordPress and Magento. Finally, DDoS attacks are mitigated within 3 seconds, so your website will always be available. It's a no-brainer!
Can I use a different CDN?
Sure! At Cloudways we’re all about freedom of choice. Cloudflare Enterprise is an optional add-on that you can activate whenever you are ready per application. Alternatively you can use your own CDN, or maintain a separate account on another CDN provider and connect it via our platform with a little manual work. Follow the instructions in our detailed knowledge article.
I host multiple websites. How much will it cost me?
Digital agencies and developers are benefiting from volume discounts already from their 5th domain! The starting price is $4.99, but as soon as you activate the add-on for 5 domains, the price drops to $3.99 per domain for all of them. Let’s say you want to activate it for 27 domains. Your price will then drop to $1.99 per domain. This is the best value for money you can find at the moment.
I have a WordPress site. Is it compatible with Breeze and my other plugins?
Yes. We are compatible with Breeze and most of the known plugins in the market. However, if you already use the free Cloudflare CDN, you should deactivate proxy mode to disable it. If you use any other CDN, you must deactivate it from Breeze settings.
It is not mandatory to deactivate any other security plugins. Cloudflare Enterprise intelligently identifies & blocks attackers and emerging threats at the edge before they reach your server. This allows you to deactivate related security plugins if you want to save some bandwidth and money per month on your hosting for WordPress.
