CloudFlare Alternatives?

[John Ceena]

Hi All,
Thanks for having me.
. I am currently using Cloudflare as a CDN for some of my projects and I´m having some issues with my hosting blocking Cloudflare´s IP´s (they are bad I know, I need to change provider, I know). My question to you experts is if there an alternative as good or even better. than Cloudflare for extra security and CDN.

Thank you!

Hello John,

There is a few out there the notable ones are Amazon Cloudfront, Sucuri and Fastly, although these tend to be paid.

@John Ceena What host does not to have bandwidth reduced and a free firewall against hackers?

You can also check google cloud CDN or cloudfront.

We use Cloudflare for this site and Google CDN for our core business. I personally think CF is a more complete solution.
If your provider is blocking (rate limiting) CF I think you will have the same issue with whoever you use. Does your provider know that CF has mods for servers such as Apache there can plug in? Is it viable for you to setup a VPS and manage the server yourself?

It may be an issue because someone is using a custom firewall that is not configured properly and it is causing false positives.

We have servers with Anti-DDoS from the OVH network and WAF/Malware Protection from Imunify360.

And yes, we use Cloudflare as it is the best and most complete like @Ozzy said.
