I noticed many people using it, but really cloudflare customer support is non-existant, and many people complain about their service as well.

I have never used it, but I am curious, with so many bh people using it, maybe I am missing something here?
 
Its added protection against DDOS attacks, they have a CDN making your website faster, serve content via HTTP2, Free SSL, They allow you to run websites from 1 host with unique IPs...

It's a great tool but you don't NEED it.
 
Cloudflare provides security by protecting Internet properties from malicious activity like DDoS attacks, malicious bots, and other nefarious intrusions. And allows website owners to easily insert applications into their websites without needing to be a developer.

why he doesn't need it?
 
A lot of bh people use cloudflare because they think it shields their identities. While this is true it's not something that's 'bulletproof' as there is more and more pressure on CF to hand over information related to allegedly infringing users.
If you don't do streaming and anything related to breaking copyright laws you don't need it. Wordfence will do an excellent job of protecting your website including DDoS attacks.

Unless you are not committing any hate crime, CF will not bother revealing your host IP.
 
Cloudflare is for people with 0 (zero) IT knowledge. Sad, but true.
 
If you get DDOS attacks and you don't have $$ to move behind a CDN Cloudflare can help you keeping your website alive, but then again the free package can't be compared with the paid one.
 
it can protect more than attack and secured managed for websites . so lots of people using these cloudflare
 
First of all, it is very productive. If you want your website to be improved with some precautious you can use it
 
Its good for productivity, security and speed. You have all your sites in one places with dns, caching, ssl, simple analytics and ddos protection. Like others said, it also hides your ip address, but if you have multiple dmca requests you will get banned...
 
Not only due to security, Cloudflare has its traffic routed to its global network and gets gets better every time. Users take advantage of it for their sites.
