Cloudflare has the best pricing option for any size of the project and morevoer, you can also use the free versiont to secure the website from DDOS attack without any manual work loads
What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Also building any application and protection rules from Cloudflare is easier where by you can easily block an IP address from accessing the website
