  "verdict": "Cloudflare's Free plan is the most generous in the CDN industry, unlimited bandwidth, DDoS protection, and a global CDN at $0. The Pro plan at $20/domain/month is excellent value for small businesses needing WAF and image optimization. But Cloudflare's real revenue comes from its developer platform: Workers, R2, Pages, Stream, and Images are billed usage-based and can add up fast at scale. The key insight is that Cloudflare is two products, a CDN/security layer (simple per-domain pricing) and a developer platform (complex usage-based pricing). Most sites only need the first, and for that, Cloudflare is unbeatable on value.",
  "bestFor": "Any website needing a free CDN with unlimited bandwidth, the Free plan is genuinely best-in-class with no usage limits | Small businesses and blogs that want DDoS protection and SSL without paying anything | Developers building on Workers and R2 who want zero egress fees for object storage | E-commerce sites on the Pro plan that need WAF and image optimization at $20/month | Companies using Cloudflare as a full-stack platform (CDN + DNS + Workers + R2 + D1) to avoid multi-vendor complexity",
