From the region I am in (Middle East) their 1.1.1.1 open DNS server not as fast as the 8.8.8.8 open DNS from Google, but faster than other providers.
The one recent feature which I think is a killer feature for smaller companies and individuals is the email routing service. Read their recent email below.
Why is this feature a killer feature you might ask? For the simple reason we can create multiple virtual email addresses and route them to a single email address without the need for a mail server (e.g. if you use Exchange you can create email aliases, but you need to have Exchange or similar mail server). This is especially useful to people like myself who have hundreds of accounts to manage with different cloud services and I am confident I am not something special or unique in this regard. See for yourself below what email routing looks like:
Lastly if you are developing Jamstack websites, Cloudflare is a solid option for deployment, not only for performance reasons, but also for everything else offered by them, infrastructure-related, which is as solid as the best out there.
