CloudFlare DNS Service Comparison

More Advanced DNS Services Than CloudFlare
Constellix has more diverse load balancing options like weighted round robin and traffic optimization. Cloudflare also lacks the advanced GeoDNS features like GeoProximity and IP Filters.


DNS Outage Prevention
The Constellix suite of DNS management solutions creates an indestructible plan for ultimate brand security and 100% guaranteed uptime.


Uptime SLA Guarantee
If Cloudflare suffers any downtime they won't reimburse you for services lost during downtime... That happens ONLY if you are an Enterprise client. This is abnormal in the DNS industry, as most providers offer 100% uptime SLA’s for all membership levels. Every Constellix user is covered by the 500% back uptime SLA.

CloudFlare Enterprise Isn't Free

Cloudflare is renowned as a free CDN service that services and a huge portion of the Internet.
But, when it comes to DNS management, Cloudflare seems to only meet the industry standards for its
Enterprise plan. Which by the way, is more than $200 a month --we don’t know
the actual price because you need to talk to a sales associate to get a “custom”
quote, but their next highest plan costs $200 a month.
