If you use a lot of bandwidth a CF sales person contacts you and tells you it’s time to pay.
And it’s not cheap. More expensive than Fastly in our case (though we went with Google CDN and saved a bunch of money and got better performance).
- ericpauley 8y agoAny idea where this limit is? 1TB? 10? 100?
- chocolatkey 8y agoI run a site in cloudflare that's using a little over 2TB/mo (used to be more), and haven't received any email. Would be nice to know what this limit is so we're ready when the time comes
- jgrahamc 8y agoI'd love to know what site that was (jgc @ cloudflare . com) so that I can understand why we couldn't offer you a good deal. Also, we don't force people to pay. See my comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17639316 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17639316
- eastdakota 8y agoThis is not correct. While we’ll reach out heavy users to see if they’d like to upgrade to get all the benefits of our Enterprise accounts, if you don’t want to upgrade you can continue to use our base plans. If you ever hear otherwise from a person on our Sales team, please let me know directly because they are wrong and in violation of our explicit policies. My email: matthewatcloudflaredotcom.
- reitzensteinm 8y agoThis story plays out on HN like clockwork 1) Person A recommends CloudFlare as a CDN because it's really cheap 2) Person B warns that the were using CF in this manner and had their account closed 3) CF rep comes in to clarify that no such policy exists
