Hi, I know CF doesn't have any bandwidth limits on the free plan. But I was wondering if I should upgrade from Free to Pro as I have customers complaining there about slow bandwidth throughput. Is there a chance that the upgrade routes the traffic "better" or the traffic is being "prioritized" during rush hours if I upgrade to Pro?
I know network latency / routing / bandwidth problems are hard to troubleshoot. So I'd be happy if someone with some background knwoledge could give me an "educated guess" if the plan adjustment has any influence of Cloudflare network performance
if your free site is slow, you are sure it isn't your origin server and especially if you have users in locations with more expensive bandwidth (asia, africa, south america) then trying out pro isn't the worst decision you could make. If you're fine paying for bandwidth you can also try argo smart routing which is expensive but very useful for this kind of optimisation
Hello! My websites and overall services are partially blocked or with degraded performance here in spain due to ISPs aplying blockings to prevent football piracy (they block completely or partially Cloudflare's IP).
If I switch to Cloudflare Pro plan, I'm going to get a different IP address?
Each plan can use different IP addresses but it is not definite that it will not also be used by the same services. I would reach out to the ISP and talk to them.
