Dmarcian offers a robust and focused DMARC reporting platform. Its core strength lies in providing detailed insights into email authentication, helping us understand sources, identify threats, and achieve DMARC enforcement efficiently. We appreciate its granular data visualization and automatic subdomain detection.
It goes beyond basic reporting, offering features like RUF (Forensic Report Processing) which provides more specific details about authentication failures, aiding in quicker forensic analysis. Its dedicated DMARC focus means every feature is geared towards comprehensive email authentication management.
Cloudflare's DMARC Management is an addition to its extensive suite of web security and performance products. For those already leveraging Cloudflare for DNS, WAF, or CDN, integrating DMARC management feels like a natural extension, offering a unified dashboard for multiple security layers.
While its DMARC features are comprehensive enough for most, they are part of a broader ecosystem. It provides the necessary DMARC reports and insights, but its true value often comes from how it interlocks with Cloudflare's other offerings, allowing for consolidated security management.

User experience

Dmarcian presents a dashboard specifically designed for DMARC reporting, making it intuitive for those focused solely on email authentication. The visualizations are clear, and filtering options are powerful, allowing us to drill down into specific data points with ease. We found the initial setup straightforward.
While functional, the interface might feel less modern compared to some newer platforms. However, its strength lies in its specialized approach, where every component serves a direct purpose in DMARC implementation and monitoring, reducing unnecessary clutter.
Cloudflare's DMARC management integrates seamlessly into its existing dashboard. For current Cloudflare users, this provides a familiar environment and a cohesive experience across their security stack. The interface is clean and generally easy to navigate, especially for those accustomed to the Cloudflare UI.
However, for new users or those primarily interested only in DMARC, the broader Cloudflare dashboard might present a steeper learning curve due to the sheer volume of features. Locating specific DMARC settings can sometimes require a few extra clicks within the extensive menu structure.
Which product has the best support

Support

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Dmarcian offers dedicated support with expertise specifically in DMARC, SPF, and DKIM. We found their team to be responsive and highly knowledgeable, providing clear guidance on complex authentication issues. Their focused nature means we're often speaking directly with DMARC specialists.
Support tiers may vary by plan, but the quality of assistance for core DMARC challenges is consistently high. They are well-equipped to assist with advanced configurations and troubleshooting unique deliverability scenarios.
Cloudflare's support structure is comprehensive but often tiered, with faster response times and more in-depth assistance reserved for higher-tier (business and enterprise) plans. While their general support is broad, specific DMARC inquiries might be routed through general web security channels.
For free and lower-tier users, community forums and extensive documentation are the primary resources. While these are valuable, direct, timely support for critical DMARC issues can sometimes be a challenge if not on a paid plan with higher support SLAs. Several reviews highlight support challenges.
Who should use each product

Suitability

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Dmarcian is ideal for organizations of all sizes, from SMBs to enterprises, that require a dedicated, deep-dive DMARC solution. Its detailed reporting and forensic analysis capabilities make it particularly suitable for those with complex email environments or strict compliance requirements.
MSPs will find its multi-tenancy features and granular controls beneficial for managing multiple client domains efficiently. We recommend Dmarcian for anyone prioritizing email authentication as a standalone security pillar, wanting specialized expertise and detailed insights.
Cloudflare's DMARC Management is best suited for organizations already utilizing or planning to use Cloudflare's broader suite of web security and performance services. It offers seamless integration for SMBs, mid-market, and enterprise customers looking to consolidate their security stack.
While its DMARC capabilities are good, its strength is in being part of a larger ecosystem. MSPs managing client websites via Cloudflare may find this integrated approach appealing, though a dedicated DMARC solution might offer more specialized insights if email deliverability is the sole focus.

Drawbacks and what to watch out for

When considering Dmarcian, the primary drawbacks we encountered were related to its pricing for smaller organizations, which can feel substantial if you are only monitoring a few domains with moderate email volume. Additionally, while its DMARC features are top-notch, it doesn't offer the broader web security integrations found in platforms like Cloudflare.Cloudflare's DMARC Management, being in beta, still has room to grow into a fully mature product. Its main challenges stem from support for non-enterprise users and, as highlighted in G2 reviews, occasional billing complexities or unresponsive support for general Cloudflare services. The DMARC solution, while integrated, might also lack the specialized depth of a dedicated DMARC-only platform.
We have pulled the average ratings from G2 for each product, and also included the most recent negative reviews for each product in full. Positive reviews tend to have less detail and have a higher chance of being fraudulent, so negative reviews are a better signal for your decision.

The security of emails made difficult
What do you like best about dmarcian? Its operation, to its responses dmarcian has obstructed my expectations. It has not simplified my experience with email authentication. Made my job hectic. The less user friendly interface makes navigating tough. What do you dislike about dmarcian? There are concerns about its effectiveness in solving email scams and spoofing attempts. The system does not fully. Prevent emails, which leave businesses vulnerable to attacks. It also lacks comprehensive and detailed activity logs making it difficult to monitor and investigate security breaches. What problems is dmarcian solving and how is that benefiting you? dmarcian is a poor tool when it comes to preventing activities that harm businesses. Its worst technology does not simply work for individuals. Improvements need to be made to increase the interface and user experience for navigation and management of security settings.

Horrible Support and Billing - They run with your money and don't care to get billing correct
What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? Ease of deployment, dashboard and configurations for the WAF, Cache, and other features are top tier with ease, settings, and logging. Just don't have an issue with them or you're on your own. Also, don't keep a credit card on file or they'll bill you for their mistakes. What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? Customer support and billing. Their support does not read what you have to say but rather comes in with their own interpretation of what has happened and forces their views on your issue rather than trying to understand exactly what is happening. On two occassions in the last few months I have had this happen when I encountered an issue with the core product and their billing. The billing should be detailed further as it is sketchy business practices. Back in April they changed their billing software and charged me incorrectly for a month as it included the previous month as well (which I already paid). I brought this to their attention and the billing support assured me that it was not a problem. Come last week, they limited my account as I "had unpaid biling" so I contacted them again and brought attention to this wrong invoice that they never corrected. Come yesterday, they just charged my credit card on file without my authorization or explanination of what is going on. I've replied to the open ticket and created a new ticket and no one is answering. I don't want to be a drama case but this is ridiculous to have been charged something from months ago and not be given an explanation. What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you? Improve the security and performance of our websites/applications. Their configurable/customizable WAF, CDN/Caching, bot mitigation, and DDoS protection accomplish this for our websites/applications.

One of the best email security software
What do you like best about dmarcian? The best part about using dmarcian is it keeps our domain name safe from all the nonsense out there in terms of phishing, spam, fraud and its plans are competitive in nature which is why we don't need to shell out a big chunk of money to protect our domain. What do you dislike about dmarcian? The downside of using dmarcian is its API Integration, which has many flaws, which is why it gets really difficult to integrate it with our servers and this is where we would like to see an improvement. What problems is dmarcian solving and how is that benefiting you? Today, keeping domain safe is one big challenge and along with it, the activity log of your domain is critical; this is where dmarcian comes in and helps us keep everything secure and uptight.

Support very unresponsive. Not understanding P1 urgency. Delayed project 3 whole days.
What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? The website is intuitive, implementation steps are straightforward. It has numerous features, and they are indeed needed by a web app. What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? If your implementation goes well, it's fine. However, if you are in trouble, the support doc is useless. You pay for the pro plan to try to get some technician support. No one cares about your business or service, even if you identify it as a P1 urgency. My project was down and could not get anyone to help me when I identified it as a high-impact ticket. What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you? The ticket support system is horrible. No technicians provide you with timely manner answers and support. Not worth the price.

Prevents business digital work from fraudulents at ease

Uses best-in-class technology and process to configure emails and safeguard them from phishing. What do you dislike about dmarcian? No major dislike about Dmarcian. The only challenge is the lower ability towards threat intelligence. The excellent customer support offered. Highly agile and faster than traditional email security gateways. What problems is dmarcian solving and how is that benefiting you? Helps businesses in protection from viruses, malware and email threat. Just with one single click company can blocklist and allowlist IPs and Domains. Solid technology to protect business data from any fraud and bad behaviour. The technology is ideal for medium, small and large enterprise businesses.

WAF is good, but so many half baked side features
What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? The WAF is pretty industry standard. Its not too slow, gets regular updates, easy to deploy and cheap What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? The side features are just trash. Its clear they have been shipped and dropped. Cloudflare Bot Detection should not exist. Its not even funny how easy it is to bypass. Page Shield is a joke, their API security is a joke. What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you? OWASP top 10

Empowering Email Authentication
What do you like best about dmarcian? dmarcian's clear mission to promote email security and combat phishing resonates and I appreciate their work beyond pure profit motives. I am satisfied with dmarcian's tools, highlighting their ease of use, helpful support, and effectiveness in improving email security. What do you dislike about dmarcian? While they offer free tools, their paid services can be expensive for smaller organizations or individual users. Their platform may not integrate seamlessly with all email service providers or security solutions, requiring additional configuration or workarounds. What problems is dmarcian solving and how is that benefiting you? Dmarcian helps me to protect our domain from being spoofed by email attackers. This prevents fake emails from appearing to come from their domain, which can be used to steal sensitive information or impersonate individuals. This benefits me indirectly by ensuring the information I access is from reliable sources and not tampered with by malicious actors.

Love the product- support could use some work
What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? Super easy to use. Very developer friendly. Tons of value for price. Undoubtedly #1 in WAF. What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? Could use some better support. No direct channels for tech questions. What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you? It's providing great security for our web app.

Protected email identity
What do you like best about dmarcian? With its operation, it has allowed electronic emails not to be usurped and all the information in each email is not released for improper use Our clients have the security that when an email is sent on our part it is safe because Dmarcian does not allow the domains to be kidnapped causing pirate emails to be received What do you dislike about dmarcian? I think that nothing dislikes because all its operation has been correct and executing all its processes well What problems is dmarcian solving and how is that benefiting you? It was the problem that emails arrived with the same domain but we were not who sent them and robbed the information or requested payments to other accounts and the client thought that if it was our work team that sent those emails because the domain was the same, with Dmarcian that problem was solved because our emails were never piracy

Don't Pay for Support
What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? In general, cloudflare is really easy to navigate, especially for simple DNS and domain management. Unless you have a complicated setup, I find it easy enough to move a domain or simply manage DNS for most sites. What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance? Their support is terrible. Had an issue with a client's DNS and the person I was talking to clearly didn't have a clue what they were talking about. They took so long between answers, it seemed like they were just asking someone else. Ultimately, they were of no help and we were out the money we paid to have live support. What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you? Makes DNS and Security easy for most websites and domains.
