Cloudflare One vs Menlo Security Cloud Security Platform

Cloudflare One is a SASE platform for connecting and protecting an organization's workforce, AI agents, and infrastructure. It brings together zero trust access, secure web gateway, CASB, network-as-a-service, firewall-as-a-service, remote browser isolation, DLP, email security, and digital experience monitoring. Internal application access uses identity-first controls and granular rules. DNS and HTTP filtering protects remote users and branch offices, while a private global backbone connects offices, clouds, and datacenters. AI controls provide visibility into generative AI usage, identify unsanctioned tools, secure MCP-server connections, and can assess prompt intent to block sensitive data leakage. Email protection addresses phishing, impersonation, malware, and business email compromise. Management is centralized through a dashboard, API, and Terraform provider. The free plan covers up to 50 users and up to 24 hours of standard log retention, with community forums and Discord support. Pay-as-you-go is $7/user/month, with no user limit and up to 30 days of standard log retention. Contract pricing is not listed.
