I also use Netlify. On the free tier of Netlify a site is deployed to 6 points on the Netlify Edge CDN (Frankfurt, Singapore, San Francisco, New York, Sao Paolo, Sydney, Moscow as of August this year, but it might have changed).

On the free tier of Cloudflare a site is deployed to 194 locations. That can knock a couple of hundred ms off of a page load time. It might be worthwhile if you need something to be especially fast.

That said, Cloudflare is much more of a hassle to set up. Netlify is ludicrously easy. That's one of the many things I like about it.

Why is Cloudflare more of a hassle? Point your nameservers to them, done.

I use Cloudflare in front of Netlify.

Step 1: set up on Netlify

Step 2: add the domain on Cloudflare and let it grab the DNS entries Netlify made
