Updates on our pledge to make Cloudflare features accessible to everyone

gist
Oliver Roup, Justin Hutchings, and Chase Catelli update Dane Knecht’s year-old pledge to stop keeping advanced Cloudflare features on Enterprise only. Logpush, log transformers, custom dashboards, and broader role-based access are now on every plan, and a dashboard button lets anyone create extra accounts. Organizations remain an Enterprise beta until a free-account rollout in early 2027. Plans are meant to differ by how much you can use, not which features exist, with a commitment to introduce no new Enterprise-only features aside from carve-outs such as Cloudflare for Government.
ideas
- The two-tier feature split is the gap being closed. Enterprise started as invoices, contracts, and support, then advanced features stayed there; the pledge is that capabilities built for demanding customers should be available to everyone.
- Plans differ by amount, not by menu. Generally available Enterprise features from this week are on pay-as-you-go, most are on the free tier, and the company says it will introduce no new Enterprise-only features aside from carve-outs such as Cloudflare for Government.
- Scale tools are accounts, roles, and code. Logpush and transformers, custom dashboards, resource-level RBAC, a New Account button, Terraform, and resource tags are the self-serve pieces; Organizations are one per enterprise and reach free accounts in early 2027.
- Cloudflare runs the same shape internally. Teams get narrow per-team or per-service accounts managed with Terraform, while the organization gives security administrative access, analytics, and shared policy.
- Free and pay-as-you-go also got more room. Limits rose across Workers, Containers, Workflows, and other products, and non-Enterprise customers can see billable usage with budget alerts on by default. Hard spending caps are only a Q4 2026 prototype, and that billing view is not on Enterprise yet.
