FlyingPress says its Cloudflare full-page caching integration works on all Cloudflare plans, including Free. |
| Full-page disk cache without Cloudflare | Yes. SPC includes full-page disk caching from the origin server. | No. APO is a Cloudflare edge service, not a WordPress disk cache. | Yes. WP Rocket generates static HTML files on the origin server. | Yes. FlyingPress generates static HTML pages and serves them from the web server. |
| Cloudflare edge caching support | Native SPC focus: configure Cloudflare edge/page caching and purge from WordPress. | Native Cloudflare APO edge caching for WordPress. | Compatible with Cloudflare and APO; cache sync depends on APO, Page Rules, Cache Rules, or the official Cloudflare plugin. | Built-in Cloudflare full-page caching integration; also supports FlyingCDN as an optional add-on. |

| Multi-site pricing value | Strong for agencies: 50 sites at EUR 69/year and 500 client sites at EUR 149/year on the current SPC pricing page. | APO is tied to Cloudflare plan/add-on economics and the APO WordPress plugin does not support WordPress multisite. | 50 websites are listed at $299/year; 100 and 500-site options are shown under the Multi license selector. | 10 websites are $229/year; Unlimited websites are $279/year. |

| Advanced cache controls | Strong WordPress-side controls: cookie, query parameter, URI, TTL, purge, preload, role, backend bypass, and per-page controls. | More limited APO-specific controls; designed as a Cloudflare-managed edge service. | Strong advanced rules and helper/plugin ecosystem, plus Cloudflare sync paths. | Strong controls through settings and developer filters for cacheability, query params, cookies, purge, and preload. |
| Priority support | Email support on Personal, priority email on Business, live chat and priority support on Agency. | Support path depends on the customer’s Cloudflare plan. | Support tickets are included with an active WP Rocket license. | Customer support is included; pricing page emphasizes support and trial access. |
