Under 10 employees

Cloudflare

91.5% of band

Under 10 employees is the main volume band, with 508 companies and Cloudflare on 91.5%. Amazon CloudFront and Amazon S3 form the smaller alternatives in a market where most detected usage sits with one system.

10–50 employees

Cloudflare

92.4% of band

10–50 employees covers 143 companies, with Cloudflare at 92.3%. The pattern is close to the smallest band, suggesting mid-sized insurance firms do not shift far away from the same CDN mix.

Over 50 employees

Cloudflare

81.8% of band

Over 50 employees is a small detected cohort, with 11 companies and Cloudflare at 81.8%. The lower share leaves slightly more room for other systems, but Cloudflare still leads the band.

How CDN usage is detected

Methodology

Company data

Detected companies are joined to UK Companies House records and XBRL accounts data. Revenue and headcount figures come from the most recent filed accounts; where the company has not filed, values are estimated using a model trained on filed history and peer benchmarks and are labelled as estimates.

Detection

Firmbase crawls the public website of actively-trading UK companies and fingerprints the technologies present: tracking scripts, embedded forms, chat widgets, CMS markers and similar signatures. A company is included in this list when one or more of the technology's signatures are found on its site; closely-related variants of the same product are grouped under one name. Detection covers what is visible on the public web — a company using the technology purely internally, with no website footprint, will not appear. Counts are therefore a conservative floor, not a ceiling.

Freshness

Websites are re-crawled on a rolling basis and the underlying company data is refreshed from Companies House continuously; filings appear within days of submission. The list and its statistics are regenerated when the detected cohort moves meaningfully. You can see the last-updated timestamp near the top of the page.

Frequently asked questions

What is the most-used CDN among UK insurance companies?
Cloudflare is the most-detected CDN among UK insurance companies, with 91.5% share (606 of 662 companies with a detectable system), ahead of Amazon CloudFront (8.6%) and Amazon S3 (8.3%).
How many UK insurance companies have a detectable CDN?

What is a CDN?
A CDN stores and serves website assets from distributed infrastructure, reducing the distance between users and the content they request. For UK insurance companies, it typically supports public websites, quote journeys, document downloads and other customer-facing web services where page delivery and availability matter.
How is CDN usage detected?
Firmbase crawls the public website of every actively-trading company in this scope and fingerprints the technologies present — scripts, widgets, booking and checkout flows. A company is attributed to a system when that system's signatures are found; systems with no public web footprint are not attributable, which is why every share figure on this page means share of companies with a detectable system.
Which has more UK insurance companies, Cloudflare or Amazon CloudFront?
Cloudflare: 606 detected companies versus 57 for Amazon CloudFront, of the 662 UK insurance companies with a detectable CDN.
