Find out what your peers are saying about Infoblox, BlueCat, SolarWinds and others in IP Address Management (IPAM) Tools."The DNS/DHCP side of the product is quite useful."
"The features we found the most valuable were being able to handle DHCP scopes and handing out DHCP leases. We weren't doing some of the things that we can do, such as DNS query rate limiting. Our usage was pretty standard. We wanted to be able to track our IP addresses to create DNS entries and then create DHCP and manage DHCP scopes. We used the standard features the most."
"IPAM's best features include the view of how many soft nets are filled from your container and the grid master."
"Regarding DDI, I would say the best feature of Infoblox is the DNS security. DNS tunneling is a significant security issue and is very difficult to protect against based on our tests with other types of security devices. However, Infoblox eliminates this issue and provides excellent security against a difficult threat."
"We can specify the availability of subnets when we create them."
"It helps to avoid manual mistakes and we can add the proper DNS if we add an Alias name to that. We are aware of the CNAME we need to use. By using Infoblox as a DNS, we can add the A and PTR records, which is helpful for the lookup as well as the reverse lookup."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution has been DNS security. It has a solid foundation for building DNS, DHCP, and Advanced Threat Prevention."
"This is a DDI solution and having one management control has been most useful."
"The graphical user interface is very user-friendly and simple to use. It is very simple to use if you have never used it before."
"It's an older product. The GUI and everything is a little outdated."
"Their biggest problem is with the corporate side of the house as far as getting a support response or getting a sales team response isn't always as efficient as it should be and as it used to be."
"When we use the forwarders or when we're trying to connect with the internet, sometimes there are issues and the publishing time is longer."
"It is challenging to find training tutorials online."
"An area for improvement is IPAM's smart folders, which can be slow to access and would benefit from a search feature."
"The solution is not easy to use; the GUI and CLI are challenging to use, limiting end-user capability. We can't use Linux terminal features with Infoblox, as it struggles to detect and troubleshoot problems. We generally use troubleshooting tools like tcpdump in our network security area and we can use that in Infoblox with limited features."
"CLI needs to be user-friendly. There should be an option to commit changes."
"Infoblox IPAM could improve some of the features. The market is demanding for some features that are not there, but there is always a reason why it's not there. At the moment, the solution is rather complete for what it's used for. It can always extend to solve some other issues that are linked to it, but the solution itself is complete."
"The marketing of the solution could improve to give customers the awareness of the benefits."
