"I like that Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection is one hundred percent good, performance-wise."
"The solution's user interface is very smooth compared to other products."
"The most valuable feature of Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection is its performance and visibility."
"Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection allows us to manage our overall addresses and IT in one location. Many companies are using this solution, it is very popular."
"It is a stable solution."
"Infoblox offers granularity and advanced DNS protection to mitigate DNS attacks. It's a very secure solution."
"The security of the solution is perfect. It's very good at protecting us from attacks."
"The automatic blocklists are most valuable. A box can maintain several lists from which we can choose if we need to block more or less. We don't have to manually manage the lists ourselves. They're automatically updated."
"The most valuable feature is blocklisting. It's good at what I like to describe as the "silly side cases." We have this annoying security architecture that says we must do this, that, and the other, so we try to make it easier on ourselves."
"The product is stable."
"The dossier feature is perfect for starting an investigation."
"Infoblox has helped us improve in the way that we look at data as it comes in and out. We monitor and manage queries from every device that sits inside our company, e.g., every user, every laptop, and every query. When you type something into the web, Infoblox will scan or manage that. If it is going somewhere bad, then it will block them. From a metrics perspective, it gives us data, letting us go back and find those impacted or infected clients to either clean their devices or remove them from the network."
"The most important features for us are preventing DDOS DNS attacks."
"When it comes to helping to detect DNS threats, BloxOne is good on all fronts. The number of false positives is very low, close to none. More than once it has detected new names or lookalike names and protected us and saved us from bad characters."
"With the model we have, we are able to scale very easily if we need to."
"There should be better alerts for when attacks are happening."
"The solution is expensive."
"I think only the technical documentation and administration of box could be a little bit improved."
"Infoblox lacks an extensive product portfolio."
"The price could be reduced to improve the solution."
"Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection could be more user-friendly because you need knowledge if you want to use it. To handle the solution, you need to be a subject matter expert, so this is one area for improvement."
"They should release frequent updates for its on-premises version."
"There is a steep learning curve to be able to use Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection well."
"The setup was horrible. About a year ago, Infoblox made us re-enroll all our on-prem DNS servers by a set date to a specific version, or it would stop working. I told my colleague, "Oh, here, we have to upgrade the servers and reconnect them to the CSP." That did not go well at all."
"The onboarding is a little rough at times, and you need to have some information at hand. It is pretty good, but it would be useful to have a few good examples to set up things like data exfiltration."
"The documentation needs to be improved because there are a lot of different models that it can be deployed in, and it's somewhat confusing determining what you need and how to set it up to best cover your use cases."
"The initial setup is not a simple "click-click-next" installation. It requires some level of experience ."
"They could work on the UI of their website and make their website more user-friendly."
"The dashboard and reporting features need improvement. The user needs more informative dashboards so they can get to the results directly without getting deep in the report to get to the information."
"The product is slightly more expensive compared to other DNS solutions."
"We would like to see more reporting capabilities that are now offered only with the on-premises reporting appliance."
