"This inherent stability, derived from its Linux-based architecture, provides a well-established and reliable platform."
"The solution includes automatic management of segments."
"One of the better things about Integrity is that the underlying code it uses is an ISC DNS and DHCP. It's not like some of the other vendors that have created their own version of DNS."
"I've been impressed by BlueCat's performance and user-friendly GUI."
"BlueCat Integrity provides us with flexibility and visibility that we did not have before."
"Managing our BDI infrastructure globally is simple, and BlueCat's personalized relationship with us is valuable to our organization."
"One of the key features enabling us to operate at our current scale is robust automation."
"The solution is scalable in multiple ways."

"Supporting DNS check is one feature missing in the solution."
"The solution’s pricing could be reduced."
"The product’s security and disaster recovery features need enhancement."
"The solution’s pricing and technical support could be improved."
"The solution should include more robust and secure services for hardening sites."

"Streamlining and optimizing processes related to Procter, VPN workflows, and other subjects based on specific needs would allow for continual improvement and adaptation to the evolving requirements of the system."
"However, it does not offer robust support for high availability failover with different subnets, especially if the servers are located in different data centers and belong to distinct IP networks."
"The technical support is slow and has room for improvement."
"One complaint about the interface is BlueCat's handling of subzones."
"BlueCat Integrity can improve by increasing the amount of updates it releases."
"Adaptive DNS only supports AWS for network automation and cloud computing and would be improved if it also supported other options like Azure or Google Cloud."
"When you replace an appliance, there are many configuration steps, so adding zero-touch provisioning would be helpful. It can be quite tedious and time-consuming to replace a device if it fails or deploy a new one."
"The solution does not export reports in a comprehensive format."
"The UI is outdated and needs a modern refresh."
