We performed a comparison between Azure DNS and BlueCat Integrity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Managed DNS solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Azure DNS provides value beyond its user-friendly interface and easy learning curve."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is a stable product."
"Data protection is paramount across cloud platforms"
"It is a scalable solution."
"The tool is easy to manage and use."
"Integration with other Azure services is good."
"The DNS resolution is the most valuable feature."
"Azure DNS is a user-friendly and very easy-to-manage solution."
"One of the key features enabling us to operate at our current scale is robust automation."
"Since implementing BlueCat, we have experienced fewer problems, anomalies, and strange issues."
"The most valuable feature is the IPAMs, which provide visibility into all the IP addresses on the network."
"DNS aliases, which we use extensively in our applications are a valuable feature."
"The solution includes automatic management of segments."
"The most valuable features are scalability and cloud infrastructure."
"The solution is scalable in multiple ways."
"It's a critical infrastructure piece. This is where all the IPs are named for the whole organization. It's a big deal. It has all the features related to DNS and DHCP. It's pretty amazing."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"Azure DNS could improve by having more updates."
"The solution lacks scalability."
"There are some issues with the solution's performance where improvements are needed."
"The initial setup of this solution could be less complex and require less manual configurations."
"The process of creating a virtual mission could be improved."
"The CDN integration could be improved."
"Azure DNS does provide enhanced support for applications and includes several security features to protect against threats. One of the security features it offers is the ability to detect and prevent dangling DNS records, which can be used in cyber attacks. Dangling DNS records occur when a website owner creates a domain name but forgets to remove the CNAME record, leaving the domain vulnerable to takeover by malicious actors. Azure DNS includes security measures to identify and prevent such threats, helping to keep your DNS infrastructure secure. However, if Microsoft could add more security capabilities to the DNS, that would be great to detect and identify anomalies that are happening to prevent cyber threats."
"The UI is outdated and needs a modern refresh."
"I would like the GUI to be similar to AWS and Azure, where we can simply click on an item to expand it and see all the information on one page, without having to click to the next page."
"One crucial area for development is IPv6 support."
"Usability needs to be better."
"The technical support is slow and has room for improvement."
"While the product is IPAM, DNS, and DHCP, it does provide NTP functionality, but one of the things that they have yet to correct or catch up with is NTP authentication. There are new standards being pushed out and they are lagging a little bit in supporting them."
"During our testing phase, we encountered some issues with Active Directory and DNS reverse lookups."
"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."
