User Testimonials
	Azure DNS	Vercara UltraDNS
Likelihood to Recommend	Microsoft Using Azure DNS, you can easily and quickly deploy and manage your domain DNS. It's been an excellent introduction to our web services requirements. It offers all services on a single platform and integrates with other applications. It not only offers DNS services for websites but also for your applications. Incentivized Anshul Srivastava Software Engineer Read full review	Vercara (formerly Neustar Security Services) I think it is best when you might need a lot of detail. I wouldn't suggest this for sharing with an end user. Incentivized John Dykstra Small Business Owner Read full review
Pros	Microsoft The Azure Private DNS has an option for automatic mapping which creates a DNS record automatically for all the resources in a particular Vnet, and adds new DNS entries for whenever a new resource is created. The DNS entries can be shared between different VNets automatically and there is no need for manually populating it or syncing it with different networks. The mapping or records is very easy as the target/source/backend is automatically populated and there is no need to keep those IP addresses handy instead you can map them using their name.

Cons	Microsoft Provides Name Resolutions using Microsoft Infrastructure Not required to manage server to run this Azure Service Simple DNS queries and fast apply Secure & High Available Custom DNS quires can possible . No complex policies Incentivized Rupakula Ravi Kumar System Manager Read full review	Vercara (formerly Neustar Security Services) I'm pretty happy with it as is.

Usability	Microsoft No answers on this topic	Vercara (formerly Neustar Security Services) I haven't had any problems. Incentivized John Dykstra Small Business Owner Read full review
Support Rating	Microsoft No answers on this topic	Vercara (formerly Neustar Security Services) On a rare occasion that we call for support, more like a HOW-TO type of thing, it is a live person, prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Microsoft The implementation process was fairly easy, quick, and straightforward compared to other estimated timelines from competitors. The price is fair for the service, while the customer success team and engineers know what they are doing, making the entire process smooth and comfortable. Also, they are a big and known brand, which makes us more at ease with our choice Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Vercara (formerly Neustar Security Services) We read reviews and had a demo. That suited us well. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Microsoft since Azure DNS belongs to Azure Cloud environment, there is no positive impact since Azure DNS belongs to Azure Cloud environment, there is no negative impact there would be a negative impact if Azure DNS would be missing Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Vercara (formerly Neustar Security Services) I like their free offerings.
