Alternatives Considered
BlueCat
For all it's worth, it's a Linux based appliance and does offer a high availability design. It does offer IP address management and can scan your network through ICMP and SNMP. It does support role-based access controls for admins.

Return on Investment
BlueCat
  • CONS: Not up to speed with market-leading virtualization technologies such as Nutanix.
  • PROS: Reliable solution.
  • PROS: The design can be confusing for the folks used to Infoblox as it utilized 1 controller called Bluecat Address Manager and the actual DNS/DHCP servers named BDDS.
