Chose CloudfloorDNS
They have all the same features and customer service without the price tag. We used Dyn as our DNS provider for over a decade. We continued after the acquisition by Oracle, but decided to save a few bucks.

Chose Google Cloud DNS
My initial query discovered Google Cloud DNS and because we were familiar with and trusted that brand already, we didn’t even bother to evaluate the other option I’d found: Cloudflare DNS. When you are happy with a brand’s products, there is no need to waste time looking for …
Chose Google Cloud DNS
At the time Google DNS was free for most features. We already use google for a variety of needs, so it integrated well. We tried a few other products, but they were expensive (for our needs) or cumbersome. Training was simple with Google DNS, for IT adjacent staff. Other …

Google Cloud is the easiest to use sharing platform available. Other platforms are not as accessible as accessing the Google drive when you are logged in with your Google account. Trello has a limited sharing capacity which I have not experienced with Google Drive. Our …
Chose Google Cloud DNS
We chose Google because it was so affordable and integrated obviously very easily with our other Google products we're already using like Google Analytics and Google Ad Manager. Using everything within Google simplifies our workflows and makes it easy to find receipts and …
Chose Google Cloud DNS
Amazon Route 53 offers almost equal or slightly more features than Google Cloud DNS; we selected Google Cloud DNS because the rest of our projects use Google Cloud Platform.
Also, since AWS is a bigger service provider, their pricing is also higher; since Google Cloud DNS …
Chose Google Cloud DNS
Google Cloud DNS is just as good as some other premium DNS services and definitely better than some (such as Godaddy). I generally choose Google Cloud DNS when I am already using other Google Cloud tools for a project as it just makes sense. From one account I can manage the …

CloudfloorDNS is a great product, particularly if you want a reliable DNS service without breaking the bank. They support all the standard record types (A, CNAME, NS, MX, etc.) Very easy to use. They also have a way to roll back changes in case something unexpected happens. I would say if you have a small IT department and need DNS to just be a utility that you never have to think about, this is a good product for you.

Google Cloud DNS is well suited in most cases - it has a clean interface, plenty of configuration options, available to view and edit on the Google console.
It may not be as well suited for novice users since the documentation about the various fields is not always available near where the fields need to be set.

This is exceptionally simple to utilize in the event that you are as of now utilizing Google Cloud Services or you are important for the Google Ecosystem as of now. I accept this is likely the primary goal of Google Cloud DNS, to give a more complete set-up of devices to Google Cloud clients. Consequently, I would rate convenience a 9.

In the event that you are utilizing Google Cloud Platform as your cloud supplier, Google Cloud DNS is unquestionably the DNS supplier to utilize.
I haven't required help for it yet, notwithstanding, in my experience, Google Support is incredible.

Google Cloud is the easiest to use sharing platform available. Other platforms are not as accessible as accessing the Google drive when you are logged in with your Google account. Trello has a limited sharing capacity which I have not experienced with Google Drive. Our institution has afforded us unlimited space on the Google Cloud platform which was more of a struggle to obtain on Dropbox. Teams would select and use Dropbox voluntarily and have to arrange payments and claims. I also find that Dropbox sends a multitude of emails regarding storage and upgrades while Google Cloud is generally silent but highly effective as a storage tool

Return on Investment
  • It takes one more thing of our list of things to manage; once it's working, we can focus on more important things
  • I have received calls letting me know that we might be experiencing a DDoS attack; they had already remediated the threat by throttling the traffic from that source back so it did not overwhelm resources. Had that not been sufficient, they were already ready to spin up additional virtual servers to offload some overhead and make sure that we were not impacted by the situation. They continued monitoring until things were back to normal and followed up with a call to discuss. Very good service.
