I have been using IBM DNS That Matter for years to host my domains. When I was looking to find a new service provider, I had a lot of demands on my list. I needed a host that was going to be fast, reliable, secure, and above all else, easy to use. I found all of this and more with IBM Cloud. On top of that, they're always coming out with new services and solutions. IBM Cloud is a great choice if you are looking for a new hosting service.

NS1 is well suited for large/mid-enterprise customers that really care about the reliability of the overall infrastructure, enhanced end-user application experience, and security. Less appropriate for small-scale enterprise customers
