Fending off server attacks

Makes managing DNS records simple

Domain registrar services are simple and a great value

The renewal date on domain name registrations needs to be specific about the day in which it will automatically renew a domain and ding your bank account. I've had it put me in the negative when not watching the bank account too closely. As a result, I've had to just disable the auto renew feature on upcoming domains to avoid any surprises.

It's been challenging to understand how different products can be leveraged together to achieve a specific goal.

Their documentation is good at explaining *how* a particular feature works, but understanding *why* we might want/need to use it or in what circumstances it would be useful is often unclear.

It's occasionally hard to get useful support. Not always.
