DNSimple, a very simple domain manager

Rating: 9 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It is a portal that facilitates the management of DNS domain zones, and also provides SSL certificates. It also works as a domain registrar. It can function as a primary DNS zone or configure it as a secondary zone for our domains that are on other DNS service providers. It also allows various price plans according to our needs.

Pros

  • Domain management.
  • Configuring SSL certificates
  • http to https redirection

Cons

  • It only has 3 pricing plans, but they are very flexible.
  • Domain transfers can sometimes be slow

Likelihood to Recommend

When you have several DNS domains contracted with different domain providers, you must manage each domain with its corresponding provider. With the DNSimple portal we can bring together all domains in one service and manage them from its portal. In this way we can register the domains with the providers that offer us the best price at all times but we will always manage all the domains from the same portal.
