Overall Satisfaction with BlueCat Gateway
I currently use and have used BlueCat for SSL certificate validation purposes. Upon ordering a SSL certificate from our vendor, we are supplied with an CNAME string to add to our external DNS. Even though I don't belong to the department that supports BlueCat, I do have access to make DNS changes to it. This is a process I have been doing for the past 4 years. It became more efficient to add the CNAME entries myself as we order in the hundreds throughout the year. I learned the process of adding an external host value, as well as the host name in the correct domain, and deploying the partial change.

- Quick navigation
- It has had a great impact on reducing deployment times
- Made my job easier by providing an understandable interface
- Makes day to day tasks easier
BlueCat is the only DNS manager platform that I've had experience with. We had one prior to this, but it was before I had the need to interact with it doing one of the tasks I do now. I remember the switchover to BlueCat - not everyone was impressed with it, but so far my experience with it has been positive.
