Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Dyn Managed DNS

Oracle Dyn Managed DNS is being used for all of our external DNS resolution needs. (Anything that isn't under the management of Active Directory.)
  • Great reliability of DNS resolution services.
  • Broad worldwide footprint for good redundancy.
  • Broad worldwide footprint for geo-local DNS resolution.
  • Web management interface is somewhat difficult to get used to.
  • Web management interface went down for a few hours right when we needed it one time - not good. (DNS resolution continued just fine without fail, but we could not make a critical change in a timely manner. Oracle Dyn was also unable to make the change on our behalf over the phone. Not a good situation to be in.)
  • Hard to perform mass updates at once through the web interface.
  • Closed a gap in our written security policy.
  • Reduced burden of security management now that we no longer need to keep old internal DNS servers up to date.
I haven't used support.
Works well, relatively easy to manage, but web interface can be cumbersome if trying to make a great number of updates in a short time.
Great for businesses that have some public services hosted in a very reliable way, but have DNS hosted on a few internal machines that are not kept up to date, or are behind Internet connections with questionable reliability. Also good for those that want to get out of the business of keeping internal DNS servers up to date and secure against the constant barrage of new attacks.
