Anand Yadav - PeerSpot reviewer
Manager Technical support at Softcell Technologies Limited
Centralized DNS governance has reduced incidents and supports secure hybrid deployments
Azure DNS could be improved with more advanced DNS analytics, richer auditing reporting, and better visibility into DNS query patterns and troubleshooting data. There is also a desire for deeper security-focused features such as enhanced DNS anomaly detection, more detailed change tracking, and stronger integration with broader security monitoring platforms for threat investigations and compliance reporting. One additional improvement desired in Azure DNS is more advanced DNS security intelligence and automated policy recommendations. For large enterprise environments, features such as DNS anomaly detection, easier cross-zone dependency visibility, and enhanced reporting for compliance and security investigation would provide greater operational and cybersecurity value.
