Centralized DDI management has transformed our hospitals and now cuts manual effort to a minimum
There is not much to dislike about it. It is not a Microsoft product. It is based on Linux. I am a Microsoft guy learning to run these Linux environments. So there is a little bit of a learning curve there if you are not already a native or natural Linux user. We do have to patch our environments, probably quarterly, with hot fixes or updates that we have to apply. Updates and maintenance and applying them could be improved. Unfortunately, we can only do them one at a time. We have to follow them sequentially. We cannot do them all in mass. That does become a problem for us, especially if we have a zero-day threat that is sitting out there that is live. If I cannot update my environment within moments, then I am challenged. In order to update this environment with 150 plus devices, I have to go through one at a time. That can take us several days to be able to patch. Our API is the only automation capability. Our networking team who provisions our new networks as we build a new environment or a new site or we acquire a new organization handles a lot of that through automation via API. They provision and build up the permissions and rights and access model for each new network and sub-network. We are considering and trying to determine if we need to get even more automated and whether or not we need to leverage more API capability. We are building a team of automation engineers, and they are looking around and digging to find something to work on. We could do some more automation, but what would we do? We still have not figured out what else we would do. For my team that runs the actual BlueCat Integrity environment, we do not use API automation. Our networking team who provisions and builds the new networks handles that via API. We have thought about going through more in-depth automation, but we cannot find a good use case for it in terms of what level of engagement we want to take with it and how dedicated we want to be to become a development shop. That is still on the wings and we are trying to figure out if this is something that we can handle, or do we continually have to rely upon an external developer. BlueCat Integrity does not develop for us. They have a certain level of liability that they will not accept when it comes to automation and scripting through their API. They say they will guide us, but they will not do it for us.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"With the assistance of BlueCat Integrity and re-architecting, redesigning, and redeploying, our failure rate has gone to zero."
"BlueCat's technical support is very good."
"Anyone can learn and use it very efficiently, as it is not complicated."
"BlueCat Integrity performed a very good job in meeting the hybrid environment requirements and met my expectations."
"As a defense contractor, we must meet many compliance standards regarding logging, configuration, and administrative access. BlueCat is one of the few products that combines all the compliance components in a secure, reliable solution."
"The most valuable features of BlueCat Integrity are the user-friendly UI and the permission management."
"This inherent stability, derived from its Linux-based architecture, provides a well-established and reliable platform."
"BlueCat Integrity provides peace of mind as it is reliable and easy to use, making it an excellent tool for any organization's security and IT teams."
"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpUtils is the ease of use. Additionally, the IP address and port switch management, and twenty more tools for discovering networks and administrative management for Cisco devices are beneficial."
 

Cons

"BlueCat Integrity is very useful, but there are some points for improvement from the user experience perspective; it would be better if some fields, including A record and NAPTR record, are expanded for quicker and more efficient selection."
"One thing that I miss in BlueCat Integrity is that for a DDI record that is added and deleted, in InfoBlox, you do not usually need to deploy; it just gets added and everything processes automatically."
"Usability needs to be better."
"While the product is IPAM, DNS, and DHCP, it does provide NTP functionality, but one of the things that they have yet to correct or catch up with is NTP authentication. There are new standards being pushed out and they are lagging a little bit in supporting them."
"I would add that documentation is the first improvement needed, and also, when we call for support, there are often delays, as even when we raise a severity one or priority one, we often do not get instant responses from the TAC or support teams."
"The ease of use is where I got to give a little knock on them. Once you start using the tool, it becomes very easy. It's actually quite easy to use. The problem that I run into is documentation. The documentation could be a little bit richer. Documentation has always been a little pet peeve for me with them."
"When I started using BlueCat Integrity, I found it somewhat challenging to navigate to add DNS entries, but over time I learned how to use it better, and it became very easy to scroll and manage as I became more familiar with the environment."
"When you replace an appliance, there are many configuration steps, so adding zero-touch provisioning would be helpful. It can be quite tedious and time-consuming to replace a device if it fails or deploy a new one."
"ManageEngine OpUtils could improve by offering a cloud version of the solution. It is important to have cloud solutions. It is important to have someone with network knowledge to use the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Adaptive DNS's price depends on your network ranges, the services you want, and the level of support you require."
"Our licensing model with BlueCat Integrity is cheaper than Infoblox."
"Compared to other solutions, BlueCat Integrity offers a competitive price."
"I am not sure about the exact pricing, but I believe their cost is lower compared to Infoblox."
"BlueCat Integrity is affordable."
"They're competitive. The way they run their model is good. Could it stand some tweaking? Sure. There are some items there. One of the things I looked at in the recent past was their container solutions. You have to pay for licensing to use their containerized platform, but the licensing doesn't include the container licensing itself. I'd love to be able to have one big package per se."
"While BlueCat falls on the expensive side, its exceptional customer service and consistent quality justify the cost."
"BlueCat Integrity is more cost-effective than Infoblox."
"The price of ManageEngine OpUtils is inexpensive. The pricing model they use is billed for the number of IP addresses or hardware you use."
