System Engineer at a aerospace/defense firm with 501-1,000 employees

Easy to use, simple licensing, and has a single pane of glass view

The solution is too granular and sometimes complex to configure. We do not always need so many details. Simpler configurations with fewer details would be beneficial. The API aspect could be improved with more use cases and better handling of object attributes. It is already better than in previous versions. Their product team is planning further improvements in the upcoming version 9.6. Last month, we had a roadmap meeting with the BlueCat product team. There will be a lot of improvements in version 9.6 coming in the second half of 2025. We will then upgrade our system to that one. It will have quite a lot of new features.

Is user-friendly, automatically provides requested IP addresses to devices, and is reliable

Initially, we paid for professional implementation assistance when deploying Micetro, but we soon discovered it to be user-friendly. We were able to implement it ourselves without needing professional services. The interface is intuitive for those with some understanding of the system, and overall, Micetro has been a great product for us. If you were a Windows DNS administrator, and you were to switch to Micetro, there would be almost no learning curve. Integrating Micetro was simple. We had it running in one day. Before Micetro, requesting an IP address for a new device involved a manual process with multiple emails and required IT intervention. Now, it's entirely automated, freeing up our team's time and significantly speeding up the build process. Micetro has greatly simplified IP address management for us. We only use the two modules we subscribe to but all the server management is under one GUI. Micetro has improved our DDI operations by unifying server management. Our previous system suffered from unreliable automated scans and outdated DNS entries. Since switching, we haven't encountered a single issue, and Micetro's streamlined approach has significantly sped up deployments of hardware, software, and anything requiring an IP address. Switching to Micetro from our old, cumbersome system brought immediate benefits. Previously, a simple task like checking and reserving an IP address required navigating multiple screens and manual verification. Micetro streamlines everything into a single interface with intuitive right-click actions for availability checks, reservations, and DHCP assignments. Micetro's non-disruptive installation is a major benefit. Disruptive installs require after-hours work during maintenance windows, which strains our technicians by taking time away from their personal lives and forcing them to work outside of regular business hours. Ideally, all installations should be non-disruptive like Micetro. Micetro required minimal work on our endpoint devices; the change happened at the network level on our existing DNS server. After a simple authorization process, we were up and running, making it a very straightforward implementation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We started seeing the benefits of Micetro immediately because as we started using it, we didn't have to go back to the Excel sheets that we were earlier following and then updating as we moved along."

"BlueCat Integrity provides us with flexibility and visibility that we did not have before."

"The solution is scalable in multiple ways."

"DNS aliases, which we use extensively in our applications are a valuable feature."

"The most valuable aspect is its user-friendly interface. It is straightforward to use."

"One of the better things about Integrity is that the underlying code it uses is an ISC DNS and DHCP. It's not like some of the other vendors that have created their own version of DNS."

"The most valuable feature is the IPAMs, which provide visibility into all the IP addresses on the network."

"The most valuable features of BlueCat Integrity are the user-friendly UI and the permission management."

More BlueCat Integrity pros

"The most valuable feature is IP address management which automatically updates a central database by leveraging DNS."

"The manageability is a standout feature. I have one console for DHCP and DNS."

Cons

"The solution does not export reports in a comprehensive format."

"The DNS and DHCP servers for guests are separated from the main organization. A lot of times, it doesn't allow you to choose a default IP space. When I log in to the GUI, it doesn't default to where I want it to be. So far, I haven't been able to find out how to change or specify that so that it defaults to a particular space, such as the main org. If I'm looking for the IP space for guests, I need to toggle and go to the guest site. Most of the time, I want the IP space for the org to be my main space, but it doesn't give me the ability to do that, or I haven't been able to find that over the last two years."

"The IPAM dashboard could be enhanced to display more information and provide data analysis features."

"BlueCat Integrity can improve by increasing the amount of updates it releases."

"The solution is too granular and sometimes complex to configure. We do not always need so many details. Simpler configurations with fewer details would be beneficial."

"I would like the GUI to be similar to AWS and Azure, where we can simply click on an item to expand it and see all the information on one page, without having to click to the next page."

"The solution is too granular and sometimes complex to configure. We do not always need so many details. Simpler configurations with fewer details would be beneficial."

"Usability needs to be better."

More BlueCat Integrity cons

"In the web version, I cannot change the IP addresses in the reservation, whereas in the app version, I can. It is a feature I would like to see available in the web version."

"We initially purchased professional services from Micetro, but they didn't reach out to us until after we had already set up and been using the application for several weeks."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other solutions, BlueCat Integrity offers a competitive price."

"While BlueCat falls on the expensive side, its exceptional customer service and consistent quality justify the cost."

"BlueCat Integrity is a little expensive, but it's worth the price because it offers the flexibility and features we need in our space. We have more than 25,000 employees, and it makes sense for a network of our size. It's required for us to be compliant in the defense industry. Given the restrictions we face, we must be able to easily show that we've complied with all the regulations."

"I am not sure about the exact pricing, but I believe their cost is lower compared to Infoblox."

"Overall, it's a decent price for the product. There are other vendors that have support models and costs that are, sometimes, double what Bluecat charges."

"BlueCat Integrity is more cost-effective than Infoblox."

"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."

"BlueCat Integrity is affordable."

More BlueCat Integrity pricing and cost advice

"Micetro's renewal price was in line with expectations, increasing slightly from last year but not significantly more than the typical year-over-year price increases we see across the market."

"As a school, we received a special price. It is more expensive after being taken over by BlueCat but not prohibitively so. The product simplifies life, and the license is not very pricey."
