Have built secure, automated DNS pipelines and simplified cloud DNS management through integration
I would like to see a bunch of templated or policy-driven provisioning for DNSSEC in the next release of Infoblox BloxOne DDI. Additionally, I would like to see DNS hosting so you do not have to deploy the NIOS appliances yourself or manage another cloud DNS service. This would allow you to pare back your DNS registration and hosting to just registrar services. That way, you would have a fully integrated, vertically integrated API stack for being able to affect all of your automated changes against your actual public authorities as well rather than just your internal resolvers and authorities. I think that would be something quite cool for them to have.

Stands out in manageability with one console for DHCP and DNS
The manageability is a standout feature. I have one console for DHCP and DNS. It allows me to easily make changes, especially in the IPAM module. I can easily make reservations in the HEP and change reservations, which is not possible with Microsoft management. The management console of Microsoft did not give good management options. We now have one console. We can also see which IP addresses were given in the past. It is more convenient. I could learn it very fast. I did not have any training. We did a PoC with BlueCat, and during the PoC, I learned the things I needed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The overall product rating is ten out of ten."
"The most valuable features of Infoblox BloxOne DDI are its ability to manage all DDI services effectively and monitor them in real-time."
"In my experience, I am satisfied with the functionality; there is no lack of functions, and it is a very powerful solution because they work with this technology, so they are probably number one."
"A valuable feature is blocking domain generation, which automatically generates domains to protect the internal network."
"It actually prevents a lot of false alarms because if a link is blocked by antivirus, it creates an alert for the IT risk team to investigate. By not resolving the IP for a malicious link, it stops many issues before they escalate. This has improved our security posture significantly."
"When we compare, if we spend 200,000 to 250,000 every year or every second year on security compliance, that is money we could transfer into the licensing for a SaaS service such as Infoblox BloxOne DDI, then we get all of the continuous patching, threat analysis, and that type of capability coming through without having to maintain such skilled staff."
"The most valuable feature is IP address management which automatically updates a central database by leveraging DNS."
"The management has become easier because, as compared to Windows DNS, Micetro is a bit easier since you have more information and it is presented better."
"The manageability is a standout feature. I have one console for DHCP and DNS."
 

Cons

"There are probably some strict agreements, and the answers are probably not so rapid. The responsiveness could at least be improved, but I have not had many cases, just a few."
"There is a need for a comprehensive database on DNS."
"At this stage, we are struggling to use some of the DNS features of the platform, which are more about protecting your domain from hijacking and similar threats."
"Infoblox BloxOne DDI is good to use, but there could be improvements in its visualization and dashboarding UI."
"Infoblox BloxOne DDI would not be for smaller companies. I think if you are under 1,200 staff, you probably want to look for a professional service or something that is integrated into the platforms you have already got."
"Infoblox is fairly expensive for my customers. I am unsure if this is a general comment or specific to my situation."
"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

"I would rate the pricing a ten out of ten, with ten being very expensive."
"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."
"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."
