Proactively secures DNS by blocking malicious URLs and triggers necessary alerts
I work with Infoblox DDI for DNS management, which involves blocking malicious and suspicious URLs. This helps in protecting my organization's domain name system and involves deep investigation and policy enforcement to understand why certain URLs are being used Infoblox is a proactive DNS system…

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

"Infoblox has more technology patents than any of its competitors."
"The best feature is the user interface."
"Infoblox is a proactive DNS system that enhances organizational security by blocking and triggering alerts for malicious or suspicious URLs."
"The DDI solution is valuable for its ability to integrate DHCP, DNS security, and IP address management, along with threat intelligence into one platform."
"Infoblox DDI is capable of fulfilling customer requirements from a DNS security, DHCP, and IPAM perspective."
"Infoblox DDI prioritizes DNS security, which is crucial for the security department."
"The customer service and support are fantastic."
"The UI is quite user-friendly and the support is available 24/7."
"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

"They need to provide more training and tutorials than what's provided on the website."
"Currently, it is cost-effective mainly for larger enterprises."
"The solution is expensive."
"Regarding an upcoming release of Infoblox DDI, I would like to see an improvement in the existing integration with Ansible. Currently, the integration is not up to par and requires further enhancements, particularly in Ansible version 2.5. Additionally, the GUI is slow, it could be improved."
"They need to reconsider their pricing for their SMB customers. It is a hurdle for them to manage the price."
"In terms of improvement, the commercial pricing could be reduced to attract more small customers. Currently, it is cost-effective mainly for larger enterprises."
"The recategorization part takes longer with Infoblox DDI compared to other companies like Symantec, Zscaler, and Palo Alto."
"It would be helpful if we can log in and click on the server, and have the CLI pop up directly instead of using third-party software, like PuTTY, to log in."
"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

"The license of the solution is expensive, not including the hardware."
"Infoblox's subscription includes support."
"Infoblox DDI is an expensive product."
"I would say the pricing falls between average and expensive. It's not a cheap product."
"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."
