DNSimple Reviews

It's been almost a year since I've been using DNSimple's services, and I am extremely satisfied with the overall experience. The team is very responsive, the product works perfectly, and the interface is simple and efficient. But above all, the automation tools provide real comfort for designing and maintaining tools that utilize the services offered by DNSimple.

Overall, I have no specific criticism to make regarding the features I use, and everything meets my needs well.

We chose DNSimple primarily for their significant advancement in automation. This allowed us to set up an outsourced solution for managing our DNS zones, which is both highly resilient and easy to maintain on a daily basis.

Extremely reliable and simple. We haven't had an outtages or any issues with uptime

We are primarily using

DNSimple handles all our vanity domain DNS management. It is a cornerstone in our deployment pipeline.

Ymir deployments require valid SSL certificates, which are generated in real time during a deployment using DNS validation. DNSimple sits on this critical path. If their API fails, customer deployments fail. In 5+ years, this has never been a problem. Their API handles edge cases gracefully (idempotent upserts, safe deletes) and has proven reliable under production load.

I've honestly haven't had a single bad experience in the 5+ years I've been a customer.

Great account team. Great and simple to use. Very responsive to feature requests

No complaints. Might lack all the features you might need but they are very responsive and open to adding features.

They are our domain registrar.

DNSimple provides us with an exceptionally reliable dns hosting service that includes things that you can do with dns that you simply can't do elsewhere.

I don't consider there to be any downsides in using DNSimple

Having advanced programmatic control over our dns is our primary use along with automatic SSL certificates--and they do perfect for this. Support is top notch whether you've think you've found a bug or just have questions.

I used them for quite some time. Anytime I needed anything, support always emailed same day response. I had to switch due to a marketing company I started using handling this stuff for me. DNS simple actually refunded 3 months because I forgot to cancel... literally couldn't ask for anything more.

Nothing. They actually helped me save my domain.

One stop shop

I absolutely love DNSimple! Their tools made managing my domains incredibly simple and efficient. Setting up everything for my project, Ovet, was a breeze, thanks to their intuitive platform. Whether it’s domain management, DNS configuration, or setting up SSL certificates, DNSimple takes the complexity out of it all. I highly recommend their service for anyone looking to streamline their domain management process. It has significantly reduced the time I spend on DNS tasks and made my work easier!

Honestly, I struggle to find anything I dislike about DNSimple. It’s been such a seamless experience that I haven’t run into any issues. If I had to nitpick, perhaps it would be helpful to have more advanced tutorials or tips for optimizing the use of some lesser-known features. But overall, it’s been fantastic for my needs!

DNSimple is solving the problem of managing domains and DNS configurations in a straightforward, user-friendly way. It simplifies complex tasks like domain registration, SSL certificate management, and DNS settings, which are often tedious or confusing. This has benefited me by saving time and reducing the hassle of managing my domains for Ovet, allowing me to focus more on building the app rather than handling technical overhead. The integration with external services and automation options have been particularly useful for streamlining my workflow.

The simplest, most complete UX for this sort of work that I have ever seen. I wish every hosting company, security company, and other nerd tool I use on the web would look at how things work on DNSimple. I am on the site every other month and all the things I know how to do stay the same even as they make other tools available.

More hsoting companies should consider working with them. The integration with Heroku is stellar and makes hosting at Heroku an even easier choice.

Disparate clients (some experts, some not) and different needs for domain management. This web service fulfills all of our needs.

DNSimple just works, I'm a 10yrs old customer and I didn't had any issues with this service. The API and the API docs are awesome and works as expected. It was so great to have a sandbox for the API to test my scripts before moving to production.

Managing

We first learned about DNSimple through a recommendation in the documentation for our hosting provider (Heroku) in 2014, and I'm very glad we did.

DNSimple's customer service is highly responsive, their interface is easy to use, and their prices very reasonable.

We haven't found a downside to using DNSimple yet.
