Gandi Reviews

I like the best thing about gandi they offer clean and easy process to register domain name.

They offer whois privacy protection to hide personal data so I am not receiving any spam emails like I used to get earlier.

The pricing is also good compared to the domain industry pricing.

Domain management feature is easy to mange domain settings like nameserver.

I have found nothing to dislike here easy to use UI and helpful support.

Another great domain registrar with simple UI to mange domains so recommended for people who need domains.

Pricing is also good compared to the other registrars. I am happy here so recommend it.

I have purchased domain from gandi and no problems at all.

Easy to purchase and manage my domain from dashboard.

I love how they offer you all of the different features including sub domains without limits on how many you can use. compared to places like go Daddy and google domains, and dont charge you for add ons. Very simple interface.

I Wish they allowed you to have more emails, and that they offered a website hosting/builder, besides that, nothing else. I love using them as a every day part of buisness...

Make sure you checkout all features before you start anything to make sure that you know this is right for you.

Making domain registration and hosting easier by simplifying it into one platform, where as other platforms like Gandi, they do not offer the same things. Gandi's Suite is making things a lot easier for me to run my company.

They work by word of mouth so customer service is priority to them. Making customers the priority

Billing can be confusing

And they are international so you have to pay extra fees

And there is often an issue

Managing domains with out the need for signing up for in needed extra

Easy management of domains and SSL certs

Switch version 5 has been lousy. Functionality stinks. Glad I still have the URL for version 4.

We have been working with Gandi for ten years and we have always recommended it to our clients. We can provide our clients with full ownership of their domains but still be able to fully manage the domains as "technical contacts". You can manage everything cleanly and transparently with Gandi: you have full control over all aspects of your domains.

If I would have to complain about something it will be the documentation: not that you need it a lot, specially if you deal mostly with domains and not hosting, but it could be improved.

If you are managing domains for third persons, keep domain ownership in your clients hands: the fact that Gandi allows you to set technical or administrative contacts for the domains makes this easy. You can be the technical contact for your client's domains, and then make the necessary configuration changes to the domains.

Managing domains at the lowest level, without having to sign up for extra products in not so evident with other providers (GoDaddy, for example). What seems cheap when you buy a domain can become expensive once you start with the add-ons.

Gandi gives you full control of your domains, and makes it very easy to decouple domain management from web hosting or even mailing. Prices are fair and competitive, and they don't try to seem cheap and then catch you with expensive add-ons.

The fact that Ownership, Billing and Technical management can be linked to different users/account makes the whole process more transparent too.

Cheap and very competitive prices, and an easy to use control panel to set things up

Not the greatest choice of TLDs and some (unusual) ones can be quite expensive.

Shop around for domains. Gandi are quick and the control panel is great, but so too are others, and depending on what domain you're after, they aren't always the cheapest. Never had a problem though, and cost isn't everything!

Quickly buy domains that are only available from certain registrars (e.g. MX) at competitive prices.

I needed a .io domain for my name and found out that "deepak.io" is available. So I compared the rates for .io domains with different registrars. My two requisites were:

a. Register with a well know domain name provider

b. It should be cheap cost wise

However a lot of popular domain name providers hadn't gotten into .io domains 2 years before and there were limited options. I looked into them and compared their prices and service and chose gandi.net.

I have been using it for two years and have been very happy with the service. Any changes in domain configurations is reflected quickly and name resolution has been fast.

P.S: I recently brought my website http://deepak.io down for a major revamp

Certain things which Gandi.net can improve upon is:

a. Improve the User Experience: Editing and updating the configuration could have been better. Particularly if you could provide short description for the different config parameters, it helps a lot and even a non techie can use it easily.

b. Price: The price is good compared to most registrars but its not the cheapest. There are definitely some cheaper options but probably not as renown as Gandi.net .

a. Recommended for .io domains

Solving the Domain registration problem.

a. The service is good: Changes in domain configurations are reflected across dns servers very fast

b. Not expensive: Compared to other good .io domain providers, their price is pretty good

c. Payment methods: They accept major credit cards, paypal, bank transfer and bitcoins. So if you want to keep your registration anonymous then you can pay through cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.

d. 1 year free ssl certificate: I didn't avail this freebie but one of my friends had used and was happy with it

The UI is simple and easy to understand. I can manage my domain with a small cost. Gandi offers classic website hosting and VPS Cloud Hosting. If you manage transaction or sensible data Gandi offers SSL Certificates too.

They should build an iOS app to manage the domain from the smartphone.

If you need to manage your domain name with flexibility this is the right software.

I can handle my domain, link it with my hosting and configure up to 5 email account.

The price that Gandi offers on the more unique domain extensions have been among the most reasonable that I've found, and they periodically have really good promotions.

The UI and management features of the dashboard could be easier to use/updated.

Domain management of different extensions.

The main reason I chose Gandi is that of the TLDs offered by them. there are many website Registrars out there but none of them offered such wide range of TLD's to select From, I actually Moved By Domain and Gandi only because of this. another great feature about Gandi is their Security Features, it's so clear that Gandi concerns about their user privacy and credibility that you never use an account or domain from using Gandi. they provide free SSL and WHOIS privacy with Domain Registration which is really helpful.

The price, Now coming to the worst of gandi, their Pricing is just too high that it can be a burden for the average user. they do not offer many discounts either which makes the case really bad and there is no offer even on bulk purchases. another problem with Gandi is accessing the account from a Mobile Device, they got no such thing as a mobile app and it's hard to navigate through their complex user interface with a mobile phone. they do not have so called customer support and it used to take days to get a reply for the querirs.

their security is of superior quality but if you're looking for a cheap registrar keep looking.
