We performed a comparison between Azure DNS and Google Cloud DNS based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Managed DNS solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The initial setup is straightforward and not that complex."
"The solution allows you to host DNS service without using Azure's servers."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The speed of the queries is valuable."
"Data protection is paramount across cloud platforms"
"Can be configured to achieve a hundred percent reliability"
"The setup is relatively straightforward."
"One of the key benefits of Azure DNS is its integration with other Azure services. As it is a solution developed by Microsoft, it is easy to integrate with other Azure offerings. Azure DNS also includes Defender for DNS, a feature that protects against anomalies and threats on the DNS. This added security is provided directly by Microsoft. The integration and security features of Azure DNS make it a valuable option for users of the Azure cloud platform."
"Google Cloud DNS continues to evolve based on customer feedback and technological advancements."
"The tool is well integrated. We don’t need the interface of another provider. The product helps me manage my domain and write in Google Cloud."
"The scalability is good."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The initial setup process is easy."
"The product must be integrated with additional security features."
"The DNSSEC feature is not yet available on the DNS server so it needs to be added."
"There are some latency issues that could be improved."
"Domain registration is one of the problems. We need to go to application services or web apps to purchase the domain instead. If that were to be equivalent to AWS's Route 53 that would be good. But, it is not as flexible as that."
"There are issues with the cloud systems."
"The CDN integration could be improved."
"The solution lacks scalability."
"I would like to see more integration with other platforms, improved stability, enhanced security, and better pricing because there is always room for improvement."
"The UI is tricky to understand for people who have not worked with DNS records. People with little to no experience with DNS records can find it hard to understand. For example, you need to know the hallmarks to input records since they need to be matched in a specific format."
"It needs to provide better integration."
"The UX of the product is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The solution's price could be better."
"The cost of using Google Cloud DNS can be relatively high compared to other options, especially considering the cloud environment."
"Migrating away from Google Cloud DNS can be difficult."
