Easy to use, simple licensing, and has a single pane of glass view
The solution is too granular and sometimes complex to configure. We do not always need so many details. Simpler configurations with fewer details would be beneficial. The API aspect could be improved with more use cases and better handling of object attributes. It is already better than in previous versions. Their product team is planning further improvements in the upcoming version 9.6. Last month, we had a roadmap meeting with the BlueCat product team. There will be a lot of improvements in version 9.6 coming in the second half of 2025. We will then upgrade our system to that one. It will have quite a lot of new features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Managing our BDI infrastructure globally is simple, and BlueCat's personalized relationship with us is valuable to our organization."
"It is easy to use. It has an understandable GUI interface. Its deployment is relatively easy."
"BlueCat Integrity's scalability and user-friendliness are the most valuable features."
"BlueCat saved us money in terms of a life-and-death scenario and the stress factors that surround that in a healthcare environment. We generally don't have downtime in our DATP environments anymore. The clinics and the hospitals can continue to operate and not be in that position to be down."
"The solution includes automatic management of segments."
"We started seeing the benefits of Micetro immediately because as we started using it, we didn't have to go back to the Excel sheets that we were earlier following and then updating as we moved along."
"DNS aliases, which we use extensively in our applications are a valuable feature."
"Adaptive DNS's best feature is DDoS protection, which stops malware and network security attacks."
"The most valuable feature of Infoblox Network Insight [EOL] is the information it provides about networks."
 

Cons

"However, it does not offer robust support for high availability failover with different subnets, especially if the servers are located in different data centers and belong to distinct IP networks."
"The solution does not export reports in a comprehensive format that allows us to see usage, administrators, VLAN, and backups."
"One crucial area for development is IPv6 support."
"The solution does not export reports in a comprehensive format."
"The integration has room for improvement."
"Adaptive DNS only supports AWS for network automation and cloud computing and would be improved if it also supported other options like Azure or Google Cloud."
"While the product is IPAM, DNS, and DHCP, it does provide NTP functionality, but one of the things that they have yet to correct or catch up with is NTP authentication. There are new standards being pushed out and they are lagging a little bit in supporting them."
"I would like the GUI to be similar to AWS and Azure, where we can simply click on an item to expand it and see all the information on one page, without having to click to the next page."
"The security of Infoblox Network Insight [EOL] could improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"BlueCat Integrity is a little expensive, but it's worth the price because it offers the flexibility and features we need in our space. We have more than 25,000 employees, and it makes sense for a network of our size. It's required for us to be compliant in the defense industry. Given the restrictions we face, we must be able to easily show that we've complied with all the regulations."
"BlueCat Integrity's pricing is reasonable within the market."
"Our licensing model with BlueCat Integrity is cheaper than Infoblox."
"Overall, it's a decent price for the product. There are other vendors that have support models and costs that are, sometimes, double what Bluecat charges."
"BlueCat Integrity is more cost-effective than Infoblox."
"BlueCat Integrity meets our expectations and aligns with our budget forecast."
"BlueCat Integrity is affordable."
"Compared to other solutions, BlueCat Integrity offers a competitive price."
"The license cost for the solution is based on the number of users that use it. The overall price is not expensive."
