For prospective customers, I recommend considering the complete DDI solution rather than just DNS security. Moving from static IPs to dynamic IPs with DDI can prevent cybersecurity risks. I rate the overall solution nine out of ten.
Infoblox is a good product, earning a nine out of ten rating in my experience. Future advancements with AI will improve its functionality, and I recommend it to organizations seeking reliable DNS solutions.
Infoblox DDI is a good solution for those who want IAM, RADIUS, and TACACS+ technologies in one box. We have a vast environment where the whole city people connect to our portal for water-based technologies, water meters, garbage collections, etc. They get this from the one-time authentication created with Infoblox DDI. The solution is user-friendly and provides the best availability. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
My company also has Infoblox BloxOne, which provides DNS-level security, so in case DNS doesn't resolve any malicious URL a user is browsing, then that user can't browse it. All the products from Infoblox are based on artificial intelligence, meaning it provides one more layer of security to its users. If Zscaler fails to recategorize some URLs as malicious, Infoblox DDI will do it automatically. Infoblox DDI provides DNS-level security. If your DNS is not able to resolve and if you stop data at the DNS level, then you are utilizing bandwidth while all your resources are also utilizing the same bandwidth. When you try to browse any malicious websites or when multiple users in your office try to browse malicious websites, the data will go to the malicious website, after which the malicious website will fetch the data, while with DNS-level security, such activities can be blocked, because of which you are not sending the command to their data center, meaning you are not utilizing your bandwidth, making it free for other activities. You can utilize your bandwidth for multiple activities in your company. Considering Infoblox DNS, DHCP, and IPAM, I rate the overall product somewhere between eight and nine out of ten.
I really recommend this type of solution because I'm sure most of our customers are using Microsoft DSCB and DNS, but there is no security for that because Microsoft doesn't have this type of security solution. We are really focused on the security part, especially the DNS security part because there are a lot of attacks using DNS nowadays. Infoblox DDI is working hard on the end of security. So, I don't believe Microsoft can provide this. Therefore, I highly recommend people use solutions like Infoblox. Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.
If someone were to approach me for advice regarding the use of Infoblox DDI for the first time, I would suggest that it is an ideal solution for managing IP addresses, DNS, and NTP in medium-sized and large environments. This product is known for its ease of setup and has proven to be one of the most reliable and effective solutions in the market, as it is being used in many airports across Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Qatar. It is a highly recommended solution for anyone looking to efficiently manage large IP addresses and large network space. Additionally, NTP, which is an important aspect of network management, is effectively managed by Infoblox DDI. In conclusion, it is a top-quality solution that one should consider. I rate Infoblox DDI an eight out of ten.

We have a hybrid setup, with some on the cloud and some on-premises. We're actually moving from on-prem to the cloud at this point. I'd advise potential users to just go for it, however, to make sure they have the money. For a DDI solution, this one is perfect. I'd rate it ten out of ten.
I would rate this solution as eight out of ten. The stability is good. It's not a 10 because the software and servers can be slow. When we have some issues, the tech response isn't as fast as it should be, but we haven't opened many cases. For those who want to use this solution, my advice is to know the size of your business. Do you want to have an on-premises or on-cloud service? Do you want to apply this individually to your own servers, services, and records? For large enterprises with more customers and with many branches around the world, they are entitled to have their own servers or to rely on a service operator. It's important to consider the number of operations, future expansions, and the current design of the network. The engineering team should ask themselves about what kind of expansion they will have in the next five years.
Network landscapes are rapidly evolving, driven by trends in hybrid and multi-cloud transformation, the IoT and distributed workforces. Infoblox is uniquely able to support organizations in this challenging environment because our solutions support DNS, DHCP and IP address management. These are the critical network services collectively known as DDI that make all network interactions possible.
Overall, I would rate Infoblox DDI a nine out of ten. I would recommend this product to other users.
