Likelihood to Recommend	Constellix DNS is well suited for people already familiar with DNS Made Easy but want more features. Constellix is especially good for people who need ANAME records Incentivized John Reeve Co-founder, Lead developer, Lead designer Read full review	It is very useful where system demand is very high and more traffic is coming. It is very efficient and gives best return on investment Incentivized Alok Singh ☁️ Technical Consultant Read full review
Pros	Resiliency, they claim to have very little downtime and so far we haven't experienced any ANAME Records, we haven't experienced any issues as IP addresses behind the target CNAME records have changed. Incentivized John Reeve Co-founder, Lead developer, Lead designer Read full review	Makes for a fast website loading. Enhanced the user interface. Economical cost. It is the best RUL.

Cons	Nothing I would change. The admin interface is straightforward and easy to use. Incentivized John Reeve Co-founder, Lead developer, Lead designer Read full review	Learning materials depicting flows that can help users who are completely new to networking Pricing can be more transparent I feel UI is a bit complex to adapt, especially for new users, it should be made more intuitive Incentivized Lokesh Pandey Servicenow Consultant Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	The interface can be better. As of now, it is a bit difficult to manage multiple records at the same time or to test the rules effectively. The data reporting is also not as great as we expect with tools of today’s maturity. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	IBM NS1 Connect and Amazon Route 53 are both DNS (Domain Name System) services, but differ in their focus and strengths. IBM NS1 Connect is a cloud DNS service designed for complex traffic routing, application performance, and reliability, while Route 53 is a more general-purpose DNS service offering domain registration, routing, and health checks, often used within the AWS ecosystem.
