Infoblox DDI (BloxOne) Reviews & Insights

We use Infoblox in multiple capabilities i.e. IPAM, DHCP and DNS resolver. If you are an organization that consists of more than one domain and host applications and websites then Infoblox is needed for DNS. When getting DNS module it makes so no sense to leave out IPAM as they both go hand in hand. It literally is a jack of all trades.

It's hard to imagine a scenario where Infoblox is not needed or not well suited. It is on-prem so it will meet all the local data regulations. It come with both IP and DNS features hence it will replace two solutions at the same time.

We are using Infoblox DDI internal and external grid and internal grid. They help us with our DNS, DHCP, and IPAM infrastructure.

We have been using Infoblox DDI for 10+ years at Pitney Bowes. The experience has improved gradually. As far as DNS and DHCP go, they are amongst the top ones offering this service. The support is great and downtime is minimal. The IPAM is always scanning the network to update the IP database. The caching servers reduce the lookups towards the internet. All in all, this is a must-have in every data center.

We use Infoblox DDI for all of our internal DHCP and IPAM. We also use it as a TFTP server for our IP phones. We also use it as a DNS server for certain zones in our environment.

Infoblox DDI is an excellent alternative for Microsoft DHCP. It is a much more robust solution. It can also do DNS for your entire environment. However, if you are an AD environment, you will still need Microsoft DNS servers. The IPAM functionality is excellent for keeping track of your IP addresses.

We are using Infoblox to manage the IP space for our department. However, the corporation uses Infoblox across the organization for all IP management. Infoblox provides a sophisticated method to manage your IP assets, manage DNS, and keep track of the DHCP environment. We also take advantage of using Infoblox as a distribution system for network boot systems.

For an Infrastructure tool, it is a high quality and well thought out solution to managing IP addresses. This tool significantly lowers administrators' time to a minimum in supporting core tools.
This is a tool that is well suited for complex large infrastructures, and is not intended for small enterprises based on their pricing structure.

Infoblox is used in our corporation for IPAM data management. We also use it for DHCP on some occasions, but primarily run Microsoft DHCP. It is being used by the entire IT department to manage our network scopes and is very capable in addressing the problem of having all that type of information documented in one easy to reach place.

Infoblox is well suited for any environment bigger than a small business. Managing network scopes and DHCP is an integral part of running a business and Infoblox IPAM does that quite well. We've never really had an issue with reliability or performance of Infoblox, so I'd recommend this product to any medium to large business looking for a way to manage their network information in one place.
