Just started out with them and was able… Just started out with them and was able to sign up, register a domain and setup Google Workspace in just a few clicks. Their support team proactively reached out to provide assistance in the nicest way possible. Props to Anthony and Sebastian. The one-click services are pretty good. Happy so far.

Really great experience for years now! -

Best DNS Hosting Company by far If you want no-nonsense DNS hosting, don't look anywhere else. You'll get simple and transparent pricing plans, a clean and intuitive web interface, a comprehensive API to automate your workflows, and excellent customer support by representatives that actually work for the company and understand the technology. I've noticed that some users seem to be confused about why they would have to pay monthly service fees for a DNS product. For me it's actually the other way around—when a company offers free DNS hosting I wonder how they pay their networking and compute bills (hint: they either do the old bait and switch or sell you overpriced domains). The team constantly updates the product with new features, but I trust them to not lose sight of their core competency: managing domain names and DNS records, which they do exceedingly well. We are a customer of DNSimple since 2013 and have never been let down.

Shady practices... to keep you paying for nothing 1. Impossible to get any support. 2. They charge you yearly upfront with some random adjustments (of course those adjustments are into their favour.... what are these, why? no explanation provided whatsoever) and you won't be able to transfer domain out without paying upfront for the next year ($60/year for hosting DNS zone... really?!) 3. And you can't switch to monthly BEFORE they charge you for the full year upfront

Never regretted signing up long ago I remember 6 years ago looking at the signup page: "what? why is there a monthly fee for a DNS provider?" I signed up anyway and have relentlessly recommended DNSimple to all my devops-friends since then. Their product is clearly not for beginners, such as GoDaddy - which is good, because I skip all the marketing and bloated interfaces. But they also managed to hit the sweet spot in usability to make it way more comfortable than Route 53. The Team at DNSimple does one thing and they do it WELL. Over the years I had to interact with their support team every now and then (concerning features, difficult configurations and technical questions, API usage) and I always had direct, helpful interaction with the most wonderful people. It's a niche company, but in that niche, everybody (at least in the Ruby and Terraform world) knows them. I simply trust these people to take care of our domains.
