"Intuitive Integration and Support, But Wallet Management & MPC signature messages Needs Improvement"
What do you like best about Dfns?

Dfns has been straightforward to integrate into our platform. To be honest, you do need developers to handle the integration, but the thorough documentation makes the process much easier. The product is also very intuitive for end users, and we benefit from an excellent team behind the product who are attentive to our feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dfns?

There are a couple of aspects we would like to highlight. Firstly, the MPC messages that need to be signed are not user-friendly, which makes it difficult for signers to clearly understand what they are approving. Secondly, the front end for managing wallets and policies is quite complex, as there is no way to organize the information efficiently. Even a basic feature like organizing policies and wallets by "tags" would significantly enhance the user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Christopher Grilhault des Fontaines of Dfns

Thank you, Lucas! This is really helpful feedback that we’ll take back to the team. Improving the user and admin experience on the dashboard is a top priority for us right now. Dfns has always been an API-first product, but we’re now focused on making it safer and easier to manage for non-technical users, something the market is clearly asking for.

"Effortless Setup and Robust Wallet Infrastructure with Constant Updates"
What do you like best about Dfns?

I appreciate Dfns for its low entry cost and robust infrastructure, which made it an excellent alternative for our needs compared to other expensive options. The setup process was straightforward and easy, which was a great start for us. I'm impressed by the robust wallet infrastructure that Dfns provides, especially with its prebuilt integrations with third-party vendors, which saves us a lot of time and effort as we don't need to integrate them individually. The core functionality of the wallets, particularly sending and receiving, is extremely beneficial for our operations. Additionally, the fact that Dfns frequently ships new features shows their commitment to constant improvement, which is crucial for us. Lastly, I value the team's support and the ongoing updates, which give me confidence in their service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dfns?

I don't like the limited support for USDT, which restricts our operations in certain markets we cover. Additionally, more blockchain support on USDT tokens, including integration with Solana, would be highly beneficial for us. I also feel that incorporating low-cost on-ramp and off-ramp features and integrating a card program would enhance the platform's offerings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Exceptional Support Made DFNS API Integration a Breeze"
What do you like best about Dfns?

The support team was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable, which allowed me to implement the DFNS API in a very short amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dfns?

The complexity of the API results in a steep learning curve, but it is still manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Christopher Grilhault des Fontaines of Dfns

Thank you, David! This is very valuable. Our Head of Product will reach out to you to learn more about the complexities that make the onboarding and configuration of the product sometimes difficult. We want to simplify the developer experience as much as possible.

"Outstanding Tech, Perfect Pricing, and Top-Notch Security"
What do you like best about Dfns?

There are 5:

1) They have nailed the pricing structure for payments companies.

2) Great natively built-in security around the MPC wallets with an additional on-premise option.

3) Extremely well working customer success processes.

4) Great coverage on all L1 blockchains.

5) Overall, great tech that just works. Best I have seen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dfns?

There isn't anything about Dfns that we don't like as Keyrails. We integrated it once and it just works. We only contact them to get information about the new features and how they work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Valuable MPC and Workflow Features, But Usability and Security Could Improve"
What do you like best about Dfns?

Having an MPC on Canton is definitely valuable. Additionally, the ability to set up approval workflows and matrices is particularly useful in this environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dfns?

Other networks offer solutions that are significantly more user-friendly. While I appreciate that MPC eliminates the need for hardware wallets, as someone who prefers cold wallets, I find these options less secure. For example, my computer could serve as an attack vector, and even the physical security of a yubikey is not guaranteed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Christopher Grilhault des Fontaines of Dfns

Thank you for your feedback! Indeed, Dfns is an API-first company and we take pride in offering the best programming interfaces of the industry. When it comes to the dashboard, we still have work to do. Fortunately, we have hired a great team of frontend engineers this year and you should be seeing significant improvements in the coming months. The hard part is to build the security, the infrastructure, the APIs, and that's done. We look forward to getting your updated feedback next quarter as we keep improving the user interfaces.

"Works exactly as advertised"
What do you like best about Dfns?

The solution is easy to use even in the most complex situations. Great documentation makes it quick and easy to get started. The customer service is very responsive and knowledgeable. Newer standards, techs, protocols, DTLs etc. are proactively incorporated into the solution so DFNS wallets always work regardless of your needs.

They keep on adding new features and improving their tooling's User Interfaces, making the solution easier and easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dfns?

The wallets are so secured and permissions so fine-grained that it's sometimes difficult to reason about the best way to secure assets, but it will certainly satisfy the most complex enterprise requirements.

However, their new UIs greatly help making the most basic use cases easy to reason about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Christopher Grilhault des Fontaines of Dfns

Thank you, Olivier! We're lucky to have you as our clients.
