**What do you like best about Directnic?**

They have been around a long time, I first started using them a little over 20 years ago and they were recommended but an IT colleague.  Over the years I have continued to register some domain names over the years and that has been stable.

**What do you dislike about Directnic?**

Some of the domains I hosted over many years had some breaches from the hosting side and access to the domain was leaked.  This happend on several occasions and they were not quick to fix it.

DirectNic allows me to register domain names.
