We have been working with Gandi for ten years and we have always recommended it to our clients. We can provide our clients with full ownership of their domains but still be able to fully manage the domains as "technical contacts". You can manage everything cleanly and transparently with Gandi: you have full control over all aspects of your domains.

If I would have to complain about something it will be the documentation: not that you need it a lot, specially if you deal mostly with domains and not hosting, but it could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI is simple and easy to understand. I can manage my domain with a small cost. Gandi offers classic website hosting and VPS Cloud Hosting. If you manage transaction or sensible data Gandi offers SSL Certificates too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They should build an iOS app to manage the domain from the smartphone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I needed a .io domain for my name and found out that "deepak.io" is available. So I compared the rates for .io domains with different registrars. My two requisites were:

a. Register with a well know domain name provider

b. It should be cheap cost wise

However a lot of popular domain name providers hadn't gotten into .io domains 2 years before and there were limited options. I looked into them and compared their prices and service and chose gandi.net.

I have been using it for two years and have been very happy with the service. Any changes in domain configurations is reflected quickly and name resolution has been fast.

P.S: I recently brought my website http://deepak.io down for a major revamp Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Certain things which Gandi.net can improve upon is:

a. Improve the User Experience: Editing and updating the configuration could have been better. Particularly if you could provide short description for the different config parameters, it helps a lot and even a non techie can use it easily.

b. Price: The price is good compared to most registrars but its not the cheapest. There are definitely some cheaper options but probably not as renown as Gandi.net . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

User interface is clean and easy to use, probably one of the best I know.

DNS management is easy to use even for non technical users. Their reselling system works, and give you a business opportunity.

They give you a broad number of services, and discounts based on volume, for a reseller it's a good choice as your clients won't have the same prices as you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Don't have enough tools to manage your systems properly.

Prices are not competitive unless you are on the E rates. You can find many other service providers with a better relationship between money and quality.

Their users support won't help out of office hours even in a crisis moment.

Their policies are not transparent enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The price that Gandi offers on the more unique domain extensions have been among the most reasonable that I've found, and they periodically have really good promotions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI and management features of the dashboard could be easier to use/updated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cheap and very competitive prices, and an easy to use control panel to set things up Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not the greatest choice of TLDs and some (unusual) ones can be quite expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
