"Google Cloud DNS - Fastest DNS, as I know"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud DNS?

Google cloud DNS have the best pricing structure, the fastest response time, most secure and reliable features. As it's infrastructure is supported by Google Cloud, which has 100% carbon free environment, it's also good for the earth too. We have full control on the DNS settings of our domain without using any 3rd party tool or service. Another feature that I like is, if we want to update any record in the zone, we can easily do that, and it propagates much faster than other DNS services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to dislike it fully, but still it lacks in some ways, like First time setup, managing or updating the records of the zone are a bit complicated comparing to another DNS services. Also, it's less user friendly in comparison to it's competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick and everywhere!"
5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud DNS?

Okay so, I normally use the DNS software my host provides, and just keep my domains hosted and routed all in one place. However, Google Cloud DNS updates much quicker and I inevitably migrated my domains and their DNS over and have been using it for almost 2 years now. It's incredibly accessible because it's Google! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud DNS?

The main thing I can point out that I dislike, is the navigation and user-friendliness. You'll notice while looking through settings and features that it's very technical and meant for someone who has a good head on their shoulders for networking (which I thankfully do!).

"Google Cloud DNS: High Quality Authoritative DNS Serving"
5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud DNS?

I really like the reliability and low-latency access to the infrastructure. In simpler words, access to our Google server or infrastructure is global and we have 100% availability to the Authoritative Name Servers. We also have full control over your DNS settings and these are no longer at the control of any 3rd party registering our domains. This further enhances our IT infrastructure security. Pricing is great furthermore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud DNS?

Lack of dedicated support and intervention. Pricing for support is also really high and not comprehensive: this means that it does not covers all aspect that are sometimes needed for a custom setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Google Cloud DNS: Full Control On Your DNS Records"
5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud DNS?

The platform is so user friendly that even a non-IT person can easily find his way through. I love the DNS management features within Google Cloud Console. This provides full control of all features as compared to 3rd party domain registrars who would usually charge additionally for DNS features like DNSSEC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud DNS?

To be honest, at this point I have no negative review. Maybe to provide free support and faster support. Currently support takes a minimum of 24 hours and support staff does not intervene and act directly. Furthermore, support is not provided for 3rd party services who use Google Cloud DNS.

"What is Google Cloud DNS?"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud DNS?

What I like most about Google Cloud DNS is the response speed when making requests to the server. When visiting a web page, not only a single DNS request is generated, but depending on the content we are accessing, there can be many requests for IP address resolution. This latter point causes the access time to increase if the DNS server is slow, overloaded with requests, or unable to resolve the request itself by forwarding it to another machine... These DNS servers are specially optimized to protect you against phishing, malware, and all kinds of threats to your security or the privacy of your data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud DNS?

What is most displeasing is that there are already free DNS servers with greater speed, privacy, and security against malware, phishing... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple, quick, and easy to use."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud DNS?

It is quick and easy to set up a domain and to set the records for the domain. The new/updated records propagate quickly, which is great when switching your domain to a new server with a new IP. The system advises when a record may have potential issue and suggests possible modifications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud DNS?

Adding and editing TXT records is a bit different from standard DNS services and can be a bit confusing to those that may be inexperienced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
