"Perfect DNS server with Easy Setup"

4/5

What do you like best about DNS Server Windows 2019?

I used the previous version of the Windows DNS server but The Windows 2019 DNS server has good performance and an easy setup process over previous versions. The Response Rate Limiting (RRL) functionality is very good as you can limit the response rate and avoid DDoS attacks on the DNS server. The new PowerShell cmdlets are available for easy configure and use. It is more secure if a man-in-middle attack occurs to current the DNS cache D.A.N.E. (DNS base Authentication) system prevents it. The Microsoft Support is also good, So overall it is good for my organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DNS Server Windows 2019?

Sometimes its update creates problems for me. Recently It was running without problem but after the update, it started showing DNS Stub Zones error, so I rolled back that update and It is working fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DNS Server Windows 2019 solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have privacy concerns in our organization and can not rely on an external/public DNS server, so Windows 2019 DNS server helps us to obtain this goal. We are able to apply traffic management and load balancing-related policies in our DNS server. It helped us to get enhanced security and we have full control on our traffic.
