Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Infoblox, F5 and others in Domain Name System (DNS) Security."I like that Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection is one hundred percent good, performance-wise."
"The solution's user interface is very smooth compared to other products."
"It is a stable solution."
"Centralized management of DNS, DHCP, and IPAM helped us a lot in simplifying and automating the management of network and services."
"The most valuable feature of Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection is its performance and visibility."
"DHCP is a basic service, and they've been doing it for years, so it's mature and stable."
"The solution helps to identify and mitigate DNS attacks."
"The main advantages with Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection are the dashboards, the reporting system, and they have the GUI interface."
"The ability to prevent users from using certain applications is one of the most valuable features. It doesn't require any configuration for implementation from the client perspective. It just works right away and gives you the information you need."
"It's very easy to install and it includes the Intune portal from Microsoft where I can control all the devices from one place."
"If your business requirements are relatively simple, it can get the job done."
"I like the web GUI/the management interface. I also like the security of Microsoft. As compared to other manufacturers, it's less complex and easy to understand and work with."
"All of the features are valuable because all of the features are related."
"Defender's integration with our identity solutions is critical in our current setup."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration across different clouds."
"The most valuable feature is its policy implementation."
"I think only the technical documentation and administration of box could be a little bit improved."
"There needs to be more capabilities in order to configure the console itself instead of the user interface dashboard. Configuring the DNS or DHCP through the console instead of the GUI dashboard would be better."
"The solution is expensive."
"The solution's logging could be improved."
"There is a steep learning curve to be able to use Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection well."
"The price could be reduced to improve the solution."
"The service monitoring information could be simplified of this appliance and the information displayed on the dashboards could be improved. I have not found one dashboard to be perfect. For example, in Splunk, I can create a dashboard in Grafana. However, in Grafana, it takes a very long time to create them. There should be another API to do it better."
"Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection could be more user-friendly because you need knowledge if you want to use it. To handle the solution, you need to be a subject matter expert, so this is one area for improvement."
"They should continue integration with all other Microsoft security-related products. The integration with all the other products is still ongoing."
"There are some features, such as user navigation content filtering, that are disabled by default, and it probably makes sense to enable them by default."
"The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"Sometimes the support is actually lacking."
"There are challenges with detection and there are challenges with false-positive rates."
"Defender could integrate better with multi-cloud and hybrid environments. It requires some additional configuration to ingest data from non-Azure environments and integrate it with Sentinel."
"The response time could be better. It will be helpful if the alerts are even more proactive and we can see more data. Currently, the data is a little bit weak. It is not complete. I can't just see it and completely know which user or which device it is. It takes some effort and time on my part to investigate and isolate a user. It would be great if it is more user-friendly or easy for people to understand."
"I would like for it to be available on Mac and for it to support all of the features of Microsoft financing products. It is really for Windows."
