We needed to find a new DNS provider in the EU region which is GDPR and ISO27001 compliant. CloudDNS is much more than that as their DNS service is stable, fast, easy to manage and supports secondar... See more

Excellent because only experts work at Cloudns

The DNS experts in the ClouDNS support team are available 24 hours a day. So far, every question or problem that I caused has been answered or solved to my complete satisfaction. The support team also gave me further helpful tips to better understand the context of the DNS network. You never stop learning. Thanks to Borislav.

Support needed because of my own fault

Support needed because I let my subscription expire. Had to open a support case via chat which was picked up immediately and ultimately fixed within 1 hour. A company that invests where they should! Kudos to Yordan M. which identified and fixed the issue. Renewed for additional 2 years! I'm a satisfied customer since at least 6 years! Never had a single issue.

Good DNS at very good price

Good DNS provider at very good price. Everything works as it should. Low latency worldwide. Support is exceptionally good. Overall very happy. I recommend.

Terrible Services, They change the price suddenly.

I saw that they were selling .ni domain for only $1 so I ordered from them. But they suddenly cancelled my entire order because Registry refused to register. After that, I tried to register again, but they charged me $900 this time. They never guided me on this before, nor did they apologize to me a single word first. I am very disappointed with their service. They provide the worst service as Domain Registrar. They should be kicked out of Domain Registrar.

As you promised on Live Chat, don't reply at my review.

+ I think you broke your promise in the live chat. I definitely asked you not to reply.

The refund was carried out normally. But I didn't get anything from ClouDNS in the end. If you're not going to make up for my hard work chatting with the support team while spending my important time, please delete the reply.

Hello, we are not .NI domain registrar nor any of our partner registrars. This TLD was showed by mistake on our website. Until we investigate the price was changed to $1000 to make sure no new orders will be submitted. Once we found the problem the TLD was removed from the website. Sorry for the inconvenience caused by this case. If the funds are not refunded in full, please contact our technical support. The funds will be refunded back to you without any issues.

Experts at DNS and great support

Excellent price/quality option for high level DNS hosting, I have experience using another options like Route 53 (so secure but too complex to use), GCP and Cloudflare (excellent for CDN but for DNS hosting has too many limitations) and have to say that these people are PRO at DNS. The techcnical support is really fast and accurate. And if you have tons of zones to manage the API option it´s great! I move and update thousand of zones in a few minutes. SO recommended!

Horrible customer service

Horrible customer service. They don't have a contact number and I have requested they call me multiple times and they do not.
Our DNS server expired and we need to renew it however I can't access the online account due to an old employee having the password. I can't receive an email to change the password as the DNS is expired.
They have been unhelpful despite me offering to show proof of business registration and have the director contact them directly.
This has impacted the business significantly and would recommend finding a DNS provider with better customer service.

Hello,

We regret to hear that you are not satisfied with our customer service.

Providing access to the DNS zone without having any proof of ownership over the domain name will violate our Privacy Policy and GDPR. Our support team has provided instructions on how to prove domain name ownership. If you are the domain name owner, please follow the instructions to prove the ownership. Once we have the proof, we will immediately provide access to the DNS zone.

Super reliable DNS service with a low price tag and good support

I have been a ClouDNS customer since 2019 and have never regretted it and most probably will never regret it to stay one.

To date, I am not aware of any major infrastructure failures. Their service is extremely reliable. The anycast DNS servers respond very fast all over the world.

The record type support is great, I never missed anything. The backend is fast and mostly intuitive. There is also an API which one could use to automate processes. Never experienced any problems with this either.

All of my support tickets I wrote have been resolved fast, kind and with high technical competence.

All in all, I'm extremely satisfied with ClouDNS and will probably never switch providers again.

Keep up the good work, guys! Greetings from Germany.

they are scammers! be aware!

they are scammers! be aware people!

i purchased a domain, after paying the domain, my order was on hold for more then 3 days.
no answer from them.
after asking them why the order is still on hold, they said, they would need my ID pictures.
But i am not gonna send just a random company my ID pictures!
i asked kindly for a refund of my payment, and they refused.
they said if i am not willing to submit my ID pictures, they are going to keep my money and report my payment in the monthly statement as fraud.
what the ... hell?
gladly i already informed the local authorities in my county and my lawyer.
so be aware people and stay away from this scammy service!
i am sure i wont ever see my money again.
but i can not IMAGINE what they would have done with my ID pictures and information.

Hello Lara,
Our anti-phishing team detected your domain name as phishing against Volksbank. Provided contact details are invalid and the phone number unreachable. You still reject to provide us a phone number to talk with you to clarify everything. Processing payments to an unverified recipient, even via BTC will result in money-laundering charges. As already explained in the ticket we need at least a valid phone number to talk with you.

Good interface and fast updates

Bought their cheapest Premium DNS service to run as a slave to my hidden master. Free trial required no credit card info or forced auto-renewal, service was up and running before I had even provided them with any billing information. Both marketing information and the web interface was easy to use, not obfuscated behind non-technical marketing terms, and I believe it took no longer than a minute before I saw the AXFR's rolling in and their nameservers were serving my records. Saves me a good chunk of money over time as opposed to running my own infrastructure that I moved away from. If there's anything negative I would add it's that I'd like to be able to see a dump of the zone they've cached from the web interface.

We were looking for a backup DNS…

We were looking for a backup DNS solution and good reviews and pricing led us to ClouDNS.
The Backup DNS was quite simple to set up, but I did need to clarify a couple of things with ClouDNS support.
The online support chat is great. I've used it 3 times now and got responses instantly - no waiting in a queue for ages to engage or for a reply.
My questions were understood and replied to clearly and fully.
Early days yet, but at this point I can't fault the product, pricing or support.
