Namecheap has stopped supporting some TLD transfers in, now referring users to their spaceship property instead.<p>Uniregistry was bought, and shut down, with all domain management transitioning to Godaddy.<p>Gandi made their 2.0 dashboard feel like a padded room.<p>All registries have raised renewal prices with no value added to justify it.<p>Who is using what? Who is hosting bigger domain holdings? I am trying to consolidate domains I have spread across a few, and would like to gain some insight to other options.
Every medium to large company I have worked for I moved all the domains to MarkMonitor due to their good support and what services they offer. I do not know if they are still good, but all the companies I moved to them are still using them.<p>One big perk in my eyes is they are specific to businesses and there are counter-signed legal agreements, contracts in place. As such, far less likely to pull a stunt like another registrar recently that put a domain on hold [1] for one abuse complaint. They would instead reach out to the multiple business leaders listed as business contacts and sort things out like professionals. They also have a legal presence in every country where it is required to get the ccTLD of that country. I never had a bad interaction with them and they were always reachable and knowledgeable.<p>I have had good luck thus far with eNom for my hobby domains and Porkbun for my meme domains.<p>[1] - <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40877561">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40877561</a>
MarkMonitor, but if you don't like renewal prices increasing by a few dollars at other registrars, you won't like their pricing.<p>$100-$500/yr for a .com is what I've heard, and a minimum spend for other things, such as registry lock.
