| My Favorite Registrar Features:  | Value:  | Interface:  | Customer Service:  | Overall Rating:
 | I've been with GoDaddy since January 2001 and have held as many as ~650 domains with them at any given time. I was assigned an Executive Account rep. about 1.5 years ago and have been extremely pleased with the customer service I have received. Even when I use a different rep. (e.g., when mine is on vacation), I'm consistently very happy with the customer support.
I have yet to find a registrar that can beat GoDaddy's prices and provide the flexibility and functionality I get from GoDaddy's domain interface. Although their new interface isn't as user friendly as their previous one, I've been able to get accustomed to it without much difficulty.
The ability to instantly push any number of domains to another GoDaddy customer is quite valuable, especially due to the fact that it's free. Transfers in from another registrar, however, can be a bit time consuming and frustrating, but that's usually due to the OTHER registrar's poor service or quirky procedures.
In the 6 years that I have been a GoDaddy customer, I have NEVER lost a domain name. An associate of mine insists on keeping his domains at NetSol, stating that they have better security. I can't say whether he's right or not, but I can say that GoDaddy's security has never been an issue for me.
The ads everyone seems to be annoyed with don't bother me. Just press your End key to go to the bottom of the page and choose "Quick Checkout" and you'll bypass all the add-ons. I've never used any of GoDaddy's other services, so it would be nice, as another poster mentioned, if there was an account option to always bypass those ads.
My overall experience with GoDaddy has been and continues to be outstanding. This is the one registrar I recommend head and shoulders above all others. |
