Dynadot has been excellent with their prices, their customer service, user interface, AND allowing ALL contact information up front when privacy is off.
Compared to Namecheap, they have the advantage of having both the Afternic FT and Sedo MLS options. With NC, there were recurrent issues with FT approvals showing up even after having completely removed them AND removed the domains from Afternic. Overall, though, their customer support was very good and prices were very competitive.
Congrats on making the change and trying a different venue. GoDaddy still has an issue relating to the lack of registrant email visibility up front. Even if your privacy is off, you have to pay for a yearly protection plan to make it visible. Otherwise, someone trying to contact you has to submit their email information to GoDaddy, to have them forward their message to you.
HOWEVER, for the domains you have remaining at GoDaddy, you might be able to do a work around, with the privacy off, of adding the email to your Organization line. E.g. for organization, you could list "self, with email at
[email protected]." That way, someone can still contact you directly without having to submit to the extra steps to send an email to your through the GD servers.
