RE: DNSone opinions

Ben,

I was researching DNS/DHCP appliances a while back and found this company
(www.bluecatnetworks.com) to have a far superior product compared to anyone
else. We actually went through a thorough test plan and they came out on
top in every regard -- GUI, performance, easy to use, support, etc. The
DNSOne company had a decent product but not in the same league. We couldn't
buy either of them though because our budget got cut.

VitalQIP is overkill and a waste of money and resources.
