Network Solutions.com

Pros: You're not forced to use them any more!
Cons: Their service has always been terrible.

It used to be that Network Solutions had a monopoly on domain name registrations. This derived from a U.S. government contract their predecessor company had before the Internet reached the degree of commercialism it now has; originally they were merely...

Pros: Pro's anyone? Anyone? Anyone? Anyone?
Cons: The IRS has nothing on Network Solutions

Network Solutions (NSOL) is a company with a 14.132B Market Cap, and a $1 customer service philosophy.
The company I work for owns five domain names. So, I've had enough negative experiences with Network Solutions to determine that there is...

Pros: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!
Cons: Not enough space here. See my review.

1st things 1st: A single "HIDDEN" unhelpful rating on these negative NSI epinions tends to show up directly after posting. Here's a hint to the hidden rater...no one's buying it


I joined epinions quite some time ago and my focus...

Pros: Hmmm... they sometimes get it right
Cons: Waste of valuable time and resources

I've been using the services of Network Solutions (recently taken over by VeriSign who has done very little if anything to solve the previous problems) for a year now with the company I work for since we have at least 400 domains (not an exaggeration,...

Pros: solid site with good reputation
Cons: $35 a year is too much for domain registration

Network Solutions used to be one of the few entities that was able to monopolize a significant part of the world of the web. No more. Network solutions now has to compete with rival doman registration sites. Furthermore, many other web sites now offer...

Pros: can't think of one
Cons: lack of customer support

Having registered my first domain name almost 2 years ago, I had no other choice but to use Network Solutions. Luckily for me, my ISP was willing do all the work for me; after all, I was paying them to host the site. I sat there and watched him navigate...

Pros: None.
Cons: Price, No customer service. Hideous horrible interface.

You have absolutely no idea how thrilled I was to discover that there is an entire section here devoted to Network Solutions, nor how overjoyed I am that this review won't be buried in a pile of dot-com reviews. Because I need to spread the word that...

Pros: None
Cons: Expensive. Difficult as hell to make changes. They're under FCC investigation.

The hosting company for one of my sites setup my domain name with NSI back in the day.. and I've been trying to make changes to the record. One because I moved, and secondly because I want to change hosting companies.

There's two...

Pros: Biggest Domain Registrar
Cons: Too Big to Care About You

I've been working with different companies on internet and network design, architecture, and support for about ten years now. During that time, I've found that there are two companies that you'll always regret having to deal with. The first is US...

Pros: ?
Cons: Poor Communication

Back in June I decided to purchase a domain name. This would be my first go at something like this so I contacted a good friend mine to ask where he started and he put me in touch with his Domain Host. The Host Company told me that my first step would be...

Pros: I can't say anything nice at this point
Cons: Customer Service is a joke

I have read several of the opinions on Network Solutions but I read too late! I will agree that this is the most nonsense I have ever had to deal with. To register my domain was no problem in fact that was the smoothest transaction I had to make....

Pros: Reasonably reliable, established.
Cons: Monopoly central.

Having used the Internet for a decade, and written about Network Solutions and related topics for a book that's coming out next month, I was happily surprised by the opportunity to review them. That's not to say I'll pull any punches, though.

...

Pros: Absolutely none.
Cons: The company.

If you are considering registering a domain name, then save yourself a great deal of trouble and avoid Network Solutions at all costs. Their practices border on fraudulent, and their incompetence defies description. If possible, a 0-star rating would...

Pros: The Who Is lookup is Keen.
Cons: They charge to much, customer service has been very bad, don't offer enough extras like the cheaper registrars do.

I am so glad there is more than one place to purchase domain names now. I do remember purchashing my first domain name with Network Solution. It was good training since the possibility is there as a webdesigner to register a domain name for a...

Pros: \No pros. They are backed by Satan.
Cons: Horrendous, horrendous customer service. Confusing processes.

Where do I start? The problem is this company was at one time a monopoly. They have a monopoly mentality. That is, Customer Be Damned. Fortunately, there is now competition. These guys apparently have failed to realize it. Read all about my fun...
