How can enterprises benefit from vanity name servers?
Vanity name servers keep uniformity throughout DNS records, and customize the WHOIS information for domains. They extend branding to the technology stack so servers appear branded, and look professional when handing out target name servers, but still use a DNS hosting provider.
When large numbers of domains need to re-delegate, it's more practical to use vanity name servers to make a single IP change at the name server level vs. one change per domain. This lets enterprises automatically convert customers to a new platform in a single action.

What is the guaranteed uptime for the Enterprise plan?
DNSimple offers a 99% SLA (Service Level Agreement) to all Enterprise customers with the option to upgrade to 100% SLA. Read more in our policies.
Why do enterprises need secondary DNS?
Availability is key for all businesses. If your site becomes unavailable, of course you'll lose traffic, but you'll also lose leads and trust. That's why it's important to have a redundancy strategy for your DNS.
Why is DNS critical for any enterprise?
The Domain Name System (DNS) is the backbone of the infrastructure of the Internet. Without it, we would struggle to find resources on the Internet, and no one would be able to find your business.
Your business can't have an online presence without DNS. Having control over the configuration of your DNS helps you connect to other services like email and webhosting.
By using a managed DNS service like DNSimple, you don't have to worry about stability and reliability of your DNS. This improves website performance and your visitors' experience
How much does a DNS server cost?
There are many considerations in the cost of a DNS server, including maintenance and software upgrades that must be done to avoid issues like exploits and downtime.
You'll need to have backups in the event of outages, and you might need to refresh the hardware periodically to provide better responses to your visitors.
All of this effort, time, and money is not core to your business. With the DNSimple Enterprise plan, we take care of all the maintenance, upgrades, backups, and any attacks that might happen.
