Gandi services is perfect for personal user, because they give you free email (forwarding and pop), free blog, free 2-pages website, free whois privacy and free dns hosting. Their prices is quite high, US$15, but with all those services included, it is reasonable. The drawback is their support do not use online ticket system, like kayako, etc. And not 24/7. Since they offer web hosting too, the support should be 24/7.

Gandi is my registrar for more than 5 years now. It’s reliable and trustable. They’re not the cheapeast but for US$3 more than others you benefit from many services included such as a ssl certificate, mail, blog, website creator,…Customer service is efficient and qualitative !
Someone recommand them to me at the start and I do the same now. They didn’t do any marketing ever, everything works with the word of mouth only. This is my word

I confirm Gandi services is perfect. I use them both for my domains and for hosting. The best cloud infrastructure I have used so far, affordable and efficient

I have been with them 10 years now and never had an issue.

Prices are fair, you do get what you pay for and more !

Top Quality service.

Accounts easy to manage, no tricks.

I heard of Gandi.net back in the days when they and triple0 were one of the lest expensive registrars. Gandi’s been around for a while, but I don’t believe I’ve ever registered a domain with them.

I’m not here to bad mouth Gandi and get all nasty. I’m just here to share my experiece with a recent promotion Gandi was running. I submitted a few emails to their Customer Service department, and I received responses very quickly - within 12 hours - with what I believe to be a standard ‘canned’ response. Their response really didn’t satisfy my question, so thinking I didn’t make myself clear, I responded with a more clear & direct email. Since we exchanged a few emails within the day I figured this was a good sign. Now, I realize we’re only coming up on 24 hours, but since my last emails, I’ve yet to receive a response, and probably never will. Below is a slightly modified version of the email I sent them. I’m still waiting on a definitive answer to my questions because as far as I’m concerned, and as far as I know, I followed the proper procedures but couldn’t use the code. Odd

Like many other fortunate individuals, providence was on my side when I
received two valid promotion codes: One I was able to get myself, and
another from my wife.
Just so we’re clear:
I was not trying to generate new promotion codes.
I already had promotion codes before Gandi stopped giving them out.

According to the FAQ posted here (https://ten.gandi.net/faq), codes
distributed between March 1st through 5th must be dedeemed by March 31st. Below is an excerpt:
“How do I use my promo code?
Once you have your promo code, you have until March 31st to log into
gandi.net and to choose the domain name of your choice. On the summary page
of your order, you may enter the promo code. Once you have done this you
will not need to pay for the domain in question.

How long do I have to use my promo codes?
All of the promo codes must be used between the 1st and the 31st of March
2010.”

My wife & I attempted to use our promotion codes between 10PM and 1130PM
Eastern Standard time on March 31st, which is before the deadline according
to the FAQ above. However, on the summary page when we attempted to redeem
the codes, the Gandi system reported we had invalid promotion codes.
Is that normal?
Should the codes have worked between 10PM and 1130PM Eastern Standard Time
on March 31st?

This situation is akin to someone visiting a store at 9PM that’s scheduled
to close at 10PM, but upon their arrival, the store is already closed.
Is that the way the Gandi.Net system and this promotion is supposed to work?

Even though we already received promotion codes between March 1st and March
31st, and I attempted to redeem the codes between March 1st and March 31st,
the Gandi system would not allow us to do so.
Is that the appropriate and expected behavior?

I asked them to please answer the questions and of course, detail where we went wrong so that we can be
sure to follow the appropriate procedures in the future. Naturally, if they determined, that there was a systemic malfunction that night and we did follow the correct process & procedure, I expect they would reach out to me so that we can get this squared up.

With so many positive reviews, I expected at least average or slightly better than average service. While this situation isn’t critical, it has had a negative impact on my view and personal opinion of Gandi.net.

GANDI SUCKS. THEY FREEZE A DOMAIN WITH ONE COMPLAINT… LATE SENDING A PRODUCT AND THEY COMPLAIN TO GANDI…KISS YOUR DOMAIN GOODBYE.

GANDI NEEDS TO LEAVE PLAYING GOD UP TO THEIR GOD GANDI..

Excellent registrar with eye catching website. Best and very responsive DNS management I have ever seen. Only drawback is for your account protection you have only one login password that’s it. They publish your user ID in WHOIS data base which is not good. Customer support is very good.
