Is it possible to purchase with an API.. because that would be a gamechanger (if you can support your 500+ tlds).

#32Since this seems to be a Gandi reseller, I should mention that I really like the way Gandi handles whois privacy, with my name in the clear but my contact details hidden, so there's no uncertainty about ownership if there's ever a dispute. I keep my most important domains with Gandi for this reason. The problem is that they only support whois privacy with some TLDs and not others. They cite registry restrictions, but the same TLDs are often available with whois privacy from other registrars. If a reseller could fix this situation, that would be very helpful.

The key feature seems to be "Manage domains from different registrars in a single app"
Do that many people maintain domains on multiple registrars? Seems to me like the kind of person for whom this is a problem would have already simplified their own life by picking a single registrar.
Nuage has a very simple UI (much easier to use compared to gandi, imo)

#34What does that mean? TLDs?
Looks very nice in presentation/style. I'm not seeing what value the service provides over using a registrar directly. I've never had to enter my details multiple times after I've registered for one domain at a registrar - I can just select the details that are on file for any subsequent domains.
"We find you good domain prices on the internet" tells me that I should go elsewhere for the best prices. From common english usage, "best" is so often paired with "prices" that to see the word "good" coupled with pricing in marketing speak, one immediately wonders why it isn't "best".

#35Really like the light touch to the website design and copy. But it may be too light as I've clicked on two links to find out how it adds value to my life and I still don't know. Some first impressions: * I want to enter something where it says 'your domain name' under features. My domain name what? This looks like an input box but it's not. I'm left confused. * Under pricing, "All our domains including" should read "…
Looking at the element, is is an input box, but disabled. Enabling it by modifying it lets me type in it, but not do anything. I'm guessing it's something that works when you sign in, but that's not remotely clear.
And I'm not creating an account just to search domain names, when there are a million sites that let me do that without registering.

...and it let's you manage them from the same place.
Why would I want to use different services? I (personally) use godaddy, my company uses namecheap. Both seem to be doing fine and we check in on them once a year.

#37No word on private registration, which is essential these days if you don't want your address and phone number posted online for anyone to use in a social engineering attack. Since this seems to be a Gandi reseller, I should mention that I really like the way Gandi handles whois privacy, with my name in the clear but my contact details hidden, so there's no uncertainty about ownership if there's ever a dispute.

WhoisGuard is what you're looking for and apparently it's available for "all domains".
