What do you like best about MXToolbox?

Very much lightweight, DNS, MX or Whois lookup tool in one place, no need to reload or visit other pages.

Easy to identify blacklists for domains and ip addresses.

Although, SMTP diagnostics, Domain Health, IP address checker, Password Generator, Ping and Monitoring services available within one place.

More then 39 diagnostics/ DNS Management/ SMTP or Blacklist checking tools available for use. That's why i don't have to look for another tools to use for network and domain managements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MXToolbox?

Free features has limitations. 1 monitoring for one account for free accounts. that's why needed separate accounts for several domains. Maybe that would be great if increase the account limits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MXToolbox:

If you are looking for one tool that could handle several Network monitoring and Domain / DNS or other checking features, you could try the MXToolbox. They have most of the monitoring and tracing products that will help you to identify your DNS related issues very well.

So, try MXToolbox for all in one diagnostics tool for you / your company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish that there was a tool to easily look at past DNS Zone History easily and that does not seem to be there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MXToolbox?

I actually used this frequently as a web host tech support rep. The ability to receive alerts the exact moment you are blacklisted is awesome. And it's not just for blacklist monitoring, there are several other host/domain tools like dns check, whois, mx record lookup, and many more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MXToolbox?

They're prices for an upgraded account seem to be a little high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MXToolbox:

Give it a shot! It's very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
