Services
DNS as a Service
Reliable, sovereign DNS — included free, one vendor, one bill.
Overview
Authoritative DNS for your domains, managed from the same portal as the rest of your platform and included free on every account. Redundant nameservers in separate Canadian regions keep your domains resolving — without adding another vendor or another invoice.
What's included
- Included free on every account
- Redundant nameservers across two regions
- Managed from one portal with everything else
- Your domains, kept in Canada
- No extra vendor, no extra bill
Why choose DNS as a Service?
Included free on every account — unlimited zones, unlimited records, unlimited queries.
Free, with no asterisks
Unlimited zones, records, and queries. Route 53 charges per zone and per million queries. We charge nothing for DNS.
Full record-type support
A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV, NS, SOA, and CAA — everything a production domain needs.
One portal, one bill
Manage every domain alongside the rest of your platform. No second vendor, no second invoice.
Sovereign and independent
Authoritative nameservers ZSoftly runs in Canada — not resold on top of a hyperscaler.
