Is it one that you just use and works just fine? Or one that has proven to be reliable and responsible if they do a mistake and only want to satisfy you as a customer?

I use them too, but have a few complaints and am thinking about switching.

  1. Dynamic DNS doesn't support ipv6 addresses

  2. You have to have a $50 account balance to use DNS based dynamic dns

  3. Buggy DNS editing. (Try to create a SRV record then edit it later. It never works properly. Always have to delete and make a new one)
