wow! new enom look!

[Togoodhlth]

The site is now so slow for me that I wonder how we could be talking about the same thing. The new menus totally suck.

Wow strange. I just registered a few names and took less time than normal.

The old design was absulutely horrible but after years of using it navigating was pretty easy.
The new design is much MUCH cleaner. Has less of the horrible brownish orange color.

Hope the speed wasnt just a fluke.

The menu suck! I hate the menu!

Hope that with this new change, their DNS service has also been souped up for reliability, redundancy and speed. I absolutely depend on it.

Same here - like being stuck in quicksand.

I hated the colors of the old site, but it was simple and efficient and this new version seems to have problems being like that

 

[Stinos]

i like it. Very clean but still fast.

it will take time to get used to it. Overall, probably better than the old site, but since I was so used to navigating the old one, it seems more functional to me.
Seems slower also from here.

I dont like the way they adcertise club drop right there, smack in the middle. It opens all kinds of doors to endusers to think they can enter the market, and make the prices sky rocket...
Thats my most serious concern.
The old site didnt have CD so emphasized in the main page. In fact, it wasnt there.

Nice and clean look, but there is a learning curve on the navigation.

Site is so slow though.

 

[stuff]

Very nice look.

 

[dax]

I like it. It has style...

Pros:
Cons:
They did away with the domain search at the top of each page. This is very useful for someone like myself who is always searching for domains.

I totally agree with you on this. They need to put that search box back at the top of each page. Having to scroll down to the bottom of the page after each domain search in order to do another search is just annoying and unnecessary. That was just stupid design IMHO.

Very nice. I was never a fan of the old enom design. It looked like it was stuck in the 90's.

Not as painfully slow as Dotster or Godaddy - you can grow a beard waiting for those two to load.

Anybody tried using it in Firefox?

One complaint I have so far is trying to locate their contact info. The average
newbie will surely have a hard time looking for it.

Yup...I've been using firefox Only, for the past year or so and it seems ok.
Nice clean look but it was initially very slow to load, seems to have improved though.

One complaint I have so far is trying to locate their contact info. The average
newbie will surely have a hard time looking for it.

Interestingly enough it's one of the first pages I look for in a website and it's quite easy actually, I always look in the About Us first.

I agree!!

(I've got the beard to prove it ;-) Godaddy used to be my principal registrar)

Yep, Firefox is all I use. Works fine in FF but havent viewed in IE.

Well, nobody likes change... Took me 2 years to get used to the old version.. :goofy:

It is still quick and if you dont log in you can still do a quick domain availablity check so, along with it being just 4 characters in length, its still the quickest way for me to check domain names...

 

[seeker]

one of the new annoying lack of features is being able to place the domain you are searchiong for on top.
Once you do it now, in order to enter another one, you have to re enter it at the bottom. The old version had both options.

Have been in and out over 5 times today, starting to get used to navigating the new layout like where the hell did my transfer orders go. I used to know the old layout on the back of my hand. But I must agree, the old layout looked like something from the 90s. The new layout looks a lot more modern, and the menus remind me of Directi's drop down menus.
