I like that it is easy to use for my small network of servers (8). It works well with other products such as Bind which makes configuration easier when you have more than one server in your setup. If there are any issues - they will be fixed quickly so don't let this put off from trying out powerdns! We needed something simple yet powerful without having too much overhead/learning curve required by our users who would need little help configuring their own dnsservers if we were not managing them already via bind9 or another product. The benefits include ease-of-use especially at initial install but also being able to manage multiple zones easily across several domains within an organisation using zonefiles rather then writing individual A records manually each time new content comes online etc. This has saved us hours per week compared against previous methodologies.
