I just got the email notification from MYNIC. They are finally improving their system in key areas based on the opinions and comments from their customers. Exactly who these customers are I wouldn’t know, but with the new system:
- a Registrant can apply for multiple domain names in one submission.
- a Registrant may register up to 5 years
- a Contact Person with the same Contact Code can perform multiple domain name transaction such as modification, deletion and transfer.
- a domain name to be transferred to a new Registrant, is required to make payment before it is registered.
The new system will be implemented and launched on February 1, 2010.
Now, I really welcome the upgrade and really hope it’s an improvement. Because last I remember having to use MYNIC for any administration, I found:
- It’s troublesome to login and edit the domain.
- There’s too many things to remember from:
- Registration number
- MYNIC ID
- Domain ID
- Technical ID…you get the picture.
- You’re forced to register with 3rd parties instead of direct.
- The manual or help documents don’t really help much.
And a whole lot more of usability factors which I’ve peeves with. Last I wrote about MYNIC, I reviewed how their new website launch missed improving many key areas in the first place.
What would you like to see improved in MYNIC’s system?
