Answer: Why Re-invent the Wheel?
Even though HEXONET is known for engineering expertise and technical excellence throughout the domain industry, being a registry operator is currently not in our plans. This is because HEXONET believes that the current set of registry operators are best suited to service the up and coming new Top-Level-Domains. The leading registry operators have the knowledge, infrastructure, capacity, and most importantly, the experience for any new TLD to achieve success.
HEXONET has achieved our own success by working with registry operators in innovative ways. We continue to run a highly reliable, lightning fast registrar platform that offers a vast selections of TLDs (one of the widest selections industry-wide). Additionally, we plan to fully integrate our powerful Registrar Operations Center (RegistrarOC) solution with all the new Top-Level-Domains.
For HEXONET, success of any TLD, be it new or existing, requires success throughout the deliver chain – registry, registry operator, and registrar. And our commitment is to work with the registry operators so that HEXONET can be one of the best at the registrar level. Our goal has always been to be the best registrar for resellers and to build the best turn-key solutions for registrars (RegistrarOC) so that anyone can quickly add any TLD (new or existing) without the engineering headache and overhead.
Many companies utterly fail by trying to do too much or chase after something new. HEXONET has been on same course for over a decade, which is to be an exceedingly good registrar and domain platform developer. The road ahead for HEXONET is straight and narrow.
