Looking for feedback: what’s the most annoying part of managing your domain portfolio?

[arnauddsj]

Hey everyone,

I’ve been spending the past months building a domain portfolio manager called UnifyDom. It lets you centralise your domains from multiple registrars, track renewals, and compare costs.

I know there are already a few tools out there, but I still see people using spreadsheets or juggling dashboards. I’m trying to understand what’s still missing or too painful in the existing options. It's read-only at the moment, it doesn’t change any registrar settings. I wanted to keep it simple and 100% secure while focusing on visibility, organisation, and cost tracking first.

I’d really appreciate hearing from domain investors or agencies here:

– If a domain management tool could save you 10 hours a month, where should it focus?
– What’s the most time-consuming or frustrating part of keeping portfolios organized?
– If a manager like UnifyDom could do one thing perfectly, what should it be?

I’m inviting a few people from the forum who manage 50+ domains to use UnifyDom free for at least 6 months while I collect honest feedback and improve it.

Thanks in advance!
Arnaud

Bonjour Arnaud, welcome to DNForum!!

Is it https://unifydom.com/? .. you might wish to edit the link in your post.

looks very very neat!! is this a v2 of tldspy.com?

 

[arnauddsj]

Yes !! thank you I didn't see the link was broken.
https://tldspy.com was build in the making of unifydom actually. Unifydom is using tldspy api to get pricing from registrars I'm still actively updating tldspy.com as a stand alone project as well.

Tldspy is very cool a similar tool is also on our “to be developed” list, though we are miles away from even coming close to that ( busy with other stuff). Great, great job!!

That’s a solid idea, Arnaud — portfolio management across multiple registrars is still a real pain point. Even advanced investors I talk to still rely on spreadsheets or messy dashboards.


From what I’ve seen, the biggest time-waster is renewal tracking + cost optimization. Especially when domains are spread across registrars with inconsistent APIs and pricing.


If UnifyDom can make renewal visibility + cost comparison effortless — and maybe integrate “expiring soon” alerts by registrar — that alone could save hours each month.


Really like the read-only approach too. Keeps security concerns low while testing the core value.

Great initiative!

Seamless API syncing and bulk renewal forecasting could really set your tool apart for portfolio users.

Spreadsheet for me. Nice and simple. I don't need much information on domains, mainly renewal date and registrar.

Hello Sorry I thought I had notification on what's happening here...
I've made a huge update tonight with lot of improvement, you can fields with your domain value and acquisition price, I made some alerts available for the free plans as well, watchlist, portfolio export and more !

What do you call cost comparison exactly?

That makes sense. For a small list a spreadsheet is the simplest tool and it works well if you update it regularly.

The only reason I built automated renewals and alerts is because as soon as the list grows or spreads across several registrars, expiry dates and price changes get hard to keep track of manually. Even one missed renewal can cost more than a whole year of tooling.

Out of curiosity, how often do you review your sheet to make sure nothing slipped through the cracks?
If there's something your spreadsheet does better than most tools, I'd love to hear it.

For now I try to stay out of APIs that could change domain configuration or make orders for the users, just as a security concern
