Moniker LLC, dba Moniker.com is part of KeyDrive SA and its registrar group, Key-Systems/ Moniker (KSM-Group).
In a short ceremony earlier today, the well-established domain registrar received the prestigious “Registrar most likely to Move Domains Away from” award, shared only with Registerfly.
“This award, however painful of a reminder it might be, energizes us all to create a better, bigger Moniker – what a motivation!” said the VP of Product Development, Klaus Schnell.
“If we failed to create a good user interface and a glitch-free control panel, it’s because we will make it happen eventually, no question about that,” added Schnell.
The 16″ statuette of a Phoenix rising from its ashes, symbolizes the rebirth of Moniker from its recent redesign, that led to hundreds of customers and thousands of domains sustaining rather long transaction issues.
Hopefully, Moniker will utilize this award to restore its former glory and hire more American database developers; currently, the work is done by Helmut, Dirk and Otto in Stuttgart and Luxemburg.
The symbolic award statuette was produced by Bobbleheads, Inc.
It’s really sad to see what happened to the once great company that Monte built.
