Hello,
Efficient IP uses bind (+ nsd/unbound) as the DNS server.
One major difference between Efficient IP and bind is when you want to delegate
the zone configuration to users and groups. I think it's called role based
management.So let's say you want team1 to have read/write access to the zone
team1.cyberia.net.sa, team2 to team2.cyberia.net.sa... on one server.You can
have team2 to be able to view all the content of the zone team1.cyberia.net.sa
and so on.I don't think it's possible to do this on bind only / unixThere are
granular rights.
The second thing it that DHCP, DNS, IPAM work together. You can automate the IP
reservation and the DNS record creation for example.
The ability to import/export data from csv or API SOAP/Rest
Infoblox and Bluecat are other similar products along with a few others.
etc.

We tested Bluecat, Infoblox, Solarwinds and EfficientIP solutions. In
the end we went with EfficentIP for our IPAM solution. We don't run
their DNS servers but do use their DHCP package on our own servers.
When we reviewed the major players EfficientIP had the most
versatility in how one could run and setup their products. We still
run our own DNS servers using BIND. Our DNS servers get their zone
files from our EfficientIP server. EfficientIP offer hardware, VMs and
packages for DNS and DHCP. We chose to only use their IPAM VM server
and DHCP package. This is partially to keep from being reliant on a
single vendor. EfficientIP offers a lot of customization, be it you
modifying things or paying them to create them for you. We have done
both.
They are using ISC BIND and DHCP under the hood. In the case of DHCP
they are running their own branch of DHCP to leverage some features
they wanted that ISC didn't provide. The biggest being they can HUP
DHCP instead of restarting it when a config change it made. DNS is
still standard BIND as far as I am aware.
We are very happy with EfficientIP and wouldn't hesitate recommending them.
