I have not yet tested many registrars, but from what I've heard those are good:
gandi.net joker.com godaddy.com (seen a lot of bad reviews too), registrar.amazon.com, Googledomains.com (now Squarespacedomains), gkg.net Misk.com ait.com dynadot.com
MarkMonitor.com ComLaude.com (Corporate Domain Name registrars)
What I've used:
Cloudflare, NameCheap, NameSilo, SpaceShip
I liked NameCheap and Cloudflare but the thing that annoys me about Cloudflare is that I can't change nameservers with them.
NameSilo is good but I can't set up domain defender due to me having signed up with my google which sucks.
I personally don't like SpaceShip's UI but they are cheap asf.
I am unsure what I should choose there are so many good domain name registrars, and TrustPilot reviews aren't that helpful.
EDIT: I fixed a sentence due to it being confused but what I meant Cloudflare Name servers aren't changeable.

How do I choose the right domain registrar?
While price is a big factor, there are also other areas to consider when choosing the right domain registrar. These include customer support, security, and effortless account management. All of which come as standard with Namecheap — alongside a great price, of course.

What is the safest domain registrar?
When it comes to safety and security, TLD registrars like IONOS, GoDaddy, and Hostinger are all on pretty even ground. All must follow exacting standards to maintain their status with ICANN. These standards include providing optional domain privacy and securing your domain registration with features to deter would-be domain thieves from attempting to steal your domain. They also offer other means of locking your domain to prevent transfers.
I just started at a very small company and will be taking over most of the IT along with my other duties. Basically the first office person for a construction company.
Currently the owner uses GoDaddy for domain registration, email server and website hosting. They are currently on an Exchange server and want to be on Workspace but didn't have the tech knowledge to set it up.
I found a fairly decent guide to set up the exchange server to forward to Google using the "application impersonation" setting in the exchange server through godaddy.
But my real question is. If you had the opportunity to start from scratch, what would you tell someone is the best platform to set up, domain registration, website hosting, and email server? I've never used godaddy and my personal domains are registered a proxied through cloudflare.
We plan to be a Workspace company. Well likely go full unifi for hardware when we buy our shop in the fall. I'm on the fence about setting up a local NAS and a VPN vs just keeping everything in the cloud. But most estimating software really is intended to be set up on a SQL database thats locally hosted pulling plan set PDFs from a NAS.
