Doster Inc |

Dotster's quality of service went down strongly over the past 10 years. They work anonymously and hide behind corporate identity to give clients confusing responses, if any. After one decade of business relationship, they still do not know their client. They are likely to suspend your domain to their sole liking, with no prior notice, and with no serious basis. Unreliable provider, to be preferably avoided. |

TSCF Rating For Duke University
The TSCF rating sits at 56.
Universities can create a favorable environment for pedagogic performance, but the latter lies in a last resort on individual staff and students. In addition, performance evaluation in this sector is widely subjective, depending notably on the opinion of employers, the public image and fame of these organizations, and their involvement in partnerships with other actors.
To qualify for evaluation, a University must offer the whole range of the degrees (undergraduate - graduate - PhD). Higher education institutions that focus on a particular segment of science or on the application of science are taken into account only if: - they cover a sufficiently broad spectrum of disciplines and areas, - they practice fundamental research and teaching.
Our evaluation criteria include:
- Quality of education (student/faculty ratio, pedagogic methodology, logistics, income and budget) for 50%,
- Support to research (research budget, faculty involvement, patents, indexation and citation per faculty) for 25%,
- And organization development (HR policy, institutional income, international outlook including faculty, research and programs) for 25%. |

DG research had developed an interesting academic evaluation methodology in the past, but this methodology has not been properly updated and developed. The organization is not enough demanding what regards the quality of the projects it funds, their relevance and their practical impact. Overall efficiency of the organization has been seriously affected by job cuts and mismanagement. |

Facebook |
Blue |
BB- |
The question whether this site effectively contributes to the creation and strengthening of social ties remains controversial, as is its respect of the users' privacy and the use that it makes of the user's contacts. Facebook engaged into a policy consisting in restricting the capacity of users to contact other users that they do not already know - which affects their capability to generate new contacts, and eventually diminishes the site's added value for the development of their social network. It would have been more appropriate to give to those who do not wish to be contacted the option to prevent new contacts. |
