Really pleased with DSR as a new commercial operator. Huge help within the group and great member only discounts on kit. Keep up the great work team.

After much research, I am shocked to discover this is basically a load of BS - its just an advertising platform and nothing else. Drone Safe Register is a name that means nothing. People need to know... See more

I have been a member of Drone Safe…

I have been a member of Drone Safe Register since the beginning of 2020, the platform is great for networking and a go to place for information and advice from the other knowledgeable members.
Mark is certainly the driving force and is great at communicating with the members, I have only had one direct job from the platform so far but have received work via networking with the other members.

Network of Professionals

My insurance business - Qlaims - has been a customer of Drone Safe for a couple of years now and service has been consistently excellent. Having access to a one stop shop of national drone professionals means we can cater for the needs of our clients with complete confidence. Enquires are usually answered within minutes and deployments are often same day.
Mark himself is a real go-to guy and If he doesn’t know the answer himself he’ll know where to find it

More than just a register...

I've been with DSR from day one and have seen it go from strength to strength. Mark works tirelessly for his members and the community is invaluable and super tight.

It's the first port of call for most of us when we have questions or need assistance on a job so keep up the great work Mark (and the team)!

Unless you live on your emails you’ll never get a job

Unless you live on your emails you will never get any work from this directory.

I’m told that quotes are sent out to the nearest 4 operators and the first to reply gets the work. The SEO for listings is poor, I rank higher with a wedding website!

It might be useful for some, but not all.

Not at all happy or impressed with this.

Now we have a required test to take and register, it voids this website totally which is used as a sales platform for services and drone kit at rather heavy prices, if you can get them to answer you!

EDIT-took drone safe 3 years to reply to the feedback I left 🤣 prices my point. As for the belittling reply literally looking down their noses. Ironically, their reply shows how out of touch they are. I was fully CAA approved until recently and decided to step back and aim for retirement.

I find their condescending reply rather fitting, justifying my initial feedback.

Reply from dronesaferegister.org.uk

Hi Ally S, we have always been a platform for CAA Approved & Qualiified Drone Operators with a valid Commercial Drone Insurance, sadly this will stay the same forever as we know proper companies will always want to hire proper pilots. Our drone kit may be expensive but that is the cost of it, we are always cheaper than our competitors if you are a DSR Member and we have saved thousands for our members over the years. We are always available via telephone, email or live chat, 6 days a week from 9am-9pm. Please get in contact with us at info@dronesaferegister.org.uk or call us. We would love to resolve this for you.

'Thrown my money down the drain' is all…

'Thrown my money down the drain' is all i can think when I talk about Drone Safe Register. The most expensive website I ever signed up to. I was so excited once I got my pfco and immediately registered on DSR. So far, 3 months on, I have has 42 profile views and one quote request which because I didn't reply to the quote the same day, didn't go anywhere, I was too late to even get the work.
I get more visits to my website off instagram, fb and google than the hundreds I paid to be listed on DSR. I did have a chat to someone from the team and they told me 'theres just not a lot of drone work out there' - SO WHY CHARGE HUNDREDS TO BE LISTED ON YOUR SITE THEN?? Shall NOT be relisting on this waste of money site.

Not impressed

Really quite amazed at the lack of service and assistance on this website. I have sent messages 5 times now and got no reply. Not entirely sure why I bothered joining it in all honesty but they won't get a second years membership from me.

Things need to change for the better and start answering questions?

I am surprised when you have a TV show Dragons Den and Peter Jones investing in something like this and the lack of assistance and help is quite frankly, non existant :(

What has angered me even more is I changed my auto renewal to off, I have just visited the site to find it turned back on, so time to cancel the DD if they are playing that game. Sorry but what a rip off, they wont even answer my emails :( Total waste of time and money.
