We've been using Bind and ISC DHCP (and Windows DHCP and DNS) for a very long time.
Motivations for us moving to INFOBLOX included being able to delegate zones to less-skilled (and even non-IT) people, better control over almost 700 domains :-( and integration with multiple AD domains. We did look into Route53 and other hosted DNS solutions too (for our external DNS), but that wouldn't have solved all the internal DNS/DHCP issues. I'm with Dan, though. It sounds like the primary driver is a GUI?
