Google DNS vs NETVECTOR: What to Compare

At a glance

Both Google Public DNS and NETVECTOR support DNS over HTTPS (DoH) and DNS over TLS (DoT). The main differences are business model, data use, and plan structure. Google is free and monetizes through its broader ecosystem; NETVECTOR is privacy-first, with free, Pro, and enterprise plans and no use of DNS data for advertising.

Logging and data use

Google’s DNS is subject to its general privacy policy and data practices; query data can support other Google services. NETVECTOR does not monetize or repurpose your DNS data for ads or product. We do not log individual DNS queries; we use aggregate metrics only, so compliance and procurement have clear answers.

Plans and limits

Google Public DNS has no formal tiers or published rate limits for business. NETVECTOR has free, Pro, and enterprise plans with explicit per-token, per-IP, and daily limits. Enterprise adds dedicated endpoints; SLA terms can be included in enterprise contracts. If you need predictable capacity or isolation, NETVECTOR is the better fit.

When to choose which

Choose Google DNS if you want a free, well-known resolver and accept its data policy. Choose NETVECTOR if you need plan-based limits, no request logging, or a provider that doesn’t tie DNS to an ad business. For enterprises, NETVECTOR’s dedicated endpoint and SLA options in contracts make it the logical choice.
