DoDomain vs Entri
Entri is an established domain-connection vendor; DoDomain is a newer, deliberately smaller product focused on the DNS connection layer. This page sticks to facts we can source: DoDomain's numbers come from its live plan definitions, and Entri's from entri.com as retrieved on 2026-07-20 — check their site for current figures.
Pricing at a glance
| DoDomain | Entri | |
|---|---|---|
| Free tier | $0 forever — 50 verified connections/mo | None published |
| Starting paid price | $29/mo (Pro — 500 connections/mo) | $249/mo (Connect, 600 connections/yr — per entri.com/plans, retrieved 2026-07-20) |
| Higher tiers | $99/mo (Scale — 2,500 connections/mo, unlimited apps) | $749/mo Connect + Power bundle; Growth/Premium/Enterprise not publicly priced (per entri.com/plans, retrieved 2026-07-20) |
The two products also meter differently: DoDomain's connection allowances are per month, while Entri's published plans state domain connections per year — compare against your own expected connection volume, not headline prices alone.
How the connect flows differ
DoDomain routes every domain through the best available tier. Cloudflare-hosted zones get a true one-click: the user authorizes via Cloudflare OAuth and DoDomain writes and verifies the records through the Cloudflare API. Domain Connect providers get protocol support — discovery, template compilation, signed applies — with one-click availability depending on the user's DNS provider having enabled DoDomain's templates. Everyone else gets provider-specific guided setup: dashboard deep links, host-format quirks, and step-by-step instructions.
Every tier ends the same way: verification against the domain's authoritative nameservers (never a UI checkbox), an HMAC-SHA256-signed webhook to your server, and free continuous re-verification afterwards — DoDomain keeps rechecking connected domains and notifies you on drift or recovery at no extra cost, on every plan including Free.
You integrate over a plain-HTTPS REST API (/api/v1) or the zero-code hosted connect page; an embeddable widget exists but is not yet published to npm, so the hosted flow is the supported path today.
When Entri may fit better
Honest flip side: Entri has been in this market longer, advertises automatic connections across 50+ DNS providers, and sells managed infrastructure on top of the connect step — its Power and Secure products provide domain routing and automatic SSL provisioning (per entri.com). If you want one vendor to host customer domains and terminate TLS for you, DoDomain does not offer that: it is the DNS layer only, and TLS terminates at your own infrastructure.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a free Entri alternative?
Yes. DoDomain's Free plan is $0 forever and includes 50 verified domain connections per month with every connect tier: Cloudflare one-click (OAuth), Domain Connect where the user's DNS provider supports it, and guided manual setup with authoritative-DNS verification. Entri publishes no free tier — its listed pricing starts at $249/month (per entri.com/plans, retrieved 2026-07-20).
What does Entri cost?
As published on entri.com/plans (retrieved 2026-07-20), Entri's Connect plan starts at $249/month with 600 domain connections per year, and a Connect + Power bundle is listed at $749/month. Its Growth, Premium, and Enterprise tiers are not publicly priced. Check entri.com for current figures.
How is DoDomain different from Entri?
DoDomain is deliberately scoped to the DNS connection layer: a REST API and hosted connect flow that mint a session, detect the user's DNS provider, apply records one-click on Cloudflare, guide manual setup elsewhere, verify against authoritative DNS, notify your server with signed webhooks, and keep re-verifying connected domains at no extra cost. It does not proxy your traffic or provision SSL — DNS points at your infrastructure and TLS terminates at your host. Entri also sells hosting and SSL products (Power, Secure) on top of its connect widget (per entri.com).
Does DoDomain support Domain Connect like Entri?
DoDomain ships Domain Connect protocol support — discovery, template compilation, and signed applies — but one-click availability depends on the user's DNS provider having enabled DoDomain's templates. When a provider hasn't, the session automatically falls back to guided manual records with the same authoritative-DNS verification, so the flow always completes.
What do DoDomain's paid plans cost?
Pro is $29 per month with 500 verified connections per month; Scale is $99 per month with 2,500. The Free plan stays $0 forever.
Does DoDomain provision SSL certificates?
No. DoDomain writes and verifies the DNS that points a customer's domain at your infrastructure; TLS terminates at your host (Vercel, Cloudflare for SaaS, Caddy, nginx — the SSL guide at dodomain.io/docs/ssl covers common setups). If you want a vendor to also host and certificate customer domains for you, that is what Entri sells as Power and Secure (per entri.com).
