DotQR vs QR TIGER
QR TIGER has more integrations and gives more codes per dollar. DotQR has no scan caps and routing rules on every plan. Here's an honest side-by-side.
Unsere Artikel sind auf Englisch verfasst.
People compare us because both do dynamic QR codes — print once, change the link later, track scans.
QR TIGER is the bigger platform. More QR types, bulk generation, integrations (Zapier, HubSpot, Google Analytics on higher tiers), geofencing, password protection.
DotQR is narrower. We're built for small businesses that want codes live today without learning a full marketing suite.
Here's the thing: on price per dynamic code, TIGER usually wins. On scan limits and on what every plan includes, DotQR does. Which one matters depends on how you use your codes.
Prices below are indicative. Competitors change plans often — check their site before you buy.
Pricing at a glance
| Plan level | DotQR | QR TIGER (approx.) |
|---|---|---|
| Free | 3 dynamic codes, no scan cap | ~3 dynamic codes, ~500 scans per code |
| Entry paid | €9.99/month (Growth) → 10 dynamic codes | ~$7/month → ~12 dynamic codes |
| Mid tier | €29.99/month (Premium) → 100 dynamic codes, no scan cap | ~$16/month (often yearly billing) → ~200 dynamic codes, unlimited scans |
| Higher tier | Enterprise → unlimited codes, priced with sales | ~$37/month → 600+ dynamic codes |
On codes per dollar, TIGER is ahead at every paid tier. DotQR doesn't cap scans on any plan, and its free codes don't stop counting at 500 scans each.
For a restaurant with 10–20 codes, both free tiers might be enough. For 50–100 active campaigns, compare the mid-tier numbers above — not just the logo on the homepage.
What both do well
- Dynamic QR codes — edit destination after printing
- QR styling (colors, logo, frames)
- Scan analytics on paid plans
- WiFi, website links, PDFs and other common QR types
If you only need "menu on the table + see if anyone scanned," either tool can work.
Where QR TIGER pulls ahead
Be honest about what you need:
- Bulk QR creation at scale — thousands of codes in one batch (Advanced tier and up); DotQR does up to 100 at a time
- Integrations — Zapier, HubSpot, GA on higher plans
- Extra campaign tools — geofencing and other campaign types DotQR doesn't have
- Bigger catalog — more predefined campaign types out of the box
- Brand recognition — TIGER shows up in every "best QR generator" list
If QR is central to your marketing ops and you live in those integrations, TIGER is a logical choice. You're paying for breadth.
Where DotQR pulls ahead
- No scan caps — on any plan, Free included; TIGER's free codes stop at ~500 scans each
- Rules on every plan — send scans somewhere else by device, country or time, or split them over an A/B test, without upgrading
- Simpler UI — less time in settings, more time printing and placing codes
- Straightforward pricing — see our pricing page; no maze of add-ons for basic dynamic + analytics
- EU-focused product — GDPR-minded setup, prices in euros including VAT, sensible defaults for local businesses
We don't try to replace your entire martech stack. We try to make QR codes that work for cafés, shops, freelancers, and small agencies.
What DotQR doesn't have (yet)
So you're not surprised:
- No Zapier / HubSpot / native GA integration today (there is a public API)
- No geofencing; DotQR routes by country, not by a drawn area
- Bulk creation tops out at 100 codes per batch — TIGER is ahead for thousands
If those are must-haves on day one, TIGER wins on features regardless of price.
Who should pick what
Pick QR TIGER if: you're a marketer or agency running many campaigns, you need bulk + integrations, or your team already knows the tool.
Pick DotQR if: you want dynamic codes and analytics without enterprise complexity, you want routing rules without an upgrade and no scan caps, or you're a small business that just needs menus, WiFi, links and reviews working this week.
We're biased — it's our product. But the decision isn't "more features = always better." It's whether you'll use those features.
Bottom line
TIGER = more tools, more learning curve, often the right call for power users.
DotQR = fewer codes per dollar, but no scan caps and routing rules on every plan, in a clean dashboard.
