Some ideas:

Google's Cloud DNS: https://cloud.google.com/dns/pricing

Route 53: https://aws.amazon.com/route53/

Dns Made Easy: http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com/

Dnsperf.com is also a good resource to compare speed and reliability of DNS providers.

I've been using Route53 for the last 3 years, and I'll vouch for it. It's pretty sweet -- the UI is clear, but allows for a decent amount of configuration, and it's reliable. It also integrates with major registrars (GANDI's a big one) and lets you manage domain ownership via an AWS account -- and personally, I prefer unified bills.

I'll anti-vouch for Route53 for personal use. I use AWS pretty broadly, but with something like DNS, I like having a little bit more support if things go wrong. Amazon won't do much without a $upport contract.

It's fine for business use with a support contract.

Route53 is awesome. I personally wrap it in git - https://dns-api.com/ - and remove the per-query pricing to provide stability.

Not sure if it's the same service, but if you're using Google as your registrar, DNS seems to be included... would be surprised if it wasn't the same infrastructure.

I've heard good things about AWS Route53 as well.

Google support confirmed that their Domains DNS is the same infra as the Cloud DNS

Yeah... google domains' management tools are what got me to switch pretty much everything over to them... some domains you can move to them after registration, but can't get new ones for the given tld.

I can't say how happy I've been with their mostly out of the way tooling... the two times I needed support using the callback option worked out for me. Far easier than getting support for anything else google, but it's been great so far...

Even tried the dyndns for an a-record, which has worked well enough.
