Companies Using Google Cloud

We detect Google Cloud on 102,535 domains, including United States Postal Service, LVMH, GlaxoSmithKline. A detection means the technology is present on that domain, which for large organisations is often a single storefront or subdomain rather than a company-wide deployment. Among domains we matched to a company with a resolved industry, the most common is Insurance (15.48%).

We detect 102,535 domains running Google Cloud across our monthly crawl of live business domains. Company data could be matched for 55,613 of them (54.2%), and every company-size, industry and country breakdown on this page describes that matched subset rather than the full detected base. A further 9,860 domains carried a Google Cloud detection previously and no longer do.

We do not publish a market-share figure for Google Cloud in the PaaS category, because we could not compute a denominator we trust for it. We detect it on 102,535 domains; treat that as an absolute count rather than a position in the category.

The top alternatives to Google Cloud include Amazon Web Services (39.98% market share), Vercel (16.64% market share), WordPress.com (8.24% market share), Microsoft Azure (7.5% market share) — measured as a share of the domains we detect running a platform in this category.

The United States leads with 48.59% of enriched domains, the highest US concentration among the three large clouds, though part of that reflects one large American customer cluster. The United Kingdom at 5.65% and Brazil at 5.64% are effectively tied for second, and Japan at 3.08% ranks higher here than on our AWS or Azure profiles.

The most common company size is 1-10 employees, representing 67.82% of the Google Cloud domains we could match to a company record and size — a subset of 55,613 matched companies, not of all 102,535 detected domains. This is followed by 11-50 employees (22.73%) and 51-200 employees (5.75%).

Among the Google Cloud domains we could match to a company with a known founding date, the largest group was founded in the 2010s (39.24%), followed by the 2020s (38.56%). That matched subset is drawn from 55,613 companies and is not representative of all 102,535 detected domains. This suggests Google Cloud is most popular among relatively young companies.

The ideal Google Cloud customer is: Company Size: Under 50 employees, Location: US, UK, Brazil or Germany, Founded: 2010 or later, Industry: Software, IT services, retail, Signal: Google Workspace already in use — based on our analysis of 55,613 enriched companies at TechnologyChecker.io.

It means Google Cloud served that page's response and identified itself in one of three ways: a Google Frontend server header, a Cloud Trace header, or a Cloud Storage header. All three are returned by the site's own response rather than by an embedded third-party file, so each one indicates a direct Google Cloud relationship.

We detect Google Cloud on 102,535 active domains as of August 2026. Treat that as a floor rather than a total. Cloudflare sits in front of 31.16% of the domains we did find, and where a CDN fully terminates the request the origin's headers are replaced, which hides the platform behind it from us entirely.

Because the two are measured to different standards. Around a third of AWS detections come from a clause that can fire on a third party's inline script, while every Google Cloud detection here comes from a header on the site's own response. The gap between 936,363 and 102,535 reflects rule strictness as much as platform size.

It is not really an insurance finding. Insurance shows 15.48%, but reading the domains reveals thousands of individual State Farm agent websites, 96.7% of them served from one Cloud Storage deployment. That is a single customer relationship spread across many domains. Exclude it and Software Development leads at 7.49% instead.

Yes. This page names 50 companies, each re-checked against a live Google Cloud header at the exact hostname where we detected it. The wider TechnologyChecker.io dataset covers 102,535 domains, of which 55,613 are matched to a company record and can be filtered by size, country, industry and co-installed technology.

No, and deliberately so. This profile is a roll-up of three separately measured services rather than one detection, so adding it to the PaaS table would change the denominator every other page in that category uses. For scale it would sit around seventh on roughly 4.2%, but that is an illustration rather than a share.

Mostly more Google. Google Tag Manager appears on 55.44% of these domains, Google Fonts on 51.49%, Google Analytics on 49% and Google Workspace on 24.91%. Firebase appears on 12.61%. Outside Google, Cloudflare is the most common companion at 31.16%, usually sitting in front of the Google Cloud origin.

Firebase is Google's own managed application platform and we detect it separately, so it appears both as a competitor row and as a co-installed technology here. Because Google owns both, movement between them is not competitive churn. The 574 domains that left Firebase for Google Cloud are customers moving up one vendor's product ladder.

It depends which rival you look at. Against AWS, Google Cloud is modestly ahead at 334 domains gained versus 261 lost. Against Vercel it is clearly behind, gaining 187 while losing 471. The largest inbound corridor, 574 from Firebase, is internal consolidation rather than a win taken from a competitor.

The most common reason is a CDN in front of the origin, which replaces the headers we rely on. The second is product mix: BigQuery, Vertex AI, GKE and most data and machine learning workloads leave no trace on a public web page, so a heavy Google Cloud customer can be completely invisible to a web crawl.

Because it names the wrong customer. The Via header appears on around 1.4 million domains, but 75.3% of those are Wix sites. Wix runs its own platform on Google Cloud, so the header identifies Wix's account rather than the site owner's. Including it would have inflated this profile more than tenfold.

TechnologyChecker.io re-crawls its domain corpus monthly and this profile reflects the August 2026 sweep. The verified company list, the Wix sample behind the excluded header and the State Farm spot-checks were all run against live sites in the week the page was published, so those confirmations are current.

By count, overwhelmingly small companies: 90.55% of enriched domains belong to organisations under 50 staff and 1.13% to those above 1,000. TechnologyChecker.io checked whether the large agent-site cluster caused that skew and it did not, since removing the cohort moves the under-ten share only from 67.82% to 66.80%, so the long tail is genuine.
