PROXY PROVIDER
COMPARISONS
Every comparison here is built the same way: facts read from the other vendor’s own pages on a stated date, structural differences rather than prices that go stale, and an explicit section on when you should stay where you are.
We do not publish performance benchmarks for competitors — here is why.
Prox’Easy vs Bright Data
Bright Data is the largest proxy provider in the market and it is good at being that. This page is for the case where that is the problem — where you want to start this afternoon without a compliance review or a monthly commitment.
Read the comparison →Prox’Easy vs Oxylabs
Oxylabs sells a serious, well-documented network with real engineering behind it. The gap it leaves is at the entry point: every plan is a monthly subscription, there is no pay-as-you-go tier, and every customer answers a KYC questionnaire before getting access.
Read the comparison →Prox’Easy vs Webshare
Webshare is the easiest place in this category to start — a standing free tier, no credit card, no sales call. We are not going to pretend otherwise. Where it stops fitting is mobile: if you need a dedicated 4G or 5G carrier IP, that is not a product Webshare sells.
Read the comparison →Prox’Easy vs Decodo
If you are searching for a Smartproxy alternative: Smartproxy is now Decodo. The company rebranded on 22 April 2025 and smartproxy.com redirects to decodo.com. Same company, same network — so a comparison against Smartproxy is a comparison against Decodo.
