There are two honest ways to compare mobile proxy providers. Read both pricing pages carefully and match the units, or run the same batch through both and count. This page does the first and tells you how to do the second.
What we know about Proxybrothers, and what we do not
Proxybrothers trades at proxybrothers.com. They compete with us as a mobile proxy provider.
We price the providers we can source and date, and Proxybrothers is not currently one of them. The rest of this page is about what to check when you read their pricing yourself.
The four figures worth copying down are the rate without a commitment, the smallest purchase allowed, what happens to unspent balance, and whether a failed request still costs money.
Age, and why it matters here
The domain was registered on 7 November 2022, through Cronon GmbH, which makes it about 3 years old. We pulled that from the registry on 9 September 2026. The current registration term ends 7 November 2026.
This proves nothing about the product. It is a cheap check against the one failure mode that costs buyers real money in this market, which is paying a provider that will not exist in six months.
What you still do not know after reading their site
Why 195 countries tells you nothing
Almost every provider claims almost every country. What differs is depth, and depth decides whether a single city or a single carrier is usable. No published figure tells you that.
Per gigabyte against per address
Work out what your job actually consumes, in gigabytes or in concurrent addresses, before you look at any price. Without that number, no two quotations in this market can be compared at all.
Networks age, so re-test quarterly
Supply changes hands quietly in this industry. The network behind a brand can be replaced with no announcement, which is why a benchmark is a perishable good and a re-test is cheap insurance.
The two of us, on the questions that matter
Set the two side by side on the questions that decide the outcome, rather than on feature counts:
| Question to ask | Proxybrothers | HProxy |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | Not verified by us, read their page | From $0.44/GB, pay as you go |
| Does unused balance expire? | Not published clearly, ask before paying | Never |
| Minimum commitment | Worth confirming in writing before you commit | None |
| Identity checks | Read their current terms | Card orders are screened, and verification is sometimes requested |
| Targeting | Worth confirming in writing before you commit | Country, city and ISP |
| Free way to evaluate | Read their current terms | Free proxy list and proxy checker |
Six rows is enough. Longer comparison tables in this market are usually padded with features nobody chooses on, which makes them look thorough and read as noise.
What to do instead of reading more comparisons
The steps below take about ten minutes and settle the question properly.
- Put a few dollars on each account. Trials are fine for a first look, but paid traffic is what you will actually be buying.
- Run them against the site you actually care about, using the code you actually run, within the same hour.
- Record the success rate and the data consumed for the identical batch on each side.
- Check some of the addresses yourself for country, ASN and type before you trust the label on the plan.
- Choose on the measurement, not the marketing, and expect the answer to change within a year.
Comparable providers
We hold the same record for these, and the same honest limits apply to each:
- Foxyproxy alternatives
- Gridpanel alternatives
- HydraProxy alternatives
- Iparchitect alternatives
- Iproxy alternatives
- Keyproxy alternatives
What we sell, stated plainly
Our position is narrow. Residential from $0.44 per GB, no subscription, no expiry on the balance, and a public record of what our free network actually does. A provider unwilling to be measured is telling you something, and so is one that asks to be.
