Most pages titled "SimplyNode alternative" are affiliate lists with the payout order baked in. This one is written by a rival, which is a different bias and an easier one to correct for, because you can check every number we print.
The record we hold
SimplyNode operates from simplynode.io.
What we do not hold is a current, sourced price for SimplyNode. Rather than print a figure we cannot stand behind, this page leaves it out and tells you what to look for when you read their page yourself.
Copy down the entry rate, the commitment attached to the cheapest rate, the minimum top-up and the expiry rule. Those four turn a marketing figure into something you can compare.
What is on their front page
On 9 September 2026 their homepage carried the title "SimplyNode - Your Trusted Proxy Solutions Provider".
Also on the page, stated plainly:
The product lines named on that page are residential, datacenter, mobile and SOCKS5. They advertise 185 countries or locations. Payment methods mentioned: PayPal and crypto. The page offers some form of free trial. Support is advertised as around the clock. A refund or money-back term is mentioned. We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.
Those are claims, and claims are free. They earn their place here only because the date makes them checkable later.
The domain record
The domain was registered on 12 January 2024, through NameCheap, Inc, which makes it about 2 years old. Those dates come from a registry query on 23 April 2026. The Internet Archive holds 15 snapshots of the site, the earliest from May 2024. Their registration is booked through 12 January 2027.
Age is not quality. A long registration does not make a network good, and a new one does not make it bad. What it does rule out is the shortest-lived pattern in this market, which is a site that appears, sells, and is gone inside a year.
What they have built around the product
We crawled 672 pages of their site and found 292 blog pages, 197 location pages and 20 use-case pages.
Read it as a map of what they emphasise. It is our count, from our crawler, on the date shown, and it is the only figure on this page that neither of us can dispute.
The activity record
Our crawl of their site found 672 pages carrying a date, 292 of them articles. The oldest is from June 2026 and the newest from August 2026. 672 of them carry a date inside the last twelve months.
Recent dates prove somebody is still at the keyboard. They prove nothing about the network, which is what the test at the end of this page is for.
The parts no marketing page answers
Ten million addresses, and none of them yours
Claims of ten million, one hundred million or more say nothing about whether your requests get through this week. Your job meets the handful of exits it draws, in your countries, against one target. Rotation policy and freshness move that outcome far more than the headline total.
The entry price is not the effective price
Rates in this market are quoted from the bottom of the table. The relevant question is which row you land on at your volume, and whether reaching a cheaper row costs more in commitment than it saves per unit.
Threads, not gigabytes, are often the ceiling
Rate limits are often enforced per account rather than per plan, which means buying more traffic does not raise them. Confirm how yours scales before you assume a bigger plan runs faster.
Side by side, with the blanks left blank
The table answers what we can answer and marks what we cannot:
| Question to ask | SimplyNode | HProxy |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | Not verified by us, read their page | From $0.44/GB, pay as you go |
| Does unused balance expire? | On their own terms page | Never |
| Minimum commitment | Their terms page answers this | None |
| Identity checks | Check the current terms, this one moves | Card orders are screened, and verification is sometimes requested |
| Targeting | Their terms page answers this | Country, city and ISP |
| Free way to evaluate | Check the current terms, this one moves | Free proxy list and proxy checker |
We would rather show an incomplete table than a confident wrong one. Anything we could not source is left for you to read at the source, with the date you read it.
The ten minute version of this decision
For a few dollars you can get a verdict specific to your job, which no comparison page can honestly promise you.
- Buy the minimum each side offers. Prefer a small paid batch over a trial, because trial traffic does not always ride the same pool.
- Send an identical workload through each: same target, same tooling, same time of day, same request mix.
- Log successes, failures and gigabytes used. Cost per successful request is the figure you are after.
- Verify a slice of the exits independently. Country labels in this market are self-reported and are not always right.
- Take the winner and set a reminder to run this again, since a result has a shelf life of about a quarter.

Our side of it
HProxy is pay as you go from $0.44 per GB on residential, with ISP, mobile and datacenter under one balance and no commitment attached to any of them. Run the test. If we lose on your target, we lose, and you have your answer.
