The Truth About Residential Proxies
Bright Data (formerly Luminati) built an empire on a network of residential IPs sourced from infected devices or third-party app users (free VPNs). You pay premium prices for an unstable network shared with your competitors.
Proxym | Bright Data | |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Monthly Flat Rate €80 / month with 200 GB included. | Pay As You Go (Data) From $8 to $15 per Gigabyte. Quickly gets out of control. |
| IP Exclusivity | 100% Dedicated (Hardware) You physically lease a router. You are the only one on it. | Shared Network (P2P) IPs shared with thousands of other bots. Variable quality. |
| Speed & Latency | Extreme (Native 5G) Direct throughput from the cell tower to our central servers (France). | Very Slow (P2P) Traffic passes through a private individual's phone or PC. |
Physical Infrastructure Always Wins
The Bright Data model
- Unpredictable bills based on the weight of scraped pages.
- Dropped connections because the IP owner turned off their phone.
- Your IP has likely already been blacklisted by another Bright Data customer.
The Proxym alternative
- Fixed and predictable cost for your operations.
- Industrial routers connected 24/7 on backup power.
- No other customer touches your IP.
Frequently Asked Questions: Bright Data Alternatives
Is Bright Data's Peer-to-Peer network less performant?
Yes, by definition. When you use a classic residential proxy, your request transits through a private household's internet box or smartphone. If that person turns off their device or loses connection, your link breaks. With Proxym, you route through a physical router powered 24/7 in a secured rack.
I pay $12 per GB at Bright Data, how much at Proxym?
Proxym bills a flat rate. For €80/month, you get a dedicated router and 200 GB of fair use included. Broken down per Gigabyte, that's equivalent to €0.40 per GB. That is 30 times cheaper.
