Proxym vs Webshare The True Cost of Low-Cost
Webshare is famous for its shared datacenter proxies costing pennies. But when 250 people share the same IP as you to scrape Amazon, the IP is blacklisted in 3 seconds. Discover the power of a dedicated mobile network.

Why 'Shared' No Longer Works
The era of low-cost Datacenter proxies is over in the face of defenses like Cloudflare Turnstile.
The Webshare model
- IPs shared among hundreds of unknown users.
- IPs are often in spam databases (Spamhaus).
- Captcha rate above 60% on major sites (Google, Amazon).
- Forced to buy thousands of IPs to compensate for blocked ones.
The Proxym Alternative
- An entire 5G router allocated only to you. No noisy neighbors.
- IPs belong to major French mobile networks.
- Zero Captchas: Anti-bots let mobile traffic through.
- Need only one high-performance IP (rotated as needed) instead of 1000 junk IPs.
Frequently Asked Questions: Proxym vs Webshare
Does Proxym offer as many IPs as Webshare?
No. Webshare sells lists of IPs. Proxym leases hardware (5G routers). You get 1 IP at a time per router, but it is a Mobile IP with a perfect Trust Score. By calling our API, the router changes IP and gives you a fresh one. Quality over quantity.
Webshare offers Residential IPs. Are they better?
Their residential IPs are often sourced from peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. They are better than Datacenter, but less stable and slower than 5G (which is connected 24/7 in our rack). Additionally, Mobile IP benefits from CGNAT status, making it virtually un-blockable.
Is Proxym more expensive than Webshare's cheapest price?
If you scrape sites with no protection (small blogs), Webshare is cheaper. If you scrape Google, Instagram, or Amazon, Webshare will cost you more in captcha resolution, dev time, and data loss.
