NetNut vs ProxyEmpire
We put NetNut and ProxyEmpire side by side on price, pool depth, coverage and reliability. We benchmark each option on the metrics that decide success: anonymity, uptime, geo-coverage, and cost per GB.
NetNut (ISP & Residential, $7.50/GB) and ProxyEmpire (Residential & Mobile, $7.00/GB) both target serious proxy users, but they win on different axes. ProxyEmpire is cheaper ($7.00/GB vs $7.50/GB) — roughly 1× the gap.
NetNut differentiates itself with direct ISP partnerships. This makes IPs highly stable but the network is limited to 50 countries. At $7.50/GB they are 10x more expensive than Cheapest-Proxies.
ProxyEmpire operates a residential & mobile network of 20M+ IPs across 170 countries with 99.6% uptime. At $7.00/GB it sits above the value leader Cheapest-Proxies ($0.70/GB) for a broadly comparable result.
