Before you choose

Compare plans and trials

Check the free-plan status and the paid starting price before choosing a tool. Dante, FoxyProxy and Privoxy list free plans, while FalconProxy lists pricing from $10 per month.

Trial terms differ. Proxy-Cheap and Surge list seven-day trials; Proxifier lists a 31-day trial.

Check network coverage

Compare the proxy networks and countries covered for the locations you need. A broader country list may matter when your connections must appear in specific regions.

Review sessions and bandwidth

Concurrent sessions describe how many connections a plan can handle at once. Included bandwidth shows how much transfer comes with the plan, so check both before committing.

Match supported protocols

Review the supported protocols against the software and services you plan to connect. Protocol coverage can determine whether a tool fits your setup.

Choose the right platform

Platform options in this category include API, web, Windows, macOS, Linux and self-hosted deployments. Pick the access method that fits your workflow, then verify API availability if you need automation.

Check the licence

Open-source status can matter when you need to inspect or change code. Read the licence terms before adopting a tool for a project with redistribution or modification requirements.
