The MarsProxies alternative for buyers who do not need the whole catalogue

Four lines, each priced in its natural unit: residential by bandwidth ($4.99/GB for one gigabyte, $3.99 at 10 GB, $2.99 at 100 GB and $1.65 from 10,000 GB), ISP by the proxy (ISP proxies from $1.35 per proxy), datacenter by the proxy (datacenter proxies from $0.99 per proxy), and mobile by the day (mobile proxies from $8.49 per day).

The residential pool is over 1M addresses in 190+ locations, and the network covers 190+ locations. Targeting includes city-level targeting, and protocols are HTTP/HTTPS and SOCKS5. Sessions are rotating and sticky sessions.

The commercial model is worth noting early: a fully pay-as-you-go model with no subscription. That is closer to our wallet than to a monthly plan, and it is the right instinct for this market.

What the catalogue does not include is machines. There are no Mac servers, no Windows servers and no dedicated hardware of any kind.

Their residential rate is $4.99/GB for one gigabyte, $3.99 at 10 GB, $2.99 at 100 GB and $1.65 from 10,000 GB.

That structure gives a good rate to a buyer committing to ten terabytes and a poor one to anyone testing the network. Our model does not have rungs: Essential is $1.50/GB, Premium is $3.00/GB, from a wallet that starts at $0.50.

If you expect to buy at the top of their ladder, their rate is genuinely competitive and you should price it against ours before deciding. If you are buying a few gigabytes, you are paying the first-rung price, and it is several times ours.

The billing model softens this: a fully pay-as-you-go model with no subscription means there is no minimum term to absorb. That is the right design, and it makes their expensive rung a smaller commitment than a subscription would.

Here they are simply better. ISP proxies from $1.35 per proxy is a low price for a single static address, and datacenter proxies from $0.99 per proxy is a low price for a datacenter one.

We sell a /24 at $255 a month, one customer per subnet, and our smallest ISP purchase is 50 single IPs. If your job needs five static IPs, that is more than you want and theirs is exactly the right shape.

Datacenter we do not sell at all, so on that line the comparison is not a comparison.

What our subnet buys that a single proxy does not is ownership of a block: 254 addresses that behave like a small network, with no other customer's traffic on them. That is the product argument, and it only applies if you need a block.

Their mobile rate is mobile proxies from $8.49 per day. Ours is $3.00/GB across 150 countries, with US state and city targeting.

Day rates and gigabyte rates are not directly comparable, and the honest way to choose is to estimate a day of your workload. A continuous mobile job suits a daily rate; a burst suits metering.

Neither model is a trick. Ours is cheaper for light use and theirs is simpler to budget for heavy use, and a buyer should work out which one their traffic looks like.

They offer city-level targeting across 190+ locations. Ours is country, US state and ASN on every pool, with city on Premium and Mobile, across 150 countries.

City targeting on their side is part of the residential offer rather than a premium tier, which means their entry price buys something ours needs Premium for. That is a real difference and it widens the price gap at the entry end rather than closing it.

ASN selection is where ours goes further, and it is the feature people discover they need late, when a target starts discriminating by network rather than by location.

MarsProxies is the better shop for static IPs and datacenter addresses, by a wide margin on price and by existence on datacenter. If either is what you need, buy there.

On residential bandwidth the comparison reverses. Their first rung is $4.99/GB for one gigabyte, $3.99 at 10 GB, $2.99 at 100 GB and $1.65 from 10,000 GB and ours is $1.50/GB, and the ladder only reaches a competitive number at volumes most buyers never buy.

We also sell the one thing their catalogue lacks entirely, which is a Mac server billed by the day. On everything else, choose by whether you are buying bandwidth or addresses.

MarsProxies has a public presence across review sites and listicles. We quote none of their scores on this page, because a copied figure is a claim we cannot keep current.

Our own pricing is read live rather than typed in, and the trust page lists what we can prove.
