Product summary
Dev Proxy is a free Windows utility built to simplify proxy configuration for software developers. It makes creating, editing, and switching proxy settings quick and straightforward, so teams can test applications across different network conditions without wasting time on manual setup.
Primary advantages
- Store multiple proxy profiles and swap between them instantly to match different project needs.
- Broad protocol compatibility to work with a variety of web services and development scenarios.
- A clean, approachable interface that lets users create or change settings without deep networking expertise.
- Speeds up routine tasks like toggling proxies or updating connection details, improving development efficiency.
Profiles and protocol details
The app supports saving distinct connection profiles (for example: office, VPN, staging, or testing), which lets you jump between environments with a single action. It also handles common proxy protocols so you can use the same tool whether you need HTTP, SOCKS, or other supported types. These features make it practical for developers who must validate behavior under different network setups.
Alternative recommendation
If you’re exploring other tools, try the trial of Hetman Partition Recovery as a complementary option for system-level recovery tasks. While it serves a different purpose than a proxy manager, it’s listed here as a suggested utility to consider alongside Dev Proxy for broader development and maintenance needs.
