Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Before the downgrade, the dedicated ISP proxies worked for my Telegram accounts. That is the only positive part of this experience.
  • Clean and user-friendly dashboard Multiple proxy types available (residential, mobile, datacenter) Helpful documentation and developer-friendly API IP tagging and management options are well-structured

Cons

  • Support gave wrong information about which IPs would remain, the port-to-IP mapping broke, a refund was refused, and live chat was blocked.
  • KYC verification is unnecessarily long (took 2+ days even with correct documents) Couldn’t access my target site even after full approval Support team demanded too many business documents (e.g. company name, registration ID, tax number) Compliance team added further delays with domain-based email verification Refund is not processed to payment method—only as account credit Poor experience for testers or individual users

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to use, fast, affordable, reliable, and convenient, with a smooth and simple experience overall.
  • Intuitive layout, great search and regex filtering, and hassle-free integration with GraphQL queries and JSON responses.
  • Instant certificate installation, strong support for Protobuf/GRPC decoding, and clear separation of active proxy sessions. The UI makes tracking down hidden endpoints straightforward.
  • Powerful JavaScript-based scripting engine, smooth WebSocket traffic inspection, and the ability to export clear SSL logs for developer handoffs.
  • I am using this proxy and the setup is quick, And the connection stays stable, and the speed is good for everyday use.

Cons

  • Everything works perfectly just need more locations
  • The free tier limits you to a small number of active rules (like Map Local/Breakpoints) at a time, forcing you to constantly toggle them on and off unless you upgrade to a paid license.
  • When handling exceptionally large HAR files or streaming heavy binary payloads, the app can occasionally consume significant memory.
  • The documentation for complex custom scripts can be a bit sparse. It required some trial and error to get advanced HTTP header rewrites working properly.
  • I wish there were a few more server locations, but it still works fine for what I need.
