Choosing a proxy provider for web scraping or automation isn’t just about the number of IPs anymore. It’s about latency, success rates, and cost-efficiency. Today, we’re breaking down two heavyweights in the industry: SOAX and CyberYozh.
If you're building a scraper with Selenium, Puppeteer, or Playwright, here’s what you need to know before you commit your budget.
| Feature | CyberYozh | SOAX |
|---|---|---|
| IP Pool Size | 50M+ Clean IPs | 155M+ IPs |
| Success Rate | 99.8% Task Completion | High / Variable |
| Locations | 100+ Countries | 150+ Countries |
| Pricing | Starting from $0.9/GB | Starting from ~$12/GB |
| Proxy Types | Mobile, Residential, Datacenter | Mobile, Residential, ISP |
| Extra Tools | Built-in SMS & Virtual Numbers | Advanced Targeting Filters |
| Best For | High ROI & Clean IP Reputation | Large Enterprise Scale |
Key Takeaways for Developers
Performance vs. Scale
While SOAX offers a massive IP pool, CyberYozh focuses on "IP Reputation." For developers, this means fewer CAPTCHAs and 429 errors. In our tests, the 99.8% task completion rate on CyberYozh significantly reduced the need for complex retry logic in our Python scripts.Integration & DX (Developer Experience)
Both providers offer great API support. However, CyberYozh provides a unified dashboard that includes not just proxies (Mobile, Residential, Datacenter), but also SMS activation services—perfect if you're automating account creations that require phone verification.The Budget Factor
Let's talk numbers. SOAX is a premium service with a premium price tag. For startups or independent devs, CyberYozh offers a much lower entry barrier with residential proxies starting at just $0.9 per GB.
Which one should you choose?
Choose SOAX if: You need massive global scale and have a high-enterprise budget for extremely specific geo-targeting.
Choose CyberYozh if: You want the best ROI, high-quality "clean" IPs to avoid detection, and a multi-tool ecosystem (Proxies + SMS) for complex automation.
