@deki33 Hello, I have bought the basic rotating proxies service and it works decently well, but I cannot use more than one browser instance.

I have 10 threads available, which should give me 10 simultaneous connections, but when I open two browsers while connected to the Main gateway, one of them crashes.

Also, a couple of times I'm seeing repeated IPs, after 100 or so requests, which is strange considering the pool of 70,000+ IPs.

Check this - https://help.stormproxies.com/knowledge-base/im-getting-errors/
 
Just purchased their package with 150 threads. We're currently testing out their service, but it is full of disappointments.

We got 3 different options for the gateway. One which gets a different IP for every request, one with 3 minutes sticky IP and another one with 15 minutes sticky IP.

Here are my notes:
  • The gateway that should be getting a different IP for every request, doesn't work as advertised. Sometimes I keep the same IP even for 10+ requests. It is insanely slow. Even with the 150 thread package, we get times (quite frequently, sometimes every other 2-3 minutes) when we can't even load a single website for 2-3 minutes because the connection is so slow. This seems to be happening whenever our IP rotates.
  • If you intend to use these proxies for a traffic bot, beware that locations on the EU package are not accurate. 60% of EU proxies show up as South Korea or Japan on Google Analytics.
  • The support is slow, even if you are a paying customer (we paid 95$ for our package, plus we purchased a $15 package beforehand), they take 3-5 hours to respond on average. You get no LIVE support.
  • We are currently using the 3-minute rotating sticky proxies, which seem to be working on a low thread count. We will be increasing the thread count and seeing if they perform as advertised.
  • Even after testing out many proxy providers, we cannot seem to find a reliable one. I hope Stormproxies support responds to our message and handles the situation accordingly.

Thanks for giving this valuable input, I wanted to test a highter thread package, to see if it would fare better for my uses, but I have strong doubts now.

For me the basic service was:
  • Quite slow, but manageable, although I expect far greater, and used other proxy services which were much faster. The speed of these proxies caused my application to not load elements in pages and crash.
  • IPs not as unique as expected, and so pool probably not actually 70.000 IPs. I was making requests every minute or so, and I needed unique IPs for each, but was getting many repeated IPs, which caused slowness.
Maybe the best option is to buy more threads and use many simultaneous threads with the 3 minute option, and the amount of threads might cover up the low speed of waiting 3 minutes per request.

I am still testing their service, the 3-minute rotating ones worked fine for 10k requests over a span of hours on the 150 thread package. Don't expect the support to be there for any assistance, they are slow and reply with 2-word sentences. You'll have to debug and test the proxies yourself to see if they are up to your needs.

I might test the instant IP ones with a larger thread amount.

I bought rotating proxies from proxyrack, and I think there is something quite shady going on. They advertise as unlimited amount of bandwidth, but when I start using 50+ threads, and performing many requests, my connections all sudennly die and I cannot do anything anymore. It only comes back when I wait a while. Already accumulated 30+ failed requests at this moment.

Thinking of sticking with Stormproxies and using the 3 minute one. If those 10k requests happened ovr 5-6 hours it is probably worth it.

To all those who read beware: many many many dead IPs on proxyrack.

May I know what's the difference between Private and Instagram proxies?
The difference is that our IG proxies are specially optimized for Instagram, in order to stay undetected and flagged by IG.
 
Just a heads up people, I couldn't scrape Google using their back connect proxies, which is what was recommended to use. They are by far the most affordable rotating proxies I've found, so it depends on what you need it for, but it's a no go for Google.
 
Any Update here?
Did the "diffrent IP on every request" Service now works as described?
