A usage dashboard is a web-based interface where proxy customers can track account activity, including bandwidth used, active sessions, and remaining balance. It gives a clear, visual summary of how a plan is being used.
The provider system logs each request and the data transferred through a customer account in real time or near real time. This data is then displayed on the dashboard using charts, tables, and summary numbers covering the current billing period. Users can typically filter usage by date, proxy type, or location to spot patterns or troubleshoot unexpected spikes. Many dashboards also include alerts or notifications when usage approaches a plan limit.
This is largely a plan and configuration choice, not a technical limitation.

KnoxProxy sticky sessions persist up to 30 minutes on residential (60 on mobile), and the window refreshes with activity.
Each session or connection label gets its own exit, so parallel identities never collide.
This costs nothing beyond bandwidth -- successful responses are billed, not the session or connection itself.
Run as many parallel sessions or connections as the job needs -- concurrency is not capped on any plan.
A user checks a usage dashboard and notices a sudden bandwidth spike, which helps catch a misconfigured script running extra requests.
A clear usage dashboard helps customers avoid surprise overage charges and spot problems with their setup early. It is also a useful tool for planning when to upgrade to a larger plan.
Most providers update usage data in near real time or with only a short delay. Exact refresh rates vary by provider.
Yes, reviewing historical usage patterns helps estimate future needs. This approach fits the right plan size without overpaying.
