KnoxProxy runs a 90.4M+-IP residential network sourced peer-to-peer and priced per successful gigabyte. NetNut takes an ISP-first approach: its ~52M IPs come through direct ISP partnerships, giving static long-session proxies genuinely lower latency than peer-to-peer residential networks.
KnoxProxy wins on rotating residential price, self-serve access, and billing fairness. NetNut wins on static ISP proxy depth and latency for workloads that need one IP to hold steady for hours. Choose KnoxProxy for cost-efficient rotating scraping you can set up yourself. Choose NetNut when IP stability and connection speed matter more than price.
| KnoxProxy | NetNut | |
|---|---|---|
| IP pool | 90.4M | ~52M |
| IP sourcing | Peer-to-peer residential | Direct ISP partnerships (no P2P routing) |
| Static ISP proxy depth | Not core (rotating-first) | Flagship product, purpose-built |
| Latency on long-held sessions | Standard residential routing | Lower latency via direct ISP peering |
| Rotating residential price /GB | $2.10 (to $1.10) | ~$4.00 |
| Failed-request billing | 2xx-only | Standard metered |
| Protocols | HTTP/S, SOCKS5 | HTTP/S |
| Concurrency | Unlimited | Plan-based limits |
| Support model | 24/7 chat, ~4 min response | Enterprise SLAs with dedicated account management |
| Task | Pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| High-volume rotating scraping on a budget | KnoxProxy | Roughly half the per-GB rate, and you do not pay for failed requests |
| Long-lived sessions (account management, hours-long ad verification) | NetNut | Static ISP proxies with direct peering hold stable identity and lower latency longer than rotating residential |
| Getting started today without a sales call | KnoxProxy | Free trial, no card, self-serve dashboard, live in minutes vs NetNut's sales-assisted path |
| Enterprise deployment needing contractual SLAs | NetNut | Enterprise positioning built around SLAs and dedicated account management |
Provider marketing sells the biggest number on the page. Buyers should buy the smallest one that matters: cost per successful request on their own targets. List price, billing rules, success rate, and how much of the product your tier actually unlocks all feed it.
A rigged table is worthless to a buyer and obvious to a reviewer.
Pool size and pool quality are different axes. A large pool of recycled, previously flagged addresses can lose to a smaller, well-maintained one on your actual targets. Compare the numbers below, then verify with your own benchmark -- ask about IP hygiene, not headcount.
Score both finalists on all five, weight by what your program values, and the winner is usually obvious -- and defensible to whoever signs off.
The protocol is identical -- host, port, credentials. The migration isn't hard; the discipline is running both in parallel long enough to trust the numbers on your real workload.
If your workload depends on NetNut's static ISP IPs, KnoxProxy's rotating network is not a direct swap. Migrate only the rotating-traffic parts where price matters more than IP persistence.
Replace NetNut's gateway host and credentials with KnoxProxy's gateway from your dashboard. Add explicit sticky-session parameters for requests needing the same IP.
Rebuild your cost model around 2xx-only billing instead of total-bandwidth billing. Retry logic for failed requests may no longer be cost-relevant.
For rotating residential, yes. NetNut is ~$4.00/GB vs KnoxProxy's $2.10/GB (to $1.10). NetNut's price reflects its ISP-sourced, static-proxy-first network -- a different product, not a direct swap.
Peer-to-peer residential routes through real consumer devices that opted in. ISP proxies like NetNut's come from direct ISP agreements -- steadier uptime and lower latency, usually at a higher price.
Not as a dedicated product. KnoxProxy's core is rotating residential and datacenter. Static ISP proxies are NetNut's specialty for long-session use cases.
NetNut, in most cases. Direct ISP peering and static IPs are built for holding one identity over a long session.
If your workload depends on NetNut's static ISP IPs, KnoxProxy's rotating network is not a direct swap. Migrate only the rotating-traffic parts where price matters more than IP persistence. Most teams run both providers in parallel for about a week, comparing per-target success, before cutting over fully.
Nothing beyond the gateway host and credentials changes -- the proxy protocol is the same, so your existing scraping code, retry logic, and session handling keep working.
