Webshare Proxy Review 2023

Webshare has grown extremely successful since launching its proxy services three years ago, despite not being one of the major participants in the proxy market. The cost of the proxies that Webshare offers on their website amazes the proxy users the most.

In addition to being inexpensive, these proxies are able to handle extremely high internet speeds and do not slow down internet speed when compared to a number of other proxy services. These proxies are highly quick, making them excellent for data scraping, anonymous online browsing, and accessing geo-blocked websites.

Locations

Datacenter proxy providers find it more difficult to support various locations than residential proxy providers do. This is due to the fact that they must own data centers or collaborate with data centers in any area they wish to support. To keep maintenance costs down, the majority of data center proxy providers only handle two to three sites.

Webshare, on the other hand, has made every effort to promote numerous nations. The business currently offers proxies from about 20 different countries.

The United States, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany are the nations having the most agents as of this writing. The number of supported countries has drastically decreased since our last inspection of this service a year ago, indicating that the company is aggressively gaining support.

Pricing

The cost is the key factor keeping most customers with this company. Price, especially if the user is on a restricted budget, is without a doubt one of the crucial elements that influence which proxy server a user chooses. On the official Webshare page, it is stated rather plainly as follows: inexpensive proxies.

However, how affordable are their agency rates? The cost is determined by the bundle you select. With prices starting at $6.76 and a rotation of 10 agents, their rotating agents are the most expensive. Pricing for their particular programs begins at $35.62 for 25 agents.

The Private Agent bundle, which starts at $14.25 for 25 agents, is their sole low-power agent bundle. The Webshare Proxy Server package, which starts at $2.99 for 100 proxies, is their most affordable proxy option.

Surprisingly, the most popular plan is the lowest proxy, indicating that users are tiny marketers seeking the most affordable proxy that will function.

You’ll appreciate this service’s unlimited bandwidth feature, which is offered to users on all premium plans. You have the option of creating anywhere between 500 and 3000 threads.

Dashboard

Your command post for simple proxy management is the Webshare Proxy Dashboard. You can monitor data usage, get real-time insights into your proxy usage, and easily manage your IP addresses thanks to the user-friendly UI. Choose specified geolocations, quickly switch between data center and residential proxies, and easily retrieve connection records. You can manage proxy settings, check billing information, and fine-tune proxy configurations all from one user-friendly interface.

Webshare Dashboard makes sure you have the resources you need to use proxies efficiently and effectively.

Proxy Connection Speed

The speed of Webshare is extremely outstanding, and it can manage straightforward-to-average workloads. Response time (or ping) and speed are the two factors you should consider whenever you wish to purchase a proxy.

A higher ping in a ping test typically denotes quicker reaction times, which might result in more lag and latency. Generally speaking, ping levels under 100 are amazing and function well. The ping findings from Webshare are not out of the ordinary. While some proxies have pings as high as 274 ms, others only have pings of 174 ms.

The speed test results from Webshare were, to put it mildly, average. The majority of proxies typically have download rates of 20 to 50 Mbps. The maximum speed, 120.05 Mbps, is quite good.

Overall, Webshare has an edge over other providers in that it provides competitive speeds. Latency and quicker reaction times are indicated by a relatively high ping number. In comparison to other service providers in the same category, the speeds were equally mediocre and barely noticeable.

Customer Support

No matter how flawless a product may appear, its creator should always have a crew ready to offer support because it may be necessary at some point. In the case of Webshare, the product is not even close to being ideal, thus there is no question that a support crew is necessary. Yes, Webshare does have a support staff.

The crew, however, takes a while to reply to customer inquiries. The service does not yet support live chat. They do have social media accounts, however, email is the best way to get in touch with them. It can take hours or even a day to receive a response from them for their email assistance, which is disheartening.

Documentation 

The documentation area of Webshare Proxy is a wealth of knowledge. It supports users of all levels with detailed tutorials, a thorough FAQ, and API documentation. Whether you’re a novice or an expert, you’ll get the advice you need to maximize Webshare Proxy offerings. It is kept up to date through regular updates, making it a priceless tool for users looking for information on pricing, API integration, proxy configuration, and troubleshooting.

We Like

• Free trial available
• Robust speed monitoring
• Emphasis on anonymity
• Multiple available tiers
• Available free tier

We Dislike

• Package customization could use a bit more flexibility
• No free trial of higher tiers
• Limited direct support option

Our Take

Webshare is a desirable proxy that offers definite advantages. The free tier, the high level of security, the focus on anonymity, the proxy speeds, and the variety of plans are all clearly visible. We are turned off, though, by the limited support options, the high costs of the plans, and the fact that other services provide proxies in a lot more places.

Overall, it’s worthwhile to test out the free proxy and all of its capabilities to determine whether it fulfills your needs.
