Bright Data fits if a financial SLA with 15-minute response, dedicated residential IPs, HAR instrumentation, coordinate targeting, GDPR DPA as a formal document, or automatic failover are requirements.
Infatica fits if ISP-level targeting alongside ASN, a 99.9% uptime SLA without enterprise procurement overhead, mobile proxies, accessible per-GB pricing, or no KYC at entry are priorities.
Bright Data and Infatica both offer ASN targeting on residential proxies -- a capability absent from most mid-market providers. The comparison diverges on everything around it. Bright Data adds a contractual SLA, dedicated residential IPs, HAR instrumentation, a 150M+ pool, and a GDPR DPA. Infatica adds ISP-level targeting alongside ASN, a 99.9% uptime SLA, GDPR documentation, mobile proxies, and a more accessible per-GB pricing structure -- with a lighter onboarding path than Bright Data's enterprise workflow.
If you choose Bright Data
What you get that Infatica doesn't offer
Infatica publishes a 99.9% uptime SLA, while Bright Data documents financial penalty terms alongside a 15-minute engineer response time. Dedicated residential IPs with exclusive peer assignment. HAR-level traffic instrumentation through the Proxy Manager desktop application. Automatic failover on residential with transparent peer replacement. 7M mobile IPs across 3G/4G/5G. GDPR and CCPA compliance with a published DPA. A 150M+ residential pool. Coordinate targeting on residential -- Infatica does not document coordinate-level precision.
What you give up
Infatica documents ISP-level targeting on residential alongside ASN -- Bright Data's targeting stack covers ASN and coordinate but not ISP as a distinct targeting dimension. Infatica's per-GB pricing is positioned around accessibility -- Bright Data's pricing reflects enterprise infrastructure depth. Infatica's GDPR documentation is explicit at the product level without requiring DPA negotiation; Bright Data's DPA is available but part of a more formal procurement process. Infatica requires no KYC at the entry tier -- Bright Data gates full residential network access behind verification.
If you choose Infatica
What you get that Bright Data doesn't offer
ISP-level targeting on residential proxies as a distinct dimension alongside ASN, city, and ZIP -- Bright Data's targeting covers ASN and coordinate but not ISP as a documented option. Mobile proxies alongside residential and datacenter. A 99.9% uptime SLA without the enterprise procurement overhead of Bright Data's SLA process. Explicit GDPR compliance documentation accessible at the product level. Accessible per-GB residential pricing without sales-negotiated rates. No KYC requirement at the entry tier.
What you give up
Bright Data's 15-minute SLA response with financial penalties. Dedicated residential IPs. HAR-level traffic instrumentation. Automatic failover. GDPR DPA as a formal contractual document. Coordinate targeting on residential. Pool scale: Bright Data at 150M+ versus Infatica's 150M+ -- comparable in stated size but Bright Data's pool spans more proxy types including mobile at 7M.
