Quick pick
Decodo fits if ISO 27001:2022 certification, EWDCI credentials, ZIP or coordinate targeting on residential, a money-back evaluation window, or self-serve trial access are requirements.
NetNut fits if ISP-direct residential routing without peer-device dependency, CDN proxy access, or session stability from infrastructure rather than peer assignment are the architectural constraints.
Decodo and NetNut both operate residential and ISP static proxy networks with enterprise-facing positioning -- but the underlying architecture differs. Decodo routes residential through an opt-in peer network and holds ISO 27001:2022 and EWDCI credentials alongside a 14-day money-back policy. NetNut routes residential through direct ISP partnerships rather than end-user devices, removing peer-dependency variability, and adds a CDN proxy type not commonly available among mainstream proxy providers.
If you choose Decodo
What you get that NetNut doesn't offer
ISO 27001:2022 certification -- independently audited. EWDCI co-founder and EWDCI Certified status for residential sourcing. A 14-day money-back policy. ZIP and coordinate targeting on residential proxies -- NetNut's targeting documentation stops at city level. A 3-day trial before committing. Sticky sessions configurable up to 24 hours. IP whitelist authentication alongside credential-based access. Self-serve pricing without sales engagement for standard tiers.
What you give up
NetNut's ISP-direct routing -- residential IPs connect through ISP infrastructure rather than end-user devices, removing the peer availability dependency that Decodo's peer network carries. CDN proxy access as a separate proxy type. Session stability on NetNut's static ISP proxies comes from infrastructure rather than peer assignment -- which behaves differently under sustained load.
If you choose NetNut
What you get that Decodo doesn't offer
ISP-direct residential routing -- IPs that connect through ISP infrastructure rather than end-user devices. CDN proxy access as a separate proxy type. Session consistency on static ISP proxies that comes from infrastructure availability rather than peer churn. A 53M+ ISP-direct residential pool.
What you give up
Decodo's ISO 27001:2022 certification. EWDCI co-founder and Certified status. ZIP and coordinate targeting on residential. A 14-day money-back policy. A self-serve trial before pricing engagement -- NetNut typically requires sales contact for rates. IP whitelist authentication. NetNut's pricing model is less transparent for evaluation without sales engagement.
