Quick pick
Webshare fits teams that want a large published residential network, explicit ZIP/ASN targeting, and a low-friction self-serve entry point.
Infatica fits teams that need more proxy types, detailed rotation controls, and documented ISO certifications around the provider platform.
Webshare and Infatica both sell residential proxy traffic through public plans, but the surrounding platforms differ. Webshare advertises 80M+ residential IPs across 195 countries and keeps its product lineup focused on datacenter, static ISP, and rotating residential proxies. Infatica's current pricing uses a 45M+ IP headline and the company also sells mobile, datacenter, static ISP, and IPv6 proxy products, backed by a compliance program that includes four ISO certifications.
Choosing Webshare
Webshare advantages
Webshare publishes the larger current residential headline pool and a very simple self-serve catalog. Residential targeting includes state, city, ZIP, and ASN, and buyers can start with 10 free datacenter proxies without a credit card. The same account can add static ISP proxies when a persistent address is more useful than rotation.
What Infatica adds
Infatica covers more proxy classes and a more compliance-oriented enterprise story. Its documentation supports country, region, city, ISP, ZIP, and OS filters, with per-request, timed 5-to-60-minute, and sticky rotation modes. Current company materials list ISO 27001, 27701, 22301, and 20000-1 certifications.
Choosing Infatica
Infatica advantages
Infatica is the broader platform when a project may move beyond residential IPs. Mobile, datacenter, ISP, IPv6, and residential products are all explicit parts of the catalog, and its rotation controls are documented in detail. That breadth can reduce vendor switching for teams with several proxy traffic profiles.
What Webshare keeps simpler
Webshare's current residential network is advertised at 80M+ IPs across 195 countries, with ZIP and ASN selectors in the endpoint generator. Its FAQ says mobile proxies are not currently in the lineup. For a team that needs only residential, ISP, and datacenter access, that narrower scope can be easier to operate than a broader enterprise proxy stack.
