## Side-by-side

| Product                                  | Best for                                                     | Speed   | Cost         | Detection risk          | Auth                      |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | ------- | ------------ | ----------------------- | ------------------------- |
| **[Residential](/products/residential)** | Scraping, account work, general use                          | Medium  | \$\$         | Low                     | User:pass or IP whitelist |
| **[ISP](/products/isp)**                 | Per-account dedicated IPs, sneakers, ticketing, social media | Fast    | \$4.50/IP/mo | Lowest (per category)   | User:pass only            |
| **[Datacenter](/products/datacenter)**   | Bulk scraping where stealth isn't critical                   | Fastest | \$           | High on protected sites | User:pass only            |
| **[Mobile](/products/mobile)**           | Hardest anti-bot targets                                     | Medium  | \$\$\$\$     | Lowest                  | User:pass                 |

## Decision tree

**Logging into / managing social or commerce accounts** → Residential or Mobile for general use. ISP (Social Media category) if you want the same IP per account over time. Datacenter usually gets flagged.

**Web scraping at scale, cheaply** → Start with Datacenter IPv4 or IPv6: cheapest and fastest. If your target blocks them, step up to Residential.

**Testing site / ad / app from another country** → Any product. Residential is the most realistic. Pick by country.

**Cloudflare-protected, anti-bot-heavy targets** → Residential or Mobile. Datacenter and most ISP categories get blocked.

**CPA, surveys, self-signup offers** → Residential with country/state targeting. Mobile when extra trust is needed.

**Sneaker bots, ticketing** → ISP: pick the category that matches (Sneakers & Retail, Premium Tickets, Retail Plus, or Retail Advanced).

**Multi-account browsers (Dolphin, AdsPower, Octo, MoreLogin)** → ISP (Social Media category): one dedicated IP per profile. Or Mobile for highest trust.

**UDP / gaming / VoIP / custom UDP protocols** → ISP is the only product that supports UDP. Port 65535.
