Great IP proxy service
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Floppydata to help with reaching HTTP endpoints that are otherwise inaccessible or not easily usable with plain datacenter IPs (and a limited supply of them) of our own, so Floppydata gives us a wide range of IPs we can use across all kinds of countries and different categories (like residential and ISP and mobile).
Pros
- Residential proxy IPs
- ISP proxy IPs
- Mobile Proxy IPs
- Datacenter Proxy IPs
Cons
- Billing challenges initially with subscriptions; we had to change our payment method due to some rearchitecture they did, but atleast they notified us.
Return on Investment
- It allows us to collect the data we need to power key parts of our business.
