Best Datacenter Proxy Providers 2026

By Marcus Reiner 2026-01-23 8 min read Reviews

Datacenter proxies are dirt cheap and lightning fast — when used on the right targets. Here's where to buy them in 2026.

Why datacenter still matters in 2026

Datacenter proxies are 10× cheaper than residential and 5× faster. For unprotected targets — open APIs, government data, sitemaps, internal tools, niche e-commerce — they're the rational choice. Cloudflare-protected sites? No chance.

Top providers

**Rayobyte** — 300K+ datacenter IPs, transparent pricing, great support. From $0.65/IP/month.

**Bright Data Datacenter** — 770K IPs, premium quality. From $0.50/IP/month for shared, $1+/IP for dedicated.

**Oxylabs Datacenter** — 2M+ IPs in 188 locations. From $0.65/IP/month.

**Webshare** — Generous free tier (10 IPs free), $0.50/IP/month paid.

Shared vs dedicated

Shared datacenter ($0.30–$1/IP/month) splits an IP across multiple users — fine for most workloads. Dedicated ($1–$3/IP/month) gives you full IP-reputation control — required for any session-based or account-based work.
