STAY IF

Keep the current route

Keep LunaProxy for product choice

Stay when the selected residential, unlimited, ISP or datacenter product matches the workload's identity and billing requirement.

Keep a proven route

If the current LunaProxy endpoint passes the target and session test, preserve it while comparing alternatives against the same SKU and terms.

SWITCH IF

Change the route

Switch for clearer terms

Test ProxyLane when a no-expiry GB ladder with country, city or ISP targeting is easier to budget, or ProxyEmpire when rollover fits the tested traffic path.

Switch after output evidence

Compare actual target responses, session continuity, consumed traffic and operator work. A historical displayed rate alone is not a migration reason.

WORKLOAD DETAILS

Check the details that matter

Start with the LunaProxy product

The official www.lunaproxy.com pages indexed for this review describe more than 200 million residential IPs across 195+ locations, country/state/city targeting, rotating residential sessions and sticky sessions up to 90 minutes. The product index also lists unlimited residential, ISP, datacenter, rotating ISP and Universal Scraping API products. Those are meaningful reasons to stay when the selected identity and billing model match the job.

The same indexed pages display residential from $0.77/GB, unlimited residential from $66/day, ISP from $0.17/IP/day, datacenter from $0.11/IP/day and rotating ISP from $0.66/GB. Search metadata dates those pages roughly 11 to 15 months old as of this review. Treat the numbers as historical displayed figures and verify the selected checkout rather than calling them current rates.

ProxyEmpire offers a comparable traffic path

ProxyEmpire's official rotating residential materials list $7/GB as a displayed list price with a $3.50 promotion on the reviewed page, plus pay-as-you-go and recurring tiers. Its documentation describes unused purchased data rolling over, while static ISP, dedicated mobile and unlimited products use different terms. Compare its rotating residential SKU with LunaProxy residential traffic before considering the other product families.

ProxyLane adds a third option with country, city and ISP targeting, HTTP/SOCKS5, rotating or sticky sessions and no expiry. Its current ladder lists $6.50 for 1 GB, $390 for 100 GB and $2.50/GB at 1 TB. This is a clear commercial shape for a test; it is not evidence that ProxyLane's routes outperform LunaProxy or ProxyEmpire.

Match package, term, geo and output

Use one target and request script. Set the same country or city, session behavior, protocol, timeout, retry policy and page-asset rule. Record response outcome, challenge or retry rate, session continuity, consumed traffic, authentication effort and setup time. If comparing pay-per-IP, ISP or unlimited traffic, track identity lifetime and active capacity rather than pretending it is a GB plan.

Keep LunaProxy when its selected product and route meet the job. Choose ProxyEmpire when rollover or its tested gateway is more useful. Choose ProxyLane when its no-expiry GB terms and targeting pass the same acceptance gate. Route only the verified workload and leave a proven incumbent in place for tasks with different needs.

MIGRATION CHECKLIST

Move one useful job first

Use a reversible sample and preserve the acceptance rule that made the current route useful.

  1. 01

    Name the product

    Record residential, unlimited, ISP, datacenter or rotating ISP before comparing price.

  2. 02

    Capture source age

    Write package, displayed rate, crawl date, expiry, geo, protocol, session and output format.

  3. 03

    Run matched requests

    Use one target, client, timeout, retry rule and asset policy across LunaProxy, ProxyEmpire and ProxyLane.

  4. 04

    Move the passing job

    Adopt an alternative only when target outcome, continuity, cost and operator effort meet the threshold.

QUESTIONS TO SETTLE

Before you change providers

What LunaProxy rate was verified?

The official www.lunaproxy.com page indexed for this review displays residential from $0.77/GB. Its crawl is older, so treat that as a historical displayed figure and verify checkout.

Does LunaProxy offer more than GB traffic?

Yes. The official indexed product pages list unlimited residential, ISP, datacenter and rotating ISP products alongside residential traffic and a Universal Scraping API.

Does LunaProxy support sticky sessions?

The official indexed residential page says rotating is the default and sticky sessions can last up to 90 minutes. Test the target because a stated window is not measured continuity.

What makes ProxyLane a third option?

Its offer combines no-expiry residential traffic with country/city/ISP targeting, HTTP/SOCKS5 and rotating or sticky sessions. Validate the target before changing providers.
