I want to choose a proxy package for daily work-related tasks and, what is quite possible, for personal use. I have already chosen a reliable proxy provider with all the aspects that are important to me - here it is https://proxycompass.com/free-trial/. It is also worth noting that I decided the package should have high speed and bandwidth. In addition to this, it should have an impressive traffic supply. What do you advise? I fear losing because significantly overpaying or underpaying is not my taste.

Can someone actually explain to me clearly and simply what a proxy is even for? I don’t get the difference from VPNs and why people say they’re not the same thing.

Well, because they really are different things. Do you know anything about IP addresses? If not, I suggest starting with the article here, it’s really simple and clear, just right for someone who’s seeing this for the first time. VPNs don’t change your IP or don’t change it the same way proxies do. For online work like multi-accounting, web scraping, or online marketing, I’d pick a proxy for sure.
