Why Teams Switch from Bright Data

No Per-GB Billing

Bright Data charges by bandwidth, so a heavier page costs more than a light one and budgets are hard to predict. ScraperCity is one flat monthly price no matter how much you pull.

No Monthly Minimum

Bright Data volume plans start at a $499 to $1,500 monthly commitment. ScraperCity is $149/month, and you can test it first with a $5 trial.

Never Pay for Failed Requests

Users report Bright Data charges even when a request fails. ScraperCity has no metering, so there is nothing to charge for a miss.

No Proxies, No Code

Skip proxy pools, unblocking, and parsing. Search the lead database or run a ready-made scraper and get a clean CSV.

Common Bright Data Complaints

Based on user feedback, these are the cost issues that send people looking for a simpler option:

Bandwidth Billing Is Hard to Predict

Because you pay per GB, a page that serves heavy assets costs far more than a light one, so monthly bills swing. ScraperCity is flat.

Costs Stack Quickly

Combining proxies, APIs, and datasets for one workflow can push bills to several hundred or several thousand dollars a month. ScraperCity stays at $149.

Promo Rates Expire

Introductory discounts roll off after a few months, and the effective rate climbs. ScraperCity's price does not reset on you.
