Win

Switching from Skyvern to Geonode

Migration takes under an hour: claim your free terabyte, update one endpoint, and confirm targeting before decommissioning your old setup.

Claim Your Free Terabyte

Create a Geonode account and activate the 1 TB free trial — no credit card is required to start. This gives you enough bandwidth to run realistic volume tests against your target sites and validate IP quality, rotation behavior, and success rates before spending anything.

Swap Endpoint and Credentials

Replace your existing proxy endpoint with proxy.geonode.io on port 9000 and insert your Geonode username and password. Geonode supports HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 protocols, so no code-level changes are needed beyond updating the host, port, and credential fields in your existing scraping or automation scripts.

Verify Targeting and Billing

Confirm that country, city, and session parameters return the expected geolocations using Geonode's dashboard or REST API. Check that consumption appears as per-GB charges with no expiry clock on your purchased bandwidth. Once results match expectations across your target regions, cut live traffic over fully and retire the old configuration.

What Geonode customers say

FAQ

Geonode charges per GB starting at $0.79, with no monthly minimum. Skyvern uses a credit-based subscription starting at a free tier, then $29 per month and $149 per month for Pro. The two models are not directly comparable; Geonode's per-GB proxy cost is transparent, while Skyvern's equivalent cost is not published.

Most teams complete migration in under an hour. You update the proxy endpoint to proxy.geonode.io:9000, swap credentials, and verify geo-targeting through the dashboard or REST API. Geonode's 1 TB free trial lets you test the full switch before incurring any charges on live traffic.

Geonode provides residential proxy infrastructure, not browser automation. Skyvern's AI-powered CAPTCHA solving, 2FA handling, and HIPAA/SOC-2 compliance are genuine differentiators. Teams that need browser-level automation alongside clean residential IPs may use both services together rather than treating them as direct substitutes.

Yes. Geonode offers city-level targeting across 195-plus countries on all plans, including during the free 1 TB trial.
