Decodo review: quick verdict
Decodo is a balanced mid-market provider: a large residential pool, clear volume pricing, SOCKS5 support and a convenient dashboard. For multi-accounting it works well with sticky sessions. The main limitations are short sticky residential sessions and refund conditions that are stricter than the headline suggests.

What changed with the rebrand
In April 2025 Smartproxy became Decodo. The name and domain changed, while the company, network and accounts stayed the same. Older reviews and guides still use the name Smartproxy. Decodo has also warned about impersonating websites that use the old name, so use only the official decodo.com domain.
What Decodo offers
Decodo sells all four main proxy types: residential, ISP (static residential), datacenter and mobile. On top of proxies, it offers scraping APIs and tools for working with web data. If you are not sure which proxy type you need, read our guide residential vs datacenter vs mobile proxies.
For residential proxies, the official page lists:
- Pool: 115M+ IPs in 195+ locations.
- Sessions: rotating, or sticky for up to 30 minutes.
- Protocols: HTTP(S) and SOCKS5.
- Targeting: country, city and US state; the pricing page also mentions continent, ZIP code and ASN targeting.

Pay-as-you-go works through a wallet top-up and cannot be combined with a monthly plan on the same account.
Trial and refund. New users can try 100 MB for 3 days; after the trial the plan activates automatically unless cancelled. The 14-day money-back option applies only to the first purchase, if no trial was used and no more than 20% of traffic was used on Regular plans (10% on Enterprise).
Decodo for multi-accounting
For account work, steady sticky sessions matter more than raw scraping speed. Assign each antidetect browser profile its own sticky session or a static ISP proxy, and match the proxy location to the profile’s time zone and language. Our guide to proxies for multi-accounting explains the setup in detail, and our guide on how to check a residential proxy shows how to test IPs during the trial.
Keep in mind that a sticky residential session lasts up to 30 minutes. For accounts that must keep the same IP for days, static ISP proxies are a better fit.
