I'm a tubes.io customer (and a happy customer too) and my main use for it is both the alternating IP, and that it allows me to scale up scraping operations without having to deal with too much on my backend.

The alternating IP is actually a bit of a big deal, it's kind of a pain to run your own proxies and have to manage the proxy switching yourself (so painful that I would pay 10 bucks/month for someone else to do it for me)




true, alternating IPs are useful, except when you already have agreements to do the scraping with the target site, which we do.

so what would interest me is something that made scraping easier or more robust. so far, it looks like the service still has some growing to do before it gets there.
