Crawly is a company that focuses on providing various web data gathering solutions. To develop custom web crawling and scraping tools, the company required various third-party assets, such as proxies. 

Main points: 

  • Crawly provides robust web crawling and scraping services, allowing businesses to seamlessly gather data from any online source. 

  • To provide these services, Crawly needed powerful and reliable proxies. 

  • Price, uptime, average success rate, and low response time were the key factors for the company. 

  • With Oxylabs Datacenter Proxies, Crawly was able to provide their clients with advanced web scraping services, ensuring high success and low response rates. 

Success rate and response time as the top priorities

As a provider of web scraping services, Crawly was handling over one billion (50TB worth of data) real-time requests monthly. Proxies are a part of any solid web scraping infrastructure, and to handle this number of requests, Crawly needed a reliable provider. 

In their search for a proxy provider, the executives of Crawly knew that a high average success rate and a low response time were the key features. Thanks to these features, their clients would be able to get high-quality data in an efficient manner. 

Oxylabs proxies improve Crawly’s response rate by 4 times

After thorough market research, Crawly decided to go with Oxylabs’ Datacenter Proxies. The company reported they were able to see terrific improvements right away. The response time decreased from 7-8 seconds to 2-3 seconds, while the success rate grew from 92% to 98%. 

“Thanks to Oxylabs Datacenter Proxies, we saw a substantial improvement in response time immediately – it went from an average of 7-8 seconds to 2-3 seconds. With a quick response rate, clients had better results, while we were able to increase our revenue.” 

João Drummond, Founder of Crawly

By partnering with Oxylabs and harnessing the Datacenter Proxies, Crawly was able to crush their business goals: improve the response rate, deliver high-quality data, and boost their own revenue.
