Why teams leave Woodpecker

Datacenter IPs put your account at risk

Woodpecker routes your LinkedIn activity through datacenter proxies — the same IP ranges that LinkedIn actively monitors and flags. Teams report a N/A account restriction rate with Woodpecker. Infonet's InfoProxy routes through your actual home IP address, making your automation indistinguishable from normal LinkedIn usage. The result: a near-zero ban rate across thousands of accounts.

$29-74/month per account adds up fast

Woodpecker charges $29-74/month per LinkedIn account on their monthly plan, or $29/month if you commit annually. For a team of 10 sales reps, that's $9,480-$11,880 per year just for LinkedIn automation. Infonet is available starting at $39/mo per account — simple per-account pricing, no account limits, no feature gates. The money you save can go toward hiring another SDR.

LinkedIn-only limits your outreach potential

Woodpecker supports LinkedIn and email, but modern outreach requires more channels. Infonet lets you build sequences across LinkedIn, Email, WhatsApp, SMS, and Telegram — all from one platform. When a prospect doesn't respond on LinkedIn, your sequence automatically follows up on WhatsApp or email, increasing your reply rates by 2-3x compared to single-channel outreach.

How Infonet compares

Home IP Routing

InfoProxy is a small hardware device that sits on your network and routes all LinkedIn activity through your residential IP. LinkedIn sees your activity coming from a normal home connection, not a datacenter. This is why Infonet users experience near-zero account restrictions — your automation looks exactly like manual browsing.

5-Channel Outreach

Go beyond LinkedIn and email. Infonet sequences span LinkedIn connections, Email follow-ups, WhatsApp messages, SMS nudges, and Telegram outreach. Build truly multi-channel campaigns that meet prospects wherever they are, dramatically increasing your response rates compared to Woodpecker's two-channel approach.

Cost at Scale

With Woodpecker, 10 accounts cost $740/month ($11,880/year). With 25 accounts, you're paying $2,475/month ($29,700/year). Infonet is from $39/mo per account. Whether you're running 5 or 500 LinkedIn profiles, your per-account cost stays the same — with no feature restrictions at any scale.

Cloud vs Cloud

Both Infonet and Woodpecker are cloud-based, so your campaigns run 24/7 without keeping your computer on. But Infonet adds the safety layer that Woodpecker lacks: dedicated residential proxies for each profile. You get the convenience of cloud with the safety of home IP routing — the best of both worlds.

Why James's team switched

Switched from Woodpecker

We switched from Woodpecker and never looked back. Managing 32 accounts used to cost us $1,800/month — now it's a fraction of the cost. The home IP feature means zero restrictions. Our team was skeptical at first, but the results speak for themselves.
