New users of the browser get a 4-day trial with 1000 profiles. In addition, Dolphin{anty} has a free plan with 10 profiles included.

Octo Browser at a glance

Octo Browser is a premium universal antidetect, the developers of which claim that their main advantage is the high quality of digital fingerprint spoofing. Octo has all the main antidetect capabilities, and for mass operations there are convenient templates.

From a technical point of view, Octo Browser is one of the market leaders, the browser has stable and fast updates, constant addition of new features, quality technical support.

Let's compare Dolphin{anty} and Octo Browser in more detail based on key characteristics.

Interface

The interface difference between Octo and Dolphin{anty} lies in their approach to UI design. In Dolphin{anty}, developers try to include as many settings as possible and make all menu elements highly customizable, while Octo Browser is guided by the principle "the simpler, the better."

Let's discuss the specific interface features that distinguish Octo and Dolphin{anty}.

Octo Browser UI

Dolphin{anty} UI

✅ All basic profile sorting options are available: by creation date, launch date, name, and tags. It's concise and convenient.

✅ There is a quick profile creation button. Each new profile will be created either with a randomized fingerprint or will follow a template.

✅ You can add profile icons.

✅ You can configure the starting pages for each profile individually.

✅ You can add an extension to a running browser instance, and it will become available when creating new profiles later.

✅ There's a videostream spoofing feature.

✅ Good customization options: you can adjust the width and size of columns, swap columns, delete unused ones, or add new ones.

✅ Any navigation parameter can be edited on the spot and sorted as needed.

✅ When creating a profile, you can choose presets for Google, Facebook, and TikTok that allow you to save the login and password and provide a set of predefined bookmarks. There's also a Crypto preset.

✅ It's possible to mass-create new profiles with a randomized fingerprint.

✅ There is separate functionality for installing and managing extensions; you can install them from different sources.

❌ Descriptions can only be viewed by clicking on profiles, they are not shown in the table.

❌ There are no profile statuses, only tags.

❌ You cannot easily add extensions from files or links directly from the browser, you need to use the Web Store in a launched profile, or use API or developer mode.

❌ Launch arguments cannot be used directly with the browser, they are available only through API.

❌ Too many buttons, some of which lead to the website. There is no hierarchy between elements.

❌ If you use the free subscription, you will see a lot of ads.

❌ Only the columns of the profile management window can be customized. It is not possible to customize these elements in other windows.

❌ It’s impossible to install an extension from a launched profile and save it in the extensions menu.

Fingerprint spoofing

The basic profile settings in Octo Browser and Dolphin{anty} are more or less similar. However, the main difference lies in the details. In the case of Dolphin{anty}, there are noticeable drawbacks, such as the impossibility of configuring DNS and fonts.

Fingerprint spoofing in Octo Browser

Fingerprint spoofing in Dolphin{anty}

✅ You can choose from various OSs, such as Windows 10, 11, as well as the four latest versions of macOS.

✅ DNS settings are available.

✅ Audio hardware noise is available.

✅ Detailed fonts settings are available.

✅ All necessary ports are blocked by default with no detailed ports configuration.

✅ You can block ports of your choice.

❌ Almost all spoofing is disabled by default. This means that profiles expose your real digital fingerprint data: screen resolution, Canvas, WebGL, media devices, etc.

❌ Linux is available, although choosing it may trigger anti-fraud systems if used on a Windows or macOS device. In general, Linux looks more suspicious to anti-fraud systems than more popular operating systems.

❌ Font substitution is not available. This is a serious drawback, as system fonts make it easy to discover a connection between profiles and determine that a given profile was created for Windows, and another for macOS.

❌ There is a "Turn off" button in the WebGL settings. Most likely, developers added this as a workaround for specific cases. It's better not to disable this setting.

❌ There is a "Do not track" checkbox in the settings. It's better to leave this option enabled by default.

❌ No Audio hardware noise.

❌ No DNS settings.

❌ Some settings for saving profile data are missing: for example, there is no Local Storage or browser history.

❌ Device name and MAC address are available in the profile settings. However, these settings have no significance for the digital fingerprint spoofing, as they cannot be obtained through the browser. No real spoofing is performed, and users are given a false sense of control due to irrelevant settings.

Bulk operations

Octo Browser has all the essential bulk functions: tag management, adding proxies, and export, import, transfer, and deletion of profiles. Meanwhile, in Dolphin{anty}, profile export is missing, but there's an additional feature for bulk export of cookies and profile creation.

Octo Browser has a convenient feature for multi-accounting that Dolphin{anty} lacks, namely templates. Using templates, you can create your own sets of fingerprint settings, which saves time when creating identical or similar profiles. Templates also allow you to add proxies to profiles based on a proxy list.

In Dolphin{anty}, the number of presets is limited to Google, TikTok, Facebook, and Crypto, which significantly reduces the possibilities for bulk profile management.

Automation

Octo Browser and Dolphin{anty} both support working with API in a similar manner allowing creating, deleting, and editing profiles, proxies, and tags, as well as launching profiles for automation using any browser automation framework.

When using automation in Dolphin{anty}, there's a high risk of detection because this browser is not designed to counter automation detection; Octo is better suited for automation purposes.

A slight advantage of Dolphin{anty} is that it comes with a tool for creating custom automation scripts with a graphical interface. This is convenient for simple automation tasks if you are unsure how to properly write scripts.

Update Speed

Prompt kernel updates are crucial for multi-accounting browsers. This is necessary to blend in with the crowd of Chrome users who update first. To evaluate the update speed, we took publicly available information about the last 10 updates. We didn't consider minor deviations of 2-3 days, but if the difference was significant, we highlighted the multi-accounting browser with the better result. Octo Browser has performed better in the last 10 updates.

User Data Security

Octo Browser reliably protects user data, which is stored on European cloud servers and encrypted using the AES standard. The data storage is organized in such a way that even in the unlikely event of a partial data leak, malicious actors still won’t be able access user profiles.

The situation with Dolphin{anty} is debatable. On one hand, in July 2022 there was a leak of 15% of all user profile data, indicating a questionable approach to user data protection, and similar situations occur with Dolphin{anty} with some regularity. On the other hand, lightning doesn't strike the same spot twice, and colleagues likely have done some work on fixing the previous mistakes. Ultimately, the decision about who they trust with their data security lies with the users.

Stability of Operation

To determine how stable a multi-accounting browser is, you need to use it for a considerable amount of time. To better understand a browser’s stability levels, it's recommended to look in its community chat: you’ll find more information about browser issues there.

People in the community are already sharing memes about Dolphin{anty} updates. These updates are not often stable, so it's usually a good idea to wait until the developers fix initial issues.

From February 2023 to February 2024, Octo Browser users experienced only one noticeable issue with a release, which occurred with Update 1.8; normal operation was restored within approximately one day.

Pricing

For our comparison, we used standard prices, without promotional offers or long-term subscription discounts.

	Octo Browser	Dolphin{anty}

Free subscription	No	✅ Yes, 10 profiles
Cost of one profile with the cheapest subscription	€2,9	✅ 0
Cost of one profile with the Base subscription (100 profiles)	✅€0,79	€0,82
Cost of one profile with the most expensive subscription (1200 profiles)	✅ €0,27	€0,32

In terms of teamwork, Octo and Dolphin{anty} subscriptions also show noticeable differences: in Octo, individual profiles are cheaper, but adding team members is only possible starting with the Team-tier subscription.

For its part, Dolphin{anty} offers the option to add team members for a price starting with the Base subscription, which can be convenient for small teams. However, the cost per profile will be significantly higher compared to Octo.

	Octo Browser	Dolphin{anty}
Cost of the cheapest team subscription for 3 team members	€169 (350 profiles)	✅ €110 (100 profiles)
Cost of a profile with the cheapest team subscription for 3 team members	✅ €0,48	€1,1
Cost of the most expensive team subscription for 8 team members * except Custom subscription	✅€329 (1200 profiles)	€463 (1000 profiles)
Cost of a profile with the most expensive team subscription for 8 team members * except Custom subscription	✅€0,27	€0,46

In terms of pricing, Octo Browser is best suited for users with a medium to large number of profiles. Dolphin{anty}, on the other hand, is more oriented towards beginners and users with a small number of profiles. Additionally, Dolphin{anty} offers options to purchase slots for extra team members and additional profiles, whereas Octo lacks this feature. However, it's also essential to consider the quality of fingerprint spoofing, browser stability, and other crucial factors discussed above.
