Octo Browser vs. GoLogin: Comparing Anti-Detect Browsers in 2025

MARCH 21, 2025 • ANTI-DETECT BROWSERS • COMPARISON

Choosing a high-quality anti-detect browser can be challenging. That’s why it’s important to make sure the browser has everything needed for stable and secure multi-accounting before purchasing a subscription. We've been analyzing various anti-detect browsers based on key characteristics to help you make the right choice. In this review, we compare the capabilities of GoLogin and Octo Browser.

GoLogin is a popular anti-detect browser designed for multi-accounting on social media and e-commerce platforms. It is supported on Windows, Linux, and macOS (Intel/Apple silicon). There is also an Android multi-tool, which allows launching a single profile.

A cloud-based web version of the browser is also available, allowing users to run one to four profiles simultaneously, depending on the subscription plan. While it’s not a full-fledged multi-accounting tool, the web version is a handy feature for quickly launching a profile on a device without the installed anti-detect browser.

When you first launch GoLogin, you need to answer a few marketing questions, such as how you found out about the browser and which services you plan to use it for. Depending on their answers, users will receive several pre-configured profiles with trial proxies and 0.5 GB of available traffic. Users can purchase mobile, residential, and datacenter proxies in GoLogin directly.

GoLogin is convenient for newcomers: you can start working right away without configuring profiles and connecting proxies. However, for professional multi-accounting, the quality of the fingerprint and the ability to configure its parameters to suit your tasks are more important, so pre-configured profiles and free proxies may be ultimately useless.

Let's compare GoLogin and Octo Browser based on their key characteristics.

The main screen in GoLogin shows the profile list table. By default, it displays the profile name, status, notes, and proxy location and status. The table can be customized by adding extra columns with relevant profile details. The table interface is minimalistic, and interaction with profile rows is well-optimized.

In GoLogin, profiles are organized using workspaces, statuses, tags, and folders. In Octo Browser, profile organization is simplified, relying on tags that allow efficient profile filtering.

Both browsers allow users to purchase proxy traffic directly using the browser interface. In GoLogin, users cannot select providers themselves, but they can choose between residential, mobile, and datacenter proxies. In Octo Browser, the in-built Proxy Shop currently offers only residential proxies, but users can choose between multiple verified providers.

For quick profile creation, GoLogin allows pre-setting default configurations, but only one can be saved at a time, requiring manual adjustments when switching setups. In Octo Browser, this function is handled by templates, which can be customized for different needs and applied when creating either standard or quick profiles.

Let’s summarize the strengths and weaknesses of GoLogin and Octo Browser interfaces:

The most important aspect when comparing anti-detect browsers is fingerprint quality. In both browsers, the digital fingerprint is generated based on unique devices. However, GoLogin may use an outdated browser kernel version due to delays in releasing updates. Octo Browser profiles run on the most up-to-date kernel version, which greatly reduces the risk of detection and bans.

The main profile settings in Octo and GoLogin are similar, but there are differences in how settings are organized and in the list of fingerprint parameters. In Octo, the process of creating and editing a profile is more logical, and the tabs are organized more conveniently. GoLogin’s advantages include Android-based spoofing and launch arguments.

Both browsers offer a similar set of profile actions. Octo Browser’s advantages include a built-in Cookie Robot for quick profile prepping and the ability to protect profiles with passwords. GoLogin’s features include the ability to run one to four profiles in the cloud using its web version and bulk fingerprint updates.

GoLogin master account can grant access to:

Team members with access to profiles can either:

In Octo Browser, you can add team members starting from the Team subscription. Invitations can be sent via email. In the Team Settings, you can specify which functions and tags the new team member will have access to. There are also different access levels within each role.

A team member can gain access to:

Tags can also be used as another access parameter. You can grant a new team member access to profiles marked with one or more tags.

Octo Browser also offers an Action Log, a unique feature that allows tracking all actions with profiles, making teamwork even more transparent.

Browser automation can help you save time on routine tasks, especially if you are working with a large number of profiles.

Octo Browser offers detailed automation documentation, and in some of our articles, such as the one covering working with an anti-detect browser on Twitch, we provide example code for mass profile creation using the API.

GoLogin also supports API and provides detailed documentation.

Anti-detect browsers must update their kernel promptly, so that your profiles do not stand out among regular Chrome users.

At the time of writing, the latest GoLogin kernel version was 133, even though Chromium 134 had been released back on March 4. This means that GoLogin users are working on an outdated kernel, which may contain critical vulnerabilities, and profiles on it differ significantly from fingerprints with the latest kernel version.

The corresponding Octo Browser update was released on March 6 — as usual, 1 or 2 days after Google’s update.

You can enable 2FA for account data security in GoLogin, which protects against unauthorized access or password brute-forcing. It is also possible to log out of all active sessions except the one currently running on the device.

Octo Browser also offers 2FA, user data is securely encrypted by default, and additional passwords can be set for selected profiles.

Learning the ropes of an anti-detect browser is made easier not only by an intuitive interface but also by responsive support and detailed documentation. Octo offers support widgets in the browser and on the website, a Telegram bot, and a robust Learning Center. It contains documentation, manuals, and video guides in English, Russian, and Portuguese.

GoLogin’s documentation is not as detailed, and most materials are available only in English. You can contact support via a website widget, a Telegram bot, WhatsApp, or Facebook Messenger.

Choosing an anti-detect browser often depends not only on its features but also on the subscription cost. GoLogin and Octo use different subscription models, so it's not easy to definitively say which browser is more cost-effective in terms of quality and resources it provides for the price.

GoLogin offers four subscription plans: Professional, Business, Enterprise, and Custom; a 50% discount for annual payments is also available. The basic subscription includes 100 profiles; there is also a free subscription offering 3 profiles.

New GoLogin users are offered a 7-day trial period during which they can create up to 1000 profiles. After the trial period ends, the number of available profiles will be reduced to 3 if users switch to the free version.

Octo offers four subscription plans: Starter, Base, Team, and Advanced. There is no trial period, so we recommend the most affordable Starter plan for €29 per month as a trial version. It allows you to create up to 10 profiles and test their performance. You can then upgrade to a higher-tier subscription at any time or purchase additional resources. Different subscriptions allow you to add more profiles, expand your team, and increase API limits.

In Octo Browser, you can purchase a subscription for 3, 6, or 12 months and receive a corresponding discount. Team management in Octo offers more access control options, which is important both for handling a large number of profiles and ensuring their security.

Additionally, Octo Browser users can find attractive deals and discounts in the Partners section.

Both browsers offer referral programs that allow loyal users to earn money. GoLogin pays 10% of the referrals’ purchases, while Octo offers 15% of all payments made by invited users. You can estimate your potential earnings with Octo using a dedicated calculator.

After comparing various aspects of GoLogin and Octo Browser, we conclude that GoLogin is an excellent multi-accounting option for beginners due to its affordable pricing and an available trial period. However, Octo offers more flexible subscription options and a great price for teams. Moreover, by choosing Octo, you get high-quality fingerprints, timely and regular browser kernel updates, high-quality built-in proxies, profile templates, responsive support, and unique features that competitors lack.
