01 / SIDE BY SIDE
The details that matter.
Both offer control over unwanted automation. Their deployment and day-to-day operating models differ.
| Consideration | BunkerWeb | TraBotPro |
|---|---|---|
| Deployment | A reverse proxy placed in front of web services. [1] | Integrated with NGINX on Hypernode; other hosting environments are a future direction. |
| Browser verification | Antibot challenges include JavaScript and CAPTCHA options; the feature is disabled by default. [2] | Background checks and progressive verification for suspicious browser traffic. |
| Exceptions | Antibot bypasses can target URIs, IPs and reverse-DNS names. [2] | Scope exceptions to trusted integrations and routes; review their effect in monitor mode. |
| Custom pages | The PRO Custom Pages plugin covers error and antibot challenge pages. [3] | Pro includes custom 403 and challenge templates. |
| Configuration | Settings configure services and security behaviour. [1] | Fleet defaults, site overrides and bot/category policies define the local decision. |
Self-hosting does not automatically mean a product can be installed on every managed platform. Confirm privileges, supported deployment and operational responsibility for your environment.

A payment callback must reach your store
A server-to-server callback cannot complete a browser challenge. Identify the legitimate integration and scope its exception carefully. Keep browser-facing protection active elsewhere.
