Different scale, different buyer.
Netcraft publishes bank-scale volume and speed. Smaller teams with a handful of incidents are buying a different level of operation.

Fair comparison
Netcraft's strengths
What Netcraft does well
By their own account, Netcraft handles roughly a third of the world's phishing takedowns. They report 220 million+ cybercrime attacks blocked and 25 million+ attacks taken down, and push blocklist countermeasures within minutes of detection. The company has been at this since 1995, with registrar and hosting relationships built over three decades, and 16 of the 50 largest banks in the world trust them with exactly this job.
When Netcraft is the better choice
For a bank facing thousands of phishing URLs a month, Netcraft's automation is built for that volume.
Where Netcraft doesn't fit, and why companies look for alternatives
Bank-scale volume vs. a handful of incidents a year.
Netcraft's pipeline is optimized for institutions feeding it phishing URLs at scale. A Mittelstand company with three incidents a year gets industrial machinery sized for a different customer.
Quote-only pricing.
There's no public price list, and the billing model isn't published. When your cost depends on a quote you can't compare, budgeting a single incident means a sales process first.
Built around phishing URLs and domains.
Netcraft's core machine is URL and domain disruption at volume. Impersonation rarely stays in one channel: fake social profiles, fake shops and fraudulent ads are part of the same attack. nebty treats those as core scope, not an add-on.
Pricing: a flat fee you can budget

Quote only
billing model not published (July 2026)
Netcraft's pricing is quote-only (as of July 2026). The billing model isn't published either, so the total for your situation only emerges from their sales process.

The process
How nebty works
Monitoring (a subscription) and takedowns (per case) are two independent services, bookable separately or together. Combined, they interlock like this:
-
We monitor 24/7.
Lookalike domains, phishing clones, fake shops and fake profiles targeting your brand. Detection typically within hours of going live.
-
You confirm, we act.
Send us the URL, or click once in the dashboard. We handle registrar, host and blocklist escalation, fully managed, in English or German.
-
You pay on success.
€400/$450 per takedown, only when the content is down. Free re-takedown if it returns.
Common questions
FAQ
Short answers to the questions we hear most about this topic.
Your question is not on the list? Ask Benedikt directly Is nebty faster than Netcraft?
Netcraft publishes the following medians: disruption within 5 minutes and a 33-minute median phishing takedown. The relevant question for most buyers isn't who is fastest at bank scale. It's whether you need bank-scale machinery for a handful of incidents a year, with quote-only pricing and no German-language service.
What does Netcraft cost?
There is no public price (as of July 2026); everything runs through a custom quote, and the billing model is not published, so budgeting a single incident means going through their sales process first.
Does nebty cover social media impersonation?
Yes. Fake profiles and pages are core scope alongside fake websites, phishing and lookalike domains. Impersonation rarely stays in one channel. Monitoring watches both websites and social profiles, and takedowns handle both.
Can I use nebty alongside Netcraft?
Yes. nebty has no minimum term, so you can run it in parallel with an existing contract and compare results before deciding anything.
Does nebty do browser blocklisting too?
Yes. Blocklist submission runs in parallel with the takedown, so browsers start warning users while the removal is in progress.
