Capterra Reviews

PROS

I highly recommend Capterra for small-to-medium-sized companies undergoing organizational changes. It helps with quick decision-making and assessments.I wouldn't recommend using it to make final decisions but rather to assess and compare pricing and functionality in an easy manner.

CONS

Well no cons,but When performing actions from the mobile version, it takes some time for them to appear on the computer version of this somewhat complicated program.

I like the product

In general, I like the product, I just wish that you can handle the configuration and retries at your end and avoid writing and maintaining a lot of logic to accept/reject/retry the call. (I am not mentioning 520 errors, I am talking here about 200 ok)Even for 520, it would be great, if those can be retries directly from crawlbase, and get a directly final answer, and no need to retry and see if it will work next or not.

PROS

Don't know what to say here. Nut, I like the product in general. I could contact engineers and I appreciate prioritizing requests and even considering needed features.

CONS

The huddle that the end user needs to tackle:- Custom solutions for different domains. (e.g. specific country for specific domains: GB for AliExpress, etc.)- There is no good auto config (suggested config) and users needs to find it out by them selves (Certain websites require JS, others don't, ajax_wait, country)- No validation on the results (Many times I am getting blocked links, restriction pages, empty pages, and still the Crawler return 200ok. While, with another retry, I might succeed in getting the desired output!)At the end I had to do many retries for the same URL to ensure getting the best output as the results are non-deterministicExtra point:The customer support doesn't consider customers experience dealing with the product. Every, time I have to go into the very basic stuff, (try JS, change the token, etc...) I guess, CrawlBase should consider how long the customer has been dealing with the product and bypass the basic checks, etc.

Reason for choosing Crawlbase

I was satisfied with the results and especially Amazon parser, which was good enough.

Great way to mine data for Machine Learning

PROS

It's so easy to use the API to crawl and scrape Amazon product data.

CONS

I wish they had dedicated scrapers for more ecommerce sites that yield the same quality of data as their Amazon scraper

Reasons for switching to Crawlbase

Oxlyabs ate my credits really fast and it wasn't very intuitive to use for me

amazing Crawlbase

PROS

The data is accurate and consistent in the API results. When I need different data, I contact support, and they promptly respond and do their best to solve my issues. Having 1000 requests in the trial version made testing much easier for me.

CONS

For now, there's nothing I dislike :)...

Reason for choosing Crawlbase

The data was insufficient.

A game changer

Crawlbase, the web scraping tool, has proven to be a game-changer in data extraction.However, its pricing, while justified for its quality, may not be budget-friendly for everyone.

PROS

Its intuitive interface and powerful features make it indispensable for businesses and researchers. It's a tool worth considering for those who demand top-notch scraping capabilities.

CONS

Not for the budget friendly people. There is room for improvement at certain areas
