What is Apify?

Apify lets developers and companies automate all manual workflows they usually do on the web. Customers are able to use one of 200+ ready-made tools for web scraping and web automation to scrape web pages, e-commerce platforms, mobile apps, social media, and other websites. You can extract data and automate workflows in a few clicks with Apify.

Key benefits of using Apify

Developing web scraping and automation solutions in-house is costly and ineffective. What initially seems like a simple and quick project can become a costly adventure because of anti-scraping protections, proxies, scaling issues, and new challenges that tend to pop up whenever the target websites change their structure.

Pros
I liked how easy it was to get started, the apify team supported me from the beggining to the end of the development, it help me make a perfect solution for our use case in juste a few hours.
Actually writing this review is even more time that I spent with APIFY on setting up an actor - this is is a reliable and great service. Very user friendly as well.
Apify is very easy to set up for your project, scrapers, APIs, actors, and more are very nice and work perfectly always.
Cons
The pricing was a bit confusing. I wanted to buy more memory to get a bigger database but I think that even If I bought a month more, my data transfer was way too high due to using the trial.
Apify core devs are sometimes so agile that it makes it hard to keep track of all the new features released.
I struggle with finding something I did not like about apify.

Best scraping market place on the web

Reviewed 2 months ago

Overall I am very happy I stumbled upon this platform - I have learn more making my own actors than I would have paying for some low performing apps

Pros

I love that you can easily review and test multiple actors on the market, interact with the developers and do more

Cons

It was a steep learning forever to begin but got the hang of it quickly

Web Scraping and Web Automation that WORKS

Reviewed 4 years ago

Very happy, I am able to download data on competitors' pricing as well as to do additional research on new prospects and key accounts that I would have to do manually otherwise. I'd recommend Apify.

Pros

I use Apify's Web Scrapers almost daily. It saves me a lot of time as I don't have to manually copy paste information I need for my work. I like simplicity of it and that it JUST works. I tried different web scrapers before but they were buggy and always had some issues.

Cons

No cons I can think of, support is timely and very helpful, I feel appreciated as a customer.

Good for extraction but customer support is pathetic

Reviewed 2 years ago

Overall good platform for data extraction but customer support is pathetic even when you are paid subscriber

Pros

- Powerful data extraction - Scalable infrastructure - Scheduling & feature rich

Cons

- Customer support is worst nightmare with them - Pricing is unfair (They even don't have clarification on how you billed certain amount) - It has bugs which are lasting months even after reporting. Actor gets stuck forever causing you billing - Reporting is not integrated part of dashboard

Affordable and versatile webscraping platform

Reviewed 3 years ago

This is a versatile tool for webscraping which is absolutely affordable for startup businesses. I've found it particularly useful for scraping information from Instagram. If you want to use the software for scraping individual websites, then Apify also provides easy-to-understand guides for this process. Having no prior knowledge of writing code, I used these guides to put Apify's webscraper to the task at a basic level.

Pros

Customer service is excellent - Apify is always quick to respond and happy to help with queries.

Cons

The last time I checked, there were no existing actors which allowed me to scrape content published by brands on LinkedIn. For this process I used PhantomBuster instead.

Great service, great after-sales service

Reviewed 4 years ago

We have a great experience with the service. I made it work with only few hours of testing, and now i have extended the use of this service to other internal service in our company.

Pros

This is working pretty well. Good documentation. Lots of examples. Good blog articles.

Cons

understanding the usage credit is tedious.
