ScrapingBee

“Check out ScrapingBee or Apify - both are solid premium options that handle a lot of the heavy lifting for you. ScrapingBee especially if you're dealing with JS-heavy sites since they handle the browser stuff automatically”

“I spent 3 years building the 'perfect' custom scraper. Then I realized my job was 'Data Scientist,' not 'Cat-and-Mouse Game Professional against Cloudflare .' Now I just pay for a SERP API or Zyte and pass the cost to the client. My mental health has improved 400% and the pipeline actually runs on Mondays.”

“For small side projects I usually either just run my own scraper with cheap rotating proxies, or try simple APIs like ScraperAPI or ScrapingBee since they handle IP rotation & CAPTCHAs and have easy pricing for small usage, and for a bit more power you can look at Apify or lightweight budget options like ScrapingDog/ZenRows pricing, anti-bot robustness, and good proxy rotation matter most, while enterprise tools like Bright Data are way overkill for side projects.”

“Hello There After dealing with the high costs and confusing credit-based pricing of web scraping APIs—where what seems cheap at first glance quickly becomes expensive enough was enough I built my own web scraper API that not only saves me money but also bypasses Cloudflare effortlessly. The credit-based pricing models were always confusing and seemed deceptively affordable until the bills started piling up. Building my own solution gave me more control and clarity If you're tired of overcomplica”

“ScrapingBee is probably the most convenient and useful web scraping API I have ever used. Their pricing levels are very affordable. Most importantly, they allow 200 concurrent requests, which has been essential for our company in performing tasks quickly. Their Youtube API used to have an option for transcriptions, but it's not there anymore. It's not really their fault because Youtube changed their website. But it was inconvenient to have to work around it. A lot of data was not reachable by ou”

“Great Scraper with filtering features — excellent. happily recommend to anyone.\ support is the best. hardly any down time. very low error rates.\ even with the lowest cost settings of render_js = false and using US data centers, i am able to get all the extraction i need. — good value. excellent support.\ i primarily use the scraping. i particularly like the extraction (css, xpath) feature, because with this extraction i dont have to do my own DOM. — there is a learning curve. and documentation”

“Hi, we are currently using 3 web scraping API's mostly for legacy reasons and to be able to have a variety of web scrapers for different sites. I am finding 2 of these performing poorly and am looking for alternatives. Currenly using: ScraperAPI. Have a legacy cheaper plan so have kept it, but often it will return a 500 error when scapfly works every time. ScrapingBee. Got in when the started and they were very good. Also noticing a lot of failures where scrapfly would work. ScrapFly. Seems to w”

“We're building a price comparison platform and need to scrape product data from multiple ecommerce sites. Around 20k products daily and our current setup breaks constantly. Tried handling this internally but our devs aren't scraping specialists and honestly it's taking too much of their time. Need a best web scraping agency or data extraction agency that can handle building and maintaining scrapers for us. We understand scrapers break and need daily maintenance, that's exactly why we want expert”

“Hello guys, I am trying to scrape products and reviews but Amazon keeps blocking me... I tried Apify, Scrapebee, ScraperAPI, ScrapeAPI... but nothing works properly...whats your experience?”

“Dev experience and the people of ScrapingBee. Rytas and his team are magicians! My experience with them was very well received and they manage to pull me back after I thought I made up my mind with a competitor. I'm sure Rytas closed bigger clients, but he was focused on what I need and my data issues. While running a small sample size test, I ran into a bug during after hours. I brought it up with Rytas. Him and his team was able to get it resolve very quickly! This is what convinced me that Sc”

“I like using ScrapingBee for its reliability, which is super important for us as a small product service. Their proxies are super reliable and help me run scraping without getting blocked regularly. The customer support is smooth, easy to understand, and they have a lot of empathy, solving problems brilliantly. Most times, support is a major issue with other tech platforms, but not with them. The features are well laid out for each plan, and the documentation makes it easy for my tech team to un”

“Honest support. Not performative, not upsold — honest. When my initial approach hit a wall, their team told me clearly what wasn't working, gave me a refund without me asking for one, and sent a follow-up after I found my own solution with an even better technical path I hadn't considered. Most support interactions in SaaS feel like they're trying to close the ticket. This one felt like they wanted my project to succeed. The product itself is strong. Premium Proxy with header forwarding and Java”

“I like that ScrapingBee's platform works exactly as expected and solves our problem of creating personalized videos on a larger scale. I'm really happy with it. What really stands out to me is their support, which is professional, clear, and provides helpful answers. That level of customer care matters, especially in today's AI-driven space where tools are everywhere, but companies that truly take care of their customers are rare. It's something I value deeply, and it's how we run our own busine”

“I'm trying to use Scraping Bee's data extraction tool to scrape profile information but I can't figure out how to extract the necessary details. Scraping Bee's tool uses CSS selectors so when I try to extract the education section for example it just returns the first instance of that class, not the education section. I also tried using Xpath converted to a CSS selector but it just doesn't return anything. Let me know if you have any ideas, thanks! Edit: Using https://nubela.co/proxycurl/linkedi”

“The large choice of already implemented builders that allow us to retrieve data from almost every source. Pricing is really great and there are no lock outs from services. Our Dev Team implemented Scraping Bee easily and within 2 days to get everything done. We use it daily within our internal monitoring Tool that we use for multiple clients of ours. There is really nothing that comes to mind that would make us dislike ScrapingBee. We are using ScrapingBee to retrieve Data from a site to have in”
