Once I found it and figured out how it worked I was able to dump my US$600 a month Pitchbox software and get 10x the amount of marketing emails for 1/10th the cost.
Pros
I can easily, quickly and cheaply scrape the web for marketing emails. Its so good I cannot believe how good it is. I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation.
Cons
There isn't anything I dislike about Apify.

Great, accessible web scraping tool
Reviewed on 2024/05/29
Pros
Apify's web scrapers have made it easy not just to pull down data from many of the sources I care about, but also to do so in a very affordable manner. Its proxies are also more reliable than other platforms I've used, which makes me more confident that I can get at the data I need, when I need it.
Cons
I know there is more I could be getting out of the platform in terms of customization, but I would need to brush up on my JSON to do so.

Good Tools, Great Support, and Swift Developer Responses
Reviewed on 2023/12/21
Overall, my experience has been very positive.
Overall, my experience has been very positive.
Pros
- Trial period with credits to test a few APIs and integrations. The limit was high enough for me to get a good idea of the APIs I want to use and find one that works well for me.
- Direct communication with the developers. I had a small issue which was resolved immediately. I also made a suggestion for one more data point to be extracted. It was added in no time, which was fantastic.
- Support and Apify tour - the chance to talk to somebody from the team about the platform and for them to recommend sections and features based on your needs and use case. I had a session with Cait. She was brilliant, answered all my questions and suggested functionalities that I hadn't discovered but will definitely make use of going forward.
- Swift approval of my application for student discount. Took 2 minutes to get an approval after my application.
Cons
Can't say that I have anything negative to say do far. If I need to add one, that would be price. I have no direct comparison as I have not tested any alternatives. And since I have no time to search for alternative solutions (dissertation deadline fast approaching) and I am happy with this one so far - I will go with it. During my Apify tour, Cait did suggest that students can apply for Student discount. I wish I had known / applied for it before I had moved on to Starter plan. As a student, I am paying for everything by myself and I can already say that I will need to spend $200+ to get the data that I need.
Response from Apify
Hi Boryana, thank you for the detailed review of Apify! We are really happy your experience has been positive so far and that you were also able to utilize the student discount in the end. Best luck with your dissertation thesis!

Easy of use and user Friendly
Reviewed on 2024/05/01
Pros
I am a newbie, I wanted some insights into particular topics, through use of hashtags on Social Media Platforms. Value/quality at Apify is high, given I can extract data at scale. Apify provides a user-friendly interface and tools that simplify the process of web scraping, even for those without extensive coding experience. It has, if you need, rotating proxies, headless browsers, and anti-bot protection to ensure high-quality and reliable data extraction. For me, export tools is great, making it easier to manage and work with the extracted data.
Cons
While Apify supports many common use cases, custom or niche scraping requirements may not be easily achievable on the platform. Sometimes, issues, arise and tools are not available until updates. It can get expensive for large scale projects.

KORA WORKS - TikTok Scraping for Music Influencer Marketing
Reviewed on 2024/05/16
Pros
It's made our job much easier as most of what we do revolves around tracking our campaigns and how they are performing. So it's much better than going in & individually recording data on each video we work with. Now we get results in minutes and have plugged it into our database so our dashboard can update with newest data & clients know how their campaigns are progressing daily!
Cons
It's not the easiest to understand at first. A colleague of mine who is more familiar with tech & data was able to figure it out but for the rest of us, it's not as easy to understand the functions/how to make things work at first.

Its really easy and straightforward to start using Apify platform, the documentation is great. And bonus for webscraping is the open-source Crawlee library, that made my scraping experience 10x faster than doing it the old school way.

Pros
I really love how Apify helps me with my productivity as someone who doesn't really is in tech. It helps me with readymade quick solutions that surely propels my productivity.
Cons
There's nothing much I can say for now. But, It'd be wise if we can see some tutorials to use certain API's inside each.
