Dependable solution for competitive research
What do you like best about the product?
I especially like that Bright Data can provide for specific requests when collecting public data. It consolidates the facets that are necessary for gaining intricate insight of the market, which has enhanced the way we address decisions. It runs seamlessly every time without fail even if deadlines are stressed and ensures our projects move on as planned. This precision and reliability afford us with the assurance to run campaigns exceptionally well having concrete data sources.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest drawback of Bright Data is that you can quickly run into steep cost challenges, as the usage can quickly add up. One of the troubles with this purpose is that we do not always get the same data when we search for something exceptionally special. They make us perform processes again and waste time which is frustrating when projects are time bound. Overall, the platform is quite good, but at times these sets back bring an efficiency hit at the right time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bright Data has overcome the difficulty of quickly and efficiently sourcing the public data. The time it took to collect information for market research was much longer, and the information was less consistent. Then we don’t have to waste hours gathering data; now we can simply focus on interpreting our data. For one, it helps us identify opportunities in new markets and enabling us to grow our business. However, because of its ability to be in sync with varying trends it is a helpful asset to being competitive.
Incredible amount of Data
What do you like best about the product?
As we're working in a space trying to democratise access to carbon emissions data, we were welcomed onto the Bright data initiative. It gave us free access to their data sets and tools which we have been able to harness and push our mission forward.
What is incredible is the amount of data they can handle and surface so quickly, and the breadth of their data collection is almost unfathomable.
Their onboarding was incredible, we always had a dedicated person we could speak to about our needs, and even for some niche requirements in data sets our queries were listened to and data sets enriched in real time for us.

What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike at all about Bright Data, they've been really great to work with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Their data has helped us identify companies that should be reporting carbon emissions under UK and EU reporting directives. We have then been able to deploy our proprietary tools to search for carbon emissions they might have publicly declared.
Exceptional Support and Clear Guidance on Data Scraping
What do you like best about the product?
I had a positive experience with Bright Data's support, especially with Adam. He provided clear explanations that helped clarify my confusion about dataset IDs and scraping options. The real-time data scraping capabilities are simple and efficient. The platform is well-documented, and the examples were helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Couldnt find anything in praticular, but I will say the prices can be lowered.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bright Data is capable of getting real time data in scale, it provides API to trigger their scrappers, which helps me to integrate their system and make split second desicions based on real time data.
Reliable product with continual innovation
What do you like best about the product?
In several capacities with several different organisations, I have been a customer of Brightdata for over 5 years. In that time, I have seen the reliability of their solution increase. This is over a period where web hosting services and information platforms are also innovating at speed to prevent Brightdata from doing exactly what they do. It's been easy to integrate into my data platforms for very frequent jobs.
In simple terms: Brightdata gets around the blocking mechanisms that are put in place so I can get the data that I need.
When I've had problems, customer service have been proactive and helpful.

What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is slight, but there's certainly a learning curve. I think they have opportunities to use GenAI to help overcome that, and I hope their roadmap takes full advantage of AI in the near future to help setup scrapes using natural language.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's solves the problem of having to "break" each individual source of scraping data individually. It gets around 95+% of them without having to figure it out for yourself.

Micro copy of some tools could be a bit more descriptive and clear as to their use and purpose.
The indeed and linkedIn logo are almost identical which is confusing, although probably not Bright Data's fault

Bright Data is very user friendly whilst being a comprehensive tool for scraping with a vast number of features. It has an excellent UX and is very performant, also in complex scraping contexts.

The online documentation could be more elaborated and made easier to explore. But this is offset by a fantastic and responsive support team

Powerful proxy network for uninterrupted data gathering
What do you like best about the product?
The top feature of Bright Data is how reliable, real time data I can retrieve without having to deal with things like IP blocks. With the large proxy network I can gather valuable data from diverse website without any issue. We like it because it works well with our analysis software and we can collect and use the data for research and business intelligence. All the flexibility that the platform brings is invaluable as it allows us to get the insights we need that much faster and better.
What do you dislike about the product?
The bigguest issue I have with Bright Data is it has a little high priced for smaller teams or companies with less budgets. Setting up can also be tough for people who do not know what the data scraping tools look like. The documentation is good, but it's all still learning curve, so sometimes it drags down things you wanted to implement. Moreover, the platform fails occasionally to achieve acceptable performance with quite large datasets by slowing the speed and reliability of data retrieval.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gathering data from websites that usually block scraping attempts is one of the main things that Bright Data have helped us solve for. Having a large proxy network means we literally have no problem getting and collecting the data that we need. This all has really sped up our market research process and we get way more diverse and detailed data which then helps us make better decisions and better business strategies.
Effective proxy networks for global data access
What do you like best about the product?
The way Bright Data updates data multiple times a day to keep everything accurate and reliable is what I especially like about it. That's because the sheer amount of proxies can be used to proxy various information concurrently. Over time we've scaled our operations on its ability to handle millions of requests per day, whether tracking competitor prices across regions, or anything else. The biggest value of this, I think, is that it is a simple, dependable, solution to ensuring that we have consistency in our data workflows.
What do you dislike about the product?
A disadvantage of Bright Data is its slowness to respond during heavy traffic peaks, which interrupt us. That said, it’s also a little overwhelming at first, only adding more features to a tool we can't focus on what's always most important: the key features we need to utilize. Some times this has delayed the important competitor analysis, which affects timing of decision making and our response to market changes on a couple of occasions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Bright Data, we overcome the obstacle of scraping accurate, diverse data for tracking your competitors. We use its vast proxy network to get our data without getting blocked and help smooth operations. This automates it for us so we can save time and continue to have a steady flow of accurate insights that keep us competitive in our industry. And it has completely changed how we treat and approach data collection and analysis, enabling us to be far more agile in our decision making.
Straightforward experience, solid support
What do you like best about the product?
The service seems to be comprehensive for what I need and the support is responsive and provides good information.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their documentation is fairly sparse. More thorough documentation would be beneficial.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Bright Data to conduct research, and it's much easier to use the API to gather the data programmatically than to do it manually through other means.
