Fast and Efficient Data Scraping Experience
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Apify's pricing is competitive and that access to the scraper is easy. I also appreciate the quality of the data obtained, which is really good and provided quickly at a very good price. I also find that the customer support is excellent, especially Thomas Gabic who resolved my issues very quickly. Finally, I appreciate the scrapers for the main social networks because they make it easier to obtain data that is normally difficult to scrape.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a lack of a credit rollover system, meaning that credits cannot be carried over from one month to the next. Additionally, the input for structuring an API call could be slightly improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Apify to scrape data from large platforms like Instagram and LinkedIn, which is normally very complex. This allows me to have a CRM with up-to-date and qualitative data, obtained quickly and at a very good price.
Prebuilt Actors Make Data Collection Fast and Code-Light
What do you like best about the product?
There are many pre built actors for common platforms like Google Maps, Amazon, LinkedIn, and others. I can often start collecting data without writing code from zero.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I run large scale scraping jobs or many actors in parallel, compute costs increase quickly. It is scalable, but not cheap at volume.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apify helps collect structured data from websites at scale. Instead of manually copying information or building scraping infrastructure from scratch, I can use ready made actors or create my own. It is useful for lead generation, market research, price monitoring, and data extraction. In short, it turns websites into datasets.
Efficient and Scalable Web Data Automation for Business Insights
What do you like best about the product?
Apify’s platform is intuitive, well-organized, and powerful.

It combines ease of use with advanced functionality, making it suitable for a wide range of users.

Powerful Web Scraping and Scalable Cloud Automation
What do you like best about the product?
Apify offers a very complete ecosystem for web scraping and automation. The platform provides a large catalog of ready-made actors, which reduces setup time for common use cases such as data collection from e-commerce sites, social networks, or search engines. The documentation is clear, structured, and technical enough for advanced users. Integration with APIs, cloud storage, and external tools works reliably. Scalability is a strong point, with stable execution even for high-volume workloads.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing model can become restrictive for intensive or long-running tasks, especially for small teams or individual users. Some actors require fine configuration to reach optimal performance, which can slow down initial adoption. Debugging complex runs may feel less intuitive for users who lack strong technical skills. The learning curve remains noticeable for advanced custom actors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
. It fits well within data-driven, research, or monitoring contexts. Despite a few cost and complexity constraints, Apify stands as a reliable solution for scalable web data operations.
Awesome platform for ATS scraping and making side income
What do you like best about the product?
The infrastructure is rock solid for scraping jobs from different ATS platforms. Also, publishing actors and doing their coding challenges has been a great way to make some decent prize money. They always pay on time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Keeping older actors updated when target ATS sites change their layouts can be a bit of a chore, but that's just the reality of web scraping.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It takes care of the heavy lifting and infrastructure needed to scrape across multiple ATS platforms. It also gives me a really reliable way to monetize my code as a publisher through their platform and challenges.
Powerful and Flexible Web Scraping Platform for Automation
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Apify is how flexible and reliable it is for web scraping and automation. The platform makes it easy to run ready-made Actors from the Apify Store, and at the same time, it gives you full control if you want to build custom scrapers.
I also appreciate how everything is cloud-based — scheduling, monitoring, API access, and proxy management are all handled in one place. The dashboard is clean, logs are detailed, and it’s easy to track runs and debug when needed. Once you get used to it, it becomes a very powerful tool.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike for me. It's an gamechanger for my use case. I automated a lot of works using Apify.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apify helps us automate data collection from multiple websites without manual effort. Instead of spending hours gathering information, we can schedule scrapers and get structured data delivered automatically.
This has saved significant time, improved accuracy, and allowed us to focus more on analysis rather than data collection. It’s especially helpful for market research, and lead generation.
