It does take a little bit of massaging to ensure the tool is working right, but if you had a missile, wouldn't you hope that the missile needs a little bit of calibration or would you just fire it out of the box?

Powerful Web Scraping Software That Can Scale
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the flexibility and power behind the Apify platform. It has everything you need to build customized web scrapers that work on even the most complicated websites. Support is excellent, with the team always on hand to answer any queries and great help site documentation. Unlike a lot of other tools, the developer environment is outstanding, with a marketplace full of pre-built web scrapers being developed all the time. Finally, for really large web scraping jobs, Apify has all the tools you need for handling these jobs (proxies, API support etc) that make it stand out.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd say the only drawback with Apify would be the initial learning curve with the system. If the site you're scraping isn't too popular and there isn't a pre-made web scraper in the marketplace, you'll need to write one yourself, which requires coding know-how. In a funny way, this was actually good in the end as I taught myself to code them fairly quickly and learned a new skill along the way. I would just factor this in if you're non-technical - talk to the team at Apify and see if there can point you to someone who can support you or look up their library of pre-built web scrapers to see if the site is supported.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apify automates data collection which I use for sales & marketing campaigns and market research on behalf of my clients
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Talk to the team at Apify and see if it meets your needs, I've used many different web scraping tools, and I keep coming back to Apify for its power and flexibility.
