Effortless Web Scraping with Community Support
What do you like best about the product?
I find Apify really easy to use, especially when it comes to finding templates. It's handy that others are doing similar things, which makes it simple to find and replicate their approaches for my own web scraping projects. I also like how well Apify solves my problem of coming up with my own scrappy ideas by using community templates or formulas. It's definitely a good feature for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
I tried to publish my own file, but the documentation for publishing is a little bit tricky. It could be better if the documentation was more friendly to general users and not just speak to developers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apify helps me by providing community templates, making it easy to find existing solutions for web data scraping, which solves my problem without starting from scratch.
Intuitive and Easy Setup but Testing Changes Could be Better
What do you like best about the product?
I find Apify intuitive to use, yet it's a powerful technical tool. Setting up an actor's JSON page function was made easy using the pre-built forms. I also appreciate how relatively easy it is to set up and get started with Apify, even if you have little-to-no prior experience using it. The initial setup was quite easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really have a good or easy way to test changes quickly without saving and running the actor entirely.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Apify for scraping event webpages to gather data. It makes setting up a JSON page function easy with its pre-built forms. It's intuitive and powerful, even for those with no prior experience, making it easy to set up and get started.

Efficient Data Extraction with Room for Instruction Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I used Apify’s Google Maps Scraper and found it straightforward to set up, which helped me extract location and business information efficiently. Apify helped me save time and avoid repetitive manual work by quickly gathering accurate and structured information, improving my project planning and analysis. What I like most about Apify is its ease of use and flexibility. The flexibility lets me adjust the settings to extract the specific data I need, making it practical for different projects. The initial setup of Apify was fairly easy, and I was able to start extracting data without major issues. Apify is very useful for automating data extraction.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing that could be improved is the initial setup instructions for some Scrapers. The main challenge was understanding some of the advanced settings in the Google Maps Scraper. The instructions assume familiarity with certain terms and options. Adding more step-by-step examples or screenshots could make the setup clearer for new users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apify saves me time and avoids repetitive manual work by allowing me to quickly gather accurate, structured data from multiple websites, improving project planning and analysis.
Efficient Web Scraping, Quick Automation
What do you like best about the product?
I use Apify for web scraping and automation, and it has been really helpful. The ready-made actors save a lot of time, and the platform is easy to use even for non-developers. Apify helps me automate web data collection, saving time by helping me scrape large amounts of data quickly. What I like most about Apify is how it makes web scraping easy; the ready-made actors save time and still allow flexibility when customization is needed. The initial setup of Apify was pretty straightforward for me and my team. The user-friendly dashboard and detailed documentation made it easy to get started quickly, even for team members who aren't very technical. I rate Apify an 8 out of 10; it's a powerful and flexible tool that saves a lot of time.
What do you dislike about the product?
One area that could be improved is the pricing, especially for heavier usage, as actors can add up quickly when running multiple actors. Also, some advanced features have a learning curve at first, but once you get familiar with the platform, it becomes much easier to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Apify for web scraping and automation, saving time with ready-made actors for data extraction. It helps automate web data collection, eliminating manual tasks and allowing quick scraping of large data. The platform is user-friendly even for non-developers.

Great for Scraping Airbnb Listings and Gathering Useful Info
What do you like best about the product?
using it to scrape airbnb listings for useful info
What do you dislike about the product?
In the beggining it looks a little too "techy" and I wasnt comfortable using the tool. Maybe a quick tutorial or chat to help would be more user-friendly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Need to know addresses for airbnbs.
Crazy-Easy Scraping, But Limited Modular Agentic Workflows
What do you like best about the product?
The upsides are it makes the scraping easy to a crazy level, it almost makes it as easy as using instagram.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesnt have much for modular agentic workflows(as far as i know)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves the need to manually get a bunch of workarounds, many workflows, etc into a singular platform, and it helps us implement applications on that data layer
Versatile Web Scraping with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I like the most that Apify provides a free tier so I can try out the actors without having to pay upfront. It's really helpful because sometimes the actors are not as useful as I expected, so I can keep looking for the best one without any cost. I also appreciated that Apify's initial setup is really good. The API data access is really efficient, and when I'm trying to authenticate API actors, it's seamless. They provide both call data and JSON data for inputs, which makes the process smooth and efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when I used to scrape LinkedIn sales snippet exports, the results are limited to a few first items, like maybe the first 100 or 200 items only. They're not able to move forward. Some actors have pagination options, but they don't really work well as expected. I had to move outside of the API sometimes because of this. If the developers could improve the API efficiency, it would be better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apify solves the problem of web scraping where general models can't. It scrapes LinkedIn, Google My Business, Yelp, and more, automating data collection for clients and my team.
Effective Web Scraping Made Simple with Apify
What do you like best about the product?
I find that Apify has made scraping Google Maps leads for my local manufacturing company so much easier compared to other tools. It's powerful, and I love the specific feature that allows me to connect it with Claude via MCP. This connection lets me type what I want and scrape the leads I need efficiently. The setup was also incredibly easy; I just logged in, paid for it, used my free credit, and went from there without any hassle.
What do you dislike about the product?
none/pricing?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Apify for scraping Google Maps leads. It makes the process so much easier and more powerful than other tools.
