There isn’t anything I dislike about using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me extract data, which is why I started using it. When I first published my API, its marketplace was also very good and helped a small developer like me reach some users.
Best scraping and automation tool
What do you like best about the product?
I like the independence, reliability, serverless platform, and giving developers the opportunity to earn passive income. It is also very easy to integrate the API endpoints to build frontend applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike nothing about Apify. I think that it is a great platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data extraction and easy integration with other tools are the main problems that Apify is solving. It is benefiting me because I am also an entrepreneur, and these tools give me a serverless platform to develop actors that other people can benefit from. It also gives developers an option to earn passive income.
Powerful, Flexible, and Reliable Web Scraping That Scales with Ease
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Apify is how it combines power, flexibility, and reliability in one platform. The ready-made actors make it easy to get started quickly, while the option to build custom actors allows us to handle complex, real-world use cases. It handles dynamic websites extremely well, scales without infrastructure headaches, and fits seamlessly into our existing workflows—helping us move faster and focus on insights rather than manual data collection.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about Apify is that some advanced use cases come with a steeper learning curve, especially for non-technical users. Debugging failed runs can also take time, as logs are detailed but not always easy to interpret quickly. Additionally, at higher usage levels, cost predictability requires close monitoring, which means teams need to plan and optimize runs carefully.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apify solves the problem of manual, time-consuming, and inconsistent web data collection. Instead of relying on people to repeatedly search, copy, and organize data from multiple websites, Apify automates the entire process and delivers clean, structured outputs.
This benefits us by saving significant time and effort, improving data accuracy, and allowing us to scale research and monitoring tasks without increasing headcount. As a result, we can move faster, make better data-driven decisions, and focus more on strategy and execution rather than manual data gathering.

The Gold Standard for Building High-Performance AI Data Engines
What do you like best about the product?
The sheer versatility of the platform is unmatched. I was able to build a sophisticated "Intelligence Engine" using Playwright and PDF parsing while staying within a 1GB RAM footprint. The "Bring Your Own Key" (BYOK) AI flexibility is a huge advantage, allowing me to build scalable tools without worrying about vendor lock-in or high compute costs.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve for the metadata and input schemas is quite steep. The platform is very strict about naming conventions (like dataset names needing specific hyphenation) and mandatory description fields. While it ensures high-quality tools in the Store, it can be a bit frustrating for new developers during the first few builds.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apify solves the problem of manual data interpretation. I use it to automate the interpretation of dense, high-stakes data—like regulatory portals and PDF filings—that usually requires hours of manual reading. It allows me to transform raw text into structured business intelligence. This benefits me by cutting research time by 90% and ensuring institutional-level accuracy through a fully automated, grounded intelligence pipeline that is ready for enterprise use.
Reliable LinkedIn Data Scraping That Just Works
What do you like best about the product?
I needed a reliable way to grab LinkedIn data for sales prospecting and monitoring job listings. Apify's pre-built actors made setup surprisingly painless, just plug in your parameters and go. The pricing model works well for my use case since I only pay for what I actually use. Most importantly, it just works. I've had consistent results without babysitting the runs.
What do you dislike about the product?
No big feedback at all for disliking. Everything was pretty straight forward to setup after reading the readme's, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helped me efficiently grab data from LinkedIn that you can't easily get elsewhere.
Generous Free Plan and User-Friendly for All
What do you like best about the product?
The free plan gives a lot, easy to use for non professionals, integration with make.com
What do you dislike about the product?
Some options could be explained more clearly for those who are not professionals.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed an email list for direct messaging, and I was able to obtain it using apify.
Flexible, Reliable, and Production-Ready Web Scraping Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Apify stands out for its flexibility and reliability when working with web scraping and automation tasks. The biggest advantage is the combination of ready-made actors and the ability to create fully custom solutions when needed. This allows you to start quickly and then scale or customize without changing platforms.
I also really like how easy it is to integrate Apify with other tools using APIs and webhooks. Scheduling, monitoring runs, and working with structured datasets saves a lot of time and removes the need to maintain custom infrastructure. Overall, it feels like a mature, production-ready platform.

What do you dislike about the product?
The main downside is the learning curve at the beginning. New users may need some time to understand core concepts like actors, datasets, and usage-based pricing. The interface is powerful but can feel a bit overwhelming at first due to the number of available features.
That said, once you get familiar with the platform and documentation, these issues become much less noticeable and do not block everyday use.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apify helps automate data extraction and monitoring tasks that would otherwise require a lot of manual work or custom infrastructure. It allows collecting structured data on a regular schedule and integrating it directly into other systems or workflows.
As a result, it saves time, reduces operational overhead, and makes data more accessible for further processing and analysis. This has improved efficiency and allowed faster decision-making without increasing development or maintenance costs

Excellent Data Scraping Platform with Great Value
What do you like best about the product?
This is an excellent platform for data scraping, catering to everyone from beginners to experienced users. The pricing is very reasonable considering the quality and amount of information you receive.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would appreciate having more specialized scrapers tailored to specific websites, though I realize this depends on developer involvement. It would be great to see more developers join the platform. Additionally, I find the pricing structures somewhat confusing at times, which can result in unexpected charges.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool quickly pulls Google search results for multiple queries within seconds, making it easy to find valuable leads for both B2B and B2C email and social media marketing.
