"Saving precious time and manual work by utilizing the no-code Web Scraper API for social media"
What do you like best about Bright Data?

With a limited amount of technical data in scraping, I found that the no-code scrapers were very helpful and exactly what I needed to focus on my work. The amount of time that it saved me is now invested in continuing my research and analyzing a much larger dataset that would have taken me months to collect.

I am now able to fully control my collection with many self service options on their platform, enabling me to collect that data for my research for the next two-months at ease. After the first few snapshots collected, I received a clean dataset as a CSV file where I am now able to analyze with my team.

Something important to note as an academic researcher is the data collection integrity and methods, therefore I was happy to learn about their ethical approach regarding their data collection. Knowing that they are compliant with the GDPR and CCPA was very helpful for our team when presenting the methods of our data collection to our professors. Bright Data's "Trust Center" page was very informative and addressed may of our questions regarding the ethical aspect of scraping as we were slightly hesitant as we are less familiar with such technologies.

What do you dislike about Bright Data?

I think that having a no-code data collection from social media was exactly what we needed so I'm not quite sure if I have something to dislike.

The team was very helpful and and addressed all of our questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable proxies and great experience with Bright Data"
What do you like best about Bright Data?

I’ve been using Bright Data’s data center and ISP proxies for a large-scale data collection, and they’ve been working very well. The ISP proxies are very reliable and easy to integrate into my workflow.

The platform itself is very intuitive, and the resources provided made it easy to learn and get started quickly.

In addition, their customer service has been really excellent, always quick to respond and very helpful whenever I had questions.

Overall, it's definitely worth recommending. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The customer support was also very timely and excellent. Whenever I emailed them with a technical question, they always replied promptly with answers that solved my exact problem.

"The Leader in Scraping"
What do you like best about Bright Data?

How easily it works, we spend years trying to build our own collectors with mixed results. They're adding new code and no-code prebuilt collectors which make the work so simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bright Data?

We needed to outsource collector creation to a partner company in order to own the code, having Bright Data build it for us would have been ideal, but we would not have been able to own the scripts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"We finally got our data collection under control"
What do you like best about Bright Data?

High quality and scalable data collection is what Bright Data brings the table. Its proxy network is so robust that using it to bypass geo restrictions is more than seamless. For instance, if a website you want to scrape is accessible only in a given country, Bright Data is an excellent choice. Another standout piece is the integration features that the tool has – they are easy to integrate with several tools and platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bright Data?

While it’s priced a bit steep for small businesses or individual use users. It would be nice if we could get something other pricing tiers or discounts if it’s for long term. Further, some of the more advanced features are steep to learn. The basic functionalities are easy to use, but customizing the deeper options takes some bit of time. However, the documentation is fortunately quite comprehensive, but could use some more beginner friendly tutorials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Tool with Perfect Data and Stellar Service"
What do you like best about Bright Data?

I appreciate Bright Data’s ability to seamlessly scrape LinkedIn data, which is notoriously challenging to collect. Their data scraping capabilities are perfect for my research needs. Setting up their services was straightforward, integrating easily with our AWS infrastructure. I also value the approachable and supportive customer service. Additionally, the frequency at which they scrape data fits my requirements perfectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
