It was very easy to use. I installed the plugin, set up my first alert, and that was it. Now I get an auto-update every time the site is updated, within 30 minutes. Super useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Distill.io? Not much to complain about, I guess the UI is not very fancy? It kind of looks like it was designed in 2008 or something, but as you won't spend much time in the UI I don't think that matters much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Distill.io solving and how is that benefiting you? There is a specific site that I frequent which is updated randomly, and there is no email list to find out when it is updated. This plugin makes it easy for me - no time checking the website for updates, I just get an alert when it does. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
