"Scaling reliable data collection by an order of magnitude"

5/5

What do you like best about Ficstar?

The thing that stands out is the reliability. And even as websites change layouts, the data continues to flow unabated. We have had no downtime in delivery schedules Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ficstar?

The pricing model is not transparent in the beginning - you need a call with sales to understand the breakdown Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ficstar:

Ficstar is ideal if you're a big company and don't want to have the headache of maintaining scrapers in-house Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ficstar solving and how is that benefiting you?

We tried running in house enterprise level scrapers a few times but they broke every time. Ficstar had our back and provided us with a reliable competitor monitoring, instrumental to our foresight and planning Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Enterprise Scraping without Headaches"

5/5

Ficstar was able to scrape the types of complicated sites that our internal tools just couldn't do. Their crawlers seem to be very stable, despite the layout being changed all the time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ficstar?

Set up was a little slow to start out since the project was pretty large Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ficstar solving and how is that benefiting you?

We wasted a lot of time fixing scrapers ourselves. Having Ficstar as a partner allowed us to take that off our plate and keep our data streams flowing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ficstar provides more than support, they act like data consultants"

What do you like best about Ficstar?

Their support team doesn't just respond, they actively collaborate to refine scope, troubleshoot issues and optimize performance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Startups growing into data driven decision making will appreciate Ficstar's professionalism and customization Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ficstar solving and how is that benefiting you?
