What do you like best about ipstack?

IPStack provides easy-to-use services and excellent documentation. So far, I am using their IP geolocation service, which is pretty accurate and fast. I am also planning to use their currency exchange API in an ongoing customer project. Of course, these services come with a price tag, but it is moderate, and the added value you get for the amount you pay is extremely fair. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Creating, maintaining, updating and properly securing an API is tedious work. So, instead of inventing the wheel, I'd always prefer to pay a small amount for a great job, and focus on my actual assignments and the tasks that count and bring me a financial result) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ipstack?

Ipstack has been a very useful toolful for me since I started using it from last 2 years. Well, i am a security professional and finding the real time location of IP address to filter out the web traffic and network traffic is my day to day job. And here, ipstack plays a vital role in simplifying my work and responsibilities with ease. It helps me in finding the location of the provided ip address, let's me perform more operations related to that ip and also generates report for the same. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's basically finding the live location of the ip addresses. Then it's allowing you to perform more data analysis on the network traffic. It provides extensive information about the provided ip which helps in tracing as well. And in the end...it generates the report for better theoretical understanding.

What do you like best about ipstack?

Having used ipstack on a number of my sites for more than a year and a half, and having tried out almost all available geolocation services, I can confidently say that it is the best. Our requirements included getting an easy, dependable solution to integrate seamlessly into our systems and provide us with accurate data on the users' country, language, and currency.

This was less than an hour of integration, and the results have indeed been impressively accurate, with very few errors unless users were on a VPN. And although we used only the most basic features of their API, it has been more than sufficient to meet our needs.

What's truly special about ipstack is that it's consistent and super-easy to deal with. The rest I've tried were either inaccurate or way too cumbersome. Ipstack does what one would intuitively believe the service should do, and the prices are reasonable; for this reason alone, it's worth a look to anyone searching for a reliable geolocation API. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ipstack?

I haven't find anything wrong. Its fine and I am using the service a long time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It solves problems of regional targeting, fraud, and content localization through the geolocation data it offers. One can identify where users access from; hence, they can give personalized experiences like showing local contents or offers. The service also improves security for the detection of unusual patterns in accessing and will help with market analysis by revealing origins of your traffic. Ipstack means greater user engagement with personalized experiences, better fraud detection, and insightful analytics to inform tactical decisions for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ipstack?

I've been using ipstack for over 6 years on a couple of different websites, and I'm really happy with what we're getting. We needed a simple geolocation service that's easy to integrate into our systems and provides accurate results for user's country, language, and currency.

The integration itself took no more than an hour and the geolocation results are very accurate with almost zero mistakes, unless the visitor is using a VPN or something. We are using only the most basic features of their API but that’s all we require and its working like it should.

Overall, I would definitely recommend ipstack to anyone looking for a reliable geolocation API. It's easy to integrate, gets the job done and the pricing is fair too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ipstack?

ipstack offers 4 subscription plans, each suited according to the number of requests you plan to use. We have chosen the PROFESSIONAL plan, which provides 500,000 requests per month. While this seems like a big number, we noticed that the requests are increasing and not matching our data records of users. We then discovered that crawlers are not excluded, and each time a bot visits a specific page, it counts as a request from ipstack's side. So, my only suggestion for ipstack is to consider adding an option to exclude robots and crawlers from consuming your credit requests. Nevertheless, you can exclude these requests yourself with a few lines of code, preventing them from using your credits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We wanted to make our website more personalized for our users and improve our conversion rate. We needed to know from where the user is coming from (country), what language he speaks and the user local currency. With ipstack, we were able to obtain these exact data and created a more personalized experience for the user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like any API or online service, Ipstack is subject to potential downtime. While the service has a high uptime guarantee and offers technical support, any service disruption can potentially impact businesses or developers relying on the API. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When a user sign-ups with BSC Designer account we want to provide the best experience aligned to the user's location, such as adding required currencies to the user's account and adding correct localized templates of the scorecards. This is perfectly solved by the APILayer's APIs, the ipstack in particular helps with correct detection of location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
