"Consistent service and great sales team!"
4/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

Dev experience and the people of ScrapingBee. Rytas and his team are magicians! My experience with them was very well received and they manage to pull me back after I thought I made up my mind with a competitor. I'm sure Rytas closed bigger clients, but he was focused on what I need and my data issues. While running a small sample size test, I ran into a bug during after hours. I brought it up with Rytas. Him and his team was able to get it resolve very quickly! This is what convinced me that ScrapingBee is the correct partner to solve my data scraping needs. They are willing to work with you to get you what you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScrapingBee?

Dashboard is a bit clunky. Pricing/credits can be a bit overwhelming, unless you read the docs and manage it well. Docs are a bit hard to read. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable Scraping with Stellar Support"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

I like using ScrapingBee for its reliability, which is super important for us as a small product service. Their proxies are super reliable and help me run scraping without getting blocked regularly. The customer support is smooth, easy to understand, and they have a lot of empathy, solving problems brilliantly. Most times, support is a major issue with other tech platforms, but not with them. The features are well laid out for each plan, and the documentation makes it easy for my tech team to understand processes and updates better. Overall, the reliability of their service is rock solid, and we've definitely benefited from their support as we have scaled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScrapingBee?

Nothing really. It's great overall. You know, obviously, if they can make the credits a little cheaper, that's better. JK ;-) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable Web Scraping with Minimal Downtime"
5/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

I like that ScrapingBee is my main, daily driver for scraping tasks, particularly for a fleet of 300 scrapers. It's reliable and manages to get all the fields I need, especially when I'm working with Amazon. It often gets pricing data more accurately than some of its competitors. I trust ScrapingBee because it has minimal downtime, if any, and the costs are pretty reasonable. The service just works, and that's what I appreciate the most. It's easy to use, and I haven't experienced any downtime. The setup was straightforward with just a few API keys and curls, making it hassle-free. Additionally, I find the auto-renewing feature really nice, and the support is good and always there when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScrapingBee?

Sometimes, using the stealth proxy levels can get a bit expensive, and you can burn through credits really fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Support that actually solved the problem and a tool that does what it says"
5/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

Honest support. Not performative, not upsold — honest. When my initial approach hit a wall, their team told me clearly what wasn't working, gave me a refund without me asking for one, and sent a follow-up after I found my own solution with an even better technical path I hadn't considered. Most support interactions in SaaS feel like they're trying to close the ticket. This one felt like they wanted my project to succeed.

The product itself is strong. Premium Proxy with header forwarding and JavaScript rendering handled GraphQL scraping against a well-defended e-commerce platform reliably, with predictable per-call credit costs. My daily scheduled scrapes run cleanly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScrapingBee?

Credit estimation for complex scenarios isn't as transparent as it could be. If you're running multi-step scenarios with various proxy tiers and rendering configurations, it takes some manual math to predict monthly usage accurately. A pre-run cost estimator would help planning, especially for teams evaluating scaling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid Performance and Outstanding Customer Support"
5/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

I like that ScrapingBee's platform works exactly as expected and solves our problem of creating personalized videos on a larger scale. I'm really happy with it. What really stands out to me is their support, which is professional, clear, and provides helpful answers. That level of customer care matters, especially in today's AI-driven space where tools are everywhere, but companies that truly take care of their customers are rare. It's something I value deeply, and it's how we run our own business as well. ScrapingBee is a solid tool backed by a team that genuinely cares. I just love their customer service; they are very responsive and fair. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScrapingBee?

I would like to see the snapshot that pairs with the video to be maybe longer. For what we use it for, it works fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Huge Builder Selection, Great Pricing, and Easy Setup with ScrapingBee"
5/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

The large choice of already implemented builders that allow us to retrieve data from almost every source. Pricing is really great and there are no lock outs from services.

Our Dev Team implemented Scraping Bee easily and within 2 days to get everything done. We use it daily within our internal monitoring Tool that we use for multiple clients of ours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScrapingBee?

There is really nothing that comes to mind that would make us dislike ScrapingBee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Complete API Docs, Extensive Proxy Countries and Reliable Request Fulfillment"
5/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

It has a complete API document that meets all the needs of the developer. Also, the countries in the proxy list are very complete, and it has a good request fulfillment rate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScrapingBee?

For about 500,000 requests per month, one million requests must be purchased, and the remaining balance will be lost at the end of the month. Of course, there may be a special subscription support for such conditions, but I have not spoken yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ScrapingBee is the Best Web Scraping API."
5/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

ScrapingBee is probably the most convenient and useful web scraping API I have ever used. Their pricing levels are very affordable. Most importantly, they allow 200 concurrent requests, which has been essential for our company in performing tasks quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScrapingBee?

Their Youtube API used to have an option for transcriptions, but it's not there anymore. It's not really their fault because Youtube changed their website. But it was inconvenient to have to work around it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Captcha Success Rate Won Me Over"
5/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

After switching from ScrapingAnt to ScrapingBee, the first thing I noticed was the incredibly high success rate on captcha-protected pages. Integration was painless too. Their SDK is clean and well-documented, so I had my first requests running in minutes. Pricing is about the same as everywhere else, but what makes ScrapingBee stand out at that price is the quality. The support team is so upbeat and responsive it's almost annoying. I've never seen so many emojis in a support chat, but hey, they actually solve things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScrapingBee?

There's no way to set the country for YouTube search results scraping, but I don't need that anymore, and I've had no other issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Setup, Flawless Web Scraping"
5/5
What do you like best about ScrapingBee?

I found ScrapingBee through development research with Cursor, and it turned out to be solid. They did a really good job with their website and documentation. The user experience is very clean and comfortable, making it easy for both me and Cursor to understand the capabilities and pricing. What I liked most was how its technology could be used to overcome hurdles in our project involving tricky website designs. ScrapingBee worked smoothly in tough situations where other vendors didn't. The initial setup was super easy, just popping in my API key and letting Cursor figure out the rest. It was amazing how well it handled our use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
