Visualping Reviews & Product Details

I really can't recommend VP enough. I love that I can set sensitivity levels and specific areas of a webpage – sometimes a page changes often but what I really want is one specific area. This makes me feel like a superhero being able to track super niche changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes jobs become inactive and I don't know why – not a huge deal to go and reset the job though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that the tool makes it super easy to spy on competitors, both visually and text-only.

Since my initial review I've also started using it to monitor my own sites and it's been truly amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Configuration takes some time, and onboarding new users to use is also a bit time-consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing is the powerful difference detection, it can spot changes in text or appearance of the targeted website. You don't have to get into any coding to identify what specific thing to monitor, it can just watch the whole page for text changes, or if you're doing visual monitoring, you can drag a box to select an area of interest.

The AI-generated summary of changes that they recently added to the email notifications is also very handy so you can instantly get a sense of whether there was a meaningful change or just a small tweak to the site that can be disregarded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface to set up monitoring jobs is just a little bit unclear sometimes what each function does, and it can be slow when it initially scans/loads a page. Also it is not smart enough to disregard a visual change when it is caused simply by the site adding a banner at the top that pushes the other content down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Free plan with various options to monitor changes to a web page at a graphic, text or other content level, being able to choose review frequency. Ideal for monitoring different product price pages, job postings or other news or even to detect errors when a page does not load correctly. You will receive email notification when changes are detected.

Additionally, you have payment plans with more options/functionalities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that you have to login every few weeks to avoid deactivating the monitoring alerts that you have active. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Visualping is its simplicity and effectiveness in monitoring website changes. The tool is incredibly user-friendly, allowing me to set up monitoring for any webpage with just a few clicks. It provides real-time alerts whenever a change is detected, which is invaluable for staying updated on critical information without constantly checking the site manually. Additionally, the ability to customize the frequency of monitoring and tailor notifications to my specific preferences makes it even more versatile. Whether I need instant alerts or more periodic updates, Visualping adapts to my needs, ensuring that I’m always in the loop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about Visualping is that it can be difficult and sometimes impossible to use for websites that require multiple steps. For instance, if a site requires several clicks, text entries, or two-factor authentication (2FA), Visualping struggles to handle these complexities. This limitation makes it less effective for monitoring changes on more secure or interactive websites, which can be frustrating when trying to track specific information.

I used to have to manually remember to visit websites to get the latest updates. For example, new swimming lesson times for my kids or the latest on the Canada Post strikes that could affect my business. But Visualping does this automatically for me. Also, I like the scheduling feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish Visualping had some sort of wiki where I could look up questions and answers from other users about how to get the most out of the system. There is limited documentation. Their customer support is only via email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visualping is a very useful tool which I can set up once and it will automatically notify me of website changes which is great for price tracking. The new AI summary is very helpful and accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When a website changes, sometimes you have to update the job but it's quick and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visualping provides reliable, timely notifications for monitoring website changes with an intuitive user interface serving a variety of ways to capture and track. The experience of using this service was smooth and seamless with no appreciable learning curve and no deficiencies in execution. As soon as a change was detected, a notification from Visualping was in my inbox. I highly recommend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In my experience, Visualping works exactly as expected. In order to increase confidence, the service could send an email periodically to confirm that no changes have been detected on the website, as only positive, but not negative, confirmation is provided, although some users might find this annoying so it should be optional. I can only assume that all changes are detected having not seen an instance where a change was not detected or detected and not consequently reported. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate how easy it is to set up a monitor that checks frequently and only alerts me when there are changes. This feature has saved me a lot of time since I no longer have to manually check for updates. As a result, I've saved significantly on both holidays and airfares Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I occasionally receive false alerts when a website fails to load. While this isn't an issue with Visualping itself, it would be beneficial to have a more effective way to filter these alerts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Many companies simply post their jobs on their own websites, with no submission to job websites.

So the only real way to monitor for these oppurtunities is with a website monitor.

Visualoing gets the jobs done - with enough settings to limit false positives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It takes a while to get the settings right for each particular website - seems there are lots of ways websites can change.

But Visualping seems to be the best in terms of features that allow you to start filtering out those false positives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
