Scrapfly

Pros: ease of use, clarity of pricing and features included, overall UI and UX, very convenient, also, most competitive price out there!

Cons: honestly at the moment I haven't found anything I didn't like, I have nothing to complain about at the moment

Pros: Scrapfly's ability to avoid detection from heavily protected websites is incredible. Failures are easy to spot with a combination of helpful screenshots and logs. Did I mention they're able to trigger/store downloads? This is super useful for when you're automating around public export data. Their LLM integrations and documentation is excellent as well which makes it that much easier to build with.

Cons: The only thing I dislike about Scrapfly is that there aren't as many options when you're scraping so you'll find yourself dropping to raw javascript to trigger actions which can be highly problematic in certain sites. More tooling around what you can do with scraping would be great. I would also like lower priced tiers or more pay-as-you-go pricing to unlock the full usage.

Pros: I like the ease of use, seamless integration with custom applications, effectiveness as a scrapper and various features to fine tune my implementation. Plus relatively cost effective.

Cons: It can be a little unclear as to why I'm using as many tokens/credits. I wish I can have a better understanding of per call what is getting me from x to y depending on what implementation. Just per call feedback.

Pros: How easy it was to set up. It is also rather cheap considering how much you can do with the base plan.

Cons: The free plan was great for testing out. But it was rather limited and I quickly had to move to the paid plan when still testing.

Pros: Very easy to use, great documentation, transparent pricing and good dashboard. When the scraper broke for a particular site (enhanced anti-bot technology), Scrapfly support was responsive and fixed the issue quickly.

Cons: Not perfect in terms of anti-bot capabilities, but this is a challenging space and I think Scrapfly overall does an excellent job.

Pros: simple solution! just get an api key and launch it! you can scrape whatever you want with really good comparable price.

Cons: nothing! maybe their authentication process could be faster and somehow automated using many available solutions or 3rd party companies.

Pros: The Anti-Bot Detection bypass is easily the standout feature. Scrapfly handles Cloudflare, Akamai, and Datadome challenges more reliably than almost any other SDK I’ve used. The ASP (Anti-Scraping Protection) system saves dozens of hours that would otherwise be spent on custom header rotation and fingerprinting. Additionally, having a built-in headless browser (rendering JS) via a simple API parameter makes the transition from simple GET requests to complex dynamic scraping seamless.

Cons: The pricing structure for API credits can be a bit steep if you are doing massive, high-volume crawls that require full JavaScript rendering, as those "cost" significantly more credits per request. Also, while the documentation is generally excellent, the Python SDK could benefit from more niche examples regarding complex post-request scenarios or specific session persistence edge cases.

Pros: I most like the Anti Scraping Protection (ASP) API for accessing web pages that block regular bots. This saves me time not needing to keep on top of how the latest bot protection works.

Cons: The price for Anti Scraping Protection (ASP) - unfortunately it's expensive at scale so only practical for targeted use cases.

Pros: What I liked most about Scrapfly is that it reduces a lot of the operational pain that normally comes with web scraping. Instead of spending time managing proxies, retries, and anti-bot workarounds, we can focus more on the data itself. The API is well designed, the documentation is clear, and the platform feels dependable for real-world data extraction tasks.

Cons: The main downside is pricing at scale. If your workload grows quickly or you run a large number of requests, the cost can become noticeable. There is also a learning curve if you want to fully optimize request settings and use advanced features efficiently, so it may take some time before a new user gets the most value from the platform.

Pros: Reliable data extraction API that handles anti-bot protections well. Easy to integrate — just an API key and a URL. Their proxy rotation and browser rendering save a ton of time compared to building your own scraping infrastructure. Good documentation.

Cons: The dashboard UI could be more intuitive for monitoring usage and debugging failed requests. Was hard to enter my debit card at first, then figured out how to resolve the form load bug.

Pros: The Anti-Bot Selection engine is the only consistent solution for the 2026-era "Turnstile Wall." While standard residential proxies and TLS impersonation libraries are increasingly hit-or-miss on site, Scrapfly’s ASP handles the browser fingerprinting and managed challenges out of the box. It effectively turned a high-maintenance "cat and mouse" game into a deterministic API call.

Cons: I burned through the trial credits rapidly, so had to take the leap of faith and sign up without really being able to test it out.

Pros: The scalability and reliability are top-notch. I used Scrapfly to scrape over 170k items from eBay Australia, and once the configuration was set, the process was incredibly smooth. The API handles the heavy lifting of proxy rotation and headless browsing very well, allowing me to focus on the data rather than the infrastructure.

Cons: The pricing transparency regarding specialized features could be clearer. I initially struggled with the Anti-Bot ASP (Anti-Scraping Protection) setting. I found that enabling it wasn't necessary for my specific use case, but it costs 25x more in terms of API credits. It took some expensive trial and error to realize that standard settings worked just fine for my target site.

Pros: Scrapfly's ASP (Anti-Scraping Protection) bypass genuinely works once configured correctly. The residential proxy pool and session support made a significant difference when dealing with aggressive bot protection systems like DataDome. The Python SDK is clean and well-structured, and resilient_scrape() with automatic retries is a standout feature that kept long-running jobs alive through intermittent failures.

Cons: The biggest frustration is the ERR::ASP::SHIELD_PROTECTION_FAILED error. When it happens, the error message just says "retry in a few seconds" and links to a documentation page — but neither tells you whether the issue is with your configuration or whether Scrapfly's bypass engine is temporarily struggling with that site. In our experience, the error resolved on its own without any changes on our end, which suggests it was a Scrapfly-side issue — but we had no way of knowing that from the error message alone. Clearer error messages that distinguish between user config problems and platform-level bypass failures would save a lot of debugging time.

Pros: It's complete. I tried it with the free credits, maxed out quickly, realised it would take me ages to do better than Scrapfly by my own, and decided to pay for their monthly plan and everything works like a charm so far.

Cons: I don't know, so far I have not really noticed anything I don't like or anything that was missing for me, but I guess I'm a entry level user, so we'll see in the future.

Pros: Scrapfly is a super mature and feature-rich web scraping solution for our agents that I enjoy a lot. It's efficient, has a ton of scraping possibilities and excellent dashboards to track spend. It looks like they have a number of other interesting neighboring products as well that I plan to explore.

Cons: Personally it would be great if the concurrency limits for the discovery plan we are bit higher. Also the jump from discovery plan to pro plan is a bit steep.

Pros: Worked first time, and an easy migration path from similar products. I specifically liked the option to execute Javascript on the target page.

Cons: Perhaps if the Javascript could be sent via POST rather than GET it could alleviate the issue of the maximum length of a Url in HTTP.

Pros: The ease of use stood out immediately. Scrapfly made it simple to start scraping data without complicated setup, and the documentation and tools were clear.

Cons: As of today, I haven’t found anything I dislike about Scrapfly. The platform works as expected, the features perform reliably, and the overall experience has been smooth so far.

Pros: Scrapfly works really well. I enjoy the UI to keep an overview of my scraping and it saved me many hours of work.

Cons: Generally I did not find many errors with scrapfly. Maybe the overview articles did not quite clearly set out the actual limits of the functionality.

Pros: That i can scrap data from websites that another scraper cant reach! Its awesome tool for awesome price

Cons: Everything is great so far so I can’t add any bad word so far . Scrapfly is reliable and works great

Pros: Easy setup, extensive options, good speed and excellent results. We were up and running in minutes and our results were vastly better.

Cons: Not really anything much. The UI is a little bit dated but is fully functional and it's not really something we'll be spending a lot of time using. No issues.

Pros: Scrapfly handled JavaScript-rendered pages and anti-bot protections on Polish retail sites that were otherwise impossible to scrape reliably. The asp=True flag alone saved enormous amounts of time vs. managing rotating proxies manually. The Python SDK is clean, the request/response model is straightforward, and the dashboard showing credit usage per request helped track costs by site. Screenshot capture for debugging failed scrapes was genuinely useful.

Cons: Credit pricing is opaque — ASP mode costs 10-25x a basic request, so a scraping job that looks cheap can burn through credits fast. The documentation for fine-tuning ASP vs. non-ASP decisions by site is thin, so there's trial and error involved. Error messages when scrapes fail mid-session could be more descriptive (distinguishing bot detection vs. network timeout vs. site structure change). Free tier is very limited for serious testing.

Pros: Easy integration, developer friendly, simple onboarding, value credits isn't too bad, good packages.

Cons: UI is not mobile friendly, would like usage reports if possible, also debugging tools would be great.
