Price2Spy

Pros

easy to use easy to implement in our daily check up, easy to anlalyseas long as you choose manual work, it is very price competitve

Cons

that we decided to go the manual way, so not about the software - more about internal strategy

Pros

Very reliable - works with every site you throw at it!The email updates and options to limit & customize them are outstandingly handy!Not overcomplicated as most other services, but still there hasn't been a thing I needed and did not find :)

Cons

I takes you a few minutes to get the hang of it and the interface but once you do the have your hands untied to an unbelievable extent!

Pros

The customer service at Price to Spy is excellent. You receive a dedicated account manager, and there are back-ups if they are unavailable. They are intelligent, responsive, and easy to work with. They do not change extra fees to set-up, code minor adjustments, or to perform batch loads. They have a data team that can help rematch or search for new URLs, and they are pretty accurate at matching to the correct products even when dealing with changes in packaging/branding. Their web interface and reports is very intuitive.

Cons

Like many price scrapes, there are errors with incorrect prices being scraped due to changes on the website. I often have to check the prices myself and raise the the issues. It usually takes the 1-4 days to resolve depending on how busy they are.

Pros

The software exceeds the competition in several topics. The most relevant is the possibility to incorporate additional fields into the database and the management of multicurrency.
Support equipment also stands out. In our case, they always presented different solutions to our particular needs.

Cons

The software solved 100% of our needs.
We only request an addition to include resellers in Market Places.

they respond to my requests too quickly :)

i think it could be easier to delete products

Pros

Overall, Price2Spy is a powerful and effective tool for our businesses that is looking to stay competitive in today's fast-paced e-commerce landscape.

Cons

Starting up a project may require some time and troubleshooting to ensure everything is set up properly, which is typical for any project. However, once the initial setup is complete, the majority of the processes can be automated.

Pros

the unique features about the products are;
1. Capability to monitor data, and
2. good customer service

Cons

There are no weak points about this software

Pros

- easy in use- uncluttered- support in Dutch language- clear reports- implementation with Access database- outsource a lot of work- any problems are solved quickly

Cons

No cons so far. Very occasionally P2S does not grab certain pages, but that is often restored at the next price check.

Pros

With all the countless reports available in the software, you can perfectly analyze the pricing of your company.

The costumer service is of high level always available and fast in solving any problem.

Cons

There is nothing I would not recommend about this product.

Pros

P2S gives us a quick look into how our products prices are placed in the market and makes it fairly easy for us to adjust them to remain competative.
One of the best things about P2S is not only the software itself but the support staff behind it who are quick to respond and offer solutions to any challanges we might have.

Cons

We'd like to have had the opportunity to monitor competitors shipping costs along with product prices out of the box but again, the support were quick to adjust to our needs and gave us a working solution so that wasn't too bad.

Pros

The ease of use, the features and reporting tools are just great to work with. It sends daily updates via mail, so you can immediately see which competitors changed their prices.

Cons

Using long search strings to create a pricing report based on search results. Best thing to do is to create a pricing report based on the categories.

Pros

The whole idea of it and the reporting opportunities are what I like the most. For us, it's very important that our dealers do not dump the prices but it's hard to keep track without a software like this

Cons

There could be better options about receiving price alerts as for example only certain emails to receive the alerts for a certain currency but I cannot say that the lack of this is something I like the least

Pros

The product is intuitive and easy to use

Cons

No real negatives. Quite happy with it the product

Pros

Great that it holds the history of the competitors prices in a graph and can see when prices changed.

Cons

Would be excellent if we could upload our own spreadsheets into the system to simplify the process.

Pros

You can get a fast overview on your market position.
You can easily change, delete and add URLs to track.
If you exceed the limit of your subcription you get an information and are not fined immediately.
Enquiries and help are very fast and competent.

Cons

That their youtube ad is very long.
The visual appearence of the interface. (colors)

Pros

The tool is very easy to use, the interface of the tool is clear. The reports are clear and understandable. It is possible to see price changes in the graph and the tool also sends regular notifications if the price of a competitor changes. The support of the tool is great and very helpful.

Cons

Everything works as it should. For some websites, we initially had trouble tracking prices, but support helped us resolve everything.

Pros

It's easy to use, quickly understandable and with an integrated chat to the support team

Cons

The manual effort it takes, to retrieve the competitors' urls. I work in an industry, where the competitors urls change at least once a year, and not all at the same time, due to vintage-change of the wines we sell.

Pros

This software saves 10 hours from my usual week workload by automating price checks providing all competitive information needed in real time!

Cons

Nothing so far! Everything is great.

Pros

customer support is great and price is fair

Cons

the tool is sometimes slow and get stuck when there is many data

Pros

It's easy to use and support is very helpful, even proactively reach out to give tips based on your account.

Cons

Style is a bit old-fashioned but that doens't have to be a bad thing.

Pros

I really like the notifications and the ability to get a customised report every day

Cons

The menu system could do with a slight update.

Pros

Very easy to use, every time a competitor is changing the price, you will receive a email alert!Customer service is very helpful

Cons

Interface is not really fast, but I use email alerts more then anything else.

Pros

Easy to use and extract data from. Userfriendly. Great support from the team

Cons

Fairly expensive for the resources needed. No way to track physical retail environments

Pros

We have used Price2Spy for years as our only price comparison tool. It is an incredible value for the service they offer and their customer support is second to none. We have been basing our merchandising decisions off of the data that Price2Spy provides.

Cons

As our company grew we realized that we needed a more robust price comparison tool. Price2Spy wasn't cutting it anymore. There are features of newer tools that should be standard in a price comparison tool and we are realizing that now that we have options. For one, the inability to upload a product list on our own is a big deal. We have to go through customer support (who have been incredibly helpful) in order to upload the csv files.

Pros

There are many benefits of using Price2Spy, below I'll only be able to list some of them:

- As a online retail company for tools and garden equipment, we are facing very competitive market, where we need to make quick repricing decisions
- We're dealing with 1000s of products, and we needed as much automation as possible
- The frequent price checks offered by this tool, along with reports that help us have a good insight of the strategic pricing strategies of our competitors
- The reports are instinctive and easy to generate, and most of all, simple to interpret
- Price change alerts (received via email) have multiple triggering options to choose from which is great
- Automated repricing works like a charm, so we do not have to put manual effort into it
- Price2Spy Support Team is better than any other support team that I've worked with. They're real professionals and solving any problem that we're facing in no time!

Cons

I have noticed a couple of features that could be improved. My idea have been considered, and in the end implemented, but are taking a bit long to be implemented.

Pros

This platform has the facility that it is easily combined and adjusted to other platforms according to their updates. Through email notifications, it issues alerts regarding internal and external market data, competition, prices, product profitability and, based on this, the company and the user carry out studies, analyses, and comparisons in real-time, which allows them to carry out and apply the appropriate marketing strategies and make the right decisions in order to place the product in the highest standards of positioning and scalability within the network. These notifications and alerts are received either by mobile or PC.

Cons

The software does not perform automation and comparison of price data that allows a 100% complete match of the products that are available, therefore it is done manually and automatically.

Pros

The software is well developed from a market perspective. All functions are there. But most importantly, Price2Spy's support is very fast and knowledgeable. The company has an agile way of dealing with any questions or errors in a fast way

Cons

If one could wish for anything, it would be that P2S would be better to sniff out identical products from competitors without us having to manually enter their urls

Pros

The cost is so competitive for what you get in comparison to other price comparison sites.
The functionality and features.
Linking to Woocommerce and others.

Cons

The only thing I would say is that the interface could be modernised a bit to use a more up to date look. But to be honest it does not affect the functionality so it's not really important anyway.

Pros

The support is always available and solves problems very quickly and efficiently. Manual adjustments to your own infrastructure. Very good overview of all prices and competitors in the Price Matrix Report. Report contains a link to the URL to quickly check products. Very fair prices for changes, adjustments and data maintenance. 1 account can be used by multiple users. Different possibilities for manual and automatic matching of products. Good import and export functions. Finds prices even on complicated websites.

Cons

The very nice and helpful people of P2S are unfortunately very far away ...

Pros

Great tool for monitoring prices on a large scale. The tool has great value for money. We are using Price2Spy on a daily basis for some time now, it helps us stay competitive in the market.

Cons

There is not much to dislike. The setup is a bit harder, but their support helped us instantly!

Pros

Pros
- Automatically checks pricing as regular as you need it
- Repricing reports very easy to use
- Links to Magento store for fully integrated solution
- Price2Spy staff go well above and beyond to help
- Timeline view is invaluable to see which store dropped a price first

Cons

There are a few features that would make it better (fully automated repricing, more filtering of large product sets) but the team are implementing new features regularly.

Pros

We spent a lot of time researching and testing pricing software.

Price2Spy answered all of our needs and gave us even more. We have a number of automated reports which are sent around to the team on a daily basis. At the touch of a button we can look back at historic pricing and be notified of any pricing which may be of concern.

It is an incredibly easy piece of software to navigate and update. They also benefit for a very attentive support team who are always on hand to answer questions of help explain things.

Cons

I struggle to understand how to use some of the reports. However, I have other members of my team who have really got to grips with the software and all of the different reporting options.

Pros

The support is fantastic and almost instantaneous. The software works exactly as advertised! Been able to monitor prices with price2spy is changing the way our conpany does business

Pros

Easy to use. good visualization. easy data dumping.

Cons

in general less intelligence. for example,
1. if competitors' price has change over certain percentage, it should be an alarm risen. Also whether that price will enter into its historical prices should be subjected to approve.
2. Doesn't recognize if the match is correct. Sometimes we made a mistake when searching prices and we are very keen if there is a 3rd party who can do the examination. For example, price variation among its peers.
3. Wish to have more feature to tell us how market has moved. For example, allowing drill down feature on the dashboard. Image user can click on a chart and it goes down to a next level and next and next.. and so on. This will allow users to explore and navigate by themselves which usually brings more insights and sparks to them.

Pros

Price2spy enable Us to keep monitored Our main competitors with little effort and have become ain important part of Our pricing strategy. I definitely like the product.

Cons

There is nothing actually that We dislike. We would like to see some improvements to make a better User Experience on the interface but overall it is already very good

Pros

Best customer support!! Any question/comment/problem is tackled in usually less than 24 hours, and if not, they are always updating on the status. They are willing to make adjustment as much as possible for the client. The scraping services is of the highest quality, and their website is very functional and easy to use.

Cons

The built-in reports are pretty hard to understand sometimes, one really need to delve deep and study, and we don't always have the time. However, I can just ask their CS for assistance, and they will help me with it.

Pros

Well, product does what it promise and really good way too. It filled all my needs what I was looking for.
But I was most impressed about customer service. I must say it's best I ever got!
Also integration is really nice.

Cons

Well.. It's not any problem but sometimes system does not find correct price from competitors site.
But team handle these things in no time and it's fixed quickly.
If I need to say something "bad" it would be bit old looking interface. Not so modern and fresh but I think it's not so relevant.

Pros

The support is great and fast. The tool flexibility is also great. You can ask for some small customizations and you will get it.

Cons

The interface is a bit slow. I believe that a more responsive UI would improve the user repetitive tasks performance.

Pros

My team is very happy with this application, we manage to optimize the price updates up to 30-40% faster. Is easy to use, a lot of alerts and reports depending on your needs, history of a product price, easy to add products and if I want to add a new competitor the support team is super-fast mapping their page.

We decide to use price2spy after we tested almost all the other platforms in the market and price2spy offers all the features need it at a very competitive price.

Cons

no cons so far, I can't say that I have something I don't like about this product.

Pros

Good, clear pricing structure. Very fast implementation and support from the team. Provides the data we need refreshed daily. Useful automated reports feature.

Cons

Doesn't have all the features of some of the more expensive solutions. Only a limited range of visualizations available.

Pros

Possibility to report issues directly on the website.

Cons

For some complicated website parameters need to be set up at additional costs.

Pros

Easy to setup monitoring on my Amazon products

Cons

They have the best price I could find for monitoring, but the cost is still significant

Pros

- target pricing violations has been incredibly helpful for us
- notifications when items have gone out of stock on monitored websites
- incredible, helpful, and friendly customer service!!!

Cons

- I don't think they take screenshots of the pages when someone is violating, would like more proof other than the emails of violations occurring
- Not a con, but would be interesting to see some kind of review monitoring as well

Pros

This has changed our online strategies allowing us to react instantaneously to the market. It has increased our overall sales and profit margins. Great piece of software. We work in Ex Vat, the support team are fantastic, quick and efficient, they changed all of our URLs into Ex Vat for us. Simply Brilliant.

Cons

Not found anything that impedes us in what we want to get out of the software

Pros

So many reportings available making sure we can identify & read into competitors pricing strategy

Cons

The set-up has been a real struggle on our side as we couldn't use the automatch so we have to copy/paste 1 by 1 all the links we want to monitor and getting the feed in the correct format hasn't been easier

Pros

It gives you the most accurate, up to date information about your products and pricing that are needed to control a MAP policy pricing structure.

Cons

There are not too many bad things to say about Price2Spy. Its reliable and accurate.
