The scrapes helped identify leads for targeted outreach, usually the research process takes the longest, but Octoparse made it fast and easy. I actually got more than I was looking for > > **Cons**: Downloading the octoparse client onto my own device for the trial period before upgrading made me hesitant, only because I had never heard of octoparse, but I never experienced any issues. > > Love Octoparse for web scraping and data extraction, really easy tool to use and actually very inexpensive. The UI is easy to navigate and if you run into issues the CS team can look into the issue and provide you with fixes (they told me what code to add and where to fix an issue I was having). You don't even need any developer or coding experience. ----- ### "Excellent software for web data extraction" — 5.0/5 > **Juan Carlos** | *26 August 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been using Octoparse for almost 5 years now and I can confidently say that this is the best program for extracting data from the web without writing a single line of code. Plus, it has an intuitive platform and excellent technical support. > > **Cons**: Despite having a very intuitive interface, it requires several hours of trial and error before you can fully master it. There are also opportunities for improvement in the translation of the interface into Spanish. > > We use Octoparse for academic and research purposes, and in this regard the program has met all expectations. Likewise, many of my students say that the program is easy to use and have adopted it as a key tool in their work as a key tool to increase their productivity. ----- ### "Company is in China - Can't Get Good Support" — 3.0/5 > **Jeremy** | *10 December 2018* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Pretty good set of features. That's all I can say about it. > > **Cons**: Company is in China. If you need support you can't get it during the business day in the US. So support is you send one email on monday, they email you overnight, you email them tuesday, it is sooooo slow to make any progress on an issue. > > Just go with another service that has support hours during the business day. ----- ### "Octoparse Data Extraction works\!" — 5.0/5 > **Mark** | *9 July 2024* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease to test, support is second to none. and I do say that with a background running data services and support with 200 engineers and 150 support staff. > > **Cons**: none that I have run into. the product continues to evolve which is perfect for our needs on a changing basis daily. > > It has been 5 star. The staff helps and solves issues every time we need them. and we get expert advise when designing our datasets. Best extractor for the money hands down\!\! ----- ### "Highly recommend Octoparse as scraping tool for individuals and teams" — 5.0/5 > **Etiese** | *20 August 2024* | Information Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Its ability to handle highly complex tasks compared to other tools in the market. The fast response from their support, ease of use, and most importantly, its try-except setup for everything ensures one error does not terminate the whole scraping. > > **Cons**: I wish there were an option to clear data in Scraper before starting a new extraction on scheduled extraction. It would be very useful in parent-child configuration. > > Octoparse is very efficient and can handle very complex web scraping issues. I think it was made with high-end data scraping solutions in mind. It handles screen scraping, sites with Javascript, Ajax, scrolling, items within Iframe, etc., and 'get' requests API scraping. I have been using it since 2019, and it is highly recommended. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/24963/octoparse?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/24963/octoparse) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
