Crawlbase.com Reviews 85

Okay, I'm impressed. I needed a way to scrape product availability data from five retail sites daily. This worked very well with JavaScript-heavy pages, auto-retried failed requests for me and allowed me to schedule crawls like clockwork. And no surcharge for mobile or residential IPs, which is a huge bonus. I personally really LOVED the webhook integration. The moment the crawl was finished, I had a clean data dump sent to my endpoint. That alone saved me hours. Hell, support even followed up to make sure I didn't have issues. That's rare. I still hang on to my little custom scripts for a couple of edge cases, but this displaced 90% of what I was running.

I use it for scrapping product data from multiple e-commerce sites. What do I like most? It doesn't choke on JavaScript- laden pages. Proxy rotation is perfect, also. I've had fewer blocks, and my data overall is way better in quality. Plus, the support is actually responsive in there, which was a shock to me. This was saving me hours a week. So far, I'm quite happy with the consistency and running of everything.

Experimented with a few before this one, but this baby is easier to use. I merely install the job and it is successfully running. The results are clean, and I barely had to tweak the finished product.

I have built and maintained scrapers for years. Now, it's usually a pain in the butt - blocked IPs CAPTCHA problems, unstable proxies, and bad formatting. This time? Setup took under 15 minutes. I used it to scrape real-time flight costs. Everything worked without the slightest hiccup, even when we were using it during prime hours. The smart proxy pool handled IP rotation and gecolocation for me. Not one request was babysit. And the docs actually worked. I could customize the crawl job to my liking without feeling overwhelmed. It's not common to come across a tool that just... works. I'm already shifting more work.

I tried this on a big directory with many nested links. All slid effortlessly, and I never had to manually throttle. Great job with the redirects, avoiding the duplicates, and all nerd things Definitely a keeper.

Tested it out on a product search site. Quick, no blocks, and clean JSON out. All in all, super smooth experience.

Wow. I honestly expected to spend days fiddling around, but it worked almost right away. I'm scraping property listings across three regions daily. The proxy network passed geo-targeting like breeze! No duplicate data, no missing fields, no drama. Even pages that were especially heavy on JavaScript didn't break anything, which was a first for me. The API is powerful, but not so much that you get lost. You can start with just the basics and do some great work. And support? Actually helpful. Genuine answers, not already ported two other scraping projects over. It's unusual to see a tool that's so stable and consistent.

The learning curve proved unusually brief. I dragged over thousands of product reviews from different sources, and it all came over neat and clean.

Alright!! So I have tried lots of scrapes. And either they got me blocked now. Or I had to continually fix them. This one! Way smoother and so I used it to scrape metadata and full content for news articles over a variety of high traffic domains! Did not run into a single rate limit issue! The best part, The automatic retries and intelligent proxy rotation. Someone else was dealing with all that in the background! And it was well documented, the API - So I was not finish around in the dark. I loved the ability to schedule recurring jobs. It has made my workflow easier. And I am no longer babysitting scripts. Now, I can concentrate on the analysis itself!

The setup takes under 10 minutes. Clean, structured data free of any obstruction. Honest to God, I did not think that would work this quickly.

We were manually scraping from job boards, and we wasted so much time. Now we have a crawler that we can run with scheduled jobs everyday, to pull the listings and automatically clean the data. The proxy rotation ensures we don't face an IP block, in particular, not on sites that redesign periodically. And being able to scrape structured data without having to develop our own parsing tools? That's been huge. But what really impressed us was the flexibility - you can scrape dynamic content too. We've grown our data collection without the need for additional dev time. It's now an indispensable part of our toolset, and we're using it a lot more than we initially thought we would. Huge time-saver.

Tried on 3 heavy eCommerce sites with lots of dynamic content. No blocks, no strange formatting bugs. The response times were fast, and the data was clean and well-structured. I didn't even have to mess around with headers or user agents much at all. Very cool.

One of the key use cases where I leveraged Crawlbase was to collect product pricing and availability data from various e-commerce platforms.

Date of experience: June 15, 2025

The setup was pretty simple, and the documentation was very helpful. I particularly love the types of proxies that they provide as well, because it lets me scrape as reliably as I do even on trickier sites. The platform feels powerful but does not require a ton of technical know-how to get going. And their support was responsive when I had a question. On the whole, a decent tool for extracting data that makes the process a lot less frustrating.

Scrape faster and more reliably than with traditional tools. Setup was easy, proxies were excellent, and the results were clean.

Ok, I don't have time to babysit scraping jobs, so their background crawler is awesome. It's processing thousands of URLs as I work on other things. The proxy network helps keep things sailing' smooth too.

I was looking for such a tool that could scrape hundreds of thousands of pages without dying or getting banned every few seconds. That's exactly what this platform does. The residential mobile, and data center proxy blend kept my IPs rotating as traffic looked organic, so I never triggered limits or blacklists. I also appreciate how the API handles CAPTHA challenges on its own, so I didn't have to implement complex workarounds myself. As an asynchronous crawler, everything is running in the background, so I do not have to spend hours waiting for the scraping to be done and continue working on my analysis. And the pricing tiers scale with volume, so it fits perfectly with my business.

Wow that was an excellent proxy rotation. I got clean data quickly without annoying blocks and CAPTCHAs.

Date of experience: June 04, 2025

I've experimented with a few scraping tools, but I particularly liked this one because it works on the most complicated sites. The rotating proxies are good, and the API does CAPTCHA solving itself, so I did not have to spend precious time doing the scraping manually. The latter is due to their asynchronous crawling of their service, which allows me to run a lot of cards virtually at once without loading my computer. Got the docs with a little difficulty, but once I figured out the flow, it was smooth sailing. Honestly, this has saved me weeks on a project I used recently, and the pricing seems reasonable for what they provide.

I wanted a tool for extracting products form some investments sites! And they have anti bot measures! This platform did it so much better than the others I tired..! With the residential and mobile proxies- the number of blocks was way better. And the Captcha bypass was really impressive! I also liked that I was able to save the data right out of the box with their cloud storage API. Which meant I did not have any extra setup to do. The crawlers async queue is a nice one. It just keeps going on in the back ground and allows me to deal with other stuff and frankly for the price, I did not expect this kind of stability and scale!
