### "Powerful and flexible web scraping platform with a learning curve"

April 22, 2026

5.0

Overall, my experience has been positive. Apify is a powerful platform for web scraping and automation, especially for data-driven projects. It saves development time and provides scalable infrastructure, though it requires some learning at the beginning.

Pros

I liked the wide range of ready-made scrapers (Actors) and how easy it is to automate data collection without needing to build everything from scratch. The platform is flexible and works well for web scraping and automation workflows.

Cons

Some advanced use cases require time to understand, especially for beginners. Pricing can also become high depending on usage and compute needs.

### "scrape king"

October 4, 2025

5.0

I have been building tools that actually solve needs of clients. They call me for that. Bascially you could build a business around Apify services.

Pros

versatility is the best, because one can scrape many other plattforms with apify. Tiktok, Instagra, Linkedin

Cons

I would like to see pay as you go since i have many subscriptions running. Some limitations on free plan are really annoying and i would like to test them too before subscribing.

February 24, 2025

5.0

Easy to use. Just need some basic knowledge in APIs.

Pros

Gamechanger for my business. Incredible value.

Cons

There is nothing really to dislike. The developers could be advised to give examples how to use there builds. Would be more user-friendly.

December 19, 2024

5.0

I love it. wish i knew about it sooner. It is so friendly to a no-code user like myself.

Pros

unparalleled time saver. Highly recommend to sales pros.

Cons

I personally struggle with integration with make.com but I'm a novice and it seems to be related to a timeout issue on make.com's end

July 14, 2025

5.0

Pros

Great tool for literally anything you want to scrape. Lots of actor to choose from (mostly I use it for apollo)

Cons

Monthly subscription (no pay 2 go or credits only that you can buy). Other than that all is good with apify

### "Cost Efficient solution for lead gen"

November 19, 2025

5.0

Worked as expected, the hard part was syncing with N8N and using the data but thats not apify's features

Pros

Cost efficient, very flexible and instant integration with no code automation tools. Tons of actors and services to choose from

Cons

Too technical, you need to have API, JSON, dev experience... not a lot but it is needed. A non technical person would use less than 50% of its features

### "Apify - Cost Efficient & Versatile Scraping Platform"

June 9, 2025

5.0

Overall, it's a very good scraping platform because it's very cost-efficient and easy to use and very versatile

Pros

The versatility of their scrapers. Many different usecases for all kinds of social media platforms and other platforms.

Cons

That some of their scarpers aren't checked and maintained properly, which is often annoying when you add a scraper to your profile and then it doesn't work.

### "Apify is a goldmine"

July 30, 2025

5.0

Really great, as I've mentioned in the first answer, it saves me a lot of time when it comes to doing research about prospects and leads.

Pros

The ability to get high-quality results for really affordable prices. And it saves hours of manual work and research.

Cons

Nothing as for now.

### "AppUnits AI - Review"

January 26, 2026

5.0

it has been used in the AI automation. We can deliver faster and easier using Apify, so it was good experience so far!

Pros

\- ready-to use templates or services - faster delivery - the ability to publish SaaS or automation Actors (services)

Cons

\- the pricing docs / structure - for developers: dynamic select options rather than static options in the json file - for UX: there are inputs that depend on another input value and thus based on the input value we shall show only the relevant inputs, for example an input 1 is a select input that has 2 options (option 1 and option 2), based on it's value I shall show input 2 and input 5 if I select option 1, and I shall show input 3 and input 4 if I select option 2, what happens is that we display all the inputs (input 1, input 2, input 3, input 4, input 5)

### "Multiple sources to exctract data from"

June 10, 2025

5.0

My experience has been positive so far. The errors I found are corrected when actors are maintained by apify.

Pros

The variety of actors allow me to extract data from multiple sources. The integration is easier in this way.

Cons

Some actors, especially those not maintained by apify, present some problems. And some of them could have better response times.

### "freelancer"

September 27, 2025

5.0

i am very satisfied with apify. specially that they give 5$ for testing so that i can test any actor.

Pros

I am a freelancer. I have built a TON of programs for clients and it relies heavily on APIFY actor. i even am thinking of making my own actor literally. I mostly use it in automated stuff that contains IP and bot detection which makes it 100% safe for me to do whatever scraping process i want.

Cons

when an actor needs cookies. i feel scared sometimes because i might get blocked on the platform i want to scrape for example.

### "Web Scraping Made Easy"

September 4, 2025

4.0

I enjoyed using Apify so much that I talk about it almost everywhere I go. Web scraping has never been this easy. I used to worry about API keys and all, but their agents have already been trained to handle such tasks. The platform is cost effective especially when using agents maintained by Apify.

Pros

I like that anyone can use it. I do not need to be a developer. There is an information section that explains what Apify's agents do, which is absolutely great!

Cons

I don't like that there are agents with complex information, making it hard for non-developers to understand. I think Apify developers should make information more easier to understand, so as to get the best experience.

### "Apify Worth it"

October 7, 2025

5.0

Pros

It was easy to use and find the API I needed. I just looked it up with their search and tried it with their Free credits. Their documentation was helpful and the methods were not complicated.

Cons

Not really much to say, it was easy to use. I think there could be some more clarity on the documentation and how to use certain aspects of it.

### "Amazing product overall, will be using frequently"

September 3, 2025

5.0

Pros

It's an incredible product that allows me to scrape high quality content that i can use to power my AI workflows. The platform is fairly easy to learn and is pretty intuitive.

Cons

The platform could benefit with a middle tier pricing system where users who don't use it quite enough to justify a monthly subscription, can still use scraper APIs that are exclusively for subscribers. This can be done by introducing a premium fee on each scrape

### "Apify allowed us to solve a challenging problem, including direct access to the developer"

May 28, 2025

5.0

Great first time experience using Apify to secure a massive dataset in a matter of days which was otherwise unaccessible to us

Pros

Apify allowed us to get access to an entire database which was otherwise inaccessible other than record by record, query by query. For a small investment in time and money, we captured data which would have cost 10-20X elsewhere. We also had direct access to the developer who was willing to make updates quickly based on our requirements. This ended up being the fastest, simplest method to secure the entire database results vs. any other option.

Cons

For users unfamiliar with APIs, or the end data source, its interface can require finessing to get your desired results

June 14, 2025

5.0

It has been awesome, using it for scraping from apollo for fraction of the fraction of the cost of apollo credits, awesome stuff.

Pros

I love how you can scrape leads from anywhere and anytime, I love how you can scrape leads off of any platform out there on the internet.

Cons

I have not found any cons yet, maybe the UI could be a bit better, but overall I would say its pretty good for now

### "Best Scraper out there"

March 24, 2026

5.0

Pros

I like using it to scrape data and do data collection for me, which saves me a lot of time. It's amazing for scraping basically any website.

Cons

Sometimes the actors are not well maintained and so you encounter bugs. Also you have to wait on the person to fix them, which can be kind of annoying.

A great experience as a developer to publish actors, and to use actors to satisfy my needs as a user

Pros

Ease of publishing actors and finding actors that can satisfy my needs.

### "Apify: Efficient Lead Tool with Room to Grow"

July 9, 2025

5.0

My experience with Apify was great, automating lead mining and data extraction for 500+ leads in minutes. It saved costs and boosted efficiency, though actor selection could be smoother with more reviews.

Pros

Loved generating 500+ leads fast with Apify’s automation, saving time and costs vs. insurance methods. The intuitive interface made data extraction a breeze for my business.

Cons

Finding reliable actors is tricky due to sparse reviews, requiring trial and error. Better feedback would improve setup ease.
