### "A really great way to crawl a site for technical SEO"

October 9, 2020

4.0

It works!!

Pros

The price, crawl bots and amount of data it spits out all for free is amazing.

Cons

I unfortunately used this software when only a desktop app was available. Always wished for a cloud version of it.

### "Technical Missing Contents on Your Website"

April 24, 2019

4.0

Pros

I was introduced this software by our website enhancement agency which identified me many technical deficiencies in our website, such as too many keywords, missing H1, H2 and page titles. I realized that our website did not have key technical items and I am happy that now that our website has basic elements of the technical items.

Cons

Maybe because of our website size, it takes a bit of time to load.

### "Lets you get in the weeds"

July 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

This SEO tool is about as all-encompassing as you will find. You can really dig in and find pretty much any info you'd want here. And there's great product support for all your questions... which you'll probably have for such an advanced tool.

Cons

This isn't for the weekend warrior SEO. It's an advanced SEO tool, so there's a definite learning curve.

### "Screaming Frog SEO tool Review"

August 14, 2019

5.0

The tool does its job which is all that I ask for.

Pros

Has many functions that can help me evaluate a website and an effective tool to help me complete my job.

Cons

Not the easiest to use. It's user interface also looks pretty outdated. It could use an upgrade to the UI experience.

### "Great tool for discovering SEO improvements"

December 31, 2019

5.0

Screaming Frog has been a great addition to the SEO toolkit. I use it in conjunction with Google Analytics.

Pros

I use it to extra meta titles, meta descriptions and headings so I can optimize the SEO. Also to find broken links and errors, which helps to improve a lot the user experience. It works pretty fast (although there is no cloud version that can speed up the process).

Cons

The free version is great for services based website where the number of URLs are under 500. There is only a yearly plan beside the free plan, which is inconvenient in case of a single use.

### "A multipurpose crawler with a bit dated UI"

April 29, 2021

5.0

That said, ScreamingFrog is hands down my crawler of choice. From new site launches to SEO health-checks, I rely on ScreamingFrog to get the job done. If you know what you are looking for and keep digging chances are, you will find it within this crawler. Hot Tip - many sites have images lazy loaded. Use Javascript config crawl for them else you will not find your images! Hope this helps someoine out there!

Pros

The host of features it has. Whatever you need in a crawler is probably somewhere built into Screaming Frog but that is both a pro and a con as I will explain below.

Cons

The UI and the menu-structure is a bit clunky and dated. As an example, if you are crawling a staging site, it can take you hours to get the configuration right so that you are able to crawl. The support documentation is there but it is somewhat hard to get to the right bit of information.

### "Websites are no secret"

December 4, 2019

We got a website migration done, all URL's indexed and they are now linked to a new url

Pros

The free version allows indexing websites and made the process of migrating a website very easy without losing a lot of SEO value.

Cons

its hard to learn, had to watch multiple videos and guides to get the programm to work and achieve my result.

### "Easily have a Technical SEO audit of your website with Screaming Frog SEO Spider "

September 27, 2020

5.0

One of the best tool for Technical analysis of your website.

Pros

The tool is easy to use and download. Simply add the URL of website and you will get all the data regarding technical SEO perspective.

Cons

The software is application based and gets many updates, it would have been great if the software was web based
