" July 17, 2026 5.0 Pros they have the GREATEST customer service, they responded to my ticket in minutes AND resolved it in minutes. thanks \[sensitive content hidden\] Cons tbh, customer service wise they were so good but they were only accessible by email, there is no live chat in their site or snything similar Review Source Arthur W. Founder - Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great product - even greater support" January 17, 2025 5.0 I've been really pleased with my experience working with it, although the Go SDK has asked me to write a processing layer on top of it to have good typing. Exchanging with their developers and customer support was excellent Pros Fast scraping, good docs, developers are very responsive, really excellent customer support Cons Go SDK is non-idiomatic and could benefit from some rework, API key is displayed by default on the dashboard, lacked some info about underlying infrastructure (e.g. viewport size) Alternatives considered [Google Maps scraper](https://www.capterra.com/p/228041/Google-Maps-scraper/)[Google Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/268690/Google-Cloud-Platform/) Reason for choosing SerpApi Cheaper than Google's API, way faster than Outscraper Review Source RP Remmy P. Consultant Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Extracting of publication info using SerpApi" October 5, 2023 4.0 We needed to estimate the impact of a service that we offer to researchers by compiling the amount of publications that have resulted from the service. SerpApi eased most of the burden. Pros The search using DOI was very useful. It brought out exact matches to queries. Cons The query using bibliographic parameter brings out too many unnecessary matches. Review Source Amirreza R. CEO Information Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Exceptional support and a product built around customer satisfaction" March 24, 2026 5.0 My experience with SerpApi has been extremely positive. The product works well, is easy to use, and provides real value for money. It is especially useful for data extraction and web scraping tasks, and it saves a lot of time compared to building everything from scratch. More importantly, their support team made a big impression on me. They treated me in a way that made it clear that quality and customer satisfaction are their top priorities. I highly recommend it. Pros The best part of SerpApi for me has been their support. They really showed me that customer satisfaction and quality matter more to them than just making money. Their team was helpful, responsive, and professional. I also really like their system because it is clean, reliable, and makes data extraction much easier. Cons I honestly do not have any major complaints. The platform has many capabilities, so it can take a little time at first to explore everything, but overall the experience has been very good. Review Source MN Murelh N. Web developer Internet Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Simple and straightforward" November 24, 2025 5.0 As said in pros, coming from Google's documentation, SerpAPI offers a relaxing experience. I use it on one website to retrieve reviews. The free plan is does a lot for small project. The JSON file it provides is rich with datas. I recommend. In addition, the team responds quickly. Pros \- Ease of Use & Learning Curve : The document would help a lot any beginner, but if you at least working on creating a website, it is so easy to use that we not not really have to talk about "learning curve". As a PHP web developer, I set it up in one hour or less, taking my time to see what I could do. A beginner have take 2 hours maybe (most likely, for most of the time, looking for Google's ids and stuff). Coming from Google's documentation, SerpAPI offers a relaxing experience. - Web Scraping & Data Extraction : SerpAPI does what it says and it does it very well by providing a well sourced and structured JSON file. - Value for Money : I am doing fine with free plan. It gives you 8 reviews (your sort it by date or score, as you wish), width a decent amount of calls/month. The paid plan are not that expensive either, but i do not have the need yet. Cons Nothing to say. Only using one offer I did not encounter something that would make me say "that's bad" Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Designer Graphic Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great tool and great customer service!!" March 19, 2026 5.0 The customer service is also really great. Super helpful. I had a quick issue and they resolved it immediately. Super nice too. Pros I was able to generate hundreds of listings very quickly. this is a great tool!! I synced it up to N8N and it flows perfectly. Cons I didn't have any issues. I have nothing to compare it to so I don't know how other services perform. Review Source MAD Milton Abner D. Telemarketer Information Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Fast and Humble Customer Specialist Agent \[sensitive content hidden\]" April 16, 2026 5.0 Pros I've barely discovered it and I already feel like I'm going to do amazing things with this thing. My account wouldn't activate during registration; late last night, Agent \[sensitive content hidden\] helped me. If you're reading this, thank you again for your efficiency. Cons Nothing as I said I barely discover it. So I will use it before making any suggestions to the team. Thanks Review Source DB David B. Senior Program Manager - Kapient.com Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Integrated into Kapient.com for access to critical SEO data needs" March 30, 2026 5.0 Pros SerpAPI is quite comprehensive and saves us a LOT of effort. We can access a range of data sources for our app. Lessens our technical debt and keeps on top of any changes from the source. Cons Nothing so far. we've been using it for six months during QA/beta and have yet to find any issues. The only thing is the tokens get used up pretty quick (which I guess is good) Review Source JV Jose V. Director Research Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Professionals with a focus on customer service" February 24, 2026 5.0 Overall, it is very good. The customer support team works in shifts, so tickets are never left unattended. Everyone shares a customer-focused company culture and is very professional. Pros What I like most about them is how quickly they respond to customers and the support they provide in exchange for a very reasonable fee. The data and its quality are very good. Cons In general, I have no negative criticism to make. When the system changes for any reason unrelated to their system, they repair it within a very reasonable time frame. Review Source SH SCHEILA H. CEO Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excellent API with Exceptional Human Support" March 20, 2026 5.0 I use SerpApi to power a custom viability calculator. From the technical implementation via Firebase to the billing support, the experience has been seamless. \[sensitive content hidden\] from the support team was a lifesaver and helped me transition to a setup that fits my current needs. I highly recommend them! Pros The customer support is phenomenal. They were very understanding of my business situation in Brazil and the high USD exchange rate. The API is very stable and integrated perfectly with my Firebase setup to power my viability calculator on WordPress. Cons I have no negative points about the service itself. The pricing in USD can be a challenge for small international businesses, but the support team makes up for it by being flexible and truly helping their customers grow. Review Source AM Andris M. Full stack developer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "SerpAPI has top-tier support staff and customer service" May 14, 2025 5.0 Overall, I was satisfied with her service. It was just a bit overkill. I ended up canceling my service after talking with customer service and they were so helpful and they gave me three months free. Pros I love the ease of use and the fact that it can easily be hooked up to an N8N workflow with an HTTP request. And I love the amount of services you can search. Cons I wish they had smaller packages with their plans seeing that their base plan is $75 for 5000 searches. I would love to see a smaller package for $20 for 1000 searches.

January 17, 2025 5.0 Easy to get up to speed with SerpApi, reliable and compatible with my AI use case. Pros Stellar support, super reliable API for using with AI agents. Cons nothing to complain about, everything works as expected. Review Source LR Leo R. Owner Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "serpapi.com number 1 for all your data aggregation needs! " October 15, 2024 5.0 The website is very easy to use, providing payload examples and very detailed user docs to use the API calls. Love how you can manually tinker in the playground for all API calls they have before moving them to code. My experience with their amazing support team certainly won me over. For me that is most important. Pros The support team are always on hand to support in any issues you may have. I was very impressed with the support I received. For me you can't put a price on this when a business is dependent on a rapid reply. Superb. Cons I wish unused API calls could be carried over to the next month or at least a chunk of them. Review Source AB Avi B. Founder and CEO Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The best API solution we found to extract Googles' services data" December 23, 2023 5.0 The development team thought the documentation is great and that it's really easy to deploy. Response time are fast enough for our needs (and can be faster with additional payment). Pros \* The documentation is great and easy to get \* The support team and service is AMAZING - very responsive and willing to assist \* We needed mussing items to be extracted and SerpAPI delivered this request in few days! That's not something you see everyday! \* It's not the cheapest solution you can find - but for us it was reasonable and affordable considering the above advantages and that we get exactly what we need Cons I just wish they had another pricing tier for really early stage businesses/projects - which would make it probably easier and faster for us to sign up. Even though, comparing to the other alternatives which we tested - I believe we got the best value for money with SerpAPI. Review Source NN Nicole N. Founder Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great API for Google Events" May 1, 2024 5.0 Great company to work with. Happy to launch with their support. Pros Easy to configure and get going. Great response and customer support. Cons Pagination requires multiple calls, but that is pretty standard. Review Source BR Bharath R.

Data engineer Cosmetics Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for extracting data from Google services" December 18, 2023 5.0 The overall experience has been very good. the customer support is great and the service is unmatchable. Pros The best thing I liked about SERP is the data accuracy of SERP API. Also the API Response is very good with very little failure rate. Cons The plans are not much cost-effective. the lowest plans could have been a bit cheaper or more hits could have been provided. Review Source sB sambit B.

Developer Education Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Product!" February 13, 2023 5.0 Pros I am using a Google Jobs API through SerpAPI and it is working great. Not only is it pretty much the only Jobs API on the market, but it is also extremely easy to implement. The customer service is great as well whenever I had a question. Cons The searches that aren't already cached take a few seconds. I could upgrade to a quicker speed but it costs more money. Not sure if it is worth it to me. Review Source JR Joshua R. Professor Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Big fan of SEPRAPI" February 22, 2023 5.0 Pros This is powerful to use for academic research. Cons The cost is a bit high, but it is worth it to me. Review Source AF Alex F. CMO Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Programmatic SEO Data " May 17, 2022 4.0 Pros Easy to use API & GSheet integration Wide range of Google search operators to crawl Fast crawling and retrieval of data Great customer support Cons Support documentation is not as clear as it could be so take some trial an error to get working. When exploring the product 100 calls can get easily (accidently) used very very quickly for new users testing ideas out. An ability to limit results whilst testing would be useful. Review Source Umidjon V.
