Apify vs. SerpApi

Very well suited for situations where I need well-structured data at scale, automating interactions with websites that do not provide an official API, and dealing with JavaScript-heavy pages. Less ideal for situations that require real-time data updates, or instant even even-driven processing. It's designed more for scheduled tasks.

• Social media scraping is phenomenal and allows you to have information practically in real time in seconds, which would otherwise be very laborious.
• Extracting data from a social network like TikTok also makes our data analysis much simpler.
• Extracting ideas from articles is now much easier, thanks to everything that can be achieved with the range of tools offered by Apify.

• sometimes the devs are working on one of the scrapers when it breaks and you don't really get a notice for that, it just doesn't work. Esp starts to be a problem when it's supposed to be running in the background.
• Loading cookies into the different actors is kind of a pain.
• vague pricing models. all the actors are priced differently, and the difference between "usage" "result" and "event" is pretty confusing

It's the best because you can just load in a limited amount of money and limit your financial exposure to using a tool like this. so renewing isn't a big consideration... i know that i'm going to need the tool in the future and i'll load it with money accordingly when im ready.

The site is laid out pretty well. There is a learning curve, but it is not steep. Integrations are fairly straightforward using the API and JSON files. Integrates well with Make automations, which is essential for our team and organization. I am pleased with the performance and flexibility of the platform.

I was very happy with the support I received from Apify. They are always ready to answer all your questions and help solve problems you have.

The reason we prefer Apify to other alternatives is that it has more functionality and APIs that serve different purposes. In addition, thanks to its libraries prepared for easy integration into many programming languages, it becomes very easy to integrate into every project in different languages. In this way, it deserves to be ahead of its competitors.

• No need to search for high-quality web-scrapers
• Its more costly than finding free solutions, but the advanced product of Apify will make up for that
• No need to worry about multiple different implementations for different products. You only have to care about the Apify implementation which saves you a lot of time
