ListGrabber vs. SimilarTech

Since we use ListGrabber basically only for mail outs and extractions out of Yellow Pages, our organisation is probably not the best one to provide such information.

1. Looking up the technologies, analytics tools, and services used by your competitors and industry leaders. 2. Checking what has changed technology-wise on the website of your competitor, since you've noticed an improvement in their rankings or other website improvements. You can even set up alerts to receive emails every time a new change was made to the technology of the website you're interested in (usually your top competitors').

• Easy to use - Pretty user friendly.
• Compatible with Australian Yellow Pages.
• Extracts information into Excel which helps us to create mail outs.

• We were considering changing a hosting provider because we were not happy with the speed of our website. So, we used SimilarTech to look up which hosting providers our competitors and some other faster websites were using, to help us make an informed choice.
• When the company was considering a new live chat vendor, we also used SimilarTech to see what software some of the best websites on the web are using.

• Drivers are updated constantly by Yellow Pages. Since we use ListGrabber only twice or thrice a year it is not really worthwhile to purchase new versions each year. The product should come with at least a couple of years of free updates.
• Product crashes from time to time when extracting a large amount of information.

• Given the tasks SimilarTech was designed for, I don't really think there are any issues with it. It's hard to think of a situation where I couldn't get the information I needed from SimilarTech.

SimilarTech is more user-friendly and seems to have a bigger index (i.e. covers more websites) of the websites.

• Increased efficiency - ListGrabber helps us get pages of contacts in a few hours, which would probably take days if done manually.
• Since the product extracts to Excel, it is easy to convert into mail out formats.

• Overall SimilarTech had a positive impact, as it saves a lot of time (days) when it comes to research of the competition and new up-and-coming technologies for our website.
• Moreover, it helps to monitor updates on the websites of the industry leaders, and to keep up with tech.
