Overall Satisfaction with Import.io
I mainly used import.io to refresh feeds used for digital marketing through Google Adwords and other similar digital strategies. It's basically a scraper that you can set up in minutes without having to learn or maintain any code. With a desktop application, it was initially free. Before translating, we used the Import.io service to crawl a website for meta tags.
- When it comes to scraping data from large URL lists, it's very effective and precise.
- It promised to be extremely simple to use, with no coding required.
- Crawls and scrapes pages based on patterns you specify through examples.
- Scrapes a specific section of a website.
- It necessitates coding for the specific task at hand. It stated that this would not be the case.
- Since it recently went cloud-only, a desktop application needs to be reintroduced.
- When compared to other open source competitors, additional scraping features would be nice to see.
- This used to be free and very useful, so pricing needs to be addressed right away.
- Data collection & Collaboration within the team.
- It really helped to collect large chunks of data from the web.
- When compared to writing a script from scratch, it is very simple to use for creating a web agent.
Import.io excels at creating a scraping campaign tailored to your needs in a matter of minutes. It's ideal if you need to scrape data on a regular basis, whether on a large or small scale. After you've created a scraping crawler, you can simply run it and return after lunch to enjoy your data without having to second-guess its accuracy.
