What do you like best about PhantomBuster?

I like the lead scraping (from LinkedIn sales navigator) and lead messaging tools, especially on autopilot sending LinkedIn personalized connection messages to non-1st degree connections based on auto-generating LinkedIn sales navigator lead lists.

Friendly and helpful customer service department. When I was getting setup, when I had trouble getting a tool to work for what I needed, when I needed to decide what best tool to use, and when I was deciding whether to take a break from my membership...a human live support agent has been there for me, patient, resourceful, clear, and gotten me the results and care I needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhantomBuster?

The interface could do with some improvement, and perhaps some AI suggestions about what tools make sense given one's website, business sales/marketing documents, and track record using their tools.

There's too many tools on the internet one pays for and they don't have enough responsibility of keeping in contact with the users who are lapsing in their usage but still paying.

However, with Phantom Buster, they understood that I needed a break in usage and very transparently recommended I cancel the account and return when I need it again. I will very soon. This honesty breeds customer trust and future loyalty. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhantomBuster solving and how is that benefiting you?

We had a 1-2 month period where we weren't using it, and have temporarily left. Better/recommended integrations with more CRMs would be great.

Benefitting me in the past in a number of ways:

Lead extraction, lead enrichment, and lead engagement automations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about PhantomBuster?

I really enjoy using PhantomBuster at my digital marketing company. It has helpd my team automate our intial engagement strategy, ensuring the posts we publish for clients have timely action without our team having to stop what they're working on throughout the day. There's a plethora of other automations available, but this is the perfect use case for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhantomBuster?

I do really enjoy PhantomBuster, but I believe for our specific use case it should be more cost-effective. We do not utilize the entirely of the platform and would like to negotiate more credits for our use, but that wasn’t possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhantomBuster solving and how is that benefiting you?

This is solving the problem of having to do manual work. It frees up time for my people and makes them more efficient so they can work on more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhantomBuster?

I like that we can do google maps scrapes at scale by attaching a googlesheet.

Also that the googlemaps search can literrally be anything we want - I have used other providers which have defined catergories (Restaurant etc) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhantomBuster?

Hard to use at scale for our agency - honestly have looked into other options because of this.

We want to scrape 100k+ contacts per month, but your pricing isnt really built for this.

If we are to leave it will be because of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhantomBuster solving and how is that benefiting you?

We scrape google maps data to use for cold emails for our clients. Particulaly usefull for SMB's Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhantomBuster?

I love that it automates my tasks and clearly reports on the progress and success of the automation.

I have implemented PhantomBuster at two companies now. The first one, I used Phantombuster to convert a list of companies that visited our website to relevant employees at those companies, reach out to them on LinkedIn and refer them back to our site. In just the 30-day trial, this automation generated a lead that turned into a client, proving a 5000% ROI. (software sales, hence the high ROI for one sale)

I'm using PhantomBuster with my current company to reach out to trade show attendees on LinkedIn prior to the show to encourage them to visit our booth or schedule a meeting in advance of the show. It has saved me significant man hours and has definitely increased booth traffic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhantomBuster?

I think Phantombuster is pretty great.

My colleagues did find a competing software called La Growth Machine that we're going to look into implementing which may take over our current use for PhantomBuster. The difference between the two for our use case is that La Growth Machine allows you to respond to emails and social media replies from automations within the platform. This helps when using multiple different LinkedIn accounts. I can see all my replies as well as all the replies my coworkers are getting from outreach from automations running through her profile.

What do you like best about PhantomBuster?

It helps grow my social following on LinkedIn in an automated way, saving time and doing less operational work. For example, you can easily scrape those engaged with your posts and outreach to them. Or DM people who have engaged with your content and continue the conversation. These are some of the use cases I have used it for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhantomBuster?

Sometimes, there are bugs you need to figure out yourself, so it does take time to figure out the right setup and then fix any phantom if it is broken. So expect to spend some time learning the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhantomBuster solving and how is that benefiting you?

Gorwing my social following and automatins operational work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The connections are breaking down after a while. Alsi their customer service has 3 layers of auto responses with default (repeating) information. So you have go through that to get actual help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is eliminating the manual labor to connect to our customers (we are a marketing company) accounts and sending invites to grow their connections list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
