Thanks for the nice words about the service and our support staff.

We’re working hard on improving Crawlera silver bullet-ness :), you can expect to see big performance increases next year, bear with us!

Regarding your Scrapy Cloud recommendation: what language/product do you have your customer spiders built into?

What do you like best about Zyte?

the assistance of scrapinghub team (and I have no more comments into this subject of review. I know scrapinghub is a good extractor plattform, but as team manager so I miss quite tools to get reports of our projects) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zyte?

not being able to extract reports of the projects with the same info of the job (Spider used, Items extracted, Requests done, Errors, Log, Runtime, Started, Finished, and also the periodic jobs info).

That would be very helpful to control de projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Zyte Marketing Team of Zyte

Thanks for the nice words about our support team, and for the feedback about Scrapy Cloud. We don't have an ETA for implementing this reporting functionality at the moment, unfortunately.

What do you like best about Zyte?

Easy of use for Scrapy programmers (specially freelancers) and for users (their clients), free tier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zyte?

I consistently get "Sorry, can't find that page" in every navigation through the app (even the home page app.scrapinghub.com). Please fix that!

Find an easier way to keep key-value order. Customers need that a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Zyte Marketing Team of Zyte

Thanks for the nice words about Scrapy Cloud, our scalable platform for managing and running your web crawlers.

We were not aware of that "Sorry, can't find that page" issue you're referring to, I am guessing you opened a support ticket about it?

What do you refer to by "keeping key-value order"?

Lastly, a question: do you invite your customers to run spiders directly on Scrapy Cloud, or run them on their behalf?

What do you like best about Zyte?

Mostly the versatility, ability to selectively scale and ease of deployment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zyte?

I feel the compliance related to the scraped data is still a challenge and at times we'd to either delete the data or prune the data elements to remain legally pliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zyte?

The temporal charts were very useful to have an immediate idea of the use of proxies Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zyte?

Since I used it through a third party I feel like the option were a bit limited, but perhaps it’s their fault and not scrapinghub itself Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zyte?

I like this tool very much as it provides data very efficiently and effectively. Helps me to analyse the data for the business perspective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zyte?

As this software is open source software then if something went wrong than we can't complaint to anyone. Otherwise this is a great tool for data and web crawling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
