Reviews & Comments of Grepsr - Web Scraping Tool chrome extension

Great tool!! saved a lot of time

totally useless. very hard to use and you need to pay for anything you do on it

Too hard to use. I don't want to have to learn how to use a scraper I just want to click and scrape. Waste of time

Some time work sometime on kiwi-browser tested on tab. I request developer test it too and fix minor bugs

Completely useless. Unless you want to just convert a single list on a single page, don't bother; and even then, you'll probably off with a script anyhow.

Great Extension to get data instantly!!

waste of time... i waste 1 hour to setup then it say "contact us" to activate

Doesnt work

BUG REPORT: Find BUG when trying to scraping some data on Goodreads Quotes. https://www.goodreads.com/quotes?page=1 When trying to scraping the data, Grepsr can not select the selector well. 1. I can see whole bunch of code in the result data 2. The selection doesn't meet my expectation Solution: I hope you could show me the CSS SELECTOR I chose. Your user interaction design is the best in between competitors, but the most important part, data scraper didn't do well. I will wait for your update. [email protected]

I've been looking for a tool like this for a long time! thank you to the developers!!!

Doesn't work - everythings fine until the end when its asking to sign in . When i type login and password green popup "succesfully logged in" appears but nothing happens, popup windows with sign in doesnt disappear

It's easy, but that's perfect for my purposes. It teaches me to understand the scraping mentality, so perfect for a beginner. It cannot download quite a few sites, but I just find another site rather than worry about finding a more complex scrape tool.

oh my god, the beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeest Ever

Fake. wants to get my data by creating an account. Shame on You.

Grepsr isn't designed to handle the complexity of most websites. For example, this site (which records US House of Representative roll call votes) is barebones, and grepsr can't parse it: http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2017/roll710.xml If you choose the various text fields and the numbers, with the intent to export the data into a spreadsheet, G responds with "data is unstructured." And nothing more. No information as to how the user can overcome the deficiency in the app. Isn't that why we want a webscraper in the first place? To AUTOMATE (or corral) data into a structured format? If it can't handle text and numbers, it certainly can't handle complex sites.

Got the job done.

The software itself did something no other software I used could do. Scraped data without me having to program anything for it or pick apart source codes of various sites. But I ran one single free scrape for a very small amount of data and already I'm -1000 on the account. That costed 2000 credits? What is a credit even actually? It's really hard to understand what the price is for the software. So, I ran it once successfully and liked it. But now it's completely useless for me. So the free trial basically is enough to make you a small Excel file.

Support (Binodit) said the following "I've deleted few projects of yours. Please try and let us know if it's all good." Then when I re-tried to run it came up with I am maxed out again, so I went back to support. Their response was "You will be able to create new projects from 1st September." Testing out Gresp to see how/what it generated I ran a sample project/report and recieved 1 record. Which I found out later that the program restricts the amount of projects+reports per month to my plan being 15. I was under the impression my cap was 75k records, when that is not the case. Another issue I had was Grepsr only scraped 550 records at a time for the site I was using. Also multiple times it would only grab 25 records at a time, so I reached out to support asking them to credit back some of the failed reports/projects and they said they deleted some projects and I should be all set to then saying sorry you will have access again next month. This product was unable to do what it should of been able to do, and support wasn't helpful to come up with a resolution.

Was looking for a replacement for Kimono Labs and this is already perfect. It does everything KL did, and more, and it does it better and more intuitively.

Easiest scraping tool by far. Fantastic execution.

it's very handy and smart app. i asked them about an error i keep getting and they fix it in just 5 min. Thank you guys

Very intuitive to use and did exactly what I needed it to do. Thanks!

So easy to use and it iterates over multiple pages effortlessly.

I tried a bunch of apps and add-ons because I needed to get a bunch of names and emails from a webpage (I REALLY didn't want to copy and paste 500 or so emails and names!!!). This is the only one that just worked right out of the box. I watched videos and read manuals for the others but never even got them to work at all. I'm pretty good with computers, but it was annoying and frustrating trying to just get a simple job done. Grepsr did exactly what I needed within 10 minutes of installing it. It was my last attempt, if it didn't work I was just going to copy and paste into a google sheet, so I'm really appreciative that it worked for me.

I'm getting this message whenever I tried to save or click Next " The Data Is Unstructured" I do not see anything else I could click on.

I like it. Its good and does the job efficiently. UX could use a little work but its still in beta so thats understandable.

Neato

Its just so WOW!!! Go ProductHunt
