Title: "Free" — Reality: You Have to Pay $39/Month to Use Anything. Not Even a Free Trial is Offered.
It’s not free! It costs a lot!
It might be good, it might be excellent, but surely it isn’t free. Why is it in the title?!

Pretty much anything you want to do costs credits, and that needs to be clearly stated upfront. I spent time setting everything up, clicked through the steps, and only at the end found out I had 100 credits when the feature I needed costs 5,000. That’s not a small gap, it makes the whole setup feel like wasted time. I get that paid plans are normal, but don’t hide the real credit requirements until the finish line. It’s frustrating and honestly feels ridiculous.

Couldn't recommend this extension highly enough. Works brilliantly and the support has been amazing!

Kullanışsız ve yorucu .. bişey yapacak sanırken bir anda üyelik falan istiyor.
"instant" dururken bunla uğraşmak aptallık olur.

Poorly handle new pages. Good for single page extractions, but there are better ones out there.
And you need to sign in.

I love how easy Simplescraper is to use. It already saved me so much time scraping product reviews. The new update took a minute to get used to but the auto detection feature and the ability to run scrapes in the browser makes my life so much easier.

Doesn't work for me anymore - awful latest update. Used to be very good extension, now getting some nonsense results. I used to use it on websites that pre-select who can login so I even if I name them it won't be useful.

This used to be a simple, easy to use and reliable extension. The update has made it needlessly complicated and less useful. I'm seriously looking for a replacement. Totally disappointing.

At least provide us with the old version extension file, which we can install locally to use - for websites where the updated version is not working.

I consider this plugin great for productivity, I often do spreadsheets with this plugin everything fine.
The last update made something difficult to scrap values, i still cant find out how to do scrap values from a website but the plugin has been worked fine generally.

Please revert the update. Layout and element selection are worse than before. In short, simple scraper is no longer simple.

Please add an option to return to the 1.0 version, the new layout is unusable for me.

Please revert the update. The previous version had an option for manual CSS and href attribute selection which prevented overfetching . Now the data is too much and hard to parse .

I've searched and experimented and searched more and simplescaper allows me to find, parse and specify exactly the information I'm searching for. Awesome that they allow either CSV or JSON downloads! The free access so far has been excellent. Wondering what happens when credits are gone (almost expended them all just in testing out how well this works compared to the dozens of other solutions I've tried... that didn't compare to simple scraper) Thank you developers, and thanks for the awesome walkthroughs and support
