FAQ

Does this actor scrape product detail pages or reviews?
No—only the listing cards shown in category or services results, keeping runs fast and cost-efficient.

Can I enter multiple category URLs at once?
No. The actor accepts a single URL per run for reliability. Queue another run for each additional category.

How many listings appear per page?
Typically 25.

Why are residential proxies required?
Capterra throttles commercial IP ranges. Rotating residential IPs ensure smooth, block-free scraping.

Is the “Doubtful Website” field always accurate?
It's a best-effort guess from Yahoo search; verify before critical use.
