Extract valuable data from the Capterra software database with our Capterra Scraper. Gather product information, related products, insights, portfolio, real client reviews, and more. Explore top software listings for your business.
Features
Capterra doesn't provide a very flexible or free API, but this scraper acts as an unofficial Capterra API to help you extract the data you need, when you need it, and at scale.
Capterra Scraper supports the following features:
-
Search any keyword
-
Scrape lists
-
Scrape resources
-
Scrape categories
-
Scrape products
-
Scrape reviews
-
Scrape services
Capterra provides "Best business software. With software reviews, rating infographics, and the most comprehensive list of the top". Scraping that content and extracting it in a structured format could give you invaluable business insights and an edge over the competition.
Tutorial
Check out this blog post on how to extract data from Capterra with unofficial Capterra API for more information on the scraper.
Bugs, fixes, updates, and changelog
This scraper is under active development. If you have any feature requests, you can create an issue from here.
Upcoming changes
- Retrieve comparisons.
- Enrich reviews and output of the products.
Input parameters
The input of this scraper should be JSON containing the list of pages o that should be visited. Possible fields are:
-
search: (Required) (Array) Keyword that you want to search on Capterra. -
startUrls: (Required) (Array) List of Capterra URLs. You should only provide search or detail URLs. -
includeReviews: (Optional) (Boolean) Adding reviews into the product objects is optional and by default, it isfalse. If you want to scrape the reviews of the companies, then you can set this option astrue. -
endPage: (Optional) (Number) Final number of page that you want to scrape. The default isInfinite. This applies to allsearchrequests andstartUrlsindividually. -
maxItems: (Optional) (Number) You can limit scraped products. This should be useful when you search big lists. -
proxy: (Required) (Proxy Object) Proxy configuration. -
customMapFunction: (Optional) (String) Function that takes each object's handle as an argument and returns the object with executing the function.
This solution requires the use of proxy servers, either your own proxy servers or Apify Proxy.
Tips
When you want to scrape over a specific listing URL, just copy and paste the link as one of the startURL.
If you would like to scrape only the first page of a list, then add the link for the page and have the endPage as 1.
Please also keep in mind that the includeReviews parameter will add multiple requests per product. That's why the number of requests or CUs that are consumed might be higher if you set this option as true.
Compute unit consumption
Capterra Scraper is optimized to run extremely fast and scrape many listings as possible, so it forefronts all listing detail requests. If the actor doesn't get blocked very often, it will scrape 100 listings in 2 minutes and consume ~0.07-0.08 compute units.
Capterra Scraper input example
{ "startUrls": [ "https://www.capterra.com/p/210664/CRYENGINE/", "https://www.capterra.com/search/?search=game%20engine", "https://www.capterra.com/services/sp/178/accenture/", "https://www.capterra.com/services/data-analytics/", "https://www.capterra.com/business-intelligence-software/" ], "search": "Game engine", "includeReviews": false, "proxy": { "useApifyProxy": true }, "maxItems": 50 }
During the run
During the run, the actor will output messages letting you know what is going on. Each message always contains a short label specifying which page from the provided list is currently specified.
When items are loaded from the page, you should see a message about this event with a loaded item count and total item count for each page.
If you provide incorrect input to the actor, it will immediately stop with a failure state and output an explanation of what is wrong.
Capterra export
During the run, the actor stores results into a dataset. Each item is a separate item in the dataset.
You can manage the results in any language (Python, PHP, Node.js/NPM). See the FAQ or our API reference to learn more about getting results from this Capterra actor.
Scraped Capterra product example
The structure of each item in Capterra product looks like this:
