Connotate's analysis was not as useful to me as the data itself, because we were using it to inform us of trends rather than make decisions.

    I do not think I would have the budget to use it currently. When using it previously, was working with the developers to improve the product and was given accounts at no cost

    Import.io
    • It really helped to collect large chunks of data from the web.
    • When compared to writing a script from scratch, it is very simple to use for creating a web agent.
