Reliable rotating IP service with low price and responsive and helpful support team

Overall very positive experience with ScraperAPI and have been a customer for 2 years +. Always pleased with my interactions with the support team and their response time and their efforts to help.

Pros: - The URL encoding is fairly straightforward to implement and maintain - The support team is quick to respond and support on any issues that come up - The pricing is very reasonable and they give a lot of queries vs other providers - was able to upgrade, downgrade, or pause subscription without any issues

Cons: - there are a few websites where it didn't work for me, e.g Tesco.com - the IP locations were not always accurate, e.g set to USA, and still see China, or Malaysia etc appearing as the location on Amazon.com
