Altair Monarch vs Bright Data comparison

"Monarch lets you quickly extract in your preferred format."

"Altair Monarch is valuable because it allows a one-time setup for data extraction, making the process extremely easy with just a few clicks to get the output."

"It offers features tailored to various project sizes and requirements, making it suitable for both small—and large-scale data scraping needs."

"The response time was fast, even when we had to run thousands of requests."

"The platform's ease of use is a significant advantage. The web interface allows me to initiate queries easily and returns data in a structured format."

"The solution's most valuable feature is its mobile proxies."

"The solution provides comprehensive support services, including many tutorials and documentation. In terms of web scraping, it has proven to be the most effective tool."

"The main use case for me is utilizing Bright Data's unblocking services that allow me to receive the whole protected web page via a simple API call."

"The most valuable feature of Bright Data is its proxy server, which effectively mimics real human behavior, avoiding complex navigation in the browser and reducing server load during scraping. This makes it easier to scrape data sets."

"The product's initial setup phase was very easy."

"I rate Altair Monarch seven out of 10 for affordability. Recently, the pricing model changed from end-user licensing to a concurrent licensing model."

"The product could be more user-friendly for beginners."

"The problem with the tool is that it is not big enough...It is not that user-friendly."

"Bright Data could improve its user interface and dashboard to make it more user-friendly. I found it confusing and hard to navigate initially, and even after using it for three months, I still struggle sometimes to find what I need. It would be helpful if they could enhance the presentation and organization of their dashboard to make it easier for users like me to access and manage data effectively. Learning to use Bright Data may take a few days due to its current usability challenges, but it's manageable. However, realizing its full capabilities might take longer due to navigation difficulties and lack of clarity in data presentation."

"The product's primary area for improvement is the documentation."

"I think Bright Data and the tools within its catalog are still unpopular. Earlier, I did not know that Bright Data had a web scraping browser."

"The solution could be improved by simplifying the setup process for new developers, as it can be complex for those without experience. Making manual settings easier and enabling a one-click setup would help bridge this gap. Everything else about Bright Data is fine."

"The Datasheet API has unclear documentation."

"One area for product improvement might be the interface's complexity for students who need more coding experience."

"I got a type of free access, but it was through a referral from my friend. I got some credits free from the tool's end."

"The product has average pricing."

"I don’t think the solution’s pricing is expensive."

"Compared to other proxy servers, Bright Data's pricing is quite reasonable. I"

"Bright Data is not an expensive tool compared to its competitors."

"The product pricing is reasonable for its features."

"Regarding pricing, we paid about 1000 dollars monthly for Bright Data. We started with their pay-as-you-go plan, which was expensive as we were charged per GB. Then we moved to the 500 dollar package, then the 1000 dollar package. We considered the 2000 dollar package they introduced recently."

"I think the pricing is fair, if it is used in a business. The pricing model might need some adjustments if I am using it for a personal purpose, especially if I use it for a month or two."
