What reviewers say

Bars show how often it is raised

Praise

6 themes

300+ prioritized SEO hints with severity scoring and clear fix explanations, considered best-in-class for visual audits.

JavaScript crawling is included at no extra cost on every tier, unlike Screaming Frog where JS rendering is a premium feature.

Only crawler offering both desktop (up to 500K URLs) and cloud (up to 10M URLs) so teams can scale from solo to enterprise.

Visual data presentation with charts and graphs is widely cited as the most intuitive in the technical SEO category.

Complaints

6 themes

Resource-intensive on large sites; a 100K-page JS-rendered crawl can take 8-12 hours and consume 8GB+ RAM.

No keyword research, backlink analysis, rank tracking, or content optimization, so it must be paired with another tool.

~0.20% market share vs Screaming Frog's 15.41% means fewer community tutorials and forum answers.

Desktop pricing is not visible on the public pricing page without selecting a currency, hurting buyer transparency.

Ratings: 4.5/5 on g2 (0 reviews) · 4.9/5 on capterra (0 reviews). As recorded 7 June 2026; counts move, so check the source before quoting.
