The product works well, is easy to use, and provides real value for money. It is especially useful for data extraction and web scraping tasks, and it saves a lot of time compared to building everything from scratch. More importantly, their support team made a big impression on me. They treated me in a way that made it clear that quality and customer satisfaction are their top priorities. I highly recommend it. Pros The best part of SerpApi for me has been their support. They really showed me that customer satisfaction and quality matter more to them than just making money. Their team was helpful, responsive, and professional. I also really like their system because it is clean, reliable, and makes data extraction much easier. Cons I honestly do not have any major complaints. The platform has many capabilities, so it can take a little time at first to explore everything, but overall the experience has been very good.

Exchanging with their developers and customer support was excellent Pros Fast scraping, good docs, developers are very responsive, really excellent customer support Cons Go SDK is non-idiomatic and could benefit from some rework, API key is displayed by default on the dashboard, lacked some info about underlying infrastructure (e.g. viewport size) Alternatives considered [Google Maps scraper](https://www.capterra.com/p/228041/Google-Maps-scraper/)[Google Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/268690/Google-Cloud-Platform/) Reason for choosing SerpApi Cheaper than Google's API, way faster than Outscraper Review Source RP Remmy P. Consultant Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Extracting of publication info using SerpApi" October 5, 2023 4.0 We needed to estimate the impact of a service that we offer to researchers by compiling the amount of publications that have resulted from the service. SerpApi eased most of the burden. Pros The search using DOI was very useful. It brought out exact matches to queries. Cons The query using bibliographic parameter brings out too many unnecessary matches.

What more can you ask of an API service? Pros Their API is faster and more reliable than anything else I've tried. It's easy to integrate, their support is excellent, and they have flexible billing that won't halt your operations if you go over your limit.

The customer support team works in shifts, so tickets are never left unattended. Everyone shares a customer-focused company culture and is very professional. Pros What I like most about them is how quickly they respond to customers and the support they provide in exchange for a very reasonable fee. The data and its quality are very good. Cons In general, I have no negative criticism to make. When the system changes for any reason unrelated to their system, they repair it within a very reasonable time frame.

Founder and CEO Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The best API solution we found to extract Googles' services data" December 23, 2023 5.0 The development team thought the documentation is great and that it's really easy to deploy. Response time are fast enough for our needs (and can be faster with additional payment). Pros \* The documentation is great and easy to get \* The support team and service is AMAZING - very responsive and willing to assist \* We needed mussing items to be extracted and SerpAPI delivered this request in few days! That's not something you see everyday! \* It's not the cheapest solution you can find - but for us it was reasonable and affordable considering the above advantages and that we get exactly what we need Cons I just wish they had another pricing tier for really early stage businesses/projects - which would make it probably easier and faster for us to sign up. Even though, comparing to the other alternatives which we tested - I believe we got the best value for money with SerpAPI. Review Source TL Tom L.

Web developer Internet Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Simple and straightforward" November 24, 2025 5.0 As said in pros, coming from Google's documentation, SerpAPI offers a relaxing experience. I use it on one website to retrieve reviews. The free plan is does a lot for small project. The JSON file it provides is rich with datas. I recommend. In addition, the team responds quickly. Pros \- Ease of Use & Learning Curve : The document would help a lot any beginner, but if you at least working on creating a website, it is so easy to use that we not not really have to talk about "learning curve". As a PHP web developer, I set it up in one hour or less, taking my time to see what I could do. A beginner have take 2 hours maybe (most likely, for most of the time, looking for Google's ids and stuff). Coming from Google's documentation, SerpAPI offers a relaxing experience. - Web Scraping & Data Extraction : SerpAPI does what it says and it does it very well by providing a well sourced and structured JSON file. - Value for Money : I am doing fine with free plan. It gives you 8 reviews (your sort it by date or score, as you wish), width a decent amount of calls/month. The paid plan are not that expensive either, but i do not have the need yet. Cons Nothing to say. Only using one offer I did not encounter something that would make me say "that's bad" Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Senior Programmer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Senior Developer" July 16, 2025 5.0 Excellent - I am going to sign up to one of their paid plans. Well worth the money - much much better than crawling yourself. Pros The support is fantastic! And the data returned is of good quality too. Friendly, fast and to the point. Cons To be honest there isn't much i could complain about their services. They make up for gaps left by google and others. Review Source BM Brennan M. Director Military Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Product even for Beginners" June 6, 2025 5.0 I use SerpAPI to make LLM prompt chains and AI Agents.

The SerpiAPI team has done a great job putting together all of the functionality in a simple to understand format. I use SerpAPI for several use cases and I just think they've done a great job with the overall product. Cons There's not much to not like.
