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.

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.
