Users consistently praise BuiltWith for delivering extensive information about websites and for being generally useful. Several reviews describe it as a valuable tool in this addon category, with phrases like great and useful indicating strong positive reception. However, a few reviewers report issues such as captchas interrupting interaction, occasional forbidden lookup messages, and upsell-oriented UI.

2026-06-17	To*****	This extension has too many issues: – When the panel is open the list shown of technologies is too long and verbose. It is difficult to discern between main and secondary libraries and services. You simply give up after so much scrolling down. – Out of the five tabs shown on the panel only one is free. – It does not have a dark theme. – Too often when the panel is opened it shows a captcha where an image of an animal is shown and you have to select the correct animal name. Why? – The error “This domain provides misleading technology profiles sorry” appears on many websites when trying to use the panel. There is no point in using this extension. Just use Wappalizer, much better.
