User Reviews

Positive reviews highlight easy setup, data preview, video guides, CSV export, and free browser-plugin access, plus time-saving batch capabilities. Negative feedback centers on weak documentation, a confusing learning curve (especially for recursive scraping), and pricing ambiguity between free and paid access.

Pros

Easy setup with a GUI-based HTML/CSS selector, plus helpful video guides and a data preview to verify results.
Quick export to CSV/Excel, making data handling convenient.
Free to use as a browser plugin.
Time-saving, especially for batch downloads and handling multiple entries.
Powerful for users comfortable with CSS selectors and precise data extraction.

Cons

Documentation is poor and training materials are hard to follow.
The UI can be confusing with a steep learning curve, especially for recursive scraping and the tree view.
Pricing information is inconsistent, with some reviews claiming it’s free while others say it only works with a paid service.

Recent reviews

User interface is completely different from what advertised in the videos.

Is Web Scraper Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Web Scraper requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Web Scraper has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
