We verifiëren geen specifieke claims omdat reviewers hun eigen mening mogen geven. We kunnen reviews echter wel als 'Geverifieerd' bestempelen als we bevestiging hebben dat er een zakelijke interactie heeft plaatsgevonden. Meer informatie

Om de integriteit van het platform te beschermen, wordt elke review op ons platform – al dan niet geverifieerd – gescreend door onze geautomatiseerde software.

Very weak for pulling reviews

One of the key things we needed was access to the reviews. Rainforest API only pulls the first page of reviews which is usually around 10. For a product that has hundreds or thousands or reviews, pulling just the first 10 is absolutely useless.

Antwoord van Rainforest API

Hi Manish. Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry that you are experiencing an issue getting reviews beyond the first page. There are sometimes limitations imposed (not on our side) for pulling in reviews when the count is in the thousands. You should still be able to paginate through multiple pages and therefore pull in more than 10 reviews. Our support team would love to assist you in figuring out what might be the issue. Please reach out with an example to our team at hello@rainforestapi.com.

We look forward to hearing from you and helping you get the data you need!

Bad customer service

I have been using the service for years and was delighted. For months now it has started to have different bugs that make the application not return the correct data, which is essential for this type of service. We have had tickets open for 4-6 months and we are still waiting for a response. The last, a couple of tickets opened 2 weeks ago indicating a SERIOUS error and still no response. A couple of years ago, this error already happened and after reporting it they solved it in hours, now ... we are still waiting for a response.

EDIT: Everything remains the same, a ticket opened 1 month ago that makes it impossible to use the API for certain countries and their response is that since it is not something important they do not know when it will be resolved. In other words, not being able to use the service you pay for is not important ...

EDIT: A week later and they still haven't given me a solution and they don't even know when they will be able to get to it.

EDIT: More than a month since the last incident, with no resolution date and we are still paying for it. The customer service is a disaster.

UPDATE: Our apologies for letting you down and conveying in any way that your issue is not important. Understandably, this has been very frustrating for you and is certainly not the experience we aim to provide. The team is investigating your issue and will get back to you with an updated timeline soon. We will work with you to find a suitable resolution.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry that you have been let down in your experience getting your issue resolved. Your business needs matter to us, and we do not take your dissatisfaction lightly.

Our customer success team responds within one day and aims to provide a resolution as quickly as possible. When an issue or request needs our engineering team’s attention, it is assessed and responded to according to its priority among all open issues and requests. Although we may resolve some issues in just a few hours, and perhaps did so with more frequency in the past, we cannot guarantee that SLA for every issue raised. We can assure you that our engineers are working as quickly as possible to fix issues and respond to site or page updates.

We hope to resolve your current issues soon. If there is an open ticket that has gotten no acknowledgment, please email hello@rainforestapi.com referencing this review, so I can direct our Head of Customer Success to investigate. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and hope we can delight you again with a better experience soon.

Let the experts handle your web-scraping

Trying to implement and manage web-scraping internally proved to be a huge maintenance burden for our software team. With Rainforest API, we no longer spend time worrying about how to get our data but, rather, how to use it most effectively to benefit our clients. Thanks for providing a very intuitive, user-friendly API!

Poor support, clunky tool… consider other vendors!

API is clunky and challenging to use for bulk ASIN processing. API’s behaviour was different than expected. Support team refused to consider refunding unused subscription. Do not recommend!

They refuse to refund subscription even one day after subscription renew. They stay behind their policy and refuse to refund. I have test the product one day, pay for one month and forget the date of renew, with a single email before renew I would have close the account and stop it. Amazing way to help a new small customer. Not sure it is a good way to work for 59$. I have never send a wrong review before that's the first one.

excellent service and support

That's an excellent service but it would be better if the data was updated since it's outdated sometimes.

-- Update --
The support was great and resolved my issue. The problem was my wrong request and not the product.

Terrible Experience

Terrible Experience.
Production Plan (250$) to use the method ASIN to GTIN.
10K request done with existing ASIN. Less than 10% GTIN result.
Support indicates they were investigating. No ETA provided. We waited 3 weeks. Nothing have been done.
Credits could not be transfer next month. Move to another provider.

Hi there. Sorry to hear that this was your experience. We looked into your recent ticket and are not seeing any investigation in relation to your inquiry. Unfortunately, we are unable to transfer credits from one product to another at this time.

If we are missing another ticket that was open for 3 weeks, please respond to that last email so the ticket can be reopened and we can assist you again. Sorry again for any trouble.

Almost perfect service

Perfect service, fast and detailed, easy to use.
Unfortunately, results from bulk uploads are not friendly to handle.

Hi Giacomo. Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're happy to hear you've found the service near perfect.

Unfortunately (you're right), CSV results from bulk uploads (Collections) are still subject to a size limit per file. For now, we split the results into smaller groupings in order to ensure smooth downloads across all Collections. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Review API not functioning as advertised

Unfortunately, I have not been able to get the intended results. Firstly, empty results are counted towards my token usage. This means that even when I don't receive any data, my token count is still being deducted. Furthermore, currently the custom review API responses give only the first page as a result, which is not helpful as I need thousands of pages of data. This has resulted in me not being able to use the service as advertised. I have reached out to the support team multiple times for help, but I have not received any helpful response for over 10 days. This is unacceptable, as I am still paying for the service without being able to use it effectively. I urge RainforestAPI to rectify these issues as soon as possible and provide the service that I am paying for. I am extremely dissatisfied with the service provided, and in its current state I do not recommend it to others looking into downloading customer reviews.

Hello Ian. Thank you for the review. We're very sorry for any issue you are experiencing. Our team would be more than happy to investigate any charges for empty results -- we encourage you to share an exact url for any empty result that's been returned. In the case that there has been a mistaken charge, we'll certainly return the credits to your account.

We acknowledge that there has been an issue with the review responses, which we've communicated in your support ticket. Any further update would be communicated via that ticket. Thank you for your understanding.

A valuable tool for any Amazon seller

Just like the title states, this is a critical tool for any seller managing a large catalog with a lot of competitors.

The interface is clean, and easy to use.

Awful Refund Policy. Absolute Garbage of a Company

Awful company policies. They tote about the quality of their API calls but when tested it had a spotty success rate versus just simply using Amazon's add product page with the same UPC. I had only made less than 5% of my monthly allotted request limit and decided to cancel the same day I subscribed. I thus requested a refund and they claimed that all sales are final and no refunds or partial refunds were allowed and that when I cancelled I would lose immediate access to my remaining requests allotment. Absolute garbage company policies.

The best external API but slow

Everything is excellent but I think you can improve these:
1. API speed.
2. Provide refinements in a different endpoint, because the current way is slow and requires a lot of manual work.

Thank you for the feedback, Juan.

In case you haven't discovered this yet: If you are running a large number of requests, it would make sense to use Collections to run the requests in bulk. You’ll get much better speeds overall as the platform runs requests in a Collection concurrently, and you can have up to 15k requests per Collection. Let us know if you have any questions!
