Botify vs. Lumar

Botify is great for large websites because the crawler can handle millions of pages and a ton of data. If your site only has a couple thousand or hundred thousand pages, there are probably cheaper tools that can be used to crawl your site and you may not need as much in-depth reporting.

It is useful for our clients to help identify where there are any issues and what improvements should be made. We are able to use all the counts of each elements to work out which to prioritise and create an action plan for our clients. If a team isn't able to implement any of the insights from within this tool, then it probably wouldn't be worth the money

• GUI, when you run a crawl, the response is epic. It isn't just results, the results are very easy to understand.
• Again, as pertaining to the explanation above. If you use other crawl software, it can be difficult to get insights, whereas DeepCrawl makes it easy. You can get proper insights.
• It is so easy to put your stamp on things. DeepCrawl gives you an option as a consultant that you might not have had before, it is your backup.

It's great once you know how to use it... That being said there can definitely be some hiccups trying to learn the program. Even when writing this review i originally gave it an 8 and realized how many things I didn't even know existed after using it for a couple of years. Not the best 'usability' if you can't even find all the features you might want to use.

I liked the platform overall. It is a good crawler. I no longer use because it's duplicate of what I get with seoClarity. I did not give it 10/10 because sometimes I had a hard time isolating site areas that I wanted and didn't get much technical support from Conductor on how to use the tool

Screaming Frog can't handle a crawl of our entire site because it is too large and would crash your computer. DeepCrawl's reports weren't as in-depth and didn't have as much functionality as Botify

Lumar is great for what it does - tracking technical changes and opportunities for a site. It does so affordably as well. In my opinion it would be best compared to Screaming Frog as it does essentially the same thing but with less flexibility on the backend and a much cleaner UI that doesn't take as much learning. But also not quite as powerful and not as adjustable for your specific needs as Screaming Frog. So give and take!

• The price of the tool compared to the amount of time it saves me is a staggering number.
• With DeepCrawl I can leave no stone unturned, which helps establish Agency credibility with clients.
