Review by a Growth Engineer

My verdict: an absolute MUST-HAVE, free and magic when it works.

An absolute MUST-HAVE. It's free, you scrape in one click. It doesn't work everywhere (complex sites), but when it works, the simplicity is incredible.

It automatically detects tables and lists. For hassle-free occasional scraping, it's the extension to have installed.

What I like less: it doesn't work on complex sites (SPA, infinite scroll, anti-bot protection). And no automation possible.

My advice: install it now, it's free and takes 30 seconds. You'll use it more often than you think.

The detailed verdict

Do I really need this?

It's an absolute MUST-HAVE. The extension must be installed on every ops/growth profile's browser. Even if you use more powerful tools, Instant Data Scraper is there for quick wins.

I use it several times a week.

Does it play nice with my stack?

Export is in CSV or Excel — that's it. No direct integration with other tools, no API, no automation.

It's a standalone tool for occasional scraping, not for automated workflows.

Is it easy to pick up?

Impossible to make it simpler. You install the extension, you go to a page with data, you click, you export. Zero learning curve.

It works or it doesn't — when it works, it's magic.

Is the UX any good?

The UX is perfect for what it is. You click on the icon, the extension detects the data, you export. Three clicks maximum. No configuration, no account.

It's no-brainer scraping.

Is it worth it?

It's free. Impossible to do better in value for money. Zero cost for a tool that saves hours.

No competitor can rival on this point.

What I like

  • A free must-have that every Ops or Growth profile should have
  • Perfect for one-click occasional scraping without any configuration
  • Quick extraction of tables and lists is magic when it works

What I like less

  • Doesn't work on complex sites like SPAs or finicky infinite scroll
  • No automation or scheduling possible
  • Sites protected against scraping block the tool
