Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Firecrawl has been an absolute game-changer for my web scraping projects. As someone who just started integrating it with n8n, I was impressed by how seamless the setup process was. The ability to scrape clean, structured data from websites in various formats like JSON, Markdown, and even screenshots has been incredibly helpful. The integration with dynamic content is one of its standout features – it handles JavaScript and SPAs effortlessly, which makes the process smoother than I expected. Additionally, the robust API and zero-config setup mean I don’t have to worry about complex configurations like rotating proxies or rate limits.

Cons

  • While the tool is extremely powerful, I did notice that some advanced features, such as crawling a large number of pages concurrently, can be a bit slow with the lower-tier plans. It would be nice to see even more flexibility in this area, but for most users, the free plan and lower-tier options are more than sufficient.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Provides answers with citations, along with source links. Acknowledges when there are disagreeing perspectives and cites both sides.
  • Web search better than Google. Copilot help with searches. Usage of multiple models like GPT4. CLAUDE. GEMINI (GOOGLE)... Easy to organize your searches. Image generation integrated. Video search integrated. Academic search integrated. Youtube only search integrated. Reddit only search integrated.
  • Really good for getting any kind of information summarized or in any other text format, with all sources for you to check if you question the answers. Better for personal use then ChatGPT.

Cons

  • Prone to factual errors. I have found this on numerous occasions by following up on the citations provided. An example: What were Dodi Fayed’s injuries? Answer says that he had a rarely-seen tear in a pulmonary vein. Checking the source cited, it is stated clearly that this was the injury sustained by Princess Diana, NOT her companion. A simple, obvious factual error like this makes me unwilling to rely on Perplexity yet.
  • Probably uses your data on searches for their training. Problems with the usage between online search and just talking with a specific LLM on a single thread (search). They probably don't care about old users as of now, basically cuz they been giving away free PP pro these lasts months.
  • It seems to learn what language I most often use. I would rather it gave me answers in the language as ask the question so I do not need to specify all other languages then my first.
