Octopus Data

Here is Octopus Data in plain terms. Octoparse is a web scraping tool company. In practice that means building software for you when nothing off the shelf fits.

The natural audience is companies with a specific process to automate. As a mid-sized company team themselves (51 to 200 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best.

Octopus Data is based in Walnut Creek, California. Their site is octoparse.com.

If you have worked with Octopus Data, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
