## Reviews

### "Good scrapping tool" — 5.0/5

> **Mariam** | *31 December 2025* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about Lobstr is their customer service; they're always ready to help you quickly via chat.
> 
> **Cons**: Overall, it's a tool that works very well; it's just that in recent months there have been recurring problems with the integration with Sales Navigator.

> 
> **Cons**: Over all i have really enjoyed it\! I will say it can get a little expensive at times but overall great\!

### "An Essential Tool That Transformed My Workflow" — 5.0/5

> **Idan** | *07 May 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Lobstr is an absolute game-changer. The ease of use, speed, and precision with which it pulls tweets is simply outstanding. The platform saves me hours every week and helps me focus on what really matters—analyzing content instead of collecting it. The interface is clean, responsive, and feels built by people who really understand users' needs. I especially love the advanced filtering options and real-time responsiveness.
> 
> **Cons**: Honestly, nothing significant. Any minor limitations are far outweighed by the value it provides. If I had to mention something, maybe just wishing for even more integrations in the future—but that’s a sign of how much I want to use it everywhere.
> 
> My overall experience has been exceptional. Lobstr delivered exactly what I was looking for, and then some. Whether you're a researcher, content creator, or social media analyst, this tool will elevate your workflow. The support is great, the onboarding is fast, and the results speak for themselves.

### "Great scraping tool\!" — 5.0/5

> **Andrea** | *05 August 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about Lobstr was their excellent customer support. Whenever I had a question or issue, their support team responded quickly, professionally, and with clear guidance.
> 
> **Cons**: What I liked least about Lobstr is that the scraping speed can sometimes feel a bit slow, especially when working with larger datasets or more complex sources. While the tool is incredibly helpful and well-designed overall, a bit more efficiency in the scraping process would make it even more powerful. I understand that some of this depends on external site structures and limits, but any performance improvements in that area would really enhance the experience.

### "There's a reason every review here is 5 stars already" — 5.0/5

> **Zephram** | *28 March 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Their customer service is amazing. They're super helpful and work fast.
> 
> **Cons**: I have literally no complaints. I don't know what else I could expect of lobstr. They meet my needs and provide professional and quality service.
> 
> I've used lobstr for 2 months now and this is now my primary AI tool for scraping. It's versatile, the free version lets you learn how to use it effectively, and again the customer service is on point.
