What the reviews say

The scraper saves time but is costly and often fails to return complete data, enforces strict comment limits, has unclear documentation, and provides little explanation or support.

What it costs0 praised · 6 complained6very high cost, poor value for moneyreplies require paying for premium account“DO NOT PURCHASE PREMIUM FOR ACCES FOR THIS TOOL. I paid for premium and it still didn't pull all comments and replies. If you want all comment and replies use "Instagram Comments, Replies and Subscribers Scraper (No Cookie)" by Data Doping. Its the only one that I found that actually worked. Cheers.” — 1/5
Caps and ceilings0 praised · 5 complained5strict cap around fifteen comments returned“I can only get a few comments per post, when even I specified the exact limit of comments per post. And no I have checked the posts they have hundreds plus comments but I only get 6-7 comments, which is extremely bad. so please fix you this issue.” — 1/5
Setup and docs0 praised · 2 complained2documentation is unclear and unhelpfultool often rejects valid post links“Does the job overall, but with some rough edges. Results are usable, though I hit occasional slowdowns and the documentation could be clearer. Decent value - just not outstanding.” — 3/5
Does it return everything0 praised · 2 complained2misses comments and nested repliesdoes not extract or enumerate likes“Unsure why including replies requires a paid account, this is a key feature for me to test with before committing to a paid subscription. This also does not enumerate the likes (who made each like to a comment), just gives a count, which is not helpful for a use case of creating a complete record of a post.” — 2/5

Does the publisher answer0 praised · 1 complained1offers no explanation for failures“It is not giving me more comments than what I can scrape on my own. For a single post, I asked for 100 comments and it gave me only 15. No reason given as to why this isn't working.” — 2/5
