The service cannot be used.

.

They lie. Сonstantly and everywhere.

  1. Guarantee stable operation, especially paid tariffs, but we did not see stability for half a month of use.
  2. They say that they count only SUCCESSFUL requests, but even taking into account ALL UNSUCCESSFUL figures in the personal account and our statistics in the database do not match. (our statistics need to be multiplied by 10-15 to make it look like theirs.)
  3. They say that all requests are unique and each time a new locale is selected, but we had to write a mixer ourselves so that each request was REALLY unique.

.

And most importantly, they do not provide those services for which people pay money.

Unlimited Support - HAHAHAHAHAHA. NO ONE RESPONDED TO LETTER.

JavaScript Rendering - for 18 days this function "worked" and did not cause an error 20-25% of the total number of requests.

"An amazing coincidence" - most of the time the service is not available just during business hours in Europe (that is, when needed)

Concurrent Requests - the functionality of this feature raises questions. But often (rarely than JavaScript Rendering) enabling this function also causes a global error. (only during office hours again, what a coincidence)

1.000.000 Requests - I already wrote above, they do not count requests, they have their own "mathematics"

Premium Proxies - not updated list of 20+ proxies, a couple of which 100% return a global (zero) error

.

Now we are doing a refund, as the services were not provided.

To everyone who is looking for a ready-made service for their needs - if stability is important to you, NEVER use APILayer services.

Thanks for sharing this. I had some initial concerns when I saw some parts of the site were updated. Were you able to find a more reliable alternative?
