🧩 G2 Products Scraper

Turn G2.com into a clean software database. Paste product URLs, category pages or search keywords and get each product's rating, review count, seller, pricing editions, categories, alternatives, comparisons and integrations as structured rows. No login, no coding, and you pay only for the products you get.

✨ Why use G2 Products Scraper?

• 📦 Full product records: rating, review count, 1–5 star split, description, seller, main category and every G2 category, pricing editions with price and billing unit, top alternatives, head-to-head comparisons, integrations, sub-products, screenshots and implementation time.
• 🗂️ Whole categories and searches: walk every page of a G2 category (/categories/crm) or a keyword search and get one row per product, in G2's own order, with position.
• 💬 What users say: category rows include G2's AI user-sentiment summary plus the top pro and top con topic with mention counts.
• 🔍 Filters that save money: skip products below a minimum rating or review count. Filtered products are not charged.
• 🔓 No account needed: only public G2 pages are read. The bot check is handled for you.
• 💸 Cheap: $4 per 1,000 full product records, $1 per 1,000 category or search rows.

💰 Pricing

Pay per result:

• $0.004 per full product record ($4 per 1,000). This covers product URLs, and listing products when Full details is on.
• $0.001 per category, search or alternatives row ($1 per 1,000) when Full details is off.

Platform usage (compute and residential proxy traffic) is billed on top and is small. In our test, 1,200 full product records took about 10 minutes and used 0.11 GB of residential traffic. Example: 1,000 full product records cost about $4 in results plus about $0.20 of usage. Products removed by your filters are not charged.

❓ FAQ

Is it legal to scrape G2? The actor reads only public pages that anyone can open without an account. It collects product information, not personal data. Check G2's terms and your local law for your use case.

Do I need a G2 account or my own proxy? No. No login is used. The residential proxy is preselected because G2 refuses most datacenter addresses.

How many products can I get? One per product URL. A category returns every product it lists (often hundreds), and a search returns about 1,500 unique products at most (G2 starts repeating results after roughly 80 pages; the run stops there and says so). Set Max products per category or search to the number you need.

Why is a field empty? G2 does not show every section for every product. For example, many products have no pricing editions, and implementation time or ROI appear only when enough reviewers answered.

Can I get reviews too? This actor collects product data. For individual reviews use a G2 reviews scraper.

Can I schedule it or use the API? Yes. Schedule runs in the console and read the dataset from the API, webhooks or integrations.

⚠️ Limits

• Vendor company details (headquarters, founding year, employee count, website) are no longer shown on G2's public product pages, so they are not returned.
• Detailed feature scores and contract prices are behind a G2 login and are not collected.
• The AI pros and cons embedded in G2 product pages come in mixed languages, so they are not returned; English top pro and con topics come from category rows (topPro, topCon).
• Integration names are taken as G2 shows them, sometimes shortened. The slug and url are always complete.
• One keyword search yields about 1,500 unique products at most. Use several keywords or category pages for more.
• G2 uses a bot check. The actor clears it automatically and retries with fresh connections. A product that still fails is reported in the log, and the run keeps going.
