Reviews of Lumar
The most in depth website crawling and monitoring tool available
Comments: Overall, Lumar is a premium website audit experience. Everything looks and feels appealing. All the metrics that are produced in a report are well sign posted and explained, making it easy for new SEO's to understand what information they have.
Pros:
The best thing about Lumar is how it visually presents the results of crawls, the dashboard is so much clearer than a excel export offered by other crawlers. Its also excellent at prioritising these tasks visually.
Cons:
It can be slow to crawl, its in depth and will be very likely to catch every errant URL, so that pace is warranted.
Lumar review
Comments: Positive and the customer service team are always very responsive if you need them
Pros:
The ability to set daily or weekly crawls across a website with multiple projects for different areas of interest. Plus the ability to set tasks for team members to address
Cons:
Overall I think it's a solid product for the price, which is very competitive compared to others.
Lumar review
Comments: We use it as a weekly reporting tool. We use another tool for any daily tasks where we don't have to keep an eye on credit usage
Pros:
Self intuitive tool to use, helpful insights, easy to share insights and assign tasks
Cons:
Need to watch and manage your credit usage
Alternatives Considered:
Went from Market Leader to ....
Comments: It was ok for monitoring the sites, but for many sites the cost of credits was challenging to calculate and we could only crawl once a month.
Pros:
It was the crawler of choice by the industry for many years, but since the updates have come to other competitors it simply didn't stand up anymore - the User Experience in comparison with OnCrawl and Botify wasn't quite there
Cons:
The contract - when we tried to leave them they found a clause in the contract which was signed by another team before my time, and they tried to force us to stay with them for another year.
Alternatives Considered:
Great crawl tool for large sites
Pros:
Deepcrawl is a great cloud based crawl tool for large sites. Much better value alternative than some of the enterprise tools. Good UX and feature set.
Cons:
There isn’t a log crawl tool that integrates with our stack.
