Review

This is official description

Visual Web Ripper is a powerful web page scraper used to easily extract website data, such as product catalogues, classifieds, financial web sites or any other web site that contains information you may be interested in.

Manual content extraction from web sites can be very time consuming and is often not feasible at all if you want to extract complete content structures such as product catalogues.Sequentums web content grabber makes this process very easy and fully automated.

Visual Web Ripper runs as a Windows service that can extract website data on a scheduled basis, so your collected content will always be up-to-date. For example, you could extract currency rates from a website on a daily basis and always have up-to-date currency rates in your database. Visual Web Ripper is very easy to use because of the visual designer that allows users to extract website data by simply clicking on the content elements they want to extract. The visual designer, data collector and scheduler combine into a very powerful ready-to-use application, but you can take things a step further and obtain complete control of the application by using the programming API.
 
The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 2.6

When we try to export the information of a web page, we usually copy the block of the desired information into a word processor by using copy/paste. But this procedure has many disadvantages; the information is difficult to manipulate because it is imported in the web page format, with hyperlinks, size, fonts, etc., all mixed inside tables. With Visual Web Ripper you can avoid these problems. First of all, you can open the desired web page from the Visual Web Ripper main window. This allows you to explore the web page content and choose only the information you wish to extract. You can extract not only text and images, but also capture HMTL content, tags, files, links, and attributes. Before capturing the information, you have to create a project selecting the elements to capture. The information of the element that is going to be captured as content or HTML code is displayed in the upper center of the screen. You can use templates to extract blocks of information of the same type. After you have selected all the elements to capture, you can save the extracted data in many different formats: XML, SQL Server, MySQL, OleDb, CSV, and Excel XML. Finally, to begin extracting the data you have to run the project. You can choose the "view browsing" option to visualize how the program navigates on the webpage and extracts the information.
  • It allows you to capture text, html, tags, files, links, images, and attributes.
  • You can save the extracted data in many different formats.
  • Trial version can extract only a maximum of 100 web elements.
