Are there any Kimonolabs alternatives?
Question: Recently kimonolabs announced they will be shutting down which is a major let
down as my app heavily relies on this service in terms of getting data. It's
really dissapointing that they're just shutting this service. I've been using
import.io in the mean time but it's no where near the standard of kimono and
is missing some features.

I was wondering if there are any services that are similar to kimono that have
the following features:

  * Scheduled crawls i.e. schedule a crawl every 24 hours or Alternatively you can call a link to update the latest data for a crawl.
  * Bulk or single url crawls i.e. Enter a list or a single url to scrape.
  * Call a link to get the results from the crawl in JSON.
  * Use a single api key to make a call for the api.
  * It's free for most of these features.

Alternatively i may be tempted to create my own it's just that i don't want to
increase my dev time learning Node.js or Python which is why i'm asking this
question.


Answer: If you are looking for desktop app, Data Scraping Studio has the same plus
more feature as in Kimono. Or you may install it on a windows server to make
your own Kimono++
