#1: Ready-to-Use  Companies can opt to use premade web scraping templates for sites like Amazon, Kayak, and CrunchBase. All you need to do is choose your target site, decide what target data you are looking for (say competitor ‘vacation packages’), and have the information delivered to your inbox.  #2: Independently built  Some companies choose to build web scrapers internally. This typically requires: Dedicated IT and DevOps teams, and engineers Appropriate hardware and software including servers to host data request routing This is the most time-consuming, and resource heavy option.  #3: Data retrieval without web scraping Many businesses don’t realize that it is possible to directly purchase Datasets without ever having to run a collection job. These are data points that many companies in a given field need access to and therefore split the cost of collecting it and keeping it up-to-date. The benefits here include zero time spent on data collection, no infrastructure and immediate access to data.
