Then the only thing I had to build myself was a web element filter. I would probably recommend using pyodbc as it works with SQL Server as well. I'm using python, and I chose peewee orm, but I also am using pyodbc. It succeeds in every place that Ubot fails.įor doing sql stuff, just find a decent ORM for whatever programming language you are using. Selenium does not have any of the issues that Ubot has, period. Considering that in order to get some features that Ubot Studio offers, you are paying close to/over $1000, there is really no reason not to check this out. This will give you pretty much all of Ubot Studio's features(plus thousands of others) for free, if you are using a programming language to run the automations. Selenium is a suite of tools designed to help you automate your web browser. Here is what I did to replace Ubot Studio.įirst, I got selenium and installed the python bindings. If I can "just run python code", why not use something like selenium and avoid the headache? When I approached their support staff about Ubot features that didn't work, I was told that I should "just run python code".Forum posts from as far back as 2013 show that this problem is likely to never be fixed since it hasn't been fixed in 3 years. There is no way to actually tell if the will work before-hand, and compiling the installer does not change this fact.

Compiled bots will either work on your windows machine, or they won't.If their servers are down you are shit out of luck.' They really don't want pirated copies getting out, so this is the only way to compile a bot, or even launch Ubot Studio. Ubot Media requires that you connect to their server when you compile a bot due to licensing issues.Like really slow, and not a lot gets done when updates do come out. There is 1 developer working on the entire suite last time I checked.Not being able to set all http headers means you don't really have socket control). Some features are missing sub-features that are required to make the original feature work(they offer http socket control, but you can't set custom headers for the requests.Not the worse thing in the world, but still really annoying, and the time adds up. Simple actions will lock up the program for a few seconds(copy, paste, clicking an ok button).

So if you might even try that before Ubot if you don't know how to program. And there is also botchief, which is free. Don't get me wrong, if you have never done any programming before, Ubot might be what you are looking for, but to anybody else it's a nightmare.
I don't recommend it, as there are plenty of tools out there that mimic the features of Ubot Studio, and they will work much better than Ubot. Just a warning to anybody out there considering Ubot Studio to build web crawlers. Hopefully by the end of this, I will be able to answer the question, "Is ubot worth the money?". Edit 12/28/16: I have been working on a framework for replacing UBot Studio.
