What are AD Spy Tools?

There are many such tools available in the market, so it could be tricky to pick the right one. Therefore, we have rounded up the top five ad spy tools so that you can pick the right one according to your requirements.

Best Facebook Scraper Tools:

1. PowerAdSpy

 

First, on our list, we have PowerAdSpy. This Facebook scraper tool comes with a bulk load of features and an ad database, some might even call it the best Facebook ad spy tool, but I’ll let you guys decide that. 

PowerAdSpy provides you with 5,00,000+ ads, 2,000,000 advertisers, and more than 1 million-plus monthly updates, which in my opinion, is enough data to formulate a new campaign and marketing strategy and also to see which is the correct audience for your product. 

You can follow these steps to search for the most popular ads published by your competitors with the help of PowerAdSpy – 

1. Login/Signup to your PowerAdSpy account.

2. Once you are in, there will be a search bar on the left-hand side where you can search for ads with the help of a keyword.

3. Below the search bar, you’ll see the filter mode. Using these filters, you can search the ads based on location, interests, etc.

4. After all these steps, the ads that are most relevant to your search preferences will show on the dashboard.

Moving on to the pricing page, AdEspresso also has a trial option that lasts about 14 days in which you get access to all of their features. And the paid version starts at $49/month, but the features are limited, and the enterprise pack will cost you $259/month, which includes all the features.

3. MagicAdz 

MagicAdz is a good choice for you if you want to thoroughly analyze your competitor’s ad campaigns down to every last detail. This tool gives you a complete overview and insights with the help of their extensive ad database, which generally has millions of ads. In addition to that, it also provides worldwide ad coverage, which means you get ad scraped from over 50 countries.

MagicAdz also provides customized search options just like PowerAdSpy, with the help of which you can apply different filters in your search and only get the result which you desire.

Coming on to the pricing options, MagicAdz plans start from $99/month and go up to $749/month, for the most premium one. It does have a free trial version, but it lasts for one day only. Yes, their plans are costly, but it does have features to compensate for the price point. 

4. Adplexity

Adplexity is a little bit different as it is not just one tool, but it is a collection of multiple tools. They all do the same thing, which is spying on your competitor’s ads, but each one of them has their own pricing plans and uses. 

The modules that it offers are Desktop, Native, Mobile, Push, E-commerce, Carriers, and API. You can choose any one of them based on which platform ads you want to scrape from Facebook. 

Coming to the pricing options, Adplexity doesn’t have one single plan for all of their modules; they offer separate ones for each. The Mobile/Desktop/E-commerce module will cost you $199/month/user, and the Native/Push/Carriers module will cost you $149/month/user. 

Adplexity does provide different options to choose from, but it can also become a huge disadvantage for some people as for beginners or individuals who want an ad scraping tool. Plus, most people want a simple tool that works for them, not the other way around. But at the same time, this tool is exceptionally great for a person or an organization who are professionals and are looking for a diverse tool that can perform different tasks based on each platform. 

5. AdSpy

AdSpy provides you with a complete ad database from all over the world. This is a great tool for you if you are searching for an efficient way to track your competitor’s ads or ad campaigns. AdSpy has an ad database of 74.2 million ads and 12.7 million advertisers from 198 countries, which is just astonishing. 

Along with such an immense database, AdSpy also has tons of features like Ad search with filters, a huge database, affiliate marketing, etc. AdSpy does have a free trial option, but its monthly cost is $149/month, which is way more than what other tools are offering above, and if you compare the features they offer, the difference is substantial.
