An alternative to Price2Spy

Price2Spy is an extensive tool with lots of reports, and you start a free trial on your own. Three things to watch for: you add your competitors’ URLs product by product, you report failed price checks to their team, and changing prices is a separate, paid module. Below, point by point, is how priceq does it.

14 days free, on 100 products and 3 competitor shops. No credit card.

Example shop, example data

priceq: one address per competitor.

You connect your shop and add a competitor once. priceq finds their product pages itself, by EAN and then by part number and brand. Doubtful matches go to a review queue with the reason next to each. Press Measure now and you have prices straight away.

Price2Spy: URLs per product.

For each product you add the URL of every competitor, one at a time or with an import. Or their team finds them: in the trial the first 300 searches (one product on one site) are free, after that by quote. Automatic searching per competitor is also possible, for a setup fee of $300 to $600 per site plus a monthly fee. The price depends on the number of URLs and sites you track.

priceq pauses dead links itself

priceq: a dead link pauses on its own.

If a product page stops returning a price, priceq pauses that link itself and shows since when. One click checks it again. If you decide a competitor does not carry a product, priceq remembers that.

Price2Spy: dead links are switched off, you report the rest.

Price2Spy switches off a link that returns a 404 itself. You report other failed price checks to their team, for example when a page does not load or is not recognised. Monthly maintenance by their team costs extra.

3Prices in your shop

Price proposals included in your plan

priceq: from Business up, with no separate module.

Before you save a strategy, you see how many prices change and what difference that makes in euros. In the first week you approve every change yourself. After that it goes to Shopify, WooCommerce or Magento 2 automatically, and priceq reads every price back.

How many competitors can I track?

Does priceq work with Shopware or BigCommerce?

No, not with a direct connection. You connect Shopify, WooCommerce and Magento 2 yourself. For other shops, use a CSV or Excel file, or the priceq API, which comes with every plan.

Can I bring my URL list from Price2Spy?

You do not need to. You add one address per competitor, and priceq finds the product pages itself.
