Which one is for you
Pick Netpeak Software if
- Fits if you'd rather own a desktop crawler than rent a web suite, with lifetime licences from $496
- Works for checking hundreds of domains against Ahrefs or Moz metrics at once
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need rank tracking or keyword research, which none of the apps does
- Not for you if you're on a Mac and need Checker, as it runs on Windows only
- Tight if you want several apps, since each is bought separately and bundles are yearly only
- Watch out: Limonity Backlinks only watches links you add; it doesn't find new backlinks
- Pricey if you want Limonity On-Page, at $99 a month per user, and there's no web or phone version
Pick URL Profiler if
- Fits if you audit long backlink lists for a penalty clean-up
- Works for building a content inventory of a site in one spreadsheet
Look elsewhere if
- Watch out: its pages still list PageRank, Alexa and Google+, and the newest update post is from November 2019
- Not for you if you don't have Moz, Majestic or Ahrefs API access, which the link metrics need
- Tight if you're on Solo, with 1 desktop device and 5,000 URLs per import
- Skip it if your computer is short on memory, as it needs 3 GB free and most desktops manage 50,000 to 100,000 URLs a run

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
