What is data harvesting?

Web data harvesting is the process of obtaining large amounts of data from the internet without needing a human to find it all manually. For example, a company could easily keep track of competitors' pricing by using a data harvesting program. Otherwise, an employee would need to go to each product page on each competitor's site to find the price of every item.

What does Mozenda do?

Mozenda adds a simple, intuitive interface to the capabilities of a data harvesting program, making it easy for anyone to use. Mozenda uses a point-and-click interface, so all the user needs to do is click on the data he or she wants to gather. From there, the program can find the same kind of data on similar pages, check for changes to the data automatically or export the data to another program. Mozenda also uses cloud computing, which means that it can process a lot of data even if the user does not have an exceptionally powerful computer. These features make Mozenda ideal for small companies that want to do serious data collection but do not want the hassle and expense of a dedicated, technically trained employee and heavy-duty computing equipment.

Mozenda is a web data harvesting program aimed at small businesses that want a simple data collecting process. It has an intuitive interface that allows anyone to automate the data collection process.
