Desktop crawler that still sets the standard

What Screaming Frog is
Screaming Frog crawls a site from your own desktop rather than a server, checking against more than three hundred technical issues, rendering JavaScript through an embedded Chromium, and pulling in Analytics, Search Console and PageSpeed data alongside the crawl. How large a site it can handle depends on the machine's memory. The free version stops at 500 URLs, and licences are annual rather than perpetual — they expire after a year.
