LuisArturo (Clay) My client wants to filter companies by company size before enrichment, so that only relevant ones get enriched. Currently I've hard-coded formulas to achieve this. But the client wants it to be dynamic so he can easily update the size criteria himself in the future, without touching any code or without developer intervention.
So, due to this any many other limitations in Clay, I'm having trouble satisfying my client who wants a complete automated Apify + Clay lead generation system.
Another issue we’ve faced is the “Time out” error. When running an Apify Actor via Clay for larger runs. Clay times out before the Apify scraper finishes, even if Apify completes successfully later. And, there's currently no way to increase this time out duration on Clay. This forces the client to manually import results, defeating the point of automation.
Honestly, for the price Clay charges, the lack of flexibility and limitations are hard to justify. I hope you can escalate this feedback to the owners and developers.
Thank you.
