Two alternatives:

Headless Chrome with Puppeteer: https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer

Firefox-based Slimer.js: https://github.com/laurentj/slimerjs (same API as Phantom which is useful if using a higher level library like http://casperjs.org/)

I maintain a puppeteer-as-a-service repo here: https://github.com/joelgriffith/browserless. It’s pretty feature rich at this point, allowing you to specify concurrency, sessions timeouts, and comes with a robust IDE (which you can play with here: https://chrome.browserless.io).

I’m working on building out a serverless model, which is the holy grail of headless workflows, but it’s a bit more challenging to operationalize than one would think.

I’m hoping that these efforts will lower the bar for folks wanting to get started with puppeteer and headless Chrome!

Browserless seems awesome. Thanks for sharing your project!
