Does SEOMOZ bot not know where to look for AJAX site snapshots?

Not being web developers on the help team, I'm hesitant diving into the code and tell you what's wrong here. Running some quick searches on Google though, it does look like there may be something wrong with the site setup. I'd really recommend reviewing the article I linked to above. It's a little old but the material is still relevant.
Once everything is corrected, Roger still may not be able to read the content. The workaround presented above was to show a potential solution but it isn't a guaranteed fix since he does have issues understanding AJAX in general.

I definitely understand how frustrating this can be and wish I could do more to help. Hopefully someone in the community will be able to dive in a bit more on the technical web dev side of things.

We are already using pushstate on supported browsers via angularjs ui.router library, which is why you see clean URL on our site without #! notation...

Hi there,
This question is a bit intricate.
With AJAX content like this, I know Google's full specifications: https://developers.google.com/webmasters/ajax-crawling/docs/specification indicate that the #! and ?escaped_fragment= technique works for their crawlers. However, Roger is a bit picky and isn't robust enough yet to use only the sitemap as the reference in this case. Luckily, one of our wonderful users came up with a solution using pushState() method.

I can't answer the question exactly, but I did notice that if you go to the url directly, the content displays properly but returns a 404 error. That may cause issues. It doesn't appear to be affecting Google's crawl but I could see it messing up Moz's crawler, especially because I'm fairly positive that Bing doesn't handle ajax properly.

Moz bot has trouble crawling Angular JS - I believe it's seeing the SPA (Single Page Application) before Universal. Anyone else have this issue? What is the fix?
The Moz bot user agent detection settings are able to read Universal, but the Single Page Application (SPA) version partially loads on the website before Universal. Because of this, Moz (and possibly search engines) think we have massive duplicate content issues. For example, the crawl report said a particular product page (which has about 1,000 words) has 33,000 words and has duplicate content with over 300 other pages. This makes me believe it's only picking up the SPA version. Has anyone come across this, and what would be the fix?

Site crawl only shows homepage
Hi everyone, A client of us has a quite new website with a lot of URLs. (Google Search Console indicates around 5300.) However, when I execute a site crawl with screaming frog, or a crawl test in MOZ, it only shows me one URL, the homepage. Does somebody have an idea why the other pages of the website are not showing up? Thanks,

Is Moz Bot Broken?
Moz Bot says I have millions of issues with duplicate content. One item says that it has over 50 duplicates! I downloaded the CSV it gave me to look into it. All of my products have many different ways to get them, so I've set up rel=canonicals for the master one. So, I'd assume Mozbot would ignore those. But the interesting thing I've found is that of these 50 duplicates, some of them (on the same CSV I downloaded) are completely different products, with completely different URL's. and completely different titles and completely different meta descriptions and completely different product descriptions. So, 3 questions: Is Moz bot broken? Does it not recognize canonicals? Why is it seeing 3 very different products as exactly the same product? I'm so confused and since I work for a national company, the only way I can give actual examples is through a private message session. I guess I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this issue? Because I'm completely baffled.
