Very good experience. It's really fast in searching results. Really liked it
What do you like best about the product?
I like the speed of algolia search the most
What do you dislike about the product?
it's a little bit expensive. Re-indexing the records is also an expensive operation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I had issue with the search functionality at my website. Algolia is keeping good care of my website's search. Benefit of using algolia is that the users on my website can enjoy the fast search.
Great Search, tricky details
What do you like best about the product?
I love the fact that,at its premise, it's simply fast search over small JSON payloads.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting some of the finer details to work can be really tricky. The size limitations is a big sticking point, and breaking up larger objects into a single entity feels like something that should be managed within the SDK itself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using Algolia to build several geolocating websites, as well as a product support site for a database platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great product - make sure you pay close attention to the details of your implementation. The documentation could do a better job in some details but overall it's your friend, as is the support forums if you get stuck.
More focused search results, faster
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia represents a huge advance compared to our Ecommerce site's original search tool. It delivers much more refined and relevant search results nearly instantaneously, making the shopper's experience much more productive and enjoyable.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's so highly technical that I must involve our web developer to implement almost any tweak to search logic, other than some basic stuff I can accomplish on my own.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our original site search tool was based on simple word-search, so it would display any product whose description contained the searched word, rendering search results almost useless. In contrast, Algolia returns search results that are way more useful. Our next step will be to index our blog and FAQ pages, in addition to our products, since oftentimes our visitors are searching for help on a topic, not just for a product.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be prepared to invest time to ensure search results are appropriate and satisfactory.
Better .than elastic search

What do you like best about the product?
It allows up to offload our search infrastructure.

Great product, great support.

Product perfectly designed and awesome support team - very reactive and so efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Product is still quite technical to implement, but is very well made.

I wanted a search engine for the documentation of my open source software. I was perfect to manage search on different version of the documentation.
Easy tool to build search engines
What do you like best about the product?
With Algolia, I could build an optimized search engine to look for real estates with many filters involved.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is steep... it was difficult to learn the internals of InstantSearch
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We provide an Algolia search engine to our clients, so they can look for the best home for them

Incredibly fast search with great enterprise options
What do you like best about the product?
Incredibly fast search; fantastic developer support and documentation; some really great out of the box options as well
What do you dislike about the product?
Non tech users may have trouble customizing themselves without dev help beyond basic settings if they use a plug and play app (of which there are many for Algolia -- they work great and are well documented, but someone wanting to do a lot of customizations themselves without technical know how may require a developer).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have universal search experiences for our clients that pull in from multiple platforms like Zendesk, Shopify, WordPress, and more and work on both web and native mobile apps. Algolia delivers results insanely fast and makes developing all of these elements out easy and reliable.
Great Site Search technology!

API's are flexible and easy to implement. Service is excellent!
What do you dislike about the product?
It'd be nice to be able to setup multiple personalization strategies.

Decreasing no result searches and helping customers find products more easily.
Open source prject using Algolia, its decent but limited
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you guys support open source projects for free, very cool. was extrememly easy to integrate to docusaurus build, hence why we started using it. it works pretty good
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that i can only see the top couple of results. We have hundreds of documents and references. Users sometimes need to search google to get what they need out of our website.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping users find what documents to read based on keywords
Recommendations to others considering the product:
very easy to set up. limited search functinoality for large project
