Algolia Pricing Overview

- Easy-to-understand documentation - Easy to load data and try out various queries - Great UX on their console

- the analytics APIs were a bit slow - I would prefer to check what the estimated cost is based on current data on that index. When creating new replicas for the sorting feature

Algolia helps our users to search for specific data within our platform. We use it in multiple projects namely nft marketplace, searching streamers, videos and other media content

Easy to integrate and great search quality.

Nothing, product is great. Pricing is also fair.

Indexing documentation and expose search to our site

Simple and intuitive dashboard as well as super easy to start. I was able to get my search into production in minutes

Pricing can get out of hand if not careful.

Site wide search

Algolia provides a richer search experience and is easy to integrate and configure every aspect of it. You won’t find a competitor that beats the speed, ease of integration and support you receive easily our favorite SaaS out there.

Probably the Pricing model, which at times can be confusing due to search unit calculations and scale economy variations.

Search results mainly. Algolia makes a great job out of the box at correcting typos, synonyms and complex search terms. Another thing to point out is its great admin tool with speedy adoption times.

The simplicity (connection with Firebase), the documentation, and the UI / UX

The indications about the price. We don't know if we pay the records each month, we don't have a simulator in order to estimate the cost in production.

Problem solved: Auto completion search Benefit: Firebase doesn't have an efficient search (case sensitive etc), Algolia is perfectly solving it

I like Algolia because I do not even need a database to have a fast search service

Maybe the pricing, but it delivers a lot of value and has a quite robust free tier

Algolia powers our search functionality, and products recommendations as well. The implementation was quite easy and the service works ultra fast

Ease of use; incredible visual merchandising tools allow for a ton of flexibility; the speed and site performance is impeccable!

The pricing model is based on search traffic, so it's hard to give an off-the-cuff pricing estimate.

No-code daily operations for headless e-commerce.

Usually something easy isn't that powerful but Algolia is great at it. We use Algolia manually as a replacement for Zendesk help center search which is extremely limited in functionality. Through their YouTube channel and help docs I was able to get up and running without having to talk to their support team at all. It's also a nice modern interface. Search usually isn't that way and it's very technical. You can tell Algolia spent a lot of time making the front-end as user friendly as possible while still being able to dive deep into technical aspects. Pricing is great too for what you get.

The shortest interval for extracting articles from Zendesk is 6 hours, which is fine, but when you are in go mode making a ton of changes, it sucks to have to wait. Overall though that is extremely minor and I can't think of anything else to dislike.

We've completely replaced Zendesk help center search with the speedy algolia and have been able to use common industry term replacements to ensure articles are served correctly in case someone searches a less common industry term.
