Algolia Reviews & Product Details

I like how easy it was to integrate into our companies documentation site. Also being able to see the most searched works and which search results don't land any results is very helpful for updating our documentation site in the future.

It did take longer than expected to receive the API key, but when we finally did, we were really happy.

None, everything is running great so far.

The speed at which a search operation executes, along with all the linked aspects that broadens the concept of universal unified search in order to provide great User Experience! The product's landing page is one of the best I have seen to date since it clearly explains the search powers when clicked on the search bar on the homepage to get on the demo search portal in order to get hands-on experience with it. Simply put, Algolia is one of the best search experience providers that totally builds on and aims to provides one of the best user experiences out there when it come to search platforms/ tools or APIs.

I guess they should also have a WordPress plugin since WP is one of the most widely used CMS platforms. Adding a plugin to Wordpress library will help Algolia and most global users to expand the search experience using Algolia for any one's platform/ website or their product. Also, the product should provide an in-built search bar generator tool that can then be embedded on to any website at any section of the page which will be very helpful for non-coder or new users who aren't very friendly with the development environment. WYSIWYG editor or search bar generator and styling tool can help a lot in integrating to small scale static websites.

Personalized search experiences that converts, and provides unique experiences to drive engagement.

Easy to use API, with Algolia we are able to delegate all our resources to be indexed, which makes the performance of our application faster. This not only provides for developer experience but also the overall user experience of our end users.

Well, till now I am yet to run into something I don't enjoy with the Algolia API. The basic/free trial limits could be extended though.

We're building a fashion marketplace for emerging brands in Ghana, We were looking for a scalable and easy to use solution to provide a much more robust search for better user experience. Algolia checks all our boxes by providing an API very friendly for our engineers and also the performance of our product.

We are using algolia for our internal pilot admin. It allows us to search quickly between clients and partners and make effective actions thanks to the search algolia is powering.

The fact that Algolia doesn't support old frameworks, like angularJS, the one we are using. We still have legacy javascript available, but still, it's not the same :)

We've solved our filtering problems on our clients and partners. It was somehow slow when we developed it in-house, but using Algolia, it made our life easier.

The API to index data and the granularity on which we can allow users to search on.

Most of our clients want infinite scroll plus GeoSearch (click here for an example). The issue we have is that the map will render the result set differently depending on the position of the infinite scroll, ultimately not showing all the results available. For example: If I search and get 100 results and the hits per page is set to 50, the user will see the first 50 results on the map. Once the scroll position has loaded results 51-100, the map will only show results 51-100 and not show results 1-50. This confuses users. Some users find it confusing when the filtered item automatically goes to the top of the list when it is refined/filtered.

We solve complex search requirements for the complex commercial real estate industry. Users find the right properties using detailed search requirements.

Algolia search is awesome. We use this on our customer support website and its awesome. It helped our customers in numerous ways. The search is very powerful and quick.

I don't think there is any improvement we need in algolia search.

I like the speed of algolia search the most

it's a little bit expensive. Re-indexing the records is also an expensive operation.

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.

The simplicity of the service means you can basically throw any data at it and it'll handle everything for you.

I feel it gets expensive quite quickly (especially for smaller startups on a tight budget), but other than that the service is great

We needed a reliable and accurate search solution but none of us have experience building search platforms. algolia was an easy drop-in solution

The search is so fast and is able to return results as you type. The experience that I can create with Algolia is leagues above other search providers and super easy to implement.

The pricing structure is a bit confusing at first. When you ask for help it puts you into one of their sales funnels

It's allowed us to greatly improve our blog search functionality and performance. We can now also send URLs which preload the filters we've selected. This is great for our marketing team!

With Algolia, I could build an optimized search engine to look for real estates with many filters involved.

The learning curve is steep... it was difficult to learn the internals of InstantSearch

We provide an Algolia search engine to our clients, so they can look for the best home for them
