Pretty decent and easy to use
Pretty decent product; easy to set up and easy to use. The centralised billing makes things a lot simpler. Definitely a superior product to AWS' own Elasticsearch offering, especially with in-built auth, monitoring and other tools.
Easy to spin up
Easy to use product that takes away a lot of the headaches around running your own Elastic Cluster but you do loose some flexibility.
A great search engine.
What do you like best about the product?
We have introduced Swiftype on around two dozen of our web properties and preferred the authoritative offices. Nobody in my organization had any past involvement with including a custom internet searcher and with Swiftype we were fully operational in 24 hours.
What do you dislike about the product?
Given that making the right arrangement of list items is the essential capacity of this sort of item, this defect implies that Swiftype is unusable. Overall its great products.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the wake of investigating Swiftype versus another apparatus, this one emerged in light of the more powerful highlights with result positioning. We were likewise ready to accomplish something we didn't set out to fix, which was the longing to have a "related substance" bar at the base of all our blog entries.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its really great engine to search up. I highly recommend.
great tool
What do you like best about the product?
full text search, statistical info on words, n-grams, bag of words occurrences, speed
What do you dislike about the product?
some feature like term vectors is limited at each node, so each node of your cluster has his own statistics.
if i delete, update a document statistics don' t change.

i am building a Search Engine
It was easy to use however memory and disk space were limited
We used the service to deal with our data was easy. But the server provided restricted disk space and memory in reasonable price. We still expect to open machine learning and other statistics function in the future.
Easy to configure & use
We compared a few competing options, and finally decided to use managed Elastic clusters on AWS. One of the main factors that influenced our decision was access to the latest version, and ability to easily configure, upgrade and scale. Centralized billing through AWS was a plus.
On the other hand, there didn't seem to be a way to view/upgrade the license to get access to more features Eg:- Machine Learning. Pricing was also on the higher side, would prefer it to be lower.
Fair
AWS offering is a great place to start experimenting the elastic stack before moving it to an on-prem solution. The main costly aspect of using the cloud solution would be storage.
Easy to use
Easy to configure and easy to use.
To build an elasticserach cluster very quickly and focus on the real work.
Need Machine Learning to get 5 stars :)
Bringing the most relevant content to the right audience
What do you like best about the product?
Excellent search solution that helps you to quickly connect your most relevant content to customers. The iOS and Android apps make it even easier to manage content and stay productive on the go. The result ranking tool is extremely useful, and support is second to none.
What do you dislike about the product?
More of the synonym features would be great without having to jump up to such a great cost, but overall it is worth it for a site with a lot of content.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to pull multiple search results from more than one source, allowing for greater, more customisable and relevant search results.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Utilise the Support Team if you have any questions as they are so helpful and knowledgeable.
A fast and reliable search software
What do you like best about the product?
Very reliable, flexible and quite fast search software.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main API language of Elastic is JSON-formed. This is very non-intuitive, hard to write manually, very hard to remember the quirks of the syntax in various types of queries.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Searching and filtering in a large corpus of transcripts. Collecting some basic statistics.
