What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When Google dropped support for Custom Search Engine's in the private sector, Box Clever was looking for a solution to get our clients ad free search without having to build our own index. Swiftype Site Search was able to accommodate that with ease. They even worked with use to build out a special pricing plan to fit our Volume needs.

Get a demo of the product, or trial run. Don't be afraid to ask for changes to plans if they don't fit your needs out of the box.
Seamless transition from now-defunct Google Search Engine
What do you like best about the product?
We love being able to drag and drop the page order displayed for a particular search. Before Swiftype, someone searching "cloud" on our site might see a blog post about the cloud before seeing a cloud service product page. That's a big deal.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our business relationship with Swiftype has been a series of pleasant surprises since day one. No complaints.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were in a time crunch with Google sunsetting its search appliance, and we needed a replacement by August. We checked out all the major search players, but Swiftype was the only company with the features we cared about: usability for techies and non-techies, search engine customization (design, features), and a cost similar to what we paid at Google.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do you want your website's search functionality to work? Use Swiftype.

Swiftype was the answer to our needs!
What do you like best about the product?
Customer service is outstanding; implementing Swiftype on our site with its API was very helpful; the analytics and ability to configure our site search engine is outstanding!
What do you dislike about the product?
A couple of Swiftype features could not be used because we are using their API, but very minor stuff.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Google Search did not renew our site license (and many others), and so we needed a site search alternative quickly. Swiftype was the answer!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
No cost to try Swiftype on a trial basis.
Could be better
What do you like best about the product?
Auto complete search feature is great for user experience. Easy to implement
What do you dislike about the product?
The search result doesn't use meta tag or info from Yoast SEO(wordpress site). Google search result does. Especially for landing pages, archive pages, the description could become a mess with copy from the body.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Stop using google search embed. Able to search for different sites or combine sites
X-pack functionality is a game-changer
Being able to use X-pack functionalities like security, monitoring and alerting has made it much easier for us to secure and optimize our elasticsearch experience. Role-based access control (RBAC) that is part of X-pack security was an essential part of our decision to move to Elastic Cloud.
Custom Search Made Easy
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of setup was the best part. Added my URLs, configured the search box and placed it on the site. We had search on our enterprise website running Adobe AEM with less than a day's worth of development and testing.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see the ability to inject third party results and content into the system. Not only spidering my content, but adding custom content more easily.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were looking for a custom white label search provider to take over site search across multiple domains. We were initially going to google site search search appliance, but that program is being shut down. SwiftType was much better and easier to integrate than any other solution we tested.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely do the trial. The 14-day trial implemented on our live site made us a believer that this was the right choice for us.
Swiftype Site Search Review
What do you like best about the product?
Coming across Swiftype at the beginning of learning how to code made the fact that it was easy to get up and running my favorite part.
What do you dislike about the product?
Non-tech related, I do feel that the cost per month, for our site, is a little steep.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to see what people are searching for helps us to make sure we are focusing on the correct content to engage our users.
