What do you dislike about the product?
- Analytics are a tricky thing to do and don't work right out of the box.
- Developer documentation isn't 100% complete and synced across sources so some things have to be inferred.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a quick and easy way to launch a search feature for our customers and brokers, since using Algolia we have been able to iterate in the feature with reduced development time and able to change it easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely it's worth to try out. Plans offers a nice chance for prototyping and mid-scale platforms, time saved by developers is one of the top advantages
The fastest and easiest to setup search platform.
What do you like best about the product?
We decided we needed search on our site. Within a few minutes we had a demo account within Algolia, and instantly wrapped our heads around the interface. A few hours later we had our entire dataset within Algolia, and minutes later were hitting the API with search results. Since setting up Algolia, we have hardly had to modify any search settings. It has worked flawlessly for almost two years for us. We are actively showing the technology off to other product teams, as it drastic reduced our cost to build our product out. Our search is so effective, it is typically one of the first things other teams notice when checking out our product. They asked how we did the impossible. The answer, focus on our core competencies, and trust the experts at their competencies. Algolia is simply the best, at a fair price.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much. We have had a few minutes of downtime in almost two years. When it happened the monitors at Algolia did not detect the outage. After emailing the CEO, he was quick to respond. The technical teams were quick to resolve, and due to our outreach, were able to fix the monitors. Downtime is expected for any SaaS service. What is important is that it is reasonable, and how they respond. For that, they did a amazing job.n
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to create a medication search, that is faster than our competitors. It is a more notable feature when other development teams investigate our site. i have done over a dozen technical demos from other teams doing outreach due to the speed and user experience.
We even rendered 28,000 pages based on data we store in Algolia. In other words, we use Algolia as part of our content management strategy, due to how fast and effective it is.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at all. The only thing may be the price for people outside US. I live in Brazil and the exchange hates are 4-1.

Near real time search, sales dashboard
Recommendations to others considering the product:

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For search products in my site
Great product
What do you like best about the product?
Easy setup. Great and clean documentation. Easy to use react components. Really nice management dashboard.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really. It meets our business demands completely.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In app User base search
Fast and Accurate
What do you like best about the product?
I'm impressed with Algolia's search speed when entering product information. We have several thousand products and the search engine responds almost simultaneously as our customers type characters.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost is a little high. The pricing tiers are nice but the thresholds are set too low. Currently, our website is for niche products. I could see it getting quite expensive on more popular websites.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our customers can find what they're looking for easily and quickly. I think a responsive website translates to a higher level of professionalism and ultimately trust in our products. Showing the product image and displaying the price also improves our customers experience. One of the intangible benefits from this is it reduces calls to our customer service.
Finally, it's helpful to know which products our customers search for the most. We pay close attention to what our users look for so that we can focus on those products specifically. In many cases where a customer didn't purchase our product after searching, we found that the image or text on the product was confusing or incomplete. We have had several instances where, after improving the product description or image, sales on their product increased.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
The better your product images and descriptions, the more valuable Algolia becomes. It is definitely an ongoing process for us. It is important to monitor the Algolia search results to in effect let your customers drive where improvements should occur.
Simple to use but very powerful platform search
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Algolia is that it's very easy to set up and get running. Using Zendesk's connector, we were able to configure instant search on our knowledge base very quickly. Also, the added analytics on what people are searching for when they come to our site has helped us think about content gaps in our help documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lingo around the app was the only real learning curve I had to overcome. Knowing the difference between records and operations and indices, etc., was a little head scratching at first. But when you understand, the platform makes a lot more sense.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've made it a lot easier for users to find content in our help resources. We want people to find answers quickly so they can get back to using our application and solving problems, so the more we can do to improve the search experience, the better.
Easy, fast and powerful
What do you like best about the product?
The easy-to-go API and the Synonyms Dictionary changed everything. Our product became much more powerful after these two features.
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation can't be a paradise. We lost some time trying to implement the widgets with out application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a database with many levels of data. With Algolia, we solve the problem of returning the right match in minutes, providing to our users the best results, in real time.
Easy configuration. Full search engine power.
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to setup and personalize. From the start, all you've got to do is setup algolia with the keys from your project and configure the index to use from your app (We use Algolia with PHP - Laravel).
One of the most useful settings available are the synonyms, that enable you to configure similar words to show relevant user the correct results.
This helps our customers to find: Tegucigalpa, as Tegu, or TGU or tegusigalpa.

After using Algolia after 6 months we haven't found anything wrong with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Algolia to help our customers find exactly what they need, with ease. The response is incredible fast and the analytics is amazing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it, you've got nothing to lose. They have a free version that you can use to test every API you have. And the configuration is simple (Right now we are using it with PHP - Laravel)
The new standard in search
What do you like best about the product?
Relevancy out of the box, fast response times, easy administration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Planning billing based on index ops, some extra work required to minimize spend while keeping lots of data up to date.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Searching a large product catalog based on text relevancy and other factors. From loading data to getting results is very fast. Using instantsearch.js makes front-end dev as easy as it could be.
