Excellent Customer Support, pricing, and flexibility

  • September 09, 2020

What do you like best about the product?
Algolia’s customer support responds quickly. They would do their best to remedy the issue or find a workaround.
They would even create simulations for you to demonstrate before implementing the custom change.
The pricing works for start up like our that have low resources. We are not an eCommerce site. We just needed Aloglia for users to search from our list of universities.
Their dashboard is easy to navigate. Their custom features and documentation is easy to understand.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there was support for more languages and support for features that caters to searching in a foreign language.
For example some Taiwanese users uses phonetics characters Algolia can't understand this language leading to no search results.
It doesn't let you test based on the geo location of hypothetical user. Our search is optimized for geo location. So a user in China enters "University" then "University of china" would appear instead of "university of england" where I am based. It would be great if we can enter the hypothetical geo location
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We don't have to build our own search engine. The service is affordable and the performance is good enough for our users.
We currently have no research result of 3% this use to be 7% . There Analytics reports provided by Algolia helped me minimize no search outcomes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Always compare their support performance with others. Excellent support is essential. According to our developers it was very easy to implement but do check with your developers if it fits your database system.

Algolia is a best for searches on e-commerce websites.

  • September 02, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to set up, no maintenance needed from our side. Efficient and easy to adapt a ranking formula. Extremely fast search results. We tried to implement on iconscout.com. Here is a sample link: https://iconscout-search.netlify.app
Algolia is brain-dead simple to set up. I've implemented a search with Algolia in a dozen different ways now, and it never took me longer than a few minutes to get the functionality I want. With Algolia, the only challenge is designing your search UI -- if you don't want to use they are baked in UI solutions.
What do you dislike about the product?
Costs can escalate dramatically when you expand your traffic. Manually manipulating search results (for specific queries having listings show up first) is a bit difficult to do without custom developing that functionality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Any consumer-facing business that needs instant search results for user searches. Excellent fits would be e-commerce solutions and marketplaces. If your traffic is low it is also a relatively cost-effective solution than using your own solution (e.g. elastic search). Perfect for teams that do not have the architectural knowledge to set up their own search solutions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's less appropriate if you can't afford your data being persisted on a cloud service. Also, if the search is a key component of your business I don't believe relying on a third-party service is worth it. Deploying your own Elasticsearch cluster is not that hard of an endeavor and would also save you money.
However, for any other use case, Algolia will save you a lot of time and give your business amazing full-text search capabilities with minimum friction and time.

Algolia powers all of our search functionality on our browse page and from the header across the site. Specifically, we use the react instant search package with a custom hierarchical menu for category selection and react locations for location selection and the default pagination. We also use Algolia for our search auto-suggestions and recommendations. We also use Algolia to solve interesting business problems and tasks such as categorizing user-generated item titles.
