An essential tool for search heavy sites and tools.
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia is incredibly fast to execute searches, often results return in just a few milliseconds. Setup was quite easy, even given the technical overhead involved, since the API and docs are clear and to the point. It has out of the box compatibility with VueJS which I love, so that is appreciated. The default widgets provided are easy to customize and it's not too hard to make your own when needed. There are plugins for Wordpress and other CMSs for those that use them.
I'd also counterpoint to anyone who mentions price as a negative. I would challenge anyone to show me they can even setup the raw infrastructure needed to run something like elastic search this fast, never mind the ongoing costs needed to maintain such a system.
Algolia can't be beat from a value standpoint right now in this space.

What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of date based filter widget maybe? I have no serious complaint against the product. Algolia has served all the needs I had for search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a small team and deploying real-time faceted search on complex sites is very difficult. Then to do is reliably with cross-platform compatibility and great speed, that's nearly impossible. Algolia makes this process trivial by comparison, with a few custom plugins we are able to setup user friendly search on all of our sites easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just take a look at how much Algolia is used in the open-source community for search docs, or asset library or packages (jsDelivr, Packagist).
Great product
What do you like best about the product?
The easy integration is the first thing attractive in Algolia, the comes the fast search the suggestion and other features
What do you dislike about the product?
The bad side of Algolia is that we can not use it promise, we need to use it as a SaaS and this is a privacy for some of our clients
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We tried to implement search our selves but it was really difficult, Algolia helped as a lot to implement search in our product
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We highly recommand it
Algolia is very fast and easy to integrate
What do you like best about the product?
I like best how fast Algolia is for all operations (search and indexing)
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't dislike a lot of things. Their React connectors could be a bit better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I give access to a huge database of soccer players
Fast search service, easy to use at very reasonable price
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use and plenty of SDKs are provided so there's is one for everyone. Setup and configuration are done through a clear dashboard which also offers great insights into search performance.
Search results are being delivered instantaneously. They're so fast that using a search index for search query completion is working perfectly.
The pricing is very reasonable. For testing and small volume sites, there is even a free tier.
Support also is great. The turnaround for a fix in one of the provided SDKs was less than 24h.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I truly dislike about algolia.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's saving us the effort to build our own search infrastructure. We have no relevant skills available in-house, so having such a service offered at a reasonable cost is helping is to get our products to the market a lot faster.
Algolia for micro entrepreneurs
What do you like best about the product?
When trying to learn about Algolia as a new customer, it is very easy to navigate their website and see clearly what their pricing and structure plans are. The implementation of it on my company website, DollarProbs.com was easy and we did not experience any major issues or bugs.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be better to see how Algolia can expand on its current sets of search API data, and be able to give more in-depth reports in its weekly usage report emails it sends out. Making it a bit easier to switch plans would be more helpful, but overall it is quite simple to find needed information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Algolia search API to help determine what users on my website are searching for, and to see what the trending words are that they are searching for so we can make them stronger keywords in our site. The Algolia features and services are plenty for my small business to handle for now.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need a detailed and precise search API, Algolia is a great tool that can help improve the search abilities of your website. Algolia was recommended to me first by a friend, and then after hearing it recommended again by my web team, I knew it was a worthwhile product, and has lived up to my current small business needs. It is easy to find research needed to learn more about what the product is and its potential helpful features to improve your own business needs.
Brilliant service
What do you like best about the product?
Super easy to setup, configure and make on-the-fly changes and has dramatically improved the search experience for our customers and staff trying to find products and articles on our website
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike. It's amazing! Nothing more I can add
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The search logic that I personally developed was very basic, didn't understand plurals, spelling mistakes and was slow. Algolia has solved all of this.
Good tool to add value to the search engine of your ecommerce
What do you like best about the product?
If you work with elasticsearch, the migration is very fast. The configuration of the tool is very simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
At first there is uncertainty with the price, but with few calculations you can know what the tool will cost....
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ecommerce search engine and all the product listings.
Simplicity, speed and statistics of use

Brilliant developer documentation and API.
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia is very well thought out product and it's staggering how many options they provide to customise and filter search results. Developer documentation is clear and concise and it only takes a few minutes to get up and running. Additionally tooltips are depicted next to almost all configurable options making it even easier to find the relevant documentation. Indexed results are returned almost instantly. I'm also a big fan of the browse feature, which allows you to test any configuration changes to an index without having to setup an environment.
The Algolia team are also friendly and genuinely want to help you make the most of your experience and achieve your goals.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some of features we required were aimed at more of an enterprise level business, which was beyond the scope our implementation. However after chatting with their Team we were able to find a suitable workaround and achieve our goals.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Algolia we are using search as the primary navigation on our agency's landing page replacing the existing navigation with the aim to get users to engage more with the company and quickly find what they are looking for.
The best search service provider
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia provides a full full-text search service. Beside other search technologies that require an infrastructure, Algolia has everything ready to be used. You only have to define the content, and the rest of the solutions "just works" instantly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. It is great from everything possible angle. You have widgets and libraries to cover everything you can ask and more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have implemented Algolia in our sites and we are also selling extensions for Joomla based on Algolia. We are currently integrating Algolia on sites based on the idea of promoting Instant Search and Autocompletion for Sites. We are developing connectors for Algolia. No more complications than the connector configuration.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The pricing is always a concern for most clients. However, under our perspective, Algolia is very convenient. You can forget about the search infrastructure and empower your site on Algolia. It works everywhere and 7x24. An excellent search engine is priceless. On top of this, Algolia's free tier can meet the requirement of most small sites and business.
