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.

User experience for online customers. For our clients, their customers' experiences are very important considerations when it comes to search functionality. Algolia presents visual search results which are both attractive and have clear potential for conversion to sales.

Would like more features/flexibility. There have been some aspects to the application for e-commerce that still have room for improvement.

Attractive search presentation, speed of search and intelligent search/filter suggestions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easily the best search option on the market for e-commerce.

Fantastic improvements and relative simplicity

  • October 04, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ridiculously simple to import information into Algolia to then create rankings etc,. And the fact that everything that can be done over the API can be done via the interface, makes it super simple to hand of features etc to the Product Owners to manage and tweak without developer time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Documentation when needing to write customisations around the presented libraries is convoluted.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Internal search for users, primary product search and in-content search.

Much improved Search

  • August 14, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The way in which Algolia provides relevant alternatives if the customers preferred search is not available.
What do you dislike about the product?
The way in which it is billed is hard to keep track of.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our search engine on our website was poor. Algolia has much improved this search and helped make our website more consumer friendly.

Simple to use but very powerful platform search

  • August 13, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

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.
What do you dislike about the product?
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

  • June 04, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

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.
