Algolia is so much more than a search index

  • August 16, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Algolia is super reliable with no noticed downtime across the five or more years of using it. In addition to it being lightning fast, we ended up using it to power our searching and filtering across certain content pages in addition to it powering our search.
What do you dislike about the product?
One downside to consider is that running multiple environments on different payment plans so that you are not overpaying for your development data, there was no easy way to migrate settings from indices from one plan to another under the same organization. This meant that all index configuration had to be painstakingly checked and carbon copied when needing to test something on a non-production environment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We initially used algolia just to power search, but quickly realized it was a solution to allow administration tools to quickly find and published content, as well as powering content filtering and categorization for certain listings pages.

Algolia is easy to integrate, it has also great documentation and & support service.

What do you like best about the product?
It's extremely easy to integrate. It took under 1 BD to integrate Algolia for the NGO SaaS that I'm managing. The fuzzy search is completely out of the box, no configuration is needed at all. Before I integrate Algolia I was able to easily import test data and test the actual implementation with demo that Algolia provided. This took under 10 mins.
What do you dislike about the product?
No downsides until now. I'm happy with the service as it is. There seems to be some out of sync communication with representative contacting me over email and phone, but this is nothing irritating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping the dummy search engine that was bild with exact match in mobile apps. Alternative option was to use solr, but it needed extra ram and wasn't feasible to integrate. Algolia is now able to feed the apps with results that might have typo in them. This is also saving our customer service unnecessary tickets.

Fastest solution to market for the easiest to use elasticsearch as a service.

  • August 16, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy integration as well as extensive documentation around integrating with Algolia in the code. UX for business users to update/manage search as well was a huge boon.
What do you dislike about the product?
The react library left a lot to be wanted. Recent improvements by algolia have helped improve the integration with our frontend. Recent UX/UI changes have made it harder to navigate around the site.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Algolia is solving the problem of maintaining and paying for an internal instance of elastic search while also providing cutting edge extensions to the search they provide.

Su concepto de creación (La posibilidad de utilizar servidores más preparados para las consultas)

Por ahora ¡NINGUNO!


An amazing experience

Algolia is a powerful tool and yet more and more easy to use. It gives you a fantastic sense of freedom. The new Instant search with hooks lets you design your search UX just the way you want.

There's nothing I really dislike. Algolia's dashboard design and graphical charter could be simplified and modernized.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to set up a performant search solution in any react app.

Difficult to use, buggy and unreliable

  • July 22, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Very little. The platform does have a lot of functionalities but you need to be an expert to us and have a dev background or find an implementation partner
What do you dislike about the product?
Been screwing around with trying to implement this for several months. Supposed to be a less complicated and non-developer friendly alternative to elastic search. It's far from it. Our search is now riddled with bugs and our collection pages have clusters of similar products on them with no rhyme or reason. Waste of time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
E-commerce search, similar product recommendations, collection pages and filters

Good search out of the box, but inexistent customer support

  • July 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Algolia search is easy to implement and manage provided that you don't try to do something complex and do not need to involve customer service. The search results, on a default setting, are very well presented and indexed efficiently without cumbersome setup time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Inexistent customer support. I got a good amount of seemingly automated informative and follow-up emails on signup which should imply there is great care and interest in their customers.
My experience however proved that, once I needed help and engaged the customer service, I got completely ignored.
My reminders and requests for follow-up and feedback got ignored as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Algolia was the only search plugin I could easily integrate into Docusaurus with a good amount of features out of the box. The other solutions I have tried either didn't work or were more complex to maintain and setup, and time is scarce.
