The best fast and easy search alternative
What do you like best about the product?
I like this extremely fast tool as it can manage styles quite well, it has great search speed, and ease of integration and support. It provides some pretty good search experience terms that aim to provide one of the best, Algolia is one of the best search experience providers and its functionality and potential is so great that you won't regret employing it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really cannot say that there is a disadvantage, it provides practically everything we need, it may happen that there is a need for a greater degree of customization, also it lacks instructional videos, which is necessary and a bit complicated. Can be very expensive, especially if you need to search all environments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My experience has been very positive and productive, creating real-time search interfaces is incredible. It is the great tool that can help improve your website's search capabilities as well as save a lot of time by not having to manage anything related to search. It has an easy-to-use interface and clear documentation, ideal for fuzzy real-time searches across a wide spectrum of data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Pleasant experience with Algolia, it is easy to use, integrate and configure. Incredibly useful when you need information at your disposal in a high-speed environment.

Don't build your own search and use Algolia instead
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia has been a great alternative to building our own search solution. It has taken care of everything we need in a search tool and it is well documented and easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be very expensive, especially if you need search for all your non production environments (qa, staging). You end up building your own search or disabling search to avoid going over your limit.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem was having a fast and easy search functionality without having to maintain it all the time. We've realized that more functionality like search can be delegated to a third party service.
Very nice documentation, easy to integrate
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of integration and nicely organized documentation
What do you dislike about the product?
I couldn't find a resource to maybe design it by myself, but not necessarily a bad thing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not having a dedicated endpoint and logic for searching our docs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need easy to integrate solution for making your docs searchable, algolia is the thing.
Easy to get started quickly
What do you like best about the product?
Easy integration with existing Firebase app. The documentation was very easy to read and fortunately, there were good stack overflow answers that helped with fine details integrating the app with our backend . The docs are a great way to explore some features of Algolia search. Of course, the app's speed was far superior to the search feature in Firebase.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the API is difficult to use with Java applications. It's easier to use the project if you use Node or Javascript. I would prefer having more documentation and user support/examples for Java programs. Also, it was difficult to tell whether the app's speed was only because of the relatively small datasets we used for our app's prototypes. If there was an easier way to measure the metric and intelligently improve our overall speed, that would help as we scale up our user-base.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making our app's search functionality faster. We were able to add a fine grained search capability to the app easily with Algolia. We had to use more Node to implement full integration with our app and this ended up making our development easier.
Algolia Search is a Game Changer
What do you like best about the product?
I love the speed of search, especially the ability to run performant queries on each keystroke. This is the type of feature you expect when you use a search service like Google, so delivering a similar, intuitive experience to users is a major boost to a website's User Experience.
I first discovered Algolia via the GatsbyJS ecosystem and React documentation websites, so I was pleased to discover that there are well documented / widely adopted plugins available for easy integration with my existing projects.
It's also extremely easy to create a search index both at build time in the project's code or through the Algolia dashboard. I used to struggle with this process when I tried other local search solutions. Algolia is every developer's dream for interactive site search.

What do you dislike about the product?
I found the documentation for React in particular to be very challenging. I think the team at Algolia could do a better job explaining each component and showing relevant examples. It took me much longer than it should have to troubleshoot basic API challenges.
I have also experienced problems with the API querying more times than my search component renders. It would be great if Algolia offered more insight on optimizing usage to prevent behavior like this.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Algolia to index a medium sized content website so users can pinpoint the exact page or content they are looking for. I have found that performant, easy-to-use search really changes the way users approach an application. I currently run it on a website that will soon become 22 additional websites.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend that users try to roll out Algolia search for a trial period to determine how much search volume they receive. This would help users project their budgets.
Great service!
What do you like best about the product?
How easy it was to integrate to our docs. Docusaurus supports algolia and many other services support algolia out of the box for indexing. It's also free so it saved a lot of time for us.
What do you dislike about the product?
For free there wasn't a way to make algolia work offline out of the box.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It made finding the right docs much easier and improved our use of development docs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is easy to integrate and get setup with, it makes getting indices up and running much quicker.
An easy to use, amazing product

It is very easy to use and add information. The platform is very intuitive and searches are lightning fast. The documentation is pretty easy to follow and is very extensive. They offer tiers which offer easy entry for any size of a business.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the documentation could be easier to navigate. Other than that I couldn't be happier using Algolia.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a small project Algolia has enabled me to setup searching within my app with minimal effort. The response is super quick and the customization/configuration that it allow is a big plus.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just give it a try with their community tear and you will see why its amazing.
Best search as a service solution for Laravel
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia can help my services to find the data faster than in a second, even if it's written wrong.
Good documentation and nice Laravel/Vue.js plugins out of the box — means very simple and straightforward integration with almost any product.
You can integrate their search less than one hour!

What do you dislike about the product?
Only problem I found was in the Hebrew (and probably Arabic) language search. Also pricing could be too big than self managing a elastic search for big projects. But for small projects would be enough even free tier!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used algolia in my customers’ web-sites: multilingual search, multiple entity search, full-text search for products and categories for ecommerce, and even show products by category and filters directly from their API without my backend. It was easy to integrate, fast
Recommendations to others considering the product:
No doubt, it could save a lot of hours
A powerful and easy to use tool

- easy to install
- teams are helpful and reactivate
- integration is very easy and bring a kind of professionalism to your website very easily

What do you dislike about the product?
Customization is possible but not so easy, more documentation could be very helpful
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I wrote some documentation for a personal open source projet. Thanks to algolia users can now easily find the documentation they need
