A great search engine that requires minimal setup
What do you like best about the product?
It’s a great search engine that requires minimal setup to get going.
I found the ReactJS sdk easy to use and enabled me to have a poc ready in 1h.
They have a comprehensive rest api that allowed us to easily ingest new data.
The response time of under 200ms was one of the factors that helped improve our conversion rates

What do you dislike about the product?
the need to create separate indexes to be able to do sorting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
algolia enabled me to to create a fast product grid with blazing fast filters and search.
As you type search with misspells helped our customers in the region as most people in dubai are expats and their first language is not english.
Managed to considerably improve our pages load time which helped improve our conversion rates

Great search engine
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia makes indexed searching on our website easy!
What do you dislike about the product?
The online reporting and analytics are not that intuitive and timeline is restricted.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Algolia as a simple search interface for our clients.
Algolia has completely enhanced the search experience for our users.
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia was easy to integrate, and their platform makes it easy to customize the search experience based on our product and customer needs. We had originally built our own search experience but found that transitioning over to Algolia gave us the ability to constantly be delivering an excellent experience to users without needing to maintain the search technology on our own.
What do you dislike about the product?
As a business owner, I haven't run into any downsides yet but admittedly the engineers on my team would be more prepared to comment on any details of the integration or maintenance process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are allowing media buyers to discover and browse their purchase options much faster.
As a frontend dev, Algolia is an absolute delight to work with.
What do you like best about the product?
Having a predefined library of frontend components was key to choosing Algolia for our main search functionality. Having example components to work from or extend for my use was incredibly helpful for building a search interface fast. We managed to build a series of pages without Algolia... and the day before launch we decided to add instant search. We were able to integrate + launch it within a day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Keeping real time data in sync is quite difficult/expensive with Algolia as a solution. Where we have a large list of items in our Algolia, they also have data points that update in near real time. The combination of needing to update data in algolia, and constantly refresh the algolia cache in browser results in either high costs, or out of sync data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Algolia has been fantastic for using real time fuzzy search across a broad spectrum of data. Combinging 3-4 data sets that we display as separate pages into one search result is a breeze.
Being able to take the same complex data set, and provide predefined sorting options has added a lot of functionality to our product rapidly. Without the need for backend to create custom endpoints for us.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Algolia is incredible for creating real time search interfaces, but difficult to work with real time data updates. If you're sending updates in mass, it will be difficult to keep users already browsing the site in sync.
We opted to delay some of our updates to algolia, and use web sockets to update users browsing the site just in case to combat this.

Fast and Easy to Implement
What do you like best about the product?
The speed at which search results are returned.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can get expensive if you have a large number of records, regardless of the search volume.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our primary goal was enabling a search experience where the customer could search for products using natural language queries and one that could handle typos. Algolia allowed us to implement this without having to hire out for that expertise.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Keep the amount of data you store for each record as small as possible -- limiting it to only what will be searched on and displayed. To minimize costs, avoid using multiple indexes like you would multiple tables in a database. A search that uses 2 indexes will use 2 operations for every keystroke (for typeahead search).
Great product!
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia is Great to build Apps with lice search! It really makes it easy to provide our users the best experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downside of Algolia is database synchronization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem Algolia solved was a fast, flexible and simple search for our users. With filtering, sorting and pagination.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take time to synchronize your databases. That really makes it great.
Powerful way to integrate search to my website
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to integrate thanks to all SDK and documentation.
Backend and frontend integrations provided

What do you dislike about the product?
When you have special needs or very particular needs you need to adapt your product to Algolia.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improve user experience like never! Really fast for my users and easy to integrate for my developers
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't rebuild the wheel use SaaS like this
Great search-engine best suited for e-commerce
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to load data to, many SDKs available, easy to configure, reliable service.
What do you dislike about the product?
The use case we have is a bit odd for Algolia so I keep explaining to stakeholders the design decisions we made.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To construct a set of relevant hotels for given anchor hotel or place.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great search engine for slowly changing data. Reliability and speed are the best
Faster response while searching
What do you like best about the product?
Response time when I type a keyword in the search input
What do you dislike about the product?
I currently feel that there is no downside of using algolia as long as my data is safe.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I had a document searching functionality to be implemented in my project. I stored all the content of my document in the my local database but when it came for searching a keyword from the stored content in the database I lagged the response timing as it was not very fast. I resolved this issue when I used algolia.
Algolia for firebase search and geoloc!
What do you like best about the product?
It makes up for Firebases' deficiencies!
What do you dislike about the product?
Probably scaling up can be costly, but to start and prototype is great and easy
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was solving the search of Google maps businesses, taking into account the user location as well (to find closer shops)
