Fast and intuitive search
What do you like best about the product?
The search is so fast and is able to return results as you type. The experience that I can create with Algolia is leagues above other search providers and super easy to implement.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing structure is a bit confusing at first. When you ask for help it puts you into one of their sales funnels
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's allowed us to greatly improve our blog search functionality and performance. We can now also send URLs which preload the filters we've selected. This is great for our marketing team!

A fantastic product
What do you like best about the product?
The API to index data and the granularity on which we can allow users to search on.
What do you dislike about the product?
Most of our clients want infinite scroll plus GeoSearch (click here for an example). The issue we have is that the map will render the result set differently depending on the position of the infinite scroll, ultimately not showing all the results available. For example: If I search and get 100 results and the hits per page is set to 50, the user will see the first 50 results on the map. Once the scroll position has loaded results 51-100, the map will only show results 51-100 and not show results 1-50. This confuses users.
Some users find it confusing when the filtered item automatically goes to the top of the list when it is refined/filtered.

Real time search for a firebase application
Very good experience. It's really fast in searching results. Really liked it

I had issue with the search functionality at my website. Algolia is keeping good care of my website's search. Benefit of using algolia is that the users on my website can enjoy the fast search.
Great Search, tricky details
What do you like best about the product?
I love the fact that,at its premise, it's simply fast search over small JSON payloads.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting some of the finer details to work can be really tricky. The size limitations is a big sticking point, and breaking up larger objects into a single entity feels like something that should be managed within the SDK itself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using Algolia to build several geolocating websites, as well as a product support site for a database platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great product - make sure you pay close attention to the details of your implementation. The documentation could do a better job in some details but overall it's your friend, as is the support forums if you get stuck.
More focused search results, faster
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia represents a huge advance compared to our Ecommerce site's original search tool. It delivers much more refined and relevant search results nearly instantaneously, making the shopper's experience much more productive and enjoyable.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's so highly technical that I must involve our web developer to implement almost any tweak to search logic, other than some basic stuff I can accomplish on my own.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our original site search tool was based on simple word-search, so it would display any product whose description contained the searched word, rendering search results almost useless. In contrast, Algolia returns search results that are way more useful. Our next step will be to index our blog and FAQ pages, in addition to our products, since oftentimes our visitors are searching for help on a topic, not just for a product.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be prepared to invest time to ensure search results are appropriate and satisfactory.
Better .than elastic search
What do you like best about the product?
Is very easy compared with competitors, and the library support for JS

What do you like best about the product?
It allows up to offload our search infrastructure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing in particular integration was relatively easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Algolia is our search provider, solves the problem of having to implement and run a solr, etc. implementation
