I like that Algolia is so easy to use for both developers and business-side folks. Now that we've integrated it into our search system, we can iterate often as we learn more about our users and test search ranking improvements. For the business side, I like the ability to see clear usage analytics as well as the system proactively offering synonyms and other options to further boost our search experience. In addition, their team is very easy to work with and has been receptive to feedback and supports us as necessary. It does feel like Algolia offers great service and it has been very appreciated by our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some tools still feel MVP which can be a drag. An example of that is Algolia offers synonyms (where you can make similar phrases return the same result) but the AI re-ranker feature doesn't fully respect them which can break your user experience goals. I do hope Algolia can share more updates and plans for iterating on existing features. They do share their long-term thinking but sometimes it would be great to know when those new features are coming so our team can better plan for them or consider them as part of future A/B testing.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Algolia is easy to integrate with and use. I had used it at a previous job and it was simple to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We would like more customability for our search indexes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
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.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
