Product Description

Algolia is an API built for developers that delivers relevant results in your mobile apps and websites from the first keystroke.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Other companies such as Elasticsearch and Solr work well out-of-the-box for document search, but delivering a fully-featured, user-friendly search with them requires a lot of additional investment.

Algolia’s highly-optimized infrastructure is distributed across the world in 15 regions and 47 data centers. Algolia provides a 99.99% reliability guarantee and can deliver a fast search to users wherever in the world they’re connecting from. Elasticsearch and Solr do not automatically distribute to multiple regions, and doing so can incur significant server costs and devops resources.

What do you like best about Algolia?

- Ease of setup

- Progressive pricing without hard limits

- Speed and relevance of results, even with typos!

- Unlimited number of indexes, allowing you to organize your data the way you want

- Support is always available to help you configure complex indexes

- History of indexer and query performances Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Algolia?

- Index settings can be tricky to customize without the help of the support

- Not enough tools to explore indexes and manipulate them through the interface

- No quick search tool in the dashboard (oh, ironic!)

- Step in the pricing is too steep: no 49 to 249$ is a huge step if you overflow your quota of the initial plan... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Algolia:

Plan your index structure in advance: it can be a pain, especilly in term of credit, to re-index everything in case of change in your document structure. Otherwise, try the Algolia power on some public sites using it to see how fast and powerful it is.

However, if you need to index a lot of documents and you have enough engineers to handle infrastructure, consider free option like ElasticSearch, which can be cheaper even counting the maintenance time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Algolia solving and how is that benefiting you?

We don't want to maintain the infrastructure needed to allow our customers to search through their data in our app. Algolia allows us to push data of our users in indexes so they can query Algolia after to get results from anything (entities, invoices, documents...)
