We have implemented it to allow customers to live search our product catalog of over 10000 items and it handles this impeccably. It also plays well with different frameworks, and the documentation is clear. > > **Cons**: If you were a non-technical user, then the software would be difficult to understand. > > Algolia search has increased our conversion rates, and provides a much better user experience than any of the other instant search providers we tried. I wouldn't want to move away from algolia as the functionality and potential it offers is so great. ----- ### "Search made easy" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *5 January 2019* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great documentation and absolutely incredible customer support. Their developers answer technical questions, and provide you with custom code to fit your implementation. > > **Cons**: The free plan includes a lot of operations per month, but as soon as you go over the limits, the pricing becomes quite aggressive. I'd rather pay per use, for the exact number of operations performed. ----- ### "Algolia Evaluation" — 3.0/5 > **Gustavo** | *3 April 2021* | Judiciary | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: The most impactful function is MOBILE SEARCH BY ALGOLIA. The product is easy to use. It helped in my business, giving the possibility for my clients to access information by cell phone. > > **Cons**: The product is complete, perfectly easy to use, intuitive. > > We are producing legal content. I realized the ease that took my business to the cell phone, making access to legal information easier. ----- ### "Give Your Customers Amazing Experiences with Algolia" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 April 2019* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It helps our customers find exactly what they are looking for.

With Algolia Search, they trust us more ----- ### "Delightful user experience both as an end user but also developer." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *28 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Algolia provides an amazing search platform on the cloud. In literally a few steps and minutes you are able to have a good enough search (excluding time to populate it). I had no experience with other search engines like Elasticsearch before hand and I still found it greatly easy. The settings can be defined on the dashboard or via the API which can be both a good and a bad as it can cause miss-configuration. Lastly it is really fast, honestly I worked in commerce shops that build their own search and had to maintain it etc for less than 200k products, now I see that this was well, for no reason. > > **Cons**: As a developer the main problem is the documentation. It lacks, it seems incomplete and although they try to show more languages it would be better to focus on coverage than language adaption. > > Easy to setup, cost effective search on the cloud. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/100184/algolia?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/100184/algolia) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
