Review Algolia?

Algolia is praised for its fast and scalable search capabilities, making it a top choice for developers needing powerful search solutions. Makers of Bright commend it as an excellent vector-search solution, while NotCommon highlights its real-time efficiency. CoffeeSpace appreciates its ease of implementation and ability to handle complex models. Users find it intuitive with solid documentation, though some note its pricing can be steep for startups. Overall, Algolia is valued for enhancing user experience and engagement.

The customer support is a nightmare. They rarely answer, it's quite impossible to get an answer. The price also increase every year, making the solution not affordable for startups.

Algolia is fast – like, blink-and-you-miss-it fast. If you’re building anything that needs powerful search, it’s a game-changer. Integration is smooth, the documentation is solid, and features like typo tolerance, faceted search, and instant results make it feel like magic for users. That said, it’s not the cheapest option out there. For smaller startups or apps with huge catalogs, the pricing can scale quickly. Also, if you need deep customization on how results are ranked, expect a bit of a learning curve. Still, for speed, relevance, and overall developer experience, Algolia delivers. It’s become the gold standard for search in modern web apps – and for good reason.
