## Reviews

### "Great search experience for the end user" — 5.0/5

> **Alberto** | *3 October 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great solution for enabling smart search on our help center and main website, it helped a lot with usability for the end user, and it was not too difficult to implement.
> 
> **Cons**: No cons, it still required our tech team to roll out (so it wasn't exactly something I could have done myself), so I guess that's a small con, but not a big deal since the implementation was easy.
> 
> Positive in the sense that it's pretty flexible and allows you to roll out search functions that are way better than the native features platforms usually offer.

### "Great Facets and Search but takes a while to setup" — 4.0/5

> **Steve** | *12 July 2024* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its replaced our collection pages on Shopify with very fast loading categories of products that respond quickly to filters. The sorting strategies also work well for New in and best selling, removing the need to manually merchandise categories.
> 
> **Cons**: Its not a straight forward setup out of the box and requires quite a bit of building into your Shopify template.
> 
> We wanted something to visually merchandise the site automatically based on user's preferences and best selling / in stock items. Algolia can do this really well but its taken a long time to build into Shopify and configure.

### "Startup Program is indeed too good to be true" — 1.0/5

> **Lucy** | *20 May 2025* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is a search tool and we haven't experienced any downtime, though hard to say if it's that much better than its competitors. We were attracted by its Startup Program, but that hasn't delivered for us.
> 
> **Cons**: Algolia markets its startup program as $10,000 in Free Search \&amp; Discovery Usage, which is super attractive for pre-revenue startups and puts it ahead of its competitors. HOWEVER, what they don't tell you up front is that as soon as you're accepted into the startup program, even if it's months before you launch, the clock starts on that offer, so in practice, you really won't get $10K in value. What the startup program looked like in practice for us--we set up algolia summer 2024 as we were building our product. We launched Jan 2025, 6 months into Algolia's startup program. We've only used ~$300 in credits, yet we will lose the rest of the supposed $10K in credits next month because they only give you 1 year to use the $10K, regardless of when you actually go live. As a small, pre-revenue startup, we're now locked in to paying Algolia's expensive rates until we have the engineering bandwidth to switch, which we definitely will be switching, but I wish we had known up front because we would not have gone with Algolia and invested the time to set it up in the first place.

### "The easiest way to integrate search into your website" — 5.0/5

> **Edgar** | *7 January 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease to install the software, in a few minutes, you can create a searchbar for your website that works very well
> 
> **Cons**: The pricing is quite expensive for smaller businesses which don't rely that much on their website.

-----

### "Algolia search works well" — 4.0/5

> **johan** | *8 October 2019* | Luxury Goods & Jewelry | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The clear analytics and ease to separate accounts when using multiple of them, however this comes at a high cost.
> 
> **Cons**: The difficulty to implement with wordpress.&#10;The high cost.&#10;The lack of flexibility when integrating with other sistems that algolia does not come out of the box for.
> 
> Overall experience has been regular.&#10;In general we needed around 2 months with 2 experienced wordpress developers to be able to implement Algolia which now works ok.
