Great search tool to start your ecom business
- Easy integration and quick setup
- Dynamic reranking based on product performances
- Search on Synonyms and misspelt words
- We didn't get much technical support. We feel we underutilised Algolia, a technical person could have helped us in leveraging personalisation, dynamic reranking etc better.
- Algolia analytics dashboard can be better. Key metrics like click position isn't available on dashboard.
- AI page level recommendation to reduce no results. Algolia had about 5% no results, these could be shown some results based on ai matching the query and pages/product contents.

- Renewal was not an easy process and we could not get a straight answer on the different plans. We felt that we are being pushed to keep our same plan.
- The renewal process proved to be challenging, and we encountered difficulty in obtaining clear information about the various plans. We had the impression that we were being encouraged to retain our existing plan
