Overall Satisfaction with Algolia

We use Algolia to deploy a custom API database for our University's events and user directories. It provides information feeds for our website to display information on various websites and apps. We also use it to feed the data that gets pulled into various components on our homepage without using complicating CMS fields. Algolia gives us the flexibility to store our data, import feeds from other APIs, and manipulate this across many frameworks in the way that we need it.
  • Custom data streams imported and created solely on Algolia
  • Searchable and indexable data pools
  • Categories to create custom feeds of data
  • Robust API options that allow for a variety of solutions to new projects
  • JSON editor, one that checks formatting or backs up previous versions
  • Organization of data streams
  • In-app notes for new users that can provide context for how Indexes are used
  • In-app comments for attributes to explain the options
  • Being able to successfully complete objectives for marketing teams to display specific streams of content

Algolia is well suited for large scale websites that find it hard to manage their streams of data. It provides a "home base" for all sources of information and gives developers the flexibility to take those data streams and manipulate them for presentable web applications. It may not be super useful or suitable for smaller scale companies and businesses that don't have that many sources of content.
