I don't know any alternative, elasticsearch is very good.
What do you like best about the product?
Most likely functions are fuzziness, synonyms and other all functions.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I can say that dislike this product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's easy to use, I am switching my application backend API call side to ElastSearch.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I am recommending to use Elasticsearch and move your application backend side (I mean the part where frontend call to backend retrieve a data) to Elasticsearch
Feels like Alpha
We were very pleased discovering the option to procure ES Cloud through AWS Amrketplace. However, we quickly found very basic features missing:
- It is not possible to have more than one management account for ES Cloud. Meaning only one user can create and manage deployments (clusters)
- It is not possible to restrict IP ranges for access to ES endpoints
- A private VPC Link apparently requires manual steps on ES side and was not available for us.
Of Course Elasticsearch works and configuration is relatively easy. Due to the issues mentioned, I can't recommend this service for anything close to production.
Fast, intuitive and easy to use search engine with an acceptable Wordpress plugin.
What do you like best about the product?
As a marketing professional I need to boost sales at a fast pace in order to attract as many customers as possible. Thanks to Swiftype we can carry out easy searches and at a fast pace currently plays an important role in our company. The configuration is very simple and I love that it can be integrated with wordpress and mobile applications. The analysis of geographic information is quite complete with very accurate results when using it. Flexible management and a very skilled team.
What do you dislike about the product?
The integration with wordpress works quite badly the plugin in many occasions generates failures. The price structure doesn't seem right to me, it's almost 80$ a month for a good but not excellent search system. By 2019 the company was really presenting problems in their support team leaving really bad in their services. However, I bet they will be better by 2020.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it to carry out powerful and fast searches in such a way as to be able to capture organic traffic in an intuitive and cunning way. I use the wordpress plugin as a bold and versatile integration for search work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I can recommend Site search because it really does the job it was made for. However, I must stress that it has many problems with regard to its integration, especially Wordpress, so if you really want to acquire the search engine, I think you should analyze well what you want and seek for your work. It is a young company and will surely improve in the future.
I used Elastic search as a search Engine .
What do you like best about the product?
Elastic search worked on the top of Lucene Engine .Elastic search is an open source search engine which is very good in performance. As Elastic search is a document oriented database that is why it worked on full text search that is why it is fast in searching . I like the performance of elastic search.
What do you dislike about the product?
Till now everything is good, I personally feel good while using elastic search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used elastic search for searching logs while implementing ELK stack to monitoring logs. I feel elastic search good because it is very fast in searching and also scalable.
The Swiftype Search platform is fully designed to meet the search needs of its users.
What do you like best about the product?
Swiftype Search is a truly comprehensive platform that provides a variety of tools needed to build a very good search experience for your users' websites or applications. Swiftype Search allows you to create and manage a search experience tailored to the specific needs and patterns of your users very quickly. Swiftype Search is distinguished by being fully relevant software, having intuitive customization features and being easy to install. In general Swiftype Search is a very easy to configure platform and provides fairly accurate search results, its interface is really powerful and easy to work with, in general Swiftype Search is a simple but highly functional platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to have more control over how search results are generated, because currently it is a bit imprecise when performing searches and can be a headache for users. I also think that the 3 plans offered by Swiftype Search are a bit exaggerated and you really have to know how to choose according to the needs of the user, because they are really expensive, personally I think it would be very favorable Swiftype Search to have a cost structure a little cheaper so that many more people can purchase the service of Swiftype Search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been using Swiftype Search for several years now, and I must say that although it has been a platform that has had some setbacks it has been very functional for us in our company, it has really helped us to simplify our work, as it is very easy to work with and configure, in general we consider that Swiftype Search has been a very strategic tool for our company.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend Swiftype Search because it is a platform of very good operation and high functionality, Swiftype Search is very easy to use, its interface is extremely simple but very complete, Swiftype Search provides the best experience to work because it is very useful, really this platform is distinguished by providing much solidity and guarantee of its service.
Very good software
What do you like best about the product?
Set-up and install was quick and easy, even for multiple sites. Customized result rankings are a key feature for us (although if you have a ton of results, it can be a little tedious to go through) that is also easy to use, along with the ability to create synonym sets for various search terms. Many of our search terms have variations or are easily misspelled, so the synonym set has greatly reduced the number of empty searches that users were experiencing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Theming of the search bar and results isn't exactly intuitive and can require a little guidance. Some pieces could use an upgrade (such as the color picker) to make it easy to theme based on your branding guidelines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
all my problems
Increased my sales!
What do you like best about the product?
Using swift type allowed for my most relanvent items to be surfaced by my customers!
What do you dislike about the product?
A little pricey after the initial trial, but not was it worth the results!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have found a major increase in sales after using swift type!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it for at least a few at least a few months! It takes a little to see the results
Very fast search engine
What do you like best about the product?
Apache Elasticsearch is very fast search engine. It is very easy to use. It is real time, open source and distributed. Its response time is in milliseconds. It is json based on search engine. It also has HTTP web interface. Elasticsearch is developed in Java. We have many java libraries available to access Elastic search for example Jest client. I also has Kibana which is an open source data visualization plugin for Elasticsearch.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing as such. Only the Elasticsearch json queries we need to learn before using this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is document based, that is no-sql. It helps to me search, filter and sort the data in real time. If we manually implement such then that may cause serious performance issue. It can be used as a document based database as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are other search engines in the market, Cosmos DB is one of them, but costly to use. This one is easy to use and 2 digit millisecond response time. So please go for it.
Robust solution for search and indexing
What do you like best about the product?
Incredibly broad API. You can really do a lot of things with ElasticSearch when it comes to search and data, and I haven't even scratched the surface.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since there are so many APIs and tools within ES, and variety between releases, it can be difficult to figure out if you are using the API correctly or not. The DSL is not exactly easy to follow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to power a search algorithm that caters results to the user's needs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are just using basic functionality, you may be able to just use your regular DB and it's functionalities.
Fantastic search engine
What do you like best about the product?
It's fast and reliable, very useful for searching and filtering large data sets. It's one of best ways to allow your app users to quickly navigate into your data, with full text search support, and aggregations help to increase power of filtering.
What do you dislike about the product?
Query language isn't the easy thing to implement, specially when you need advanced features (like search, aggregations with nested aggregations, plus filters and all in a single query).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping our users to navigate into own data, generating reports, allowing a search across entire app or in particular features.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool to use with your app, useful also for managing logs or exploring any data with Kibana.
