AddSearch Pricing, Features, Reviews and Alternatives

Ease of use and integration, really easy to get in place and go with the default settings. Just drop in and it works.

Options to go over the starter package and not be at enterprise level pricing. That being said, the support crew helped me get rid of some duplicate/un-needed content in the index so I was safely in the starter package.

Addsearch were willing to customize their software according to our needs. Addsearch is a reasonably cost effective site search solution, yet at the same time provide installation help, customer service, and search accuracy. With regards to our Yahoo Store item catalog, we were able to export our item into a page file using RTML. Then we able to upload and update the items in AddSearch using their...

Can't think of any. Addsearch customer service and support has helped and answered all of our questions.

I think what's great about this product is you can use the search bar on multiple sites and keep the results specific to that domain through writing filters within the code. The reporting feature is nice too as you can see what your visitors are searching for on your website. You can even feed the results in your Google Analytics account! Search bar can also easily be customized using CSS to match your brand.

The filtering of multiple sites can be tricky to get setup properly but their support team is great if assistance is needed. If you need to setup multiple search bars due to a responsive layout this can be tricky as you can only place a single search bar. So you're not able to do something like have one search bar in a desktop menu and another in a mobile one.

We use the custom search UI to show the results in our Corporate Design style. The performance is outstanding and the possibilites the Dashboard offers are so diverse; We can add hidden keywords, use synonym groups or change the weight (relevance) of a single page in the index. You can even set the order of results for specific keywords which is really helpful in our case (big index). Custom meta tags help us to add individual labels to our search results which improves the user's understanding of what he can expect on that page.

These observations only relate to technical limitations until now. It would be great if search suggestions could be filtered as well, for example to only show suggestions matching a specific site. Using handlebars.js as template library requires quite a bit to getting used to but it works well if you use custom helper functions.

As a small family-owned business with an online presence, it was critical to find a reliable, highly functional replacement for Google Site Search that wouldn't break our very small piggy bank and we found AddSearch just in the nick of time. They made it painless to sign up and integrate the AddSearch function on our website. I recall needing clarification on a couple of points and their customer service was very responsive and helpful.

This fit our needs so perfectly from the start and continues to do so almost 2 years later, which is why I can honestly say there isn't anything I dislike about the software.
