Pros

“What the startup program looked like in practice for us--we set up algolia summer 2024 as we were building our product.”
LZ

Lucy Z.

Cofounder

“The sorting strategies also work well for New in and best selling, removing the need to manually merchandise categories.”
SR

Steve R.

Marketing Manager

“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.”

Head of Marketing

Pros

“The powerful query format allows us to construct complex queries from deep filter trees and aggregate data in any way we want.”

Cons

“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.”
LZ

Lucy Z.

Cofounder

“The pricing is quite expensive for smaller businesses which don't rely that much on their website.”
EH

Edgar H.

Owner and Software Developper

“We had issues with our data, it was taking too much time to gather the product data and store it.”
