## Reviews

### "Way to expensive to implement" — 1.0/5

> **Debbie** | *July 23, 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Federated search across multiple platforms
> 
> **Cons**: The implementation was bad. The cost to implement to get anything close to what I would get with Algolia or Coveo is approximately 10 times the cost of the software.
> 
> Totally regret the purchase of this software

### "Best search engine on the market" — 5.0/5

> **Adam Victor** | *May 26, 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is just the best back end for search engines in the market. A NoSQL database that is trustworthy. Also, it is open source. Incredibly easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: Mostly for developers: other people would have a hard time with it.
> 
> I work with Elasticsearch as a developer on a daily bases for textual search. It is the greatest tool I've used in years. Really like it.

### "Your searches are smart now" — 5.0/5

> **Héctor** | *September 30, 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Auto corrections on several languages&#10;Instant search&#10;Synonyms search&#10;Is amazing, the search of my app works awesomely.
> 
> **Cons**: Is based on Java and that might cripple your low end machine or server, is better to run it on a cloud instance like AWS Elastic Search.
> 
> It works awesomely, the search is fully featured and was easy to setup if you're a sysadmin or developer.

### "Great solution for implementing searching over vast amount of data\!\!" — 5.0/5

> **Dilraj** | *November 16, 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Elasticsearch is a great solution for implementing optimised searches over the data you have lying in your databases. The setup and configuration is a bit tricky, but once you have configured the data points and the indexes, the search is lighting fast. You can go for the complete text search or for the autocomplete bases suggestions which can help your users to quickly search for the right things in your system.
> 
> **Cons**: The setup of Elasticsearch does have a learning curve for the developers, but the documentation is really helpful in getting you over the curve. Setting up indexes or data points for search can be tricky. Elasticsearch needs to setup a more proactive customer support so that developers who are facing deadlines, can easily sort their issues with the help of tech support.
> 
> Elasticsearch helps in performing optimised searching over the vast amount of data present in your system. The configuration for Elasticsearch can have some learning curve, but once setup completely, the indexed searches are really fast as compared to other basic solutions and helps users in searching your system from vast amount of data. Its ideal for Big data and can be used in other e-commerce solutions also. Text searching is really fast and helps your system in maintaining performance and scalability over search operations.

Elasticsearch also handles distributed queries very efficiently.
> 
> **Cons**: Reindexing documents can be a real pain if there is a major change in the schema, otherwise no complaints.
> 
> I am extremely satisfied with Elasticsearch, its speed \&amp; querying capabilities among lots of data amaze me\!
