What developers are saying about Algolia

  • David Catuhe – Technical Evangelist Lead, Microsoft

  • Hoa V. Dinh – Senior Software Engineer, Google

    "Indexing a large amount of data on mobile device in an efficient way is a difficult problem that Algolia solved."

  • Clément Stenac – Co-founder & CTO, Dataiku

    “Being very familiar with search systems, I was truly impressed when I got my first index built and ready for query in literally less than a minute, with very simple querying. But it does not stop here : the performance of the searches is nothing short of amazing, even with large indexes.

    Algolia Search Cloud is a truly innovative offering with a blissful setup experience.”
  • Milan Jovic – Freelance Android Developer

    "For our application we needed a fast search that has a small memory footprint and can tolerate typos. Our solution that used built-in Android APIs and SQLite database was way too slow and made our application's user experience not so good. But Algolia solved that in just a couple of hours. Plus it came with great customer support."

  • Fabien Charbit – Founder & CTO, Sush.IO

    "Algolia is a very powerful tool and very easy to setup and install. In only a couple of hours, we were able to considerably improve the search quality in our app and the user experience. Algolia is not a 'nice to have'. It's definitely a 'must have' ."
