It's easy to use and setup. If pricing and closed source is OK with you then it's worth it. We've used them few years ago and then switched to ES. Think of it like of pre-docker Heroku.
- oakfr 5y agoOut of curiosity, what made you choose ES over Algolia?
- kirubakaran 5y agoFrom the comment, I guess "pricing and closed source" became not OK
- thefounder 5y agoAs @kirubakaran said it was the price and the closed source license. If search becomes a very important part of your business you better own it rather than outsource it. Algolia is great to get started but it doesn't make sense at scale. If you have large indexes it's just too expensive.
- jabo 5y agoWhat did the migration effort look like when moving from Algolia to ElasticSearch? Also, were you able to replicate the same user experience?
