This helps our customers ensure that they can quickly and easily find what they are looking for and gives them comfort in seeing search results in a more typical retail (versus bank) layout.

Positive: After evaluating over a half a dozen search vendors, including: Clerk.io, Cludo, Elastic, Swifttype, HawkSearch, Algolia, AddSearch, SearchNode and Coveo, we decided to go with AddSearch. We chose AddSearch because they offered a comprehensive list of search features. specialize in federated search, provide options for personalization and support creation of UI. Their budget fell midway between the lowest and highest and they had the shortest implementation time for ease of integration.

Negative: We have had a few hiccups in technology; however, whenever we experienced search index or code issues, AddSearch's support team was quick to assist and helped us troubleshoot to resolve problems quickly.

Summary: Our experience with AddSearch has been great so far. We're using the service to index an archive of PDF files so that we can make them publicly searchable. It's enabled us to increase access to a collection of files that are otherwise difficult to search. The API is great, and allows us to easily build a custom front-end interface for our users.

Positive: - AddSearch indexes PDF content very well
- Web dashboard gives us all the control we need
- API is available to further customize our usage
- Support is incredibly fast, friendly, and helpful!

Negative: Nothing of note. Any minor issues I've had were quickly addressed by support.

Summary: For our web site, the Essentials subscription gives us most everything we need at the moment. It is a great way to tailor general and specific keywords to certain pages.

Positive: The ability to 'pin' a page to a specific keyword, the analytics pages (even at the Essentials subscription it is wealth of information for us).

Negative: The documentation seems a bit light but once you get the hang of the process you are good to go.

Summary: I use it on my website’s main page to optimize user experience and in the support section to make it easier for visitors to access help articles.

Positive: The search is incredibly fast and displays relevant results in real time.
I love being able to customize the design of the search box so it matches the look and feel of my website.

Negative: Some advanced features, like detailed search analytics, are only available in higher-tier plans.
I’d like to see more direct integration options for less common CMS platforms.

Summary: Overall experience is quite promising and positive throughout, as the ease of deployment, integration capabilities with sites, and simplified installation have made this a favorite of various businesses. Advance features in real-time reporting through customizable dashboards and multifarious reporting structures have helped businesses immensely.

Positive: It provides instant, error-free search solutions of online stores and businesses. The deployment is easy and did not require any complex coding setup; rather, it can be easily initiated with simple plugins in Shopify, etc., and is very well customizable as per business requirements. The subscription is quite affordable and so preferred by the majority of businesses.

Negative: No problems noticed or notified by the team so far.

Summary: Overall, AddSearch has made a strong impact on our productivity by simplifying access to important documentation and knowledge repositories. It enables both technical teams and business users to quickly locate relevant information, improving collaboration and decision-making. Its balance of speed, accuracy, and customization makes it a practical tool for enterprise environments. My experience has been positive, and it has proven to be a reliable solution that adds real value to daily operations.

Positive: AddSearch has been very effective in improving the way we manage and retrieve large volumes of technical documentation and enterprise content. It provides fast and accurate search results, which is critical in environments where time-sensitive decisions depend on having the right information quickly. The customization features, such as relevance tuning and personalized search experiences, make it adaptable for different user groups. The analytics dashboard is also valuable for understanding how users interact with content and continuously improving the search performance.

Negative: The only drawback I have noticed is that the initial setup and fine-tuning process can take time, especially in an enterprise environment where data is spread across multiple sources. Some effort is required to optimize relevance and indexing so that the results are fully aligned with specific business and technical requirements. Once this is completed, however, the system works smoothly and consistently.

Summary: AddSearch directly supports the core parts of my role, whether it’s ensuring product launches and campaigns get the visibility clients expect, improving search accuracy in help centers to cut down on support issues, or uncovering gaps in content strategies that we can address for better engagement. It has given me more leverage in conversations with clients because I can show clear improvements backed by data, and it reduces the operational load of managing multiple accounts by centralizing search management. With a more responsive UI and richer analytics segmentation, it would become an even stronger tool in helping me drive client satisfaction and revenue growth.

Positive: In my role managing key accounts, AddSearch has been very effective in helping me deliver better outcomes for clients. The speed and accuracy of the search, combined with typo tolerance and AI-driven ranking, mean clients’ users find what they’re looking for quickly. Features like pinning results or setting promotions give me direct control over how campaigns and product launches show up in search, which is critical when clients are pushing seasonal offers or new products. The analytics are equally valuable, as they give me clear data on search trends and content gaps. That allows me to make concrete, data-backed recommendations to clients instead of relying on assumptions. Managing multiple domains from a single dashboard also saves me time on reporting and optimization, letting me focus on strategy and growth discussions with clients.

Negative: The main challenge I’ve noticed is the user interface. When resizing or minimizing windows, the layout doesn’t always adjust well, which feels a bit unpolished compared to the strength of the product itself. While it doesn’t affect client results, it can slow me down when multitasking. I’d also like to see deeper segmentation in the analytics, being able to break down results by geography, customer type, or even campaign would make it much faster to tailor insights to specific client needs.

Summary: Easy to use, great access to useful data, could be better with automatic reports and more frequent crawling.

Positive: Our web management agency was able to easily integrate AddSearch into our custom website. The functionality helps our internal teams and our clients.

Negative: Can't rank the results by popularity or other indicator

Summary: We love AddSearch - it's our go-to solution for any client that wants to pay for premium search. Its performant, highly available, configurable but easy to install.

Positive: It's an extremely robust search solution that can also be turn key. That said, it also offers a full API interface and lots of control to be able to put the effort in to make the search experience very custom. Support is excellent: they are responsive and provide lots of avenues for help. They are also flexible - we were able to have our service customized for our needs by AddSearch Engineering which was a nice surprise given the scale AddSearch operates at.

Negative: A lower tier of pricing would be nice - perhaps one that only provides the "off the shelf" JS interface and limited customization? The $100/mo entry price point is a hard sell for small clients looking for an alternative to the extremely inexpensive Google Programmable Search Engine.
