"Great Search Option for our Customers!"
What do you like best about Elasticsearch?

Three things really stand out with Swiftype, the comprehensiveness and display of the search results, The simplicity of implementation, and the ability to choose which results show first for specific search terms and phrases. Make that four...the ability to recognize users choice of search phrases that are similar or in a different order. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elasticsearch?

Nothing I have found to date. Everything has gone smoothly in implementing with our website and we have gotten great feedback (often unsolicited) from our customers...something that let's know it is effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Integration & Customization Experience "
What do you like best about Elasticsearch?

I loved the flexibility Swiftype allows developers to add-in Swiftype meta tags for crawling site giving us full control to say what to crawl and what shouldn't be crawled by various levels. I had fun integrating experience while working with Swiftype to one of our site. There is way more to explore and utilize the advance capabilities. Can't wait to get my hands on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elasticsearch?

Only one thing restricting pagination to 100. But that shouldn't stop us from getting top results. We can work with that data set for sure. No one would deep dive more than 100 as per UX. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Developing with Swiftype is quite easy with detailed documentation and high-qaulity support"
What do you like best about Elasticsearch?

Swiftype's documentation is very extensive and thorough, which was extremely helpful in the development process. Support staff was frequently very quick to respond with detailed and helpful responses , not to mention a cheerful attitude, making for a pleasant experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elasticsearch?

So much documentation did take a lot of time to digest. Perhaps the addition of of video step-by-step tutorials for the jQuery plugin integration might be helpful to first-time users of Swiftype's Advanced features.

There are numerous differences between Swiftype and Google Custom Search, which was in my experience the most popular custom search integration for many clients I had worked with. Since Google is deprecating their Custom Search product, I think that for clients switching form Google to Swiftype, a comparison article would be helpful in working on transition projects.

"Seamless transition from now-defunct Google Search Engine"
What do you like best about Elasticsearch?

We love being able to drag and drop the page order displayed for a particular search. Before Swiftype, someone searching "cloud" on our site might see a blog post about the cloud before seeing a cloud service product page. That's a big deal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elasticsearch?

Our business relationship with Swiftype has been a series of pleasant surprises since day one. No complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Customizable Experience"
What do you like best about Elasticsearch?

I like how easy Swiftype is to use and the power of being able to rank and customize the results to a query so that I can ensure the user is getting the results that will be more helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elasticsearch?

I wish Swiftype would allow me to add URLs it doesn't recognize. For example, I have a few symbolic links or pages with redirects that send the user directly to a system we utilize. It would be extremely helpful if I could include those within the search results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple and Intuitive Replacement for Google Search"
What do you like best about Elasticsearch?

The coding was simple and integrated into our site flawlessly. The search functions offers greater capability than we had with Google Search and delivers useful analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elasticsearch?

I am not sure why I haven't heard of Swiftype before we were forced to migrate. I think this would have been a valuable search engine for our site years ago. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The features included in Swiftype are exceptional. They have great support and are willing to help with integration. The API has good documentation. Their team is willing to help where needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far there is very little to complain about. The biggest would be the autocomplete feature counts too many queries against my account. The API documentation could use better example code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
