What customers say about Algolia

Testimonials published on Algolia's own website, selected by the vendor. These are not independent reviews.

“We spend a lot of time thinking about how discovery and our customers’ values interact, and considering how we can create a nice balance by using personalization. It dynamically creates a balance between new customers who are probably more interested in best-selling products, and returning customers who are visiting for discovery.” Source

“For a retailer like us with more than 25,000 products in our catalog, a solution that improves each of our users’ experiences along their search journey adds tremendous value. Algolia’s built-in personalization represents a real step forward in the digital era for Decathlon Singapore.” Source

“Not only does Algolia pay for itself by enabling us to offer visibility to our CPGs, it also makes it easier for us to promote our higher-margin private label brands and include personalized impulse products on checkout.” Source
