Alternatives to Google Site Search | Algolia | Algolia

Google discontinued its Site Search service in April 2017 and replaced it with Custom Search Engine (CSE). Companies now have to decide whether to use Google's new site search tool or move to another provider. Google CSE offers several benefits, but also presents challenges for many businesses. Alternatives include on-premises platforms and SaaS solutions hosted in the cloud. The best SaaS providers ensure high service reliability and can scale with business needs. Some popular competitors in this space are Amazon Web Services' CloudSearch and Microsoft Azure's Search. Companies should consider factors such as pricing model, personalization features, analytics capabilities, ease of customization and implementation, and overall reliability when choosing a site search solution.
