Our Verdict

Proven enterprise search for B2B and niche catalogs, but developer experience lags modern AI-native alternatives.

Pros

  • Strong fit for B2B and manufacturing catalogs
  • Faceted navigation handles complex product attributes
  • Veteran vendor with established implementation partners

Cons

  • UI and docs feel dated compared to newer competitors
  • Implementation typically requires a partner agency
  • Not self-serve; pricing gated behind demo
  • Less momentum than Algolia or Constructor in 2026
