Choosing well

Check whether the service supports Android, iOS, web, an API, an extension or self-hosting, based on your storefront and team workflow.
Constructor and Bloomreach Discovery list Android, iOS and web support, while FactFinder lists API and web platforms.
Check plans and trials

Algolia, Amazon Personalize, Capella Search and Fast Simon list free-plan availability. Amazon Personalize and Doofinder list free trials.
Compare search capacity
Look at the search method, indexed catalog limit and monthly query limit. These figures indicate how the service handles your catalogue and expected search activity.
Confirm the limits and pricing together, especially when a provider gives pricing on request.
Review merchandising controls

Compare product recommendations and personalized results as separate capabilities, since they address different discovery needs.
Plan supported channels
Check supported channels alongside platform support. A service may expose an API, web experience, mobile apps, extension or self-hosted deployment, so confirm the connection your store needs.
Keep channel requirements clear before comparing services such as Constructor, FactFinder or Bloomreach Discovery.
