Fast Simon Search and Filters

This app is 10 times better than searching on Shopify! Highly recommended this app to make searching on your website top notch!

It's working great so far! Hopefully it will stay that way.

We used this app for a year at the rate of $49.99/mo without any issues. But at the end of the year, they inform us that they now base their plans on monthly Sessions (not the number of search queries) and that we're now forced into a plan that is $129/mo. That is an unreasonable upsell considering we spend on marketing to increase our traffic (sessions) but that does not necessarily translate into increased use of this search bar app. Why? Because we target our advertising at specific products and pages. In-store Searches are primarily driven by Organic Traffic. So why should we pay more for a search bar because we advertise more? Especially when that does not impact searches by organic users? If we have 72,000 sessions but only 2,000 searches... why are we paying for sessions? These things are unrelated and it's a sneaky way of linking their fees to our marketing spend. Big NOPE. If you want to be penalized for spending more on marketing and increasing your sessions, then this might be the search bar for you! But there are plenty of other highly functional search bar apps that charge based on actual use of the search bar - based on searches. When asked for an explanation about this via their support channel the responses were timely but terse and uninformative. For $129/mo you at least expect very friendly customer support. After the initial 1-star review we posted they reached out to complain about details of the review but not to offer any sort of remedy to the core issue. Seems they are more concerned with review stars than with customer satisfaction.

If you want better conversion, focusing on a better UX with SEARCH will be part of the strategy. We have been using Instant Search and have seen the use of the SEARCH menu bar triple (both in mobile and desktop)

A breeze to setup and fantastic product - Reasonable pricing - Thank you :)

This is an absolutely must-have app for any growing and successful store. Support is the epitome of perfection and we're honoured to have Instant Search + as a valuable asset and integral part of our on-line infrastructure.

So far its been an awesome app

Great app - does exactly what it says. Can't wait for their next revision. Excellent experience with tech support!

Very useful app for improving on the the native search bar within Shopify. In our case, InstantSearch makes it MUCH easier for potential customers to find specific groomsmen gifts or military branded products through plain-language queries, which helps conversion rate while also reducing our time spent answering simple questions over the phone or live chat.

Instant Search works right out of the box.
It's very easy to install and gives excellent results as you type.

I like that you can also add some specific keywords to show specific products.

What I like less is their interface.
It's ugly and I wish they would use Shopify's framework to make a more user friendly layout.

It really doesn't want to go in and customize all of your options.

Another bummer is that the lower plan only allows you to see the last 30 days of stats.

Knowing what keywords were the most searched in the last year or last 6 months would be great... but I'm not going to pay an extra 60$+ per month for that option.

Overall, it does what it says and it does it well.
My visitors use it more than I though.
