DOOFINDER ‑ Search & Discovery

Intuitive, fast and by far the best search tool for large catalogues, we have been using Doofinder for over a year now, recently we had a theme upgrade and it caused some issues with loading, there customer service is second to none and the issue was addressed and solved so quickly, thanks to Tau, Victor and the team.

"DooFinder Support is NON-EXISTENT and many Glitches/Issues" We've had Doofinder set up(enterprise level, so we had EVERY feature at $108/month) on our site for nearly a year now (started 8/23). Although the interface seemed great at first, it wasn't very configurable with our large catalog of products (about 400 visible and 200 non visible). We had random glitches where all products were seen by our customers. Once our rep (Lindsay) left the company, any and all support was impossible to get in contact with. As for the promised "AI" feature, there's nothing AI about this software. We finally decided at the 11 month point to cancel the subscription and I contacted our rep. Crickets. I contacted support. Crickets. I finally went into Shopify and halted the subscription after not hearing from DooFinder support for a two weeks. I contacted, re-contacted through various POC's for a refund for the last month. It wasn't until I reached out to executive's at Doofinder that I every got a response. I was told, no refund since you used the service. Well, I wouldn't have if you would have answered my 8+ emails/forms. Previous review when we set up the account: Lindsay helped us get all set up with DooFinder on our Shopify store. It's been one of the best additions to our Shopify account to date. It just brings our search bar to life and gives so many controllable options for our customers. The banner ads are also a big plus - gives an additional space for promotional items or related products/services. The on boarding process was super easy - it did everything on it's own and after about 48 hours, we had some solid analytics from our real customers. Thanks Lindsay! Show more

We tried this app, but unfortunately, we had some issues especially for the mobile devices the search widget would load after a 1-2 seconds delay. And if your store experiences a high number of sessions per day, it might become quite expensive since the cost is based on the number of requests your store makes. Since our store has the around 150k monthly sessions and after installing this app for a week this app made a request of around 55,000 requests. We were on pro plan having 100,000 request per month and the price was $130/month approx. We later had to increase the limit to 200,000 request per month, which significantly increased the cost. And there is no immediate support for the emergencies. Show more

I can honestly say that this app has transformed the usability of our website. We got called about a trial just at the prefect time when I was frustrated with the native search capabilities of default Shopify and the vast variation of our products and about to search for a solution, either through an app or looking into getting something customer built. I am so glad we went with it because it not only have customers been loving how they browse our website again but also the staff find it a breeze to use, even when they don't work with our online inventory. Lindsay was amazingly helpful. She took the time to answer my concerns and all of my questions with clear and concise explanations. Anything that she couldn't answer directly, she consulted their team and got back to me so quick. We've had it live for a few months now and I don't know how we didn't have it before. Show more
