What merchants think

Feedback submitted

Merchants say this app is a fast, reliable upgrade over Shopify’s native search, with instant predictive results and clear separation of products, pages, and blog posts. It installs easily, works across themes, and handles very large catalogs with smart filters that hide specific or out‑of‑stock items. Many report better navigation, more content views, higher sales, valuable search analytics, and exceptional, highly customizable support at a strong price.

Instant predictive text, instant results, color customizable, results cover your entire site, great support, etc. Graham was super responsive to customizing our new theme with the app, leaving behind any doubt that there was no reason not to keep the app. I've had it for several years now.

Update from a few days after the first review: Due to an update in my theme, my apps had to be redone. Graham came to my rescue again fixing bugs with the search app happily, quickly, and effectively.

I really put a lot of value in trust and quick, professional service. The fact Graham grasps the philosophy of our website, that Okas' app compliments our site nicely and leads customers to more discoveries than our navigation can provide, all of this is proof of their caring for a website as though it was their own. They have done this, more than once.

Thank you! I think everyone would find Okas' app as the best search engine for their website.

INSTALL THIS APP NOW!
I can't say this strongly enough; if you are looking for a search and collection filter system this is the one you want! The app is solid, the customer service is fantastic, responsive, and they made multiple back end configuration customizations for me in record time, and I'm shocked at how inexpensive it is. 90% of the options out there are up to $300 a month because of the size of our inventory and I was searching off and on for months, and this just blows them out of the water. The ONLY thing I would say if asked to give a drawback is it takes a few more seconds for some heavy product pages to load, but we have over 20,000 items and dozens of tag groups with hundreds of tags, so that's totally understandable. Your typical shopify store should notice no major difference in load time. If our store can handle it with only a few extra seconds of delay, it will work perfectly for just about everyone else. I would gladly pay a little more for this app from an awesome developer!

I'm pretty particular about the look and feel of our store because I have loyal customers who like things a certain way. This app has added great functionality to them while still feeling familiar to the Shopify-native search set-up. I hadn't realized until recently that our past blog articles were not easily accessible, nor were our special pages. This solves that problem by allowing a search to pull up all of those things as well as items, but keeping them separate so the results are organized and make sense to customers. I had some trouble with it "off the shelf:" I wanted search filters to automatically appear because my customers were used to that, and I wanted the color scheme on the filters to match the site's color scheme. Graham has been very helpful, writing to fully understand my problem and then diving into making everything perfect for our store. It now looks great, feels intuitive, and works perfectly for our customers. Our blog articles are getting more views and as a result, items linked in them are seeing an uptick in sales. Customers have emailed to say they love the new search with photos of items included in it. This app is going to help your customers and your store, and the price is very reasonable - Seriously, what are you waiting for?!

Stop searching, this is what you need.
This guy offers best features, best pricing, and best customer service.
If he continue his service like this, i believe he will get thousands of customers. Well done Graham :-)

Smooth onboarding with Graham and the application works perfect. Compared to another application we used before, this application provides real time results and no extra time needed for update on a 3rd party server.

We have been using Live Search going on 2+ years. It is one of the very few add-on apps we use. And it has been invaluable for us.

The app is easy to configure. The metrics and reporting are fantastic. Moreover, support is lightning fast. Whenever we've reached out for an issue or a request, the response has been quick and collaborative. We will continue using Live Search and can recommend it without hesitation.

Ik ben blij met de app. Er waren functionaliteiten die mijn Theme niet bood en waar deze app wel in voorziet. Daarnaast is de support van Graham uitstekend. Snelle reactie en goede aanpassingen.
