"It's good"
What do you like best about Bing Custom Search API?

What stands out to me about the Bing Custom Search API is how easy it is to implement and how much control it offers over search results. Integrating it into our .NET and Angular applications was a smooth process, thanks to the clear documentation and the straightforward authentication via Azure. The API delivers quick and accurate search results, and its filtering and ranking features make it possible to target the most relevant content. I also value how seamlessly it works with other Microsoft Azure Cognitive Services, making it an excellent choice for projects that require intelligent search functionality without a lengthy setup.

What do you dislike about Bing Custom Search API?

The primary downside is that, although the API offers robust capabilities, the free tier imposes significant restrictions on query volume. For projects with high usage, the costs can escalate rapidly. Furthermore, certain advanced customization options could be more user-friendly, particularly when dealing with complex queries or searches tailored to specific domains. On the positive side, customer support has been outstanding—Microsoft’s documentation is thorough, and their support channels respond promptly to any issues. The developer community and GitHub examples have also proven invaluable for troubleshooting and rapid prototyping. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Bing custom search review"
What do you like best about Bing Custom Search API?

autocomplete search is very useful, video search is really good, and it has good integration across Microsoft systems. safe way to wipe out search history without signing to Microsoft. gives more search results than any other search engines. Pop info panel is great in Bing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bing Custom Search API?

these days most of the android apps we use are all signed in with Gmail accounts as available in playstore and we end up using google search more frequently. Bing provides a very broad range of searches which means browsing through the content can sometimes take more time as more suggestions in search and can lead to confusing material. For example: let's say I search Birthday cake in Bing and google, I have more suggestions in Bing than in google, more options mean more time and can be confusing.

"Good Custom Search API for Bing"
What do you like best about Bing Custom Search API?

The best thing about this API is it allows us to customize search results based on specific needs, enabling more relevant results. It permits us to try and hand-pick spaces and sites that help us make each quest more unambiguous for those attempting to go after our clients. The most significant thing is that it's protected, and the outcomes are very much separated; being a decent instrument for an organization though delicate substance may be upsetting for most clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bing Custom Search API?

The cost is prohibitive, and at times the search results page cannot be fully customized and may not be suitable for all use cases. The user interface can be improved especially the filters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
