"Bing Custom Search is Best Custom Search"
What do you like best about Bing Custom Search API?

The best part about Bing Custom Search is that it gives you the full power of a major search engine (that is, Bing) with the reliability and ease of use you'd expect from a multinational company. It is incredibly easy to fire a request and receive detailed structured responses, and you can easily configure the custom search to only search specific content, making it even easier to narrow down on what you want your users to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bing Custom Search API?

In some aspects, the search is too good. This doesn't seem like it would be a problem, until you try filtering out specific sites. Then you begin to find results for more sites that you then need to block also. The internet is a huge place, and that is no fault of Bing's, and while it is impossible to catch everything - there are some sites that slip through the cracks, and if you are implementing a custom search for a large company, this can often result in damaging responses. Unfortunately it is easier to whitelist a few sites than blacklist the many many sites you need to block. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"not very intuitive but it gives stable results"
What do you like best about Bing Custom Search API?

I like the different search options available, they are extremely clear and allow for a lot of customization and targeting of the search. I also liked how stable the search results were from day to day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bing Custom Search API?

It was somewhat difficult to interface the search engine with the Matlab software as there is no documentation about it in the Web Search guide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My experience with Azure Bing is minimal."
What do you like best about Bing Custom Search API?

I love using Bing for the maps. It has saved me a lot of time when I am on the go for events. I travel a lot and I rely on maps to help me get to my destinations on time and with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bing Custom Search API?

I didn't dislike Bing. I think because of a more popular engine I just didn't Bing as much. I believe because I am use to using another source, I'm just comfortable with that source. If I used Bing more I'm sure it would be a great source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
