What do you like best about Bing Custom Search API?

You get to specify search domains and webpages that Bing will search. You can also define custom views, making it easier for users to interact with relevant information quickly and easily. You can then integrate the Views into your application using language-independent APIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bing Custom Search API?

The concept of a searchable user interface that can be rendered within the application is not explained thoroughly and seems confusing if the developer reads the docs. The examples and samples should be such that one can create and integrate the views with the sample scripts running in browsers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Azure Congnitive Search API"
4/5
What do you like best about Bing Custom Search API?

With the help of the robust Azure Bing Search API, developers can quickly include search capability into their apps. Its ability to deliver highly relevant results, made possible by its connection with Microsoft's Bing search engine, is one of the features I admire most about it. The ability to access the web, picture, and video results, as well as support for multiple filters and query parameters, are just a few of the many capabilities and customization choices it provides. The Azure Bing Search API is an excellent choice for developers wishing to integrate search capability into their applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bing Custom Search API?

The Azure Bing Search API's requirement for an API key for usage and authentication might be a drawback for developers since it adds another step to the implementation process. Its use may also be restricted to particular areas or nations. Another possible drawback is that the Azure Bing Search API is a personal tool and that developers could have to pay for access or only have a certain number of free requests each month. It's important to note that this can be a common practice for many premium search APIs, thus for many users, this may not be a significant disadvantage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What could be better is if the api can also be integrated with other search feature such as search using camera or feature such as voice search. That would help the user search our website faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
