Search Sphinx allows customers to find the products they want quicker. Around 43% to 50% of e-commerce customers use site search to find products . Customers will leave your store if they cannot find the products they want. Your store is losing a lot of potential sales if your search is slow or returning poor results.
How important is fast site search? Well consider the following:
A customer will not be able to order products from your store if they cannot find them. Relevant results matter and Sphinx Search will make your results more relevant and faster.

Features / Benefits
Search results are actually relevantDefault search oftentimes returns poor results. Search Sphinx ensures that the most relevant results are presented to your customers which can increase sales.
Search speed is super fastSearch speed can be much faster when using Search Sphinx. This is especially true for sites with more products.
Boost certain product attributes to increase relevanceImagine you have two product attributes that are indexed, but one of them is more relevant for searching. You can boost the influence of the more important attribute, so that the attribute will be given more consideration when calculating relevance. Common uses are to give sku numbers or the name more relevancy
Support for word synonymsSynonyms ensure that customers can still find products even if they use an unpopular word. For example, a computer store can use synonyms so laptop and notebook will return similar results.
Support for many languagesSphinx Search works for all languages, but it includes special tools to be even more accurate with some languages such as:
Sometimes the category or product tags contain relevant information and should be searchable, so we give you the option to index this data.
