Fast, simple, and a good fit for high-core servers

The simplicity and convenience of Manticore and Sphinx search are their most appealing features to me. The indexing functionality, in particular, saves a tremendous amount of development time and effort.

From a user experience perspective, my interactions with Manticore have been largely positive. I'm not currently a paying customer, but I have still received exceptional support from their team.

That being said, it's important to note that Manticore's stability has been a concern in the past. During our tests, we encountered some instability issues that made us hesitant to upgrade. We've logged these issues on Manticore's GitHub page. In our view, these were issues that should have been identified and resolved earlier on.

We chose Manticore/Sphinx over Elastic Search primarily because of its impressive speed, ease of development, and simpler server management, including the indexing feature. We hope Manticore continues to support real-time indexing, thereby preserving these benefits and keeping the indexer competitive.

I'd also like to point out that Manticore Search is particularly well-suited to newer servers with many cores and threads. For example, we run on 128 core/256 thread EPYC servers, and Manticore's performance has been outstanding, especially when compared to Elastic Search. I feel this is an advantage that many people may overlook
