I am looking for a plug in to expand search functionality. May I ask for recommendations and if there are pros or cons to others?

Answer 1

My company uses Blast Lucene, their support is decent and once you get the hang of how it works from an admin standpoint, their search works pretty nicely.

Answer 2

The Sphinx Search Ultimate is one of the best solution for search.

Answer 3

Internal Magento is <50% accurate, Sphinx/Lucene are 60-80% accurate, Solr is 98% accurate (we install this one normally), it is really that simple. After that which extension you choose is dependent on business requirements vs cost.
