Alternative: A community software search engine

Hi everyone, I am introducing Alternative the community-powered search engine for software. In this post, I will show you a typical journey on Alternative and the new community tools to power Alternative database.

0. Alternative in a nutshell

Need a digital tool? Google it!?

That’s where we start and where we often stop. But do the solutions offered by our search engine and those of the majors really suit us?

For some people, probably not, at least not for me. That’s why I built a search engine specialized in digital tools. I called it Alternative.

Today it’s much more than a search engine, it’s also a comparator and a community space to read or post softwares reviews.

In this latest version, Alternative changes to be entirely powered by its community of users who discover and share their nuggets.

The service is totally free :arrow_upper_right:.
