Coveo JavaScript Search Framework feature comparison

Coveo for Salesforce comes with the Coveo JavaScript Search Framework, a fully customizable, open-source client side search UI developed and maintained by Coveo on GitHub (see Coveo Search UI).

The Coveo JavaScript Search Framework was initially created to communicate with a Coveo index. Since some editions of Coveo for Salesforce don’t make use of the Coveo index, some features can be limited to certain versions.

Here is a list of the differences between the Coveo for Salesforce editions when it comes to the Coveo JavaScript Search Framework components (see Coveo JavaScript Search Framework - Reference Documentation).

Standard query extension usage comparison

The Coveo Search API that comes with Coveo for Salesforce gives you access to the Query extension language, a powerful tool allowing you and your users to refine queries. A developer can use this language to add a complex, refined query when a user selects a certain profile or clicks a certain button, for example.

Since the different Coveo for Salesforce editions use different indexes, some information the Query extension language might expect may not be available.

The following list explains which Standard query extensions can be used with which Coveo for Salesforce edition.

Storage, recommendation, and persistent query allocation comparison

This topic presents index item storage, recommendation, and persistent query limits associated with various Coveo for Salesforce products.

Storage

The storage allocation for Coveo for Salesforce is limited to a certain number of items per Coveo production organization. An item means an element of content in the Coveo index such as a Salesforce object, a document, an email, an HTML page, or a database record.

Each customer is allocated items based on the queries per month (QPM) and Users specified in the purchase order and information in the following table. Coveo’s QPM estimates are based on the information shared by customers, depending on the use case and the customer’s search page’s current traffic.

Allocation type Salesforce product Item allocation per Coveo for Salesforce edition
Free (deprecated) Pro Enterprise
Fixed Per 100 K QPM Per user
Included Community Cloud N/A 500 K 1 M 5 K
Service Cloud N/A 20 K
Sales Cloud 12 K
Platform 4 K
Additional Minimum increments All N/A 500 K 1 M8
Limit 1 M9 60 M10

8. Many editions or additional billable units (QPM or User) are cumulative, up to a maximum of 60 M items.
9. For greater allocation, contact Coveo Sales to upgrade to an Enterprise edition.
10. For greater allocation, contact Coveo Sales.

Example

You have two Coveo for Salesforce licenses for which item allocations are cumulative:

  1. Community Cloud - Coveo for Salesforce Enterprise
    1 M items/100 K QPM x 1 M QPM = 10 M items

  2. Service Cloud - Coveo for Salesforce Enterprise edition with 1000 users item allocation:
    20 K items/user x 1000 users = 20 M items.

The total item allocation is 30 M items.

Recommendations

The Coveo Machine Learning (Coveo ML) Content Recommendations (CR) feature presents a user with most relevant content consulted by other users with a similar navigation history (see About Content Recommendations).

Each Coveo for Salesforce customer is allocated a limited number of recommendation queries (expressed in recommendations per month (RPM)) per Coveo production organization based on the purchase order and information in the following table.

Recommendation allocation Salesforce product Recommendation allocation per Coveo for Salesforce edition
Free (deprecated) Pro Enterprise
Per 100 K QPM Per user Per 100 K QPM Per user
Included Community Cloud N/A 200 K RPM N/A 300 K RPM 1.5 K RPM
Service Cloud N/A 3 K RPM N/A 5 K RPM
Sales Cloud 1.5 K RPM 3 K RPM
Platform 500 RPM 1 K RPM
Additional purchase All N/A N/A11 500 K RPM12

11. For greater allocation, contact Coveo Sales to upgrade to an Enterprise edition.
12. Many editions or additional billable units (QPM or User) are cumulative.

Example

You have two Coveo for Salesforce licenses for which recommendation allocations are cumulative:

  1. Community Cloud - Coveo for Salesforce Enterprise edition with 1 M QPM
    Recommendation allocation: 300 K RPM/100 K QPM x 1 M QPM = 3 M RPM

  2. Service Cloud - Coveo for Salesforce Enterprise edition with 1000 users
    Recommendation allocation: 5 K RPM/user x 1000 users = 5 M RPM

The total allocation is 8 M RPM.

Persistent queries

You can use persistent queries when you want to produce content from relatively static search result and don’t want to impact your queries allocation per month (see About persistent queries and Render static content using persistent queries).

Each Coveo for Salesforce customer is allocated a limited number of persistent queries per Coveo production organization based on the purchase order and information in the following table.

Persistent query allocation Salesforce product Persistent query allocation per Coveo for Salesforce edition
Free (deprecated) Pro Enterprise
Per 100 K QPM
Included Community Cloud N/A 50 150
