Does anyone have recommendations for ElasticSearch add-ons on Heroku? Building on https://github.com/solidusio-contrib/solidus_searchkick, I'm looking to set us up with it on our Solidus instance at some point, but am not seeing a huge difference between the Bonsai add on https://elements.heroku.com/addons/bonsai and ElasticSearch themselves' add on https://elements.heroku.com/addons/foundelasticsearch. Any recommendations for one or the other?

I've used Bonsai and am pretty meh on it, but it was a decision made before my time, so I don't have a good comparison. We typically lean on Algolia for search now, rather than trying to maintain and tune something with searchkick, but it's definitely more pricey and not for everyone.

We use Bonsai, tried some others but we prefer Bonsai, I remember the issue with the Licensing and Bonsai was the only one with good support

Nice thanks for the fast responses! Interesting that ES's own plugin doesn't get much love
