Advanced user of Metadata SearchI like that it allows us to search our Salesforce metadata using keywords and let our admins filter for specific metadata. The tool supports a good set of metadata types. Enough to justify the price.
Not all metadata types are supported. It would be nice if custom metadata / custom setting records could be searched. Also, it only allows us to perform simple filters on metadata types. Advanced filters like contains "a" but not "b". It can sometimes be slow to return results. There is a bit of setup involved before using the tool like configuring a Remote Site Setting to point to your org's Metadata API. It would be nice if this was done for us.
Consider our of the box tools like the "Where is This Used" button on fields and VS Code as part of a tool set as these provide insight into the metadata that MD search does not.
Allows our admins to search for existing fields and helps us avoid creating duplicate fields. Also allows us to check for dependencies on certain field values. This helps us make changes to our data schema without unintended results in our automation.
