I use it almost everyday, it's even more convenient to search an article in Google Scholar and then download a paper thorough Sci-Hub, than to use Scopus.com or Web of Knowledge's search engine.

Do you get good results? I just tried it out and it most of the articles didn't work. I'm hoping it's just because of a traffic spike.

Do you search by article name or DOI or link? I prefer DOI, because, I guess, it easier for the engine to find a paper. In 95% cases I find a needed paper by DOI.

A digital object identifier (DOI) is a serial code used to uniquely identify objects. The DOI system is particularly used for electronic documents such as journal articles.
