Powerful Feature Management with Robust Controls
What do you like best about the product?
Great tool to safely manage the release of new features, with tons of functionality and controls for rollouts, A/B testing, content management, and much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
Other than potential improvement for the UI/UX in terms of placement of buttons and text boxes, I can't say I dislike anything about LaunchDarkly!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly has helped our business solve the problem of fast, continuous development and iteration without needing to withhold releases of features. It helps us easily turn features off when issues arise, as well as safely and progressively roll them out when we need to. It makes it simple to manage features for different environments, and set many variations for a wide range of functionality.
Robust Feature Management with a Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
I really like LaunchDarkly's UI. It allows my team to control releases easily, make informative decisions, and be able to easily see what we are actually doing with releases.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI is great, but it can be too hard to use for new users. There are too much of things on a screen, I think some of those can be hidden into some dropdowns, or something like that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly to release new features with controlled processes. The great UI makes it easy for our team to control releases, make informed decisions, and understand our actions.
Streamlined Feature Management, Minor Documentation Hurdles
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to manage feature flags with LaunchDarkly. It's great that we can see all experiments and flags in a unified place, which makes handling them much simpler. Given that our engineering department is large, having this unified view really helps us see what's deployed and in which environments.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the documentation confusing for deprecating and archiving flags. It wasn't clear from the UI/documentation exactly what the behavior is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly as a killswitch for new features. It lets us manage feature flags easily, providing a unified place to see all experiments, which simplifies deployments for our large engineering team.
Enabling Dynamic Feature Management at Scale
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly provides fine-grained control over features and configurations, allowing us to make changes without the need for redeployments or causing downtime. This flexibility lets us experiment safely, introduce updates gradually, and address issues as they arise in real time. Thanks to local flag evaluation and minimal impact on performance, we can innovate more quickly while still ensuring system stability and delivering a great user experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
While LaunchDarkly offers robust capabilities as a feature management platform, it can become challenging to handle as the number of flags and environments increases. Teams that are new to feature flagging may face a learning curve, and keeping flags well-organized demands consistent effort and discipline.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly helps us with feature management by enabling dynamic configuration updates. It allows us to enable or disable features and update configurations at runtime without requiring any pod restarts. All configuration rule evaluations happen locally, ensuring there is no additional latency overhead.
Effortless Flag Management with an Intuitive Interface
What do you like best about the product?
Creating and configuring a new flag is really easy ans straightforward, launchdarkly UI is very intuitive and easy to use. Sdk integration is also very easy and adding it in code is also very straightforward, we never faced any downtime
What do you dislike about the product?
Segments have a limit of 15000 which is low for one of our usecase
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Feature releasing is easier, its much easier to roll back any changes if we found any issue
Effortless Feature Gating and Experimentation
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly helps us to have feature gates and run experiments when shipping features
What do you dislike about the product?
It's quite easy to use and as an user, I dont have too much complaints
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Be able to launch a feature behind a feature gate so it's easy to measure the uplift and understand the performance
Effortless Feature Management with Outstanding Support
What do you like best about the product?
This tool is very easy to use and, in my opinion, stands out as the best feature flag solution available. The customer support is also excellent.
What do you dislike about the product?
The license model could be improved, and I believe it would benefit from a review.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The features can be turned on or off with ease.
Effortless Feature Releases and Safer Deployments
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly lets us control when features go live without needing new deployments. We can release changes gradually, limit access to specific users, and quickly switch features off if something goes wrong. This has reduced production risk and made releases much safer and faster.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some settings feel more complex than they need to be
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly separates releasing features from deploying code. This allows us to test changes with small user groups, roll out safely, and quickly roll back if needed. It has improved system stability and reduced the impact of production issues.
Fast Deployment, Clean UI, But Tricky for Non-Tech Staff
What do you like best about the product?
I really like that LaunchDarkly is easy to use. I also find its clean UI appealing, although it can sometimes be a bit complicated for non-tech staff. Additionally, I appreciate how it enables fast and easy deployment safely, which is really important for managing feature flags efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the UI is too complicated for non-tech staff to use. It would be nice if it was easier for sales and support to use to triage and provide custom support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly enables fast and easy deployment safely, making managing feature flags straightforward.
Highly Effective for Gated Rollouts and Feature Management
What do you like best about the product?
I find the product itself works great for what I use it for. It allows me to enable feature flags and serve different variations to different customers. This is incredibly useful for enabling certain AI features as we onboard customers.
What do you dislike about the product?
The segment search is iffy sometimes. I will type a portion of the segment name or the exact segment name and it doesn't come up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly for enabling feature flags and segments, allowing me to enable certain AI features for customers as we onboard them and serve different variations to different customers effectively.
