AI Lead Engineer for product company
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of using toggles makes it easy for me to switch on and off for my production deployment. Previously, we had to redeploy everything even for a single change, but using feature toggles has made it much easier and simpler to implement and integrate into production.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing as of now, its a good product. we would like to continue
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool enables us to make deployment changes rapidly by switching the toggles on and off. We absolutely love it. The entire process is simplified, integrates seamlessly with our code, and we have experienced zero bugs in production deployment.
Launch Darkly Feature Flags
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of creating and processing feature flags in Launch Darkly. They make it easy to protect our work before releasing to production. Love being able to see different environments all at once.
What do you dislike about the product?
At first I disliked how when turning flags on/off it wasn't as easy before. Now I have gotten use to it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to protect our development work from being released to different environments before we are ready to be released.
New update enables comprehensive feature management
What is our primary use case?
Our developers are using LaunchDarkly. I am using it to turn on features.
What is most valuable?
Recently, I like this new update where we can see and manage everything through it. Also, from the development side, it allows us to manage multiple things. Additionally, I like the services provided, like managing through the internet on and off.
What needs improvement?
As of now, I do not see much room for improvement. The feature where one feature flag is dependent on another could be explored more for our usage.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used it for almost two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Sometimes it breaks down. Only last week, we were getting a 500 error.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Users can easily scale up or down.
How are customer service and support?
I have not contacted their support team for any reason.
How would you rate customer service and support?
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is easy.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I am not sure about the pricing or setup costs. It is all handled by our organization.
What other advice do I have?
You can manage through the reach of flags for different credential regions. You can turn on or off features for different environments. This is pretty useful.
I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.
Fast and powerful feature flaging platform
What do you like best about the product?
Great SDK support for mobile and power configuration options for us to easily target a variety of users. The web console is fast and its nice to have livestreams of data as well as a debug console
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost per seat is not cheap and so we have to agressively limit who has access to the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing feature rollouts across many customers and platforms reliably.
Valuable features to adjust dynamic config
What do you like best about the product?
I think Ease of Use and Implementation is the best.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any opinion for this question.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have various features to provide depending on user and app version.
To manage one by one, we should have a mangement tool, and we use LaunchDarkly
Great tool to deliver impact at velocity
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to tailor faeatures as per customer requirements and be able to carry out A/B testing and staged rollout very easily
What do you dislike about the product?
Their own updates are launched without much user education
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows us to rollout features without waiting for the testingto be concluded across entire user base and all other custom implementations
Easy to manage feature flags as a Product Manager
What do you like best about the product?
- feature rich: you can schedule feature flags, layer approvals, experiment, and more
- UX makes it really clear which environment you're in
- Helps me manage releases when I need to coordiante several cross-functional teams
What do you dislike about the product?
- It's not the least expensive option, but for what you get it's worth it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have to release projects that require coordination across several teams, and all of these teams get done with their work at different times. It would be nearly impossible for everyone to target pushing their code live on the same day without the use of feature flags. Now, my team can finish their work and push it straight out, without worrying about blocking up the pipeline. When all teams complete their work, I have the control to flip all the flags on at once, after our Operations team has had a chance to do their comms about the change.
It quickly helps to enable the certain features based on the feature flags which is great
What do you like best about the product?
We mainly use it for feature flags fo enable certain features on the relevant services.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at the moment as most of the features that i have used are great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its solving major problem where we have to enable certain features on specific services at relevant time and with launch darkly its helping a lot.
Launch darkly review
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is pretty easy to use and intuitive in nature.
Flag management is pretty easy. LD provides an intuitive interface for creating, monitoring, and adjusting flags. The history of the flags is easily accessible as well
Easy to integrate
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime while adding the rules, some of the fields that are not even populated are accepted. Was confusing for me the first time around.
Rules are not easily visualisable. If we can somehow expose an api using which the user can play around and check for response in diff scenarios
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team uses it primarily for feature management. Features are often released behind a flag and are later enabled for either all or certain set of users
Awesome experience using LaunchDarkly
What do you like best about the product?
I was able to progressively release my feature involving multiple feature flags both at frontend & backend in a single go. This gave me a lot of confidence and a peace of mind.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall good experience so far. Have no complaints as such.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Controlling the release of my features on a need basis.
