A solid tool that has helped simplify flag management for us
What do you like best about the product?
I like that we can have array flags so that we can push IDs into it to deploy functionality to specific customers. Also, the Go SDK makes integration a breeze.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice if the SDK allowed for default configs so that we don't have to wrap our LD provider to handle situations where we fail a call to LD.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The two main things we use LD for are managing our feature flags and doing staged rollouts to specific user cohorts. LD shines in both cases and has simplified our workflows here.
Easy to use and has many very useful features
What do you like best about the product?
Dynamic configuration, based on user, server, etc is very useful to rollout new features.
Dynamic configuration, based % rollout helps in ramp up new API

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about LaunchDarkly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly is very useful in new feature rollout, new API ramp up ETC.
A great tool to use for on-the-fly feature testing!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease-of-use in integrating new feature flags. There are many applications I have been able to use with this so far, and I look forward to expanding our imlpementation of additional features in the future.
What do you dislike about the product?
Switching between environments does not change anything between the feature flags set on each environment. Just not really a necessary feature to have. This may be something that needs some tweaking with the administrators in my organization, but this is the main feature that stands out as something that is not adding any value.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enabling and disabling features on-the-fly without requiring deployments or image restarts to adjust any configuration files.
Generally reliable, scalable controls, and support has been great
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to set up new flags, and integrate with provided SDK
Scalable management of controls using segments and plenty of useful features for management of long-running vs temporary flags
Scalable management of controls using segments and plenty of useful features for management of long-running vs temporary flags
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes hard to diagnose when LD flag service has gone down or is faulty, with provided SDK, and we've often only discovered an issue when the SDK started serving the default flags (which have often been not well thought-out placeholder values, leading to undesirable experiences for customers)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All of the above?
Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
I am QA of my team and launch darkly give you easy way to access feature
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime it takes more than usual time to integrate with Product
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy to maintain flag for multiple environments
LaunchDarkly is a great product with solid features.
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly provides a great set of features for managing feature flags, kill switches and configuration in a centralized location. It is usable by both technical and non-technical stakeholders to safely roll out new features, or roll them back, when necessary. The technology is fast and reliable in terms of getting the updates to the clients making it a dependable solution for production workloads.
What do you dislike about the product?
LaunchDarkly does its core use-case pretty well. While support for experimentation exists, this is not one of the areas where launch darkly is particularly strong. Better support for experimentation and user targetting would be welcome additions to the LaunchDarkly product line.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We primarily use LaunchDarkly for feature flagging on new features and to act as a killswitch for new rollouts or risky changes. LaunchDarkly allows anyone on our team to easily see the status of our flags and make changes as needed during new product rollouts or feature launches. This is great because it means our engineers, product team and leadership can all use one view to understand the state of things and make updates without the need for a release/deployment.
LaunchDarkly is a great product, have been using it for the past few years.
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, ease of integration, nice UI.
What do you dislike about the product?
Context view is a bit too complex, the query control is a bit too complex.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We leverage CD in our product, so when we push new code to production, we need to make sure they are behind feature-flag. LaunchDarkly is perfectly suited for that purpose.
Easy to use and integrate, great availability
What do you like best about the product?
What I like the most is the server availability, meaning we can trust launch darkly to stay up and evaluet our flags correctly anytime.
It's very easy to use, and I like that you can create different rules for staging/production.

What do you dislike about the product?
I didnt like the latest UI changes... I found it much more comlex and difficulte to set my rules.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to disable/enable features for developers and customers in both staging and production environment.
Easy to use, functionality works as it should. UI could do some work.
What do you like best about the product?
It does what it is supposed to do very well. Easy to set up and easy to configure (once live).
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI isn't very intuitive. For instance, it's not immediately clear to me (I had to ask my colleague) that the flag evaluation rule works in an `if, else if...` manner. I didn't know this until I was told.
Secondly, when configuring flag rules, I wish there was a way for me to export my config (maybe into a csv or something). For example, I might have a rule that says: "if attribute=(a,b,c,d,e,f,g) then Y)". I wish there is a way to just get "a,b,c..." without having to inspect the page. Maybe there is though but I just did not know.

Allows me to configure and change things in production.
Decent Infra as a service
What do you like best about the product?
Makes flag management easy.
Makes it easy to debug and resolve in case a feature cause outage.

What do you dislike about the product?
I would say UI can be better. Approval workflow can be confusing (not sure if that is exatly a LaunchDarkly issue or issue at my company).
