The best feature flagging tool available

  • February 06, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly is simply the best feature flagging tool.
The integration from a service and application perspective, is super lightweight and very DevOps focused.
Configuring new flags, tracking the life-cycle of a flag, auditing, etc and just a breath of fresh air
What do you dislike about the product?
LaunchDarkly for larger development teams can be expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used LaunchDarkly to help us move from multiple internal tools, with limited feature sets, and limited visability. We now have a single place to understand how all our services and frontend systems are configured to run.
Further it has helped us to move to move complete trunk based development

Not sure how we could ever go without it now.

  • February 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is no understatement that Launch Darkly has changed how we build, test, and deploy functionality.

When we first demo'd it to our team, it "just worked". It was like magic.

Our team can try new things, turn them on, and then rollback if necessary. Or we can build new bits of functionality and test them for individuals easily. You can use it as a killswitch, as a development tool, or even, in a pinch to do content modifications or a one-off permission test. We don't have to wait for something to be 100% finished. We can hide it behind a flag and then come back later.

It was super easy to add to all of our front-end and back-end systems (PHP, JavaScript). While the conversion from Users to Contexts was a little confusing at first, once we made the migration, it actually made a lot of sense. The rules systems and custom attributes make it easy to target individuals or groups. We can turn something on for a group or a subset of users really easily.

The administrative UI is great. We can get questions really easily about who sees what and why, looking at evaluations happening in real time, etc.

When there are problems or questions about what fields are in what values, the historical log of changes in the UI have been a god-send. "When did this change?" is always something we can answer. Who changed it, when, and (usually) why is recorded in the historical log.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only real downside we've encountered is the lack of a true Angular integration. There are options out there, but we had to tweak and modify to make it work well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows us to launch smaller features more quickly and with more confidence. We can use it to deploy stuff that isn't quite ready but we still want to be able to get feedback in production. Or we can just enable it for a group of testing users.

Helps a lot

  • January 31, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
You can work in a feature hidden behind a flag for an entire week or month, push the code changes/additions to Production, it won't be available, not until you turn the flag ON, changes are accessible right at the moment.

If something went wrong, you can still rollback the feature (or hide it) just by turning it back to OFF.
What do you dislike about the product?
Works just fine, don't have any issues at the moment
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps to safely launch your code and features to production, main benefit is that you could rollback at any moment.

Break release bottlenecks with LaunchDarkly

  • January 31, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Feature flags with fine grained context controls help us experiment with new logic and avoid bottlenecks in our release cadence. We use contexts for tracked assets, devices, users, and organisations allowing us to rapidly run experiments.
What do you dislike about the product?
Expensive per seat, but worth the cost especially for small teams. The LD proxy relay for backend support can take some time to launch and configure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly allows us to continuously release with features in development behind flags. This streamlines our team's development workflow and allows us to incrementally release new features to our user base and mitigate risks associated with a big bang rollout. We also use it for running experiments leveraging contexts. We have an IoT product and the flexibility to use contexts beyond users lets us apply conditional logic at a device or asset level.

From Amplitude to Houseware: A Seamless Transition to Control, Savings, and Performance

  • November 22, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Houseware provides powerful product analytics features like Trends, Retention Analysis, Funnels, and Flows. What I like most about Houseware is that it runs on top of a warehouse (instead of storing the data with itself), which aligns with our data and CDP strategy. Running on top of our Snowflake warehouse provides us unparalleled control over our data, addressing concerns around data residency and ensuring data security and compliance.

One of the most notable advantages is the significant cost reduction. We were able to cut our product analytics costs by over 50%, without compromising on functionality, making Houseware a cost-effective and powerful solution for our analytics needs.

Additionally, the onboarding experience was exceptional. The Houseware team went above and beyond, assisting us in setting up both Rudderstack and Snowflake. We were up and running within just one day, thanks to the personalized assistance from the Houseware team, reinforcing our confidence in choosing Houseware as our preferred product analytics solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Houseware excels in many aspects, it currently lacks some advanced features like Stickiness, Compass, and Anomaly detection compared to competitors like Mixpanel and Amplitude. Additionally, the current UI/UX isn't the most intuitive, and there's room for improvement. However, given the Houseware team's rapid innovation pace, it's likely that they will bridge these feature gaps and potentially surpass the competition in the future.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Houseware is tackling critical challenges in the product analytics landscape. Unlike Amplitude and Mixpanel, which charge extensively for storing event data, Houseware runs on top of cost-effective warehouses like Snowflake and BigQuery. This not only significantly reduces costs but also provides unprecedented control over our data, addressing concerns related to data residency and compliance. Houseware, in essence, acts as a powerful Retool for Snowflake in the realm of product analytics.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a tool its helping to generate insights from product & features easily. The ease and simplicity its providing makes you independent in analysing your product, features etc which in turn reduces friction in your product growth planning.
