LD is helping us implement and maintain feature flags at ease.
intutive ux and great to target specific user segments
What do you like best about the product?
intuitive user interface, making it easy for teams to create, manage, and monitor feature flags without extensive technical expertise.
target feature flags to specific user segments, allowing for gradual feature rollouts and informed decision-making based on real-time analytics.

What do you dislike about the product?
Code integration isn't seamless, and might have outages
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
launching features gradually and controlling features enablement with out need for devs
Risk minimisation
What do you like best about the product?
It is a great tool allowing us to minimize risk with deployment to production.
What do you dislike about the product?
The new UI changes. The best UI was until 6 months ago, since then everything became less and less intuitive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
New feature rollout, risky bug fixing
Good and hasslefree experience for business
What do you like best about the product?
Easily able to add peaople to the feature flag
What do you dislike about the product?
Not able to to think of any as of now...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Targetting specific customers or users for a feature deployment is what is most beneficial
Feature Management platform on fire
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly's real-time feature flagging enables precise control and experimentation in software deployment, enhancing both developer efficiency and user experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
complexity for newcomers to understand and implement feature flags effectively, and the potential for over-reliance on feature flags
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Risk reduction in deployment and gradual feature rollout
Overall a great tool for rollouts
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is easy to use
Good features: percentage rollout, multiple flag states, easy interface in code, and performance seems good (flag get calls are handled at high volume well)

What do you dislike about the product?
Some nits about usability: editing/adding approvers for a flag change proposal, inability to edit flag names (though this may be by design)
Onboarding was a little confusing at first since there are so many options
Sometimes, it is too easy to use, and we fall into the anti-pattern of using LD flags as configuration.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LD to more finely control features so we can launch them to customers in a controlled manner. It also allows us to quickly revert bad launches vs redeploying.
Easy, risk minimizing way, to test feature releases
What do you like best about the product?
I like how LaunchDarkly makes it easy to toggle features on and off. It is nice that you can target a percentage or regions. We use it all the time to protect feature releases in production. It works for us because our product has high risk so we cannot afford to do rollbacks of the deployed version. It is easy to implement and integret into the app with each new feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that it can be tircky to set up customed targetting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our product has high risk involved because it is health care. Sometimes we cannot test things in the dev env. With the targetting it is easy to target a test account in production in order to get these features tested.
Great feature flagging tool
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to deploy features at the best time for the engineering team and release to customers at the best time for the product and support teams
What do you dislike about the product?
The inability to easily copy segments between environments
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LD allows us the work on big features across many sprints, deploying every two weeks, without releasing a large feature until we are ready. It also provides risk management by giving us the ability to turn features off if they are not working properly.
Quick way to enable software in Production
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly offers a streamlined solution for managing feature flags, empowering teams to toggle features with remarkable speed and precision. With just a few clicks, we can seamlessly turn features on and off in real-time, eliminating the need for lengthy deployment cycles and minimizing downtime.
This rapid iteration capability has transformed our development process, enabling us to iterate and innovate at an unprecedented pace. LaunchDarkly's intuitive interface and comprehensive feature set provide everything we need to effectively control our feature releases and monitor their impact on user behavior.

What do you dislike about the product?
I find Launchdarkly frustrating at times due to occasional reliability issues on the website with the state of a flag. There have been instances where I've needed to refresh the page multiple times to ensure I have the current state of a flag, which disrupts my workflow and diminishes the overall user experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Launchdarkly solves the problem of wanting to try something in Production but not wanting the potential long downtime if things go wrong and need to be rolled back
Great product, easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Friendly ui and right away feature flag. Super easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
I hope the designer sees this. The new UI that requires adding and removing users from feature flag now takes a few more clicks and waiting for load. This is not friendly to developers who are constantly switching on and off for testing.
