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.
Effortless Feature Management with LaunchDarkly
What do you like best about the product?
I like LaunchDarkly's pretty straightforward UI because it's easy to use across the board. Even as someone who isn't a developer but manages feature releases, I really enjoy how simple it has been to use. The simplicity of the UI makes it easy for me to turn features on and off for individual accounts and users, which is very useful in my role as a product manager.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't know this personally, but I know that there's internal frustration with how licensing or how usage is built and works. I believe, we're limited to a certain number of either users or flags and I think that was a problem at one point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly allows controlled releases to specific users, internal accounts, or test accounts, giving us greater control over what we're releasing and working on.
Effortless Flag Management and Intuitive Editing
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of searching through the flags, then the intuitiveness of editing the flags was very surprising.
What do you dislike about the product?
Any of the issues we've run into have been more around how we set up the flag and less about how LaunchDarkly works. Overall, there isn't anything I disklike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to control access to new features as we continue to work through development. It is also used to limit access based on licensing agreements
Our go-to tool for flexible and safer release management!
What do you like best about the product?
One of the standout features is how flexibly and simplicity it lets teams manage releases, whether that's by targeting specific users or gradually rolling out changes to a set percentage of users. This level of control is a significant advantage. I also appreciate being able to add tags to feature flags, which makes it much easier to monitor how many feature flags each team is using.
Another highly valuable capability is tracking the evolution of feature flags evaluations over time. Additionally, having tags that indicate when a flag is ready to be removed or archived is extremely helpful for keeping things organized and tidy.

What do you dislike about the product?
There have been some recent changes to the UI related to the FF archiving process, which have introduced a bit of additional confusion. Other than that, I don't have many issues to report.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Launch Darkly to perform continuous releases, keeping everything behind a feature flag, which helps accelerate our development process. Additionally, we rely on it for progressive rollouts, both when introducing new features and when deploying bug fixes. By gradually releasing changes to batches of customers before enabling them for everyone, we ensure a safer and more controlled deployment process overall.
Effortless Feature Management with Intuitive Interface
What do you like best about the product?
I like LaunchDarkly's straightforward and easy-to-use interface and targeting. I enjoy the change history and monitoring capabilities, which work well for our needs. The initial setup was relatively straightforward.
What do you dislike about the product?
No major complaints at this time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly for release and launch management, controlling exposure of new code to end-users, and managing rollouts to complex segments and cohorts.
Effortless for Engineering Teams, Clean and Simple Interface
What do you like best about the product?
Super easy to use for my engineering teams. Clean and simple user face
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes i think it could be organized better. We have so many different segments its hard to find without saving the specific link. Could be just an us problem though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it largely to grant clients access to certain features or segments and its clean and simple to use
Lightning-Fast Updates and Effortless Custom Logic
What do you like best about the product?
How quick new value updates flow to the user, and how easy it is to add custom logic based on versioning
What do you dislike about the product?
There's no ability to add a static flag, aka it doesn't refresh until app launch. Useful for things such as app theme which you don't want to be truly dynamic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick updates of feature flags, if there's a bug in production we can roll banners out immediately to alert users we are rectifying it
Effortless Feature Management for Nontechnical Users
What do you like best about the product?
I like that LaunchDarkly is really simple to utilize when it comes to adding or removing users from pilot groups. It makes segmenting users easy and scheduling releases is straightforward as well. I appreciate the quick updates that instantly take effect in our code. For someone like me who is not technically inclined, it's been really simple to use and understand. Additionally, my initial setup when I joined the user base was very simple, and I was able to grasp how it works easily. The layout seems simple too, which I find helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find that there's a lot of extra typing needed when you have to retype the segment name to make something work. It feels like unnecessary copying and pasting when adding or removing users. It would also be nice if I could take our database and, instead of copying over a user number, associate it with an email ID. I'm not sure if that's a limitation of LaunchDarkly or how we set it up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly to manage feature launches and user lists efficiently. It simplifies adding users to pilots and scheduling releases, enabling quick updates in our code. It's user-friendly, even for non-technical people, making it easier to manage segments and ensure targeted feature distribution.
Empowers Feature Management, Needs Better User Tracking
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate LaunchDarkly's ability to effectively release features under a feature flag, which allows me to monitor and manage how these changes affect user experience through tracking event frequency. I find it easy to monitor and manage experiments, providing a versatile tool for conducting feature tests and gaining valuable insights. The statistical analysis capabilities are an added benefit, giving me a robust overview of feature impacts and experiment results. These features make LaunchDarkly a highly valuable tool for my team's needs, enhancing our approach to feature management and user experience optimization.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it hard to identify if a user is in a particular LaunchDarkly segment within our application. This difficulty makes it very hard to perform analysis beyond event frequency.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly to release features under a flag, monitor the impact on user experience, and manage experiments easily.
