Feature control made powerful
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to see live changes and updates when toggling in the UI. Control of configuring multiple aspects of flags and controlling multiple flags via inheritance. Insights on flag history and audit capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI is confusing for new users. For me personally, it has to do with the layout and structuring of how things are placed as well as certain terminology and what is implied when using different aspects of the product. Feels like it needs to be re-evaluated and there needs to be a way to improve where things are and how they are presented. Right now it is a rather in-your-face type of feeling.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to toggle on/off different features and code paths for specific customers or groups of customers. Separation of dev/staging/prod toggles and control. Fallback control to return to the old behavior in event of undesired issues.
Excellent tool even for non coders
What do you like best about the product?
I liked the feature flag option and its use cases for non developers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Could use a little more work on selling the vaiue proposition for folks like myself who have to translate technical needs to nontecch audiences. But overall excellent at what they do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping manage the feature rollout and development process. A vendor I can see myself proposing in future engagements.
LaunchDarkly is easy to use and supports all popular frameworks
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarly offers client-side SDKs for all popular frameworks such as React, Flutter and JavaScript. Its user interface is clean and it's very easy to read.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they offer more best practices on how to separate toggle logic from business logic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly helps us to enable/disable website features dynamically in real-time without restart of websites.

Great experience
What do you like best about the product?
Technology, people, knowledge transfer and networking
What do you dislike about the product?
Not enough support from the team to help. Requires AE or SE for anything and difficult to get support. Have been a customer for 3 weeks and don't have an AE yet

Releasing
Convenient and easy to use tool to launch in production and organize Early Adopter programs
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, possibility to handle feature flags across multiple environments or datacenter, possible to notify in a slack channel, easy to add accounts to the enabled or disabled list with autocompletion, integration with our SSO (OKTA)
What do you dislike about the product?
the list and search feature for finding the right flag you're looking for could be a little bit more intuitive and nicer, but it still works ok. Not so easy to browse the history of changed features, there is an audit log and one for each flag so I guess it's ok
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy and SOC2 compliant delivery of features in production that are staged and supporting Early Adopter programs by enabling some customers only. We are much more efficient and can collaborate with instant enabling of features when we (including doc) are all ready to start a feature, and can also instantly revert it if there is an issue.
My experience with LaunchDarkly has been fantastic.
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy integration of the SDK into our software has been. They have several different SDKs depending on the client type. The documentation for integrating the different SDKs has been easy to consume and apply in practice.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see some improvements to the management platform. There are areas, such as targeting, where I believe the user experience could be improved quite a bit.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently, we are mostly using LaunchDarkly from a development perspective to hide active feature development from our users. We can follow trunk-based development practices and release versions of the software that can be exposed to just our QA staff in production so that testing can take place in that environment which is often easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend getting a trial version of the LaunchDarkly and giving it a try. Once you start to use the platform you'll realize how easy it is to use.
Great development tool that simplifies feature flags
What do you like best about the product?
Launch darkly lets me easily turn feature flags on and off to control experimental code or beta code.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a need for better documentation around the implementation of the feature flags in the codebase
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Launch Darkly lets me hide any experimental/beta code from the end user, it also allows us to use feature flags to isolate any downtime.
Breaking feature deployment barrier
What do you like best about the product?
I do really like how easy is to set up the flags, it almost took 1 day for my team to get the flags ready from both sides, Frontend and Backend. I also like how stable is the service.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are no actual dislikes for the services. it works as expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem we are solving with LaunchDarkly is releasing the features safely and targeting the feature publish for the user base we want to target.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a good choice, but if you are going to be a heavy user don't forget to use the tagging service for the flags so u can group by them later.
contact sales if u need an air-gapped solution for on-prem deployments.

I love that it's easy to use, organized, and very intuitive. I use it to toggle our features on and off on a daily basis

N/A - I like everything about it so far. Any issues I have would be a limitation of our own system
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
