Excellent cloud-based feature flag management and configuration platform.
What do you like best about the product?
The ConfigCat feature set is robust and is accompanied by excellent documentation and samples. The team is responsive to feature requests, questions and problems on Slack. They take care of their customers.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have had no complaints about ConfigCat at all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ConfigCat allows us to deliver incomplete features to development and testing environments while not risking production environments. It gives us the ability to turn on features for specific sets of users or do A/B testing. This has smoothed out our Git branching and our CICD processes.
Straightforward and easy to implement Feature Flags management
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to implement and offers a very pragmatic approach at feature flags. The sdks are simple and non-intrusive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing in particular. It offers all the features we needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are managing feature flags across multiple projects written in different frameworks and programming languages. Configcat was very straightforward to implement and all teams were delighted with its ease of use.
ConfigCat helps us ship code faster
What do you like best about the product?
ConfigCat was easy to setup and evaluate. Their developer docs were excellent and we were able to get it integrated pretty easily. We were able to start using it to rapidly release features into our production environment without risking customers seeing things before it was ready.
It allows us to rapidly release software so we can create tighter feedback between our internal teams. New features are hidden behind a feature flag so Product, Design and Engineering can work together building new features for customers. We can also add specific customers to our alpha or beta tests and get their feedback early.

What do you dislike about the product?
Documentation can be better, especially for how to integrate this as an Administrator and to use it as a Team. It is very developer centric, which as an engineer is great for me, but the views could use a little tweaking for non engineering users like Product Managers who just want a view of the feature flags.
Also the concept of a Product with Different Configuration spaces wasn't really documented too well and could use some explanation.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ConfigCat has allowed us to remove the fear of releasing code as part of our development process. My team and I can prototype and validate ideas quickly and get feedback from other stake holders like Product, Design and Operations and makes it so we don't have to worry about impacting customers.
It creates a tighter feedback loop so Engineers can get code into production faster which means iteration towards a better solution is sped up. If you are developing software products, it's extremely helpful.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
They have a trial account that let's you evaluate the tool pretty well. Read the SDK documentation and try it out
Fun & easy way to configure your products
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to configure our systems using ConfigCat, allowing us to ditch the SSH-in-and-change configuration method
What do you dislike about the product?
It requires a constant internet connection, so it can't be used for an off-line application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ConfigCat has helped us ditch manual intervention into our servers and we can simply change it all on a dashboard
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use a caching agent to not have to re-request your config every time
Best product of its kind
What do you like best about the product?
ConfigCat is the first solution of its kind that I had ever tried and we use it on our production solution at our company. In terms of customer service they were super quick and kind, solving our questions and concerns in a very short time.
I'll continue to use their service to quickly change settings in our websites as well as our clients'.

Everything's great and we'll continue to use it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to quickly show/hide parts of our websites by just clicking a button and without having to deploy changes.
Student experience in using ConfigCat
What do you like best about the product?
ConfigCat is is providing special plan for students, which is the same as the Pro plan. This encourages students to explore new solutions, which might be used in their future work. Administration of feature flags and targeting users is very simple. Build in expressions and rules enable to target specific features in different types of applications: web, mobile, games, business apps. Also, ConfigCat is supported by many different platforms, eg.: .NET, Angular, node.js, Andorid, iOS and the SDKs for those platforms are open-source.
What do you dislike about the product?
1) The user interface is a bit too overwhelming. It is simple but could be improved to be more transparent and faster managing feature flags.
2) There is no option to revoke a key.
3) Feature flags cannot be grouped.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It enabled me to change the rules of an application (game) without the need of redeploying it. It also enabled me to easily define different rules for development and production environment without the need of creating logic in my project.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you care about a simple configuration, very good support or you are a student and want to shine in front of classmates or teachers use ConfigCat.
Great Service, few use cases
What do you like best about the product?
Config Cat provides a beautiful easy to understand UI. It has quite a lot of features and more than just enabling and disabling flags. Moreover the free plan allows for using the full feature capacity allowing for knowing exactly what the service can and can't do before moving to a paid plan.
What do you dislike about the product?
Feature flags can be very useful for some types of applications but that is not the case for most of them. So consider if you really need before adding them to your application for no reason.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used to split my application in two (Had two instances running). One for public use and one for testers of the new features. With feature flags I can easily combine them into one resulting in easier maintainability.
