LaunchDarkly does exactly what it needs too without bloat
What do you like best about the product?
I like how much custom control I have over the rules. I like that I can roll out a feature to however many clients I choose, black or whitelist everyone and retain a history so that I can go back later and revert if need be. The rules are very explicit and we use it for every feature we release.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing seems to be a sticking point for some companies. Provisioning a seat for myself seems to be a consistently difficult endeavor and I imagine it's due to cost concerns
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our continuous integration means that features get released as the devs complete them. LD enables us to roll out betas and control the release of features as well as contain bugs.
Good and comfortable with slight tweaks that can be made better
What do you like best about the product?
user level/ role level feature flag handling
What do you dislike about the product?
easier way to adapt when there is % rollout - maybe also add shards where this is rolled out fleibility
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
easy maintainability for LD and feature rollout with Continuous delivery
Effortless Feature Flagging with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the seamless integration of LaunchDarkly into our system, which simplifies the implementation of feature flags in our various environments. The feature flag service is crucial for controlling bug production, wrapping codes, and enhancing both internal testing and customer success. This tool significantly supports our operations and it's incredibly useful for testing better features and preparing for new clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
One aspect of LaunchDarkly that I find challenging is the process of opening and managing feature flags across all environments. Currently, I need to enable each feature flag one by one in different environments such as development, staging, pre-production, and production. This is time-consuming and tedious. I would prefer a feature that allows me to update all flags simultaneously across all environments, which would streamline the process significantly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly's feature flag service to control bugs and enhance internal testing, which supports better features for customer success and new clients.
Game-Changer for Feature Management and Faster Delivery
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly makes feature management so much easier compared to our old setup with Flux, which was difficult to configure and didn’t support targeting customers by email or user ID. With LaunchDarkly, multiple teams can work in the same repo and release features independently without blocking each other, which has sped up our delivery. It also gives us great visibility, safe rollouts, quick rollbacks, and strong role-based access control — all of which reduce risk and improve collaboration.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main challenge is flag cleanup. Flags can pile up quickly, so better lifecycle management tools would help avoid flag debt.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly solves the challenges we had with Flux and cross-team feature development. It lets us safely release features, target specific user groups, reduce conflicts between teams, and unblock delivery for faster iteration
LaunchDarkly in Practice: Safe Rollouts, Gradual Delivery, and Real Trade-offs
What do you like best about the product?
Feature flag management is essential for enabling gradual rollouts, allowing teams to test new features in production environments safely. This approach also makes it easier to segment users, so specific groups can experience updates before a full release. By using these strategies, I can control who sees new features and monitor their impact, which helps ensure a smoother deployment process.
What do you dislike about the product?
When considering cost and value for smaller teams, it's important to note that the pricing can increase significantly as more feature flags are added.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Risky Releases and Rollbacks
Reliable Tool for Managing Feature Flags
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly makes it simple for us to enable or disable features as needed. The platform is reliable, easy to use, and helps us manage feature flags without adding complexity to our workflow.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing major. We mainly use it for feature flags, and it does that reliably.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly helps us manage feature flags, allowing us to enable or disable features quickly without needing a new deployment. This gives our team more control, reduces risk during releases, and makes it easier to roll out changes safely and efficiently.
Launchdarkly is a game changer for feature management
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to easily and securely enable or disable features, as well as collect data, has been very valuable. I have also found the integration with GitHub and Datadog to be excellent.
What do you dislike about the product?
The current tooling functions well, but I find that it needs more integration with GitHub. I would also appreciate greater visibility on flags and a smoother connection with the main application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickly be able to turn and off feature flags and even schedule those changes to avoid late night releases.
A very powerful feature flags management system, might be the most powerful and reliable one.
What do you like best about the product?
It broadcasts the changes to multiple running pods if the pods are subscribed to the LaunchDarkly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The flag configuration types are limited. It don't have complex data types.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides us the ability to release new software features safely, and it is easy to turn on/off the feature without rollback the whole thing if anything unexpected happens.
Excellent Flag manager
What do you like best about the product?
The software is easy to use, offering quick and efficient flag management along with effective context tracking. SDK is fairly easy to integrate as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have no complaints so far; using this has been straightforward and it meets my expectations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For me, the main benefit is how it handles feature management and keeps track of context.
Seamless Feature Rollouts and Reliable AB Testing
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate how easy it is to add and create feature flags and segments, which simplifies my development process in our app. The ability to instantly switch feature flags on and off is immensely useful, as it allows me to manage features in both the front-end and back-end effortlessly. Furthermore, LaunchDarkly's feature for partial rollouts enables controlled testing, letting us test with a small user base and quickly roll back if needed, enhancing stability as we scale. We've used the rollback functionality of LaunchDarkly many times in production and it has saved us (and our users) a lot of headache.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have a lot of old flags lying around. Either rollouts that have been completed, or A/B tests that we decided to scrap. I find it pretty hard to navigate what flags are no longer useful, and removing these takes substantial effort.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find LaunchDarkly solves feature deployment issues, allowing controlled rollouts and quick reversals. It aids in AB testing, ensuring we enhance user experience with precise targeting. The fast toggling of features significantly improves our development workflow.
