LaunchDarkly is a good tool for some

  • January 30, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly has proved a very useful tool for me and my team professionally. It is easy to use (once set up) and can give the team a variety of deployment options. We can deploy a feature without fear of a forced rollback when something goes wrong, we can also test with small audiences rather than deploying to everyone, everywhere, all at once.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes flags can end up cluttering the code, it would be nice if there was a way to automatically generate cleanup issues on github after a certain amount of time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly solves the problem of how to deploy to a specific audience rather than everyone at once. Without LD it woul dbe very very hard to do this.

Separate your deploys from rollouts

  • January 29, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use of creating flags that are separating our feature rollouts from deployment is the largest factor of our use case. Implementation is a simple library and we're able to integrate it into each of our apps easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are still some cultural issues of utilizing LD's flags when we probably didn't need to which adds more complexity to a system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The separation of features from deployment and understanding the reason for degredation or improvement is how it benefits us the most right now.

Feature Flag Galore

  • January 27, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My team primarily uses the feature flags. We integrate this service with out AWS services and can easily toggle code switches. I enjoy the simplicity and customization if you need something more complex.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not personally dealt with it enough to have dislikes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly makes it easy to disable/rollback a change should an issue arise in prod. It also allows for parallel testing without redeploying.

Launch Darkly is a really good tool

  • January 24, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I've heard engineers talk about how easy it is for them to put new features behind a feature flag in Launch Darkly. From the product side, its super easy to create segments of users. This has improved the way we manage our Alpha, Beta, and GA releases. I'm currently leading a huge intiative at the moment; I can not imagine doing this effectively without LD.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their zapier integration is limited. We were attempting to completely automate our beta process leveraging Launch Darkly + Hubspot forms. We failed to do so because LD's zapier integration doesn't support Segments. We are exploring leveraging their public API to build a custom solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has helped us do a few things better. 1. We manage alpha and beta releases more effectively. 2. We hav avoided massive outages by leveraging percentage based rollouts 3. It has helped us reduced the risk of launching large features or intiatives in our customer.

Effortlessly manage feature rollouts with remote control and suggest analytics integration

  • November 12, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

LaunchDarkly is used for feature flag implementation. It allows me to control product release by deciding whether to show certain features to users. I can also control feature visibility remotely by toggling flag values.

How has it helped my organization?

LaunchDarkly helps avoid complete rollbacks when multiple features are released, and one causes an issue. We can simply turn off the problematic feature, saving on redeployment and testing cycles.

What is most valuable?

I appreciate that we can release any feature in production and maintain control over it. If something goes wrong, we can go to the portal, turn off the flag, and manage the situation remotely.

What needs improvement?

Fetching information about multiple flags in a single action would be beneficial. Additionally, incorporating some analytics on LaunchDarkly would enhance its functionality.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using LaunchDarkly for more than one year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I have noticed stability issues in terms of backend performance, such as delays.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

LaunchDarkly is scalable; however, there are areas they could improve on to enhance scalability further.

How are customer service and support?

I haven't yet needed to use customer service, however, support is available for raising questions or queries if necessary.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Before using LaunchDarkly, we had custom services with config tables for feature control. These were difficult to maintain, and there were higher risks of causing issues in production. LaunchDarkly provides a more user-friendly interface and control.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup process was straightforward, assisted by good documentation provided on their site.

What was our ROI?

The ability to avoid rollbacks saves a significant amount of time during deployments, leading to a more efficient development process.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

LaunchDarkly is a licensed version and not free. I am not aware of the specific costs or billing details.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We considered using Firebase. Ultimately we did not implement it.

What other advice do I have?

You can achieve smooth releases with LaunchDarkly while maintaining control over them. It helps avoid compliance issues by allowing feature adjustment at any time.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Public Cloud

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Improving task visibility control with error prevention features

  • November 06, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

I have been using LaunchDarkly for more than one year due to the nature of my projects. Whenever we want to avoid multiple builds, we use a flag to enable future changes in the production environment.

How has it helped my organization?

LaunchDarkly allows us to control deployments without multiple builds. It enables us to show the status of tasks to clients when necessary, and when a task is not complete, we can prevent it from being visible by turning off the flag.

What is most valuable?

The ability to turn off a flag is crucial when a task is not complete, especially if there is an error in a commit. This feature ensures that uncompleted tasks are not shown to clients.

What needs improvement?

Right now, no improvements are needed. In the future, after further analysis, if I have any concerns, I may change my mind.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using LaunchDarkly for more than one year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I have not faced any issues with the stability of LaunchDarkly.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I just used it for one feature. I need to analyze fully in LaunchDarkly and review the documentation. If I have any concerns, I will let you know.

How are customer service and support?

I don't have an idea about the support team as I didn't have to contact them or open a ticket.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was straightforward and not complex.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I do not know the cost of LaunchDarkly as it was implemented offshore. I am not aware of its pricing or whether it is a free or paid source.

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend LaunchDarkly for projects with multiple builds. If you wrongly commit tasks, turning off the flag ensures features do not show up for the client.

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

Feature management simplified with intuitive UI and seamless integration

  • November 04, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

I have been working for the client Windstream, which is an enterprise platform where we develop an Appysuit application. We are testing new features without releasing them to all customers, instead releasing to selected customers. I use LaunchDarkly for feature enabling and disabling.

What is most valuable?

The main feature I value is the user-friendliness, especially the flag enabling and disabling. The API integration is also impressive. I appreciate the UI which allows easy enabling and disabling of flags.

What needs improvement?

I have used LaunchDarkly for around two and a half years and I haven't faced any issues with it.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using it for two and a half years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Performance-wise, it's very good. It has never gone down in the two and a half years of use. The server has been very stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

LaunchDarkly is very good for scalability and makes scaling up easy.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I did not use any previous solution.

How was the initial setup?

The setup is easy. It is just a click and it provides three environments for development, UAT, and production. It's easy to manage all environments.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Pricing is all handled by my project manager; I don't have any costing information.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I did not look into any alternatives.

What other advice do I have?

I would suggest using LaunchDarkly if the application is complex and you have to test many features for future purposes, particularly for enterprise applications. For small applications, I would not suggest using LaunchDarkly. It's easy to use, easy to integrate, and user-friendly.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
