Effortless Feature Releases and Safer Deployments
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly lets us control when features go live without needing new deployments. We can release changes gradually, limit access to specific users, and quickly switch features off if something goes wrong. This has reduced production risk and made releases much safer and faster.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some settings feel more complex than they need to be
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly separates releasing features from deploying code. This allows us to test changes with small user groups, roll out safely, and quickly roll back if needed. It has improved system stability and reduced the impact of production issues.
Effortless Beta Testing with LaunchDarkly
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate LaunchDarkly's ease of use, which makes it straightforward to work with. I also find targeting users for betas to be particularly effective, along with the customer support and the ability to flag beta features which enhance user testing, segmentation, and feature releases.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was easier to scroll down large lists of users to see submission buttons on large populations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly for user testing and segmentation, feature release, and beta programs, which simplifies targeting users for betas.
Wouldn't want to do without it!
What do you like best about the product?
It is really hard to manage new features without it! I like the option to do client side vs. server side implementation.
What do you dislike about the product?
The LaunchDarkly context could be expanded upon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to roll features out for a select few users only.
Fast Deployment, Clean UI, But Tricky for Non-Tech Staff
What do you like best about the product?
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.
Intuitive UI, Effortless Feature Flagging
What do you like best about the product?
I think the UI of LaunchDarkly is very intuitive and powerful, especially for feature flags. It makes it very easy to feature gate and customize each flag not only with boolean values like true or false, but also with custom values. This flexibility in configuring for different environments, like testing and production, is very valuable to me. Additionally, the onboarding process was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think of anything significant, but maybe more documentation and training and also on best practices would be good. I might have missed this if this already existed somewhere out there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly to easily feature gate changes not ready for production, customize flags beyond true/false, and configure different environments. The intuitive UI makes it powerful for managing feature flags, helping us seamlessly handle testing and production environments.
Transformative Feature Management with Dependable Flags
What do you like best about the product?
I use LaunchDarkly for feature rollout plans, controlling a particular feature, and rolling back changes while on-call. It gives me an assurance about which feature broke something or didn't, making me feel safe in the head. I love the dependent flags feature because it eliminates the need to communicate with the other team about going live, as I can just make it a dependent flag. Additionally, authoring history is a must-have for me as it allows me to see who turned a feature on or off and investigate the associated ticket. The initial setup of LaunchDarkly was straightforward.
What do you dislike about the product?
I believe long back when using dependent flag, there was a small inconsistency that the parent flag had to be rolled out before my flag but not sure it maybe mentioned in the docs now. Other than that I have no issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly makes me feel assured by identifying if a feature broke something. I love using dependent flags to streamline communication with teams and appreciate the authoring history for tracking changes.
Easy Flag Management with Customization, Simple Integration
What do you like best about the product?
It's simple to enable or disable a flag directly from the UI, and I appreciate the options for flag customization and rule setting. Integration with the app is also straightforward.
What do you dislike about the product?
way too many customizations make even a simple use case of launch darkly sometimes complicated to setup
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to enable and disable features within our app
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
