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

Transforms Feature Management with Precision Control
What do you like best about the product?
I like how LaunchDarkly gives me precise, real-time control over feature releases with strong targeting and instant rollbacks, making deployments safer and more scalable. It reduces release risk by letting us control, test, and roll back features instantly without redeployments. LaunchDarkly is also a powerful feature tool for managing feature flags without deploying new code and running controlled experiments. I really value its robust feature control and reliable release management.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main downside is the pricing at scale and the learning curve for non-technical teams, which could be improved with simpler plans and more intuitive onboarding.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly lets me manage feature flags without redeploying, reduce release risk with instant rollbacks, and control feature tests, making deployments safer and scalable.
Robust Feature Management for Customer Access
What do you like best about the product?
I like the robust flag logic controls of LaunchDarkly. The ability to create different groups and add notes is really helpful as it makes it easier for others to understand why things are set in certain ways. I use LaunchDarkly to manage feature access for customers, and it solves the issue of managing what different customers on different contracts have access to, as well as testing new features with smaller subsets of customers. I haven't run into any issues so far and would definitely recommend it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly solves the problem of managing feature access for customers on different contracts and testing new features with smaller customer subsets, simplifying our feature management.
Intuitive Feature Flagging with Easy Setup
What do you like best about the product?
I really like how LaunchDarkly is super easy to use, especially with the change log for each feature flag. It's like a git repo, allowing us to see who's edited it and when, which is super helpful and intuitive for our workflow. It was also super easy to set up; our front-end engineer did it in a day. LaunchDarkly makes managing feature flags for our different customers very convenient.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I'm editing a feature flag, I always have to type the word 'production' or 'development.' For production, I feel like that's necessary, but for a dev environment, it doesn't seem like we should have to do that all the time. That's the main complaint. I also find LaunchDarkly a little difficult to navigate. Our entire organization uses LaunchDarkly, and finding our specific team's feature flags is a bit of a puzzle if I start at the beginning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly allows us to segment features behind service agreements, so we can turn features on and off for different customer subsets easily. It's been super helpful for managing these features.
Our go-to tool for flexible and safer release management!
What do you like best about the product?
One of the standout features is how flexibly and simplicity it lets teams manage releases, whether that's by targeting specific users or gradually rolling out changes to a set percentage of users. This level of control is a significant advantage. I also appreciate being able to add tags to feature flags, which makes it much easier to monitor how many feature flags each team is using.
Another highly valuable capability is tracking the evolution of feature flags evaluations over time. Additionally, having tags that indicate when a flag is ready to be removed or archived is extremely helpful for keeping things organized and tidy.

What do you dislike about the product?
There have been some recent changes to the UI related to the FF archiving process, which have introduced a bit of additional confusion. Other than that, I don't have many issues to report.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Launch Darkly to perform continuous releases, keeping everything behind a feature flag, which helps accelerate our development process. Additionally, we rely on it for progressive rollouts, both when introducing new features and when deploying bug fixes. By gradually releasing changes to batches of customers before enabling them for everyone, we ensure a safer and more controlled deployment process overall.

What do you dislike about the product?
No major complaints at this time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LaunchDarkly for release and launch management, controlling exposure of new code to end-users, and managing rollouts to complex segments and cohorts.
Effortless for Engineering Teams, Clean and Simple Interface
What do you like best about the product?

What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes i think it could be organized better. We have so many different segments its hard to find without saving the specific link. Could be just an us problem though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it largely to grant clients access to certain features or segments and its clean and simple to use
