Great tool for a non-techie
What do you like best about the product?
New to the platform, non-techie, and appreciate the simplicity of it. It allowed me control of my apps without depending on tech team only.
What do you dislike about the product?
Yet to come across a con. It did seem more complex than it actually is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to control rollout of features to users independently, and thus be more confident in managing it directly.

It works like a charm!
What do you like best about the product?
It allows teams to roll out features gradually, to specific users or groups, and even to roll back if something goes wrong, without needing to redeploy code. This flexibility is a huge benefit in managing risk during deployment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Managing a large number of feature flags can become cumbersome, leading to flag sprawl. This requires careful management and cleanup of flags that are no longer needed to avoid technical debt.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly's feature flags allow you to roll out features gradually, test in production with real users, and quickly revert if something goes wrong without redeploying code. This reduces risk and downtime significantly.
Loved it.
What do you like best about the product?
Makes feature rollouts seamless. Ability to segment users for A/B testing and gradual rollouts greatly reduces deployment risk.
What do you dislike about the product?
Price is a bit steep for smaller teams, UI could me more intuitive for users unfamiliar with feature management tools, making the initial setup somewhat challenging.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Prevents major disruptions by enabling rapid rollbacks if issues arise, without redeploying code. For users, it provides the benefit of safer releases, faster iteration cycles, and better user experience through controlled rollouts and A/B testing. This means that teams can continuously deliver improvements with less risk, enhancing both development agility and product quality.
Review of LaunchDarkly from An Security Engineer's Perspective
What do you like best about the product?
I like how LaunchDarkly streamlines feature flag management, allowing for real-time feature toggling without redeployment. Intuitive interface of LD makes it easy to implement A/B testing, phased rollouts, and user-targeted feature releases.
What do you dislike about the product?
LD offers excellent feature management, it can become costly as usage scales, especially for larger teams. Additionally, the learning curve for setting up complex flags and understanding its full capabilities can be not so easy for newcomers. Some integrations may require more customization than anticipated, which can slower initial adoption.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For me, as a security enginer, the ability to control feature access, conduct phased rollouts, and quickly roll back changes reduces downtime are few major wins
Launch Darkly is Good
What do you like best about the product?
LD can use different kinds of data as variants.
What do you dislike about the product?
LD can add rules of OS version, but I can not find a way to add app bundle version rules.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LD can perform as feature flag management.
LaunchDarkly: Good Feature Flagging Solution
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to easily manage and control feature flags across different environments is its standout feature. It empowers teams to release features gradually, roll back changes safely, and experiment without redeploying code, which greatly enhances the deployment process.
What do you dislike about the product?
the learning curve for advanced use cases, such as multi-environment or complex segmentation, can be steep for newcomers. While the documentation is helpful, more in-depth tutorials and real-world examples would be a welcome addition to ease onboarding.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LaunchDarkly solves the challenge of managing feature releases and running A/B tests without the need for complex deployment cycles. It allows us to deploy new features behind feature flags and release them gradually to specific user segments, reducing the risk of bugs or negative impacts on the entire user base
It was really good to go away from configs and real time value updates
What do you like best about the product?
Low latency for any value and really fast updates
What do you dislike about the product?
Recently faced the donwtime with launchdarkly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Frequently change the configs without redeploying the services
Used
What do you like best about the product?
LaunchDarkly allows real-time flag updates without delays, ensuring a smooth and instant response to feature toggles. This platform is fast, reliable, secure, and easy to implement, with an integrated approval mechanism. We found the integration process straightforward, using just a client ID and SDK key, making it incredibly easy to code and set up. Previously, I used a database for flagging, which was slower, and flag changes took time to reflect. Additionally, database connection issues impacted the flag calls. However, these issues were completely avoided once we started using LaunchDarkly.
I change the flags at least 3 to 4 times a day for various testing and development activities, and the process remains consistently smooth. The platform’s seamless integration into our systems has enhanced our workflow. Additionally, the customer support has been responsive and helpful, addressing any issues promptly, which further improves the experience.

What do you dislike about the product?
While LaunchDarkly has greatly improved our feature management, one area for improvement would be adding a dedicated Performance Environment in the portal. Currently, we use the UAT environment for performance testing, which is not ideal.
