ConfigCat vs. HashiCorp Waypoint

If you are looking for an experimentation/feature flag style tool that is quick to adopt and provides enough functionality for light/medium use cases, then this is the tool for you. Additionally, they are growing and expanding their functionality and feature set so they can grow alongside you and your needs. The publicly accessible roadmap is also a great benefit to see where time is being spent on which feature next.

Waypoint is very similar to teraform , it can run a ec2 machine, an ECS service, Azure containers, Google containers and many more , which is one of the most advantageous thing about waypoint . The team that we are working with has a hybrid customer based in multiple clouds like AWS, Azure and GCP.

• No automatic push for flag changes - have to write our own webhooks
• No scheduling interface for flipping flags automatically on a schedule
• Interface is a bit cluttered for people who are just flipping flags

• Need more controlling environment which is missing in waypoint
• The UI lags sometimes which can be problematic at times
• It uses HCL language which is outdated , can be moved to YAML which is used by most of the tools
• Need to copy the endpoint everytime from waypoint to my browser
• It forces me to install a server

ConfigCat has done the job, and has been great to work with.

Just everything from the website to locating what i need (docs) specific to my platforms is super easy. Not to mention the support articles answering previous questions

They have a community Slack channel that is open to anyone. They always seem to have people in there, even over the weekends and are always happy to answer any questions you have,

At iBinder we searched for and vetted several suppliers of a feature toggle service to handle feature toggling in our production environment. In addition to our functional requirements, it was crucial for us to find a partner that could deliver an EU-compliant service. We finally decided to sign a service agreement with ConfigCat. This has been a real success story for us – in addition to being compliant, ConfigCat delivers an amazing, flexible, and reliable service. They continue to impress by also being very transparent and having a fantastic support and they are very solution oriented and accommodating when it comes to our feature requests etc. We have now used ConfigCat for approximately 2 years and we give our warmest recommendations to anyone who needs a stable, reliable and EU-compliant feature toggle service.

As waypoint is developed by HashiCorp which is also a developer of teraform , the trust was already there . Moreover the simplicity of ease of access made our choice even more clearer against its competitors. The competitors were good but weren't able to compete with the versatility and suite of application and functionality provided by WAYPOINT.

• Allowed us to migrate seamlessly from a major customer communication system to another, reducing end-user friction and production bugs by being able to turn features off if they didn't work as intended.
• We went from zero experimentation to running 10-20 experiments concurrently across systems. Engineering teams are thinking in an experimentation mindset.

• ROI was good as team was able to adapt to it in very less time
• We were able to setup our hybrid cloud environment within 2 months smoothly
• we created lot of POCs with waypoint which helped us procure a lot of customers
