Overall Satisfaction with LaunchDarkly

LaunchDarkly is used for maintaining feature toggles for our production services. We have been using it for a year now and haven't had any issues so far. We have a toggle framework that abstracts away the complexity of Launch Darkly so we don’t actually interact with it directly. LaunchDarkly provides a clear insight into the state of your toggles in production.
  • Easy automated way to flip the state of a toggle in production.
  • Easy access to the state of a toggle in production.
  • Ability to run A/B tests using a toggle in production.
  • The framework needs to support an easy way to remove toggles in the code and in production.
  • Improved developer productivity as a result of being to flip toggles via an automated pipeline.
  • Ability to test features out in production without causing customer impact.
- Ability to create automation to flip toggles using the framework was the easiest to use.
From what I have seen, LaunchDarkly integrates well with your code and also services you might have in your tech ecosystem. We use Jenkins for automation and we were able to use it to build pipelines to automate the control of LaunchDarkly toggles in our code.

Would you buy LaunchDarkly again?

Yes

Suitable for feature toggle management at scale. It can be used to run A/B tests for your services. If your application or service only has a few simple feature toggles, then this is not the framework for you and you are better off using your own custom toggle management system.
