Overall Satisfaction with Unleash

I use it mainly for toggling off unfinished features since we follow trunk based development and use cicd for weekly deployment, we need to disable parts of code which are not ready to be released but have to be deployed anyway. We disable features on backend microservices as well as mobile and web based frontend app. Though we use server sdk for both the purposes.
  • Ease of use on Unleash portal
  • Simple and well documented sdk
  • Caching done out of the box for toggles
  • Simple sso integration which makes authentication/ authorisation simple
  • can have option to approve change requests without opening Unleash portal through email integration which would be easy for non tech product owners
  • can have option for generating audit reports with filters to check which toggles were switched on during a particular time window
  • multiple environment configuration on the enterprise version
  • sso inetgration
  • on call support
  • with Unleash in place we don't need to keep toggles in external files in aws s3 and read from there which used to make updates to toggles slow compared to real time Unleash, so it saved a lot of time

If you are writing apis and you make a logic change for eg change format of a number from showing no decimal points to 2 decimal points, and screen of your older version of ui app does not have enough space on screen which makes the ux break, instead of releasing a new version of the api you can toggle off the feature for app versions lower than the one being targetted so that api keeps responding with zero decimal points for older app and with decimal points for the newer version of the app
