Product Description

Flagsmith combines the concepts of feature toggles with the flexibility of remote config. Rather than just switching features on and off, you can configure them for individual segments, users and development environments.

What do you like best about Flagsmith?

Flagsmith is pretty simple to use, it has all the basics feature but also powerful enough segmentations, integration for clients is easy and does the trick. We are a small startup and we didn't have any limitation but I also worked in big orgs with not that powerful feature flagging systems where flagsmith could have been used instead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flagsmith?

The UI / dashboard is intuitive, perhaps I would like the environment to be merged so that you can create a flag and without switching around you decide the values for each environment.

the SDKs could be more complete, they are quite flexible as it only exposes the basics but sometime I wish we had a few-liner solution that takes care of caching and loading the flags without opening to mistakes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flagsmith solving and how is that benefiting you?

We mostly use flagsmith for continuous delivery, to turn off features that are in development and do incremntal rollouts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Flagsmith?

Flagsmith has been an incredibly useful tool for me in the past year. I have used it for more than 5 projects of mine. The projects are based on different tech stacks like Java, Python, Go, JavaScript and the integration was extremely seamless. These are large size projects with multiple features.

The best part about it is the extremely low latency and high availability of the system. The local feature flag evaluation mode proved to be a game changer, allowing me to quickly check all feature flag values without any additional delay.

Flagsmith has made feature flagging and A/B testing mechanism so simple to implement that it is the first name which comes to my mind now when I hear about Feature flagging. They already support most of the programming languages and are building so many new integrations, that everytime you visit their website there is something or the other that's new.

The Flagsmith UI is also so easy to understand and get onboarded which makes it super convinient to use by both developers and non technical folks.

I would highly recommend everyone to use Flagsmith for their projects and save a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flagsmith?

Nothing at all, I love the way they are expanding and would love it see it growing always. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flagsmith solving and how is that benefiting you?

Flagsmith has made feature toggling so easy to do that all my new feature rollouts are gated behind a Flagsmith Feature flag. The toggling is so easy to do that Product and Design team is independently able to play around with A/B testing and gather the metrics, reducing developer involvement further.

It helped me avoid the whole burden of setting up a new server to manage my application's feature flag configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
