## ConfigCat Reviews
  ### 1. Straightforward Feature Flags That Deliver Real Value

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Keith H. | Senior Director, Engineering, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2026

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

What we like best about ConfigCat is how easy it is to use relative to the value it provides. Our teams were able to adopt it quickly, it handles our primary rollout and feature management scenarios well, and the pricing is very reasonable for the capability it delivers. It strikes a good balance between simplicity and effectiveness.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

As our usage has grown, managing flags across multiple products has become more complex than we’d like. Separating flags by configuration works well, but maintaining a common set of flags across products requires extra effort. Enhancements in cross-configuration organization or shared flag capabilities would be valuable as we continue to scale.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ConfigCat solves the risk and coordination challenges that come with releasing new functionality. By allowing us to control feature rollout independently of deployment, we can test in production safely, target specific rollout scenarios, and mitigate impact if something doesn’t behave as expected. This has improved our release confidence and operational flexibility.

  ### 2. Separating deploying code from releasing features couldn't be simpler

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Miska N. | User Interface Designer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 13, 2023

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Dead simple yet powerful enough features for running feature flags. I love the straightforward approach and not trying to complicate matters when there is no need to. Me and the team have been really happy choosing ConfigCat after comprehensive comparison of DIY or other commercial solutions.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

There is no actual dislikes but what we could actually make use of would be the ability to bring Amplitude cohorts as a user segment (with the correct ID's) to ConfigCat so we could run experiments with flags based on the user behaviour more easily.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Separating deployment from releasing features. Running experiments and tech spikes.

  ### 3. ConfigCat Makes Gradual Feature Rollouts to Beta Testers Easy

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Erik E. | Tech lead, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 26, 2026

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

We use it to deploy our features to production, visible only to internal users or a select number of beta testers. Then we can move more users into the new feature as we feel confident about the set up. 
ConfigCat provides lots of options in terms of limiting the audience in different ways.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

I dont know actually. It works quite well.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Deploying features to production environment more safely by being able to test them with limited impact. This benefits us in the way that there is less risk during the actual deploy so we can spend less time checking things.

  ### 4. Flexible Advanced Targeting for Reaching Specific Segments

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** IT P. | CTO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 06, 2026

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

I like the flexibility it offers when you’re aiming for a specific segment, especially with its advanced user targeting options.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

When having multiple feature flags, sometimes it's hard to locate a specific one as the list is overloaded with info and it's hard to locate the desired one

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using configcat mostly for new releases. Also we use them for A/B tests

  ### 5. A simple product to solve a critical need

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Veterinary | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 01, 2026

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

How quick and easy it was to set up. The design was very intuitive and we were able to get it integrated in our system in a matter of weeks.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat doesn't have as granular of permissions as I would like. Ideally I block some buttons from some people in the system. I'd also like the ability to see timestamps in my local timezone.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to add feature flags across our system and deploy safely. We've been able to increase our deployment speed since we're sure that we can flip feature flags off if need be.

  ### 6. ConfigCat Is Essential to Our Development Workflow and Product Launch Strategy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 26, 2026

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat has become an essential part of our development workflow and our product launch strategy.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

The built-in analytics for flag evaluations are limited. It’s not easy to see how many users were exposed to a given flag or to track the impact of a rollout over time.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ConfigCat has given us a lot of flexibility in how we roll out features to our user base. Its segmentation and targeting capabilities let us meet the needs of specific customer subsets without affecting the broader audience, and vice versa.

  ### 7. Reliable, Always Available, and Packed with Sophisticated Features

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Antal L. | Backend Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 30, 2026

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Reliable, Available, and has sophisticated features, which cover our configuration needs.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

The logical language for flag enabling can be abused by users, by crafting unnecessarily complex queries.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Thanks to ConfigCat, we can deploy software updates without fear. If something goes wrong during deployment, with the usage of ConfigCat, alongside our convention to use it for hiding new features, we can quickly turn off newly deployed, wrongfully implemented software modifications.

  ### 8. Simple, Reliable, and Developer-Friendly Feature Toggle Tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dougllas F. P. | Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 27, 2025

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

What I like most about ConfigCat is its simplicity and ease of use. The dashboard is clean and intuitive, and integrating it into our applications was fast and straightforward. It supports progressive feature rollouts and user targeting, which helps us test features safely in production. I also appreciate that the SDKs are open-source and well-documented, which builds confidence in the platform.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

While ConfigCat works really well, it lacks some advanced analytics and experimentation features, such as deeper A/B testing capabilities and native impact reports. Pricing can also become a concern as the number of environments and users grows, especially for larger teams or organizations with more complex needs.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ConfigCat helps us reduce deployment risk by decoupling code releases from feature rollouts. It allows our development and product teams to test features in production with specific users or groups, gather feedback, and make adjustments before a full release. This results in faster iteration cycles, fewer rollbacks, and a more stable user experience. Additionally, its easy-to-use dashboard and robust SDKs help our teams stay productive without unnecessary complexity.

  ### 9. ConfigCat helps us isolate features in a multi-team continuous delivery setup

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Simon H. | CTO, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 09, 2025

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

For real continuous delivery, the development of features needs to be isolated, so that the code is ready to go to production at any time. ConfigCat does that for us flawlessly without any integration issues. Its usage has been self-explanatory and without further need of documentation or customer support. The overview of feature toggles across all environments is very helpful to see the general status of development in a project.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

The only thing that is not really easy to do with the way we use ConfigCat is the isolation of features that span multiple teams and/or services. We would need to define an overarching product for that.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

For real continuous delivery, the development of features needs to be isolated, so that the code is ready to go to production at any time. This means different services in a microservices environment can be released to production multiple times a day without needing to worry about unfinished code or unforeseen interaction of features.

  ### 10. Excellent Feature Flag system

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 06, 2025

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

- very easy and straightforward to implement with the many options they provide with their different SDKs for different languages.
- very responsive support 
- extensive options to implement more advanced feature flags and rollout strategies
- Very competitive pricing in comparison to some of their competitors

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Their Dashboard sometimes has a little confusing UI, which could use some improvements.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Previously, we used a mix of different homegrown feature flag solutions, which made it very difficult in our growing organisation to have a single approach to feature flag management.
This impacted our engineering team as we scaled up, not having a single solution made it harder to onboard new engineers.
With Configcat, we consolidate all our services to leverage it, and we have a single feature flag solution that includes a range of additional features, such as audit logging, stale feature flag tracking, and caching.
This enabled us to speed up development and roll out new features more quickly and safely, as we can use feature flags to roll out features more gradually in a controlled fashion. This improvement enhanced our reliability and customer satisfaction, as we catch bugs faster and only impact beta customers before rolling out to a broader audience.

  ### 11. Best combination of capability and price

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2025

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat is a no-frills solution in a crowded space and is easy to get started with. Our team was able to get ConfigCat integrated into our first product in a matter of a couple of days with no real road blocks. The way that ConfigCat uses deterministic methods to ensure that users are segmented properly, whether it's through the UI SDK or server-side SDK is great, as data remains on your client. This makes feature flag segments extremely fast within the product.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat is not nearly as full-featured as some competitors in the feature flag space; I could see how trying to use ConfigCat to perform A/B testing may be difficult, as the analytics/usage are not extremely robust.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ConfigCat allows our R&D team move more quickly by enabling our team in having confidence that a feature can be turned completely off at run-time.

  ### 12. Easy to use and easy to adopt in company

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Guilherme  A. | Principal Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 10, 2025

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Is so easy for new users start to create and integrate in our application

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

there is nothing that i can mentionate, because we use it and we are loving it.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Now we can rollout and control each feature we delivery, and now we can toggle a feature too when we have any problem.

  ### 13. Love the flexibility from the support team

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** German B. | Director of Product Management, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 30, 2025

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

The tool is great for the price to add to your platform out-of-the-box features for features progressive and segmented activation, pretty useful for running betas, a/b tests, etc.

Their support team is also great, highlighting where we are over the quota for instance and being flexible in us fixing certain things before asking to move to the next plan.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Nothing that I'm aware of. Maybe the tool is not as sophisticated as others to support experimentation E2E.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easily target different users and customer segments with new features.

  ### 14. Fairly priced product for bigger teams with excellent support and industry leading feature set

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 30, 2024

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

- We liked that instead of having a seat based pricing model, ConfigCat just has different packages, but all can have unlimited users. This makes pricing predictable and the product guilt-free to use with larger teams, where some members might need to use the platform very often, while others only few times a quarter or etc.
- Also having the free tier available to test everything out before commiting was crucial. During that testing period it was also very clear that their support is top-notch, always responding quickly and being there to guide us. The support materials they provide are also super helpful and the wide range of differnt SDK-s makes implementation easy. 
- Commitment to initiative like OpenFeature shows that they are serious and ready to be industry leader in Feature Flagging. 
- In terms of their product, we like the privacy and security focus and having ability to run proxies in our own infrastructure - this was a crucial element what we needed from a feature flagging platform and it has enabled us to use feature flagging platform without compromising our SLA-s.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

- The UI and UX in general could be improved. The platform is mostly used by developers, so it has not been a big issue, but people outside engineering struggle.
- We rely on many custom targeting attributes and its currently not easy to manage those, as these need to typed in manually several times, leading to typos and other silly mistakes
- Flag change review process in currently missing
- Missing integrations with product analytics tools like Heap and Planhat

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Allowing us to separate deployments from releases. Also allows us to gradually release a feature to users. Enables to do more controlled feature releases.

  ### 15. Critical to our business

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Health, Wellness and Fitness | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 27, 2024

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat is easy to use and has been rock solid for us. It has great support for multiple products, environments, and configs within them, providing centralized feature management across multiple products.

Feature flag services often price based on MAU which is impossibly expensive for a SaaS product like ours. ConfigCat has a fair pricing model based on config downloads and network traffic that makes it feasible for us to use the product. Additionally the add-ons make it easy to tailor the costs a bit before switching to a higher plan and they've been more than willing to work with us.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

The UI can be a bit complex for a first timer, but is workable once you understand the concepts. We have engineers, product managers, and support working in there.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Feature flags are critical to our ability to rapidly deliver features to our clients. Being able to test features early makes it far more likely that we deliver things our clients need and that work as intended.

**Official Response from Csilla Kisfaludi:**

> Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for the kind words! We’re so glad to hear that ConfigCat has been a reliable tool for your feature management and that our pricing model has worked well for your needs. 

We also appreciate your honest thoughts on the UI.  Your feedback is really valuable to us and helps us make improvements to ensure ConfigCat is as user-friendly as possible.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience. If there’s anything more we can do to make your experience even better, we’re always here to help!

  ### 16. ConfigCat is a Game-Changer for Our Release Flow

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 06, 2024

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat has been a game-changer for our release flow. We love how it enables us to seamlessly implement A/B testing and canary releases, which are critical for our deployment strategy. The tool is straightforward to integrate and use, allowing us to experiment and release features confidently without disrupting our users. Their support team is also a standout – always responsive and helpful whenever we need assistance, ensuring we can tackle any challenges promptly.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

One small limitation we encountered with the free plan is the cap of 100 specific email addresses that can be assigned to a feature flag. For our needs, this was a bit restrictive as we required a higher limit. That said, this is a minor issue compared to the overall value and quality of the service, which has been excellent.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We can easily perform A/B tests and canary releases using ConfigCat, which helps us boost both the productivity of the development team and test new features only with a subset of users.

  ### 17. Simple integration for powerful and controlled feature rollout

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Media Production | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 10, 2025

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Flexible for gated access to features and also for on the fly performance optimisation settings on early adopters in early stages of application rollouts

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

History not massively useful - would be great to have longer retention

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Single place for all feature config related aspects including enablement/disablement

  ### 18. Reliable feature flag solution for our engineering and PM teams

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 15, 2024

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Our product and engineering teams have been using Configcat for a number of years after evaluating it against some competitors. We have not regretted the decision and have expanded our use over the years. Setting up an org account and managing multiple products, running experiments, gradually rolling out new features and feature variants, all has been made easier thanks to Configcat.
It's worked reliably and offers all the features our team was looking for.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

At the beginning there were some team and org account management features missing, which made it a bit difficult to add and remove users and assign permissions. However these were added over time and the issue was resolved.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We're regularly releasing feature iterations or new features in our product and need a solution that lets us control what gets released to which user cohort, measuring results and reacting quickly if a release introduces issues in the product. Configcat's feature flagging solution solves this problem for us.

  ### 19. Excellent product

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Games | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2024

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

When I tested your app and sdk I found it working perfectly well. The documentation was well defined and everything went smoothly.
I used the SDK for both Flutter and Nodejs and the interaction in both cases was very simple.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Usage of segments does not include validations and a missing comma can break the entire segment list

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Feature flags and A/B testing

**Official Response from Csilla Kisfaludi:**

> Thank you for the kind words! We’re glad to hear that ConfigCat worked smoothly for you and that our documentation helped make the setup easy.

We appreciate your feedback on segments and have shared it with our engineering team for review.

Thanks again for your feedback, and feel free to reach out anytime!

  ### 20. Great product, fair pricing model, and fantastic support!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 14, 2024

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat is simple and easy to integrate while still being quite powerful.

The SDKs are feature complete and consistent across languages, which has made onboarding our team much easier.

The pricing model is fair and based on actual usage rather than somewhat artifical limits like seats, installations, clients, etc.

SSO... in every plan!

Their support is highly responsive, going so far as patching an SDK bug in an hour and even delivering on feature requests.

The Terraform provider and Public API allow control over the vast majority of the product functionality.

If you're looking for a feature flag solution, make sure to try ConfigCat!

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat may not be the best fit for organizations wanting very fine-grained access control. We were able to work around some of the shortcommings but had to make some concession.

-  SSO doesn't support group assignment via claims. (SCIM is on the roadmap, which is likely a better approach)

- Permissions are largely granted at the product and environment level. I would have also liked the config level.

- Product members can only be part of a single group per product, which makes provisioning via pre-existing organization security groups more challenging. We ended up generating and provisioning a group per member per product.

- Products and configs are very isolated. Segments can only be used with-in a single product. Flags conditional on other flags only work with in a single config.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

* Simplify coordination of release timing
* Incremental releases, targeted releases
* Kill-switch
* Maintenance mode, forced updates, graceful degredation

  ### 21. Easy to setup and get going!

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 10, 2023

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Its easy to use and implement,  which does not mean its lacking in features!

There a lot of targetting rules, segments, environment and configs all make sense, clients and sample implementations for a lot of coding languages. 

We've used split in the past and configcat to us has been easier to understand and onboard other folks while maintaining the set of features we liked from split

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

The one thing I would recommend improving is how segments are use, segments allow you to group how to target your users but you can change them and affect all environments, I found that to be a bit scary if you dont know what you are doing

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are releasing quite frequently our product and configcat is allowing us to not slow down, continue to build and ship and engage with our customers as beta testers and allow them an early view of what we are building-

  ### 22. Config cat: A smart solution

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Human Resources | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 09, 2023

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Config Cat is very easy to use.
As a software engg. I have used Feature flag like Unleash but the UI and ease that Config cat provide is unmatchable.
The SDK and customization of the flag is also excellent.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

There is nothing as such I dislike about Config cat

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Before config cat it was hard to hold features behind toggle due to ease of use Config cat in code is very helpful.
We can customize the Feature flag like TenantIds, Users etc. which is the best part.

  ### 23. Easier life with feature toggles

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 07, 2023

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Gives me the ability to add feature toggles in my code

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Nothing to dislike.
Everything works as expected.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I can test new code in Production before really releasing it to customers

  ### 24. Using ConfigCat is great

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 27, 2023

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Its usefulness for controlled release is what maximizes its utility in addition to its incredible ease of integration, especially in .NET, which is where I use it most frequently.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

The product is really good and its integration is simple.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The complexity of manually managing the configuration of applications as they grow

  ### 25. Easy to get going and scales comfortably.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 05, 2022

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Very easy to get going. Excellent value for money. Scales well both in number of API calls and in how we use it in our product and processes. The slack support is basically instant. No extra work for us to conceal privacy related data.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

The user interface to administer the flag configuration is a little bit difficult when the logic becomes on the complicated side. We actually have not come across any other specific downsides.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Separating deployment of software and activation of specific feature in time. Allowing targeted feature activation for specific users or users in certain environments.

  ### 26. Powerful, simple feature flagging!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Paul W. | Vice President of Technology at HRAcuity, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 18, 2022

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Excellent support and friendly knowledgeable staff! Super easy to use and set up. The plan we are on (Smart Plan) gives us unlimited environments and unlimited seats (allowing for great flexibility and simple setup for our many different personas within the organization).  I love the Zombie flag feature to easily identify flags that should be removed.  I also really like it will show you all uses of the flag in your codebase to help with flag cleanup and removal. Easily the best feature flagging tool I have used to date. Highly recommend this product and this company.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

I think any serious software company is going to need the smart plan (or above depending on how large they are), so I feel the free and pro tiers are not very useful.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We can now completely decouple our deployments from our releases and derisk our features releases (especially if we feel there may be a performance impact).  As it is very simple to use with virtually no learning curve, we found great adoption amongst all our departments.

  ### 27. TLDR; for choosing ConfigCat

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Marcin B. | Engineering Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 23, 2022

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

In short:
Pricing model. It makes a lot of sense to me. Especially compared to the competition which has a confusing and limiting pricing approach.
It has all core features we care for and libraries are in multiple programming languages
I love technical model with config.json being downloaded and multiple fallback options
The tipping point for us was SSO integration, working seamlessly.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Not found anything just yet. The risks highlighted by some managers about third party dependency are easily addressable and not an issue for feature toggle tools like the Config Cat at all.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Got rid of the zoo of homemade feature toggle solutions.
Got developers and product team better control on toggles. Including better security.
Improved feature completeness and performance of feature toggling.
Improved visibility of toggles used in different environments.

  ### 28. Feature toggles separated from code

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2022

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Very well-organized feature toggle platform. You can seperate the different domains or projects into products and arrange different access control per product level.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Limiting the number of products that can be created may not be the right approach.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We could completely able to switch between different code flows without any code re-deployments

  ### 29. Fantastic Product

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andy S. | CTO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 31, 2022

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

We've been using ConfigCat for a couple of years now, having implemented within all our core applications to manage our feature flagging strategy. The product itself is very flexible, enabling you to manage configuration across multiple environments and the user targeting rules will allow you to create custom rules to meet any requirement, be it targeting a specific segment, individual users, version of your code, as well as a simplistic bucketing tool to split traffic.  The zombie flag report is also a nice touch.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Nothing as yet, although I would like to see a scheduling feature.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Dynamic Feature Flag management.

  ### 30. Better AND Cheaper than LaunchDarkly

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Will G. | VP Engineering, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 31, 2021

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat is somehow both better AND cheaper than LaunchDarkly. The ConfigCat folks have been very helpful and friendly, and dealing with our various support requests. They even listen to feature requests! After I asked about high latency to their servers, they added global servers. ♥️

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

More of a feature *difference* than a problem: the model is "inside out". So rather than sending each value to ConfigCat and evaluating the flags server-side, instead the flag rules are downloaded to the client and then evaluated locally. This has pros and cons, so consider based on your use-case. For us it's fine!

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Benefits are that it's far, far cheaper than any alternative we found. The support team are really fast and helpful. Downsides are we had to write our own React wrapper, at first latency was high because the servers were not worldwide (now fixed).

  ### 31. Easiest FeatureFlagging

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 21, 2021

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

What I do like best about ConfigCat is how easy it is to to add and fetch values

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

What I do dislike the most about ConfigCat is the price and the fact that it doesn't support JSON format

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With ConfigCat we are able to feature flag and send custom values to all our mobile app features. We are now able to disable certain features based on location, users or general.

  ### 32. Excellent cloud-based  feature flag management and configuration platform.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jared Y. | Dev Manager/UI Architect, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 02, 2020

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

The ConfigCat feature set is robust and is accompanied by excellent documentation and samples. The team is responsive to feature requests, questions and problems on Slack. They take care of their customers.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

I have had no complaints about ConfigCat at all.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ConfigCat allows us to deliver incomplete features to development and testing environments while not risking production environments. It gives us the ability to turn on features for specific sets of users or do A/B testing. This has smoothed out our Git branching and our CICD processes.

  ### 33. Very helpful tool and team

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Raunak S. | Senior Software Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2021

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Their docs and support team accessibility and level of help

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

They are doing great work. I have nothing to say on this as of now.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Features deployment to end users

  ### 34. ConfigCat helps us ship code faster

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Koshin M. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 04, 2020

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat was easy to setup and evaluate. Their developer docs were excellent and we were able to get it integrated pretty easily.  We were able to start using it to rapidly release features into our production environment without risking customers seeing things before it was ready.

It allows us to rapidly release software so we can create tighter feedback between our internal teams. New features are hidden behind a feature flag so Product, Design and Engineering can work together building new features for customers. We can also add specific customers to our alpha or beta tests and get their feedback early.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Documentation can be better, especially for how to integrate this as an Administrator and to use it as a Team. It is very developer centric, which as an engineer is great for me, but the views could use a little tweaking for non engineering users like Product Managers who just want a view of the feature flags. 

Also the concept of a Product with Different Configuration spaces wasn't really documented too well and could use some explanation.

**Recommendations to others considering ConfigCat:**

They have a trial account that let's you evaluate the tool pretty well. Read the SDK documentation and try it out

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ConfigCat has allowed us to remove the fear of releasing code as part of our development process. My team and I can prototype and validate ideas quickly and get feedback from other  stake holders like Product, Design and Operations and makes it so we don't have to worry about impacting customers. 

It creates a tighter feedback loop so Engineers can get code into production faster which means iteration towards a better solution is sped up. If you are developing software products, it's extremely helpful.

  ### 35. Student experience in using ConfigCat

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Adam B. | Junior .NET Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2019

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat is is providing special plan for students, which is the same as the Pro plan. This encourages students to explore new solutions, which might be used in their future work. Administration of feature flags and targeting users is very simple. Build in expressions and rules enable to target specific features in different types of applications: web, mobile, games, business apps. Also, ConfigCat is supported by many different platforms, eg.: .NET, Angular, node.js, Andorid, iOS and the SDKs for those platforms are open-source.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

1) The user interface is a bit too overwhelming. It is simple but could be improved to be more transparent and faster managing feature flags.
2) There is no option to revoke a key.
3) Feature flags cannot be grouped.

**Recommendations to others considering ConfigCat:**

If you care about a simple configuration, very good support or you are a student and want to shine in front of classmates or teachers use ConfigCat.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It enabled me to change the rules of an application (game) without the need of redeploying it. It also enabled me to easily define different rules for development and production environment without the need of creating logic in my project.

  ### 36. Straightforward and easy to implement Feature Flags management

Nothing in particular. It offers all the features we needed.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are managing feature flags across multiple projects written in different frameworks and programming languages. Configcat was very straightforward to implement and all teams were delighted with its ease of use.

  ### 37. Best product of its kind

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Guillermo L. | Chief Operating Officer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 18, 2019

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

ConfigCat is the first solution of its kind that I had ever tried and we use it on our production solution at our company. In terms of customer service they were super quick and kind, solving our questions and concerns in a very short time.

I'll continue to use their service to quickly change settings in our websites as well as our clients'.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Nothing at all!
Everything's great and we'll continue to use it.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We were able to quickly show/hide parts of our websites by just clicking a button and without having to deploy changes.

  ### 38. Great Service, few use cases

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Elias W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2019

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

Config Cat provides a beautiful easy to understand UI. It has quite a lot of features and more than just enabling and disabling flags. Moreover the free plan allows for using the full feature capacity allowing for knowing exactly what the service can and can't do before moving to a paid plan.

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

Feature flags can be very useful for some types of applications but that is not the case for most of them. So consider if you really need before adding them to your application for no reason.

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I used to split my application in two (Had two instances running). One for public use and one for testers of the new features. With feature flags I can easily combine them into one resulting in easier maintainability.

  ### 39. Fun & easy way to configure your products

**What do you like best about ConfigCat?**

It's easy to configure our systems using ConfigCat, allowing us to ditch the SSH-in-and-change configuration method

**What do you dislike about ConfigCat?**

It requires a constant internet connection, so it can't be used for an off-line application.

**Recommendations to others considering ConfigCat:**

Use a caching agent to not have to re-request your config every time

**What problems is ConfigCat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ConfigCat has helped us ditch manual intervention into our servers and we can simply change it all on a dashboard
