ConfigCat Reviews & Product Details

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Usage of segments does not include validations and a missing comma can break the entire segment list Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing as such I dislike about Config cat Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dead simple yet powerful 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 ha been really happy choosing ConfigCat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 to ConfigCat so we could run experiments with flags based on the user behaviour more easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Gives me the ability to add feature toggles in my code Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike.

Everything works as expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The product is really good and its integration is simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
