Firebase

and

LaunchDarkly

Famcare

After a lot of experiments in 2021, we take the decision to start doing some A/B testing and take our experiments management to the next level. After reviewing many tools, we are more close to choosing LaunchDarkly nested of Firebase remote config and A/B testing features.

Any advice?

LaunchDarkly

I would recommend to go with LaunchDarkly, we are using it for a while. it's much powerful and we can enable/disable features for specific users and groups (designers groups, advanced users, testing and reviewing groups, investors,... etc) for other non tech A/B testing we are using our own tools that we developed in house.

Why not use LaunchDarkly for both? why did you need to develop in-house tooling for that?

This is a good question! The only reason am thinking off is when we have time to build our own tools we do it otherwise we are using third party tools. At certain point we may build our internal tool and phase out LaunchDarkly. So it's more about balancing between time, cost and efficiency factors.
