Nando's LaunchDarkly integration: shipping faster, experimenting smarter

We worked with Nando’s Australia and New Zealand to optimise their platform with LaunchDarkly, speeding up releases, reducing technical debt and giving them the ability to deliver more relevant, personalised experiences for their customers.

Challenge

Nando’s existing platform was slowing them down and it was challenging to get new features in front of customers. Their process needed heavy developer involvement, making it hard to respond quickly and test new features.

Solution

We replaced the existing manual feature flagging process with LaunchDarkly, a flag management solution that separates code deployments from feature releases, making the process more flexible and reliable.

  • Controlled rollouts
    Enabled targeted feature releases to specific regions and customer segments, reducing risk of errors affecting users.
  • Instant rollback
    Equipped to quickly revert problematic features, safeguarding stability.
  • Self-service management
    Enables marketers and developers to manage features releases independently, speeding up responses.
  • A/B testing & experimentation
    Supports safer trials and data-driven decision making with the ability to roll out new features to targeted audiences.

Impact

With LaunchDarkly, Nando’s has shifted to continuous deployment, delivering more flexibility, faster turnaround times and ongoing opportunities to improve the customer experience.
