 title: How to use custom activation strategies
 ---
 
+:::tip
+
+Use custom activation strategies only for cases where [strategy constraints](https://docs.getunleash.io/reference/strategy-constraints) don't give you enough control. 
+
+The downside of using a custom activation strategy instead of constraints is that you need to distribute the code of your strategy with Unleash client SDK while on the other hand, [strategy constraints](https://docs.getunleash.io/reference/strategy-constraints) work without any extra code or maintenance.
+:::

 This guide takes you through how to use [custom activation strategies](../reference/custom-activation-strategies.md) with Unleash. We'll go through how you define a custom strategy in the admin UI, how you add it to a toggle, and how you'd implement it in a [client SDK](../reference/sdks/index.md).
 
 In this example we want to define an activation strategy offers a scheduled release of a feature toggle. This means that we want the feature toggle to be activated after a given date and time.

 It is powerful to be able to turn a feature on and off instantaneously, without redeploying the application. Activation strategies let you enable a feature only for a specified audience. Different strategies use different parameters. Predefined strategies are bundled with Unleash. The recommended strategy is the gradual rollout strategy with 100% rollout, which basically means that the feature should be enabled to everyone.
 
-Unleash comes with a number of built-in strategies (described below) and also lets you add your own [custom activation strategies](../reference/custom-activation-strategies.md) if you need more control. However, while activation strategies are _defined_ on the server, the server does not _implement_ the strategies. Instead, activation strategy implementation is done client-side. This means that it is _the client_ that decides whether a feature should be enabled or not.
+Unleash comes with a number of built-in strategies (described below) that can be enhanced with [constraints](https://docs.getunleash.io/reference/strategy-constraints) for fine-grained control. For more advanced use cases, where constraints do not fulfill your needs, you can add your own [custom activation strategies](../reference/custom-activation-strategies.md). However, while activation strategies are _defined_ on the server, the server does not _implement_ the strategies. Instead, activation strategy implementation is done client-side. This means that it is _the client_ that decides whether a feature should be enabled or not.
 
 All [server-side client SDKs](../reference/sdks/index.md#server-side-sdks) and the [Unleash Proxy](../generated/unleash-proxy.md) implement the default strategies (and allow you to add your own [custom strategy implementations](../reference/custom-activation-strategies.md#implementation)). The [front-end client SDKs](../reference/sdks/index.md#front-end-sdks) do not do the evaluation themselves, instead relying on the [Unleash Proxy](../generated/unleash-proxy.md) to take care of the implementation and evaluation.

 **Custom activation strategies** let you define your own activation strategies to use with Unleash. When the [built-in activation strategies](../reference/activation-strategies.md) aren't enough, custom activation strategies are there to provide you with the flexibility you need.
