Featured Reviews

JK
Staff Infrastructure Engineer at a manufacturing company with 201-500 employees
Centralized research workspace has streamlined GPU access and simplified remote collaboration
The best features Coder offers include easy integration into a remote environment that is accessible from everywhere, VS Code integrations, and AI integrations. The AI integrations I mentioned include various ways people access AI, such as using Cursor and Claude with various models. We have fairly extensive licensing as we are a biologics company, so the integration with Anthropic's Life Sciences has been wonderful as well as the integration with cloud workflow. Coder has positively impacted my organization by providing a central place for people to run their research and enabling us as administrators to focus on one aspect of researcher interactions with our clusters, so we do not have to provide much education or options for integrating their workflows into our clusters.
VB
Development Senior at a financial services firm with 5,001-10,000 employees
Supports a wide variety of packages with robust security features but needs tighter cloud integration
The best features of JFrog Artifactory include the core functionality of package management and software management, along with scanning capabilities to prevent vulnerabilities from being introduced. The metadata management feature was particularly useful for managing packages within JFrog Artifactory. We utilized Xray integration with JFrog Artifactory, which was instrumental in managing vulnerabilities overall. JFrog Artifactory has robust functionality in terms of access control, which helped us ensure minimal access to various artifacts. I would rate it eight out of ten because it is a great product that is widely used in the industry. It has excellent features from an artifact management perspective and maintains good integrations.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Coder is very stable and incredibly reliable."
"Coder is a strong solution for developers who want a consistent cloud-based and repeatable development environment."
"As for specific outcomes about the positive impact from expanding to four or five verticals, we have achieved faster deployment speeds, faster time to market, and lower pipeline failure rates."
"JFrog Artifactory has positively impacted my organization by centralizing artifact management and improving consistency across builds."
"The feature that I like is Permission Targets. If I want to give permission to only deploy the cache, I can give that permission to a set of users. Similarly, if I want to overwrite an artifact with the same name from the same pipeline, I can give permission for that as well to particular users."
"The best features JFrog Artifactory offers are a unified store for our builds, Docker, and everything, and its integration into CI/CD, which is quite smooth for us as we are using it across several different repositories and two different package types including Go and Java Spring Boot."
"JFrog Artifactory has helped us scale faster and is a highly available, robust artifact repository that boosts our confidence in production."
"Artifactory has helped us modernize, and that's something that we can't do without."
"The most valuable feature I have found is the JFrog CLI."
"The package registries have been helpful. GitLab, our previous solution, wasn't managing that well."
 

Cons

"Coder can be improved by making setup easier for users who are not very experienced with infrastructure or Terraform style."
"The most significant thing that I can express is that upgrading JFrog Artifactory to the new version is a bit cumbersome and it is a tedious process."
"It's an enterprise product that acts like an enterprise product. In other words, it's not a product where they focus on user experience."
"JFrog Artifactory could be improved for simpler workflows without dedicated infra teams or dedicated DevOps, as it could be difficult to configure."
"In some of the latest versions of JFrog's SaaS solution, they changed the user interface, the SSO settings, how you interact with them over API, and how you generate tokens. It was very confusing for me. The overall user management is very complicated."
"I would like to see written technical support instead of having to contact them directly."
"Maybe around user experience, I think one improvement could be the UX, which shows its age, as it has not changed for a bit, but other than that, it is fine."
"Currently, JFrog Artifactory doesn't have AI features, which is an area they could update in the future."
"JFrog could improve this product with tighter integration capabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I am not aware of its cost, but it is worth investing in this. My guess is that its price is not much because we generally prefer open-source solutions, and if we are investing, we don't go for expensive ones. Our selection is based on the market demand and needs, and we invest only if something is worth the cost."
"It is a bit expensive. It could be a little bit lower or have an a la carte option because, in our case, we had to go to the next version of Enterprise X because we needed one feature, which was more than three projects. We don't need all the other capabilities, but we're paying for all those. It's almost twice the cost of the previous version. So, it would be nice to have something along those lines."
