Find out in this report how the two Container Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
It definitely saved time and manpower.
Rather than dealing with three employees, after implementing SUSE Rancher Manager, we are able to do it with a single employee, which ultimately saves the cost.
The end-to-end deployment was at least 30 percent cheaper than OpenShift, which was the biggest criterion since customers are cost-conscious.
When we need clarifications, we contact our account manager, and they arrange demos.
On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate the technical support of JFrog Xray an eight because they are very knowledgeable.
The customer support is very friendly, and they are very fast in addressing the issues.
Since we were the partner for deployment, customer support was especially robust from the presales team at SUSE.
SUSE Rancher's customer support is performing well.
According to my use case, it is highly scalable.
SUSE Rancher's scalability is working with high performance, and it can handle growth and additional clusters easily based on my experience.
It uses HPA in the backend, so horizontal pod autoscaling is by default inherited in SUSE Rancher.
SUSE Rancher's scalability is effective; I do not think there is an issue with it.
I use JFrog Xray primarily for security purposes, and I find it reliable.
We did experience crashes, downtimes, and performance issues with JFrog Xray.
The tool is working fine with SUSE without any downtimes, technical issues, or critical errors.
There are some areas where it can improve, such as on the stability and reliability side.
SUSE Rancher is stable, and I have used it for monitoring my Kubernetes cluster.
When we have given a very long tag, it doesn't work as expected and requires excessive scrolling.
somehow you need to adapt your GitLab pipeline and turn them into JFrog pipeline, and this is something they don't really advertise at first—you're obliged to use the JFrog CLI.
X-ray needs improvement in supporting more than one database, as it currently only supports PostgreSQL.
The most pressing issue that I found in SUSE Rancher is that it is a bit slow. Compared with Komodor, it is very slow.
I wish the container could be more lightweight so that anyone can test and verify SUSE Rancher Prime.
One of the major challenges I faced with SUSE Rancher was during a POC for one customer who was using VMware. There was a significant challenge between VMware CSI and SUSE integrations.
JFrog Xray provides a free trial of 14 days.
The basic scanning capabilities come with Artifactory, however, curation requires additional licenses.
Rancher is free of cost for us as it is open source.
It is a very good tool to use, and it has a very good costing structure.
Licensing, which is per unit based, was straightforward.
The most valuable features of JFrog Xray are its curation capabilities, its native integration with Artifactory, scanning for vulnerabilities, and license compliance features.
The policy-driven approach of JFrog Xray helped me maintain security standards by integrating it in the development pipeline.
With other registries such as ECR, we can use the images only in the AWS cloud. With JFrog, we can use this registry from any cloud or work locally as well.
We use Rancher Desktop for local development, testing APIs locally, and it helps to seamlessly publish to the cloud.
SUSE Rancher has impacted my organization positively by enabling us to identify issues before they happen through monitoring utilizations and node pressure.
The openness helped in integrating the existing tools with SUSE Rancher itself, which was the biggest use case.
