We performed a comparison between npm and Spring Boot based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Java Frameworks solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product's most valuable feature is dependency installation."
"The most valuable feature of NPM is to trigger APMs."
"It's an open-source setting that's very scalable and easily approachable. I like that you can plug in many features to my product."
"The solution is scalable."
"The reversal build, gendered build, migrated PCA, and CT features are excellent."
"It is stable."
"The setup is straightforward."
"It gives you confidence in a readily available platform."
"The simplicity is excellent."
"Spring Boot's configuration is easy, and it has an out-of-the-box deployment."
"Spring Boot could improve its integration with the major cloud providers. Connectivity with cloud solutions isn't easy compared to other frameworks like Django and Python."
"The most valuable features of Spring Boot include being able to check all the logs and doing health checks for applications. We can also do monitoring more quickly, and use Spring Boot for production support, so when production goes up or down, we can bring up the application very quickly through Spring Boot."
"The cloud version is very scalable."
"The library could be updated."
"I would like to see compatible versions, and what new features they will be providing. If it is a useful feature I can merge it. If it is not a usable feature, then I can ignore the newer version."
"Some of the libraries that we try to use in npm have issues with security. Also, because it's an open-source solution, I think there are lots of challenges with security. So, the security layer could be improved."
"NPM can improve the package manager. For the packages we download for our APM studio to trigger our APM driver, it would benefit if we could have the latest version of NuGet Package Manager within the package manager control. For example, Visual Studio would be good. Then it would be easy for us to get the package manager from there instead of Googling it out and matching it with the current version. It would be less time-consuming for us."
"The product should be compatible with various programming languages, including both native and upcoming languages."
"Spring Boot could improve the interface, error handling, and integration performance."
"The solution has some vulnerabilities and fails our security audits, forcing us to keep fixing the solution."
"We'd like them to develop more supporting testing."
"The database connectivity could be better in terms of dealing with multi-tenant systems."
"Spring Boot is okay right now, but my team is looking for some integration where you can make a call to the JMS messaging service and other types of third-party integrations. If the integration with Spring Boot is improved, that would make the tool better. What I'd like to see in the next release of Spring Boot is its integration or tie-up with messaging servers and third-party EFPs, as that would make it very good and more competitive versus other new solutions in the market."
"It needs more applicable control for large-scale application development."
"Building a new product in Spring Boot can take a long time since the solution uses reflection. This is one area the solution could be improved."
"The cross framework compatibility has some shortcomings. With JUnit Test Runner and Spring Boot, it's really tedious to make them both work to write the test cases."
