Developers and DevOps teams need to support the continual flow of code from the individual developer’s machine to the organization’s production environment. These applications are typically assembled using a blend of open source, proprietary, and third party software, with dependencies on many shared libraries and packages. Software dependencies have their own set of dependencies, resulting in long chains of dependencies and an explosion of binaries to keep track of. To make things worse, this web of interconnected software has to flow through different software development platforms and tools, which can bog down the workflow of your software releases. Developers need to trust these shared components, and DevOps leaders need a central access and management point for component usage in your software development lifecycle. JFrog Artifactory is repository management software that gives you a single source of truth for sourcing, storing, sharing, and deploying software components. Artifactory bridges the gap between the development teams’ desktops and the organization’s servers, load balancers and databases hosted on production systems. Artifactory provides stable and reliable access to repositories that store a large number of common artifacts and binaries across different environments. These assets are securely stored and access is controlled based on fine grained permissions and role-based access control. Actions done to a repository can be traced back to a user. To simply access and address performance and availability issues, repositories and binaries can be locally cached. Artifactory supports 30+ package types (such as Maven, Git, npm, NuGet, PyPI, PHP, Golang, and more), artifacts, and their corresponding metadata. Artifactory is also used as a full-featured Kubernetes registry, serving as your Docker container registry and your Helm Chart repository. Artifactory easily integrates with all major DevOps tools and CI/CD platforms. > > Verdict: Rated **4.6/5** by 19 users.

Artifactory facilitates our internal deployments when there are new dependencies. It can also be configured as a mirror repository for public packages. Artifactory integrates with most DevOps tools. It has built-in directives for creating \& releasing builds, artifacts \& pipelines. > > **Cons**: Setting up protected repositories is quite challenging. UI responsiveness still needs much improvement. Recovery process is a bit time taking even for experts. > > JFrog Artifactory is our internal build deployment repository. It's sophisticated \& able to handle large data flows easily. It also supports next-gen CI/CD pipelines which is an added bonus\! ----- ### "The Best Binary Repository" — 5.0/5 > **Gil** | *13 April 2020* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We use the WebDAV shares functionality to our source control so when a developer commits/delivers code and binary to the source control (RTC) it moves the binaries to Artifactory so it keeps the source control safe from binaries. I also like the support for all types of packages including Conan C/C++ packages. It has a connector to almost anything including Jenkins, Docker, K8S, etc. > > **Cons**: The free/open source version lacks functionality comparing to it competitors such as supporting comiting more than one file and some packages support. > > It's very intuative and a standard of binary repositories, the basic verion supports all packages and Jenkins and other tools. Highly recommended\! ----- ### "Perhaps Not Needed, But Interesting?" — 4.0/5 > **Daniel** | *16 July 2019* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I'll admit that I've been very intrigued by the fancy digital mapping used in JFrog's general interface, and especially so in Artifactory. Cool graphics let me know exactly what all my information is doing or going, and is intended to provide clarity. > > **Cons**: The software provides so much clarity that I'm not actually sure if I need it\! Seriously, it's a cool product, but the features are so automatically included in other products that we already use... it seems like an unnecessary add-on. > > Cool graphics, easy to understand, but ultimately not needed. ----- ### "Software engineer" — 4.0/5 > **marc** | *12 May 2025* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great tool for managing and distributing binaries and software artifacts > > **Cons**: From my use case i dont see a glaring con. Overall, a great product ----- ### "Securely store and scan all your container artifacts with Artifactory\!" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *31 July 2022* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: 1. X-Ray scanning: scans your container images which are stored on Artifactory and then publish results for the developers use. Admins can build policies to restrict allowance of vulnerable images and set thresholds. 2. Categories for repositories can be built: Local vs remote vs virtual repos can be created which is very usful. You can even onboard remote repos on your central artifactory instance and also create virtual repos which include both local and remote. > > **Cons**: GUI for artifactory is not that great. One can simply get lost in tons of options and strugle to find the right menus. This increases the learning curve for the application which is frustrating at times. However, great documentation is available on vendor's website which helps a lot to find solutions. > > We are using artifactory for storing all our container images and even gold standard images are well. We have different repo's for different use cases and IAM is built on top of artifactory to restrict access to sensitive images. X-Ray scan is also used in our CI/CD pipelines to make sure secure and quality images are being developed. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/267181/artifactory?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/267181/artifactory) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
