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.

Centralized collaboration has transformed API testing and documentation across multiple teams

In terms of improvement, the UI can sometimes feel heavy for larger collections in the workspaces. Additionally, performance may slow down with complex API projects, and pricing can be expensive for smaller teams. However, it is quite suitable for bigger teams. Other areas for improvement include better reporting and analytics dashboards, and more advanced native test environment features could enhance workflow, with smoother offline support and sync handling. Additionally, better performance for very large collections would be helpful, along with more intuitive navigation for enterprise-scale workspaces, stronger reporting analytics, easier management of permissions across large teams, and more flexible automation and testing report options would be beneficial. Small usability and performance improvements would make Postman Enterprise even more efficient for larger organizations. Postman Enterprise needs better performance optimization for large enterprises, more detailed analytics user reporting, improved API governance and audit visibility, simpler permissions and access control management, faster sync and loading times for larger collections, and more advanced built-in testing and reporting capabilities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I think JFrog Artifactory is good whether we use it for small scale or large scale operations."

"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."

"For the most part, it's pretty stable."

"JFrog Artifactory has helped us scale faster and is a highly available, robust artifact repository that boosts our confidence in production."

"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."

"Having a standard solution such as JFrog Artifactory has affected productivity and collaboration positively."

"Universal package support and custom properties help my team day-to-day by making us more efficient, as we have one tool with which all engineering teams can interact regardless of their team."

"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."

More JFrog Artifactory pros

"It is stable and reliable."

"What is most valuable for me is that we can create and share collections between the team members."

"Postman is useful for API testing."

"The scripting capabilities in Postman are excellent."

"Postman is better than SoapUI when it comes to usability."

"Postman is open-source and free to use."

"Postman is a good tool for completing a sanity check or smoke test of REST APIs."

"Postman allows you to incorporate and export the test cases we create. It enables me to share the test cases with my colleagues, so I don't have to copy them into an Excel sheet. Postman lets me export the dataset and share it with my team. They can use my test case for their testing."

Cons

"I would like to see written technical support instead of having to contact them directly."

"However, because of the sheer size and magnitude of artifacts that end up getting stored on JFrog Artifactory, the tool tends to be bogged down and most of the functions also get bottlenecked because of that."

"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."

"JFrog Artifactory could be improved for simpler workflows without dedicated infra teams or dedicated DevOps, as it could be difficult to configure."

"The documentation is a bit sparse. That's our only complaint."

"I choose a nine out of ten because, as mentioned in my previous answer, it sometimes faces performance issues due to slow repository response and long download times for artifacts, which affects overall performance."

"Looking back, I think the learning curve for JFrog Artifactory could be eased, and the installation process could feel less overwhelming."

"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."

More JFrog Artifactory cons

"One area for improvement is that sometimes performance is slightly slow when we are handling large collections."

"The solution is quite complex and not so easy to understand at first glance."

"We have previously used Tosca which allowed us to verify information using authentications. It would be useful if this was also possible using Postman. In a future release, Postman should connect to DB."

"If you have knowledge of JavaScript, the initial setup is easy and straightforward. If not, it may take some time to learn about JavaScript before starting the implementation."

"It is not that easy to use and should have a more improved easy-to-use interface."

"Postman could be improved by providing options for performance testing of APIs."

"It would be better if we could integrate programming languages like .NET, Java, and JavaScript. It could also be more user-friendly."

"Something that could be better is the inclusion of another type of test, for example, end-to-end tests."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"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."

"I am using the free option."

"The solution is free for individuals, but for companies that use it across the organization, you have to pay per user."

"The solution has moderate pricing."

"I rate the price of Postman a four out of five."

"We use the open-source version. They introduced a new licensing model where your company must subscribe to their services if you're using it for business purposes. However, I think they charge too much if you're only using the basic features. It limits what your organization can do if you're not a paying customer."

"The solution's price is reasonable."

"Postman is an open-source product. It is free to download from Google."

"Unlike APIs, the solution does not require a license."
