"Cost effective and easy to integrate"
What do you like best about Cloudsmith?

We've been using Cloudsmith to host our private Conan recipes and packages and it's been working great. We compared including JFrog but found Cloudsmith to be the most cost-effective for our needs.

It was easy to integrate into our existing workflows and ubiquitious once setup.

We had to reach out to support for an issue that arised from a particular use case we had for Cloudsmith and they were prompt to respond and have been keeping us updated through its resolution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudsmith?

We have been using it for about 8 months now and have not had any issues with Cloudsmith that would make us dislike it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hey Ernesto,

Thanks so much for taking the time to write a thoughtful review. So nice to hear things your Conan registry is working out well 💪

Support is super important to us here - we never want our users to be blocked. Please keep in touch, and if you have any feedback or suggestions they are always welcome.

"Best of the bunch"
What do you like best about Cloudsmith?

Cloudsmith provides a simple UI to configure multiple internal and external repositories for various projects and repository types. We have some configured for our internal development uses and others for distributing artefacts and container images to customers.

We moved to Cloudsmith from Sonatype Nexus repository OSS to gain support and move to a hosted solution. The onboarding was simple, and it was easy to get our CI pipelines integrated with the service.

I particularly liked that Cloudsmith can handle the signing of RPMs, which previously was cumbersome and prone to breaking in our automated pipelines.

The ability to throttle and limit individual entitlement tokens has also been a key tool for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudsmith?

When we first started using Cloudsmith, on paper it seemed like it ticked a lot of boxes, with security scanning, audit logging and it would allow us to simplify all our disparate repository services into one. As we are a small ISV, we opted for the Pro plan, as $700 per month to host some artefacts seemed like a silly amount of money. We understood the usage-based limits of our plan; however, we quickly realised that many of the features we liked about Cloudsmith also required the next tier plan. Even things as simple as audit logs to identify excessive bandwidth use.

Unfortunately, looking at the cost of artefact management solutions, it seems that this pricing is the norm. Whilst we like what Cloudsmith offers, the value for money doesn't quite stack up in the way it is currently priced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Glenn Weinstein of Cloudsmith

Thanks Ryan for the valuable feedback - we're so glad Cloudsmith has proven to be a useful alternative to Sonatype Nexus. RPM signing and entitlement tokens are two deceptively powerful features and it's a thrill to hear how much value they're providing for your team.
