We can upload, download and delete packages. I like the way we can easily have different repositories and access them with the same TOKEN. Although, I would've prefered to not include that info in the URL. The webui is really simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Searching for packages should be really easy to do but at the moment, it's painfuly slow. I thought it could be related to peaks but unfortuntelly I was wrong.
There are 2 different scripts to install CS repos. One for debian and another for redhat alike distros. That, IMO, is confusing. The detecction phase should be done by this single missing script. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use Cloudmith to host our open source builds for Vespa.ai. The service has proven reliable and is easy to use for our current purpose. Functional REST api makes it flexible in the way we can choose to integrate with Cloudsmith. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would like to see better machine to machine integration instead of using API tokens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
For us, it's a developer first platform. That means that you have clear, full documentation and mostly every single edge case you could think of out of the box. For those questions or things that seem a bit unusual, a quick chat with support results in either resolution or a feature request which is properly considered and often makes it into the platform.

Honestly, so far I have found nothing that I dislike. No matter what the weird business case I need to support, cloudsmith has my back. When we first started using it I assumed that there would be dead ends but I have yet to find them! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cloudsmith has great CLI capabilities - we have Makefiles and scripts that run Cloudsmith CLI commands, and help us to quickly build, compile, and upload new versions of packages to Cloudsmith. We frequently have to build and update versions, so the CLI makes that easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The two-factor authentication method I have with Duo requires me to find a code, and type it in.
It'd be nice if like some other apps, it allowed me to get a push notification and just click approve, instead of having to go and find the code and type in 6 characters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The support team genuinely care about helping our business succeed.
The multi format repository concept makes it very very easy to use.
Cloudsmith is a genuine cloud native SaaS product, not an on-prem product deployed to cloud like some of its competitors, so the speed it achieves at scale is truly impressive.
Implementation was trivial as it supports native tooling in all the formats it supports.
Similarly integration is very easy because of their "native first" approach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing unhelpful about Cloudsmith. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to listen and the willingness to understand your challenges and how Cloudsmith can alleviate those pain points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only downsides had nothing to do with Cloudsmith its a refreshing example of a next generation artifactory that I wish my clients would use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cloudsmith makes working with private repositories for all kinds of tech stacks easy. It is easy to setup and somewhat fast to get used to. We use it almost daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes we still get some issues with stuff that was already working. It just stops working for an hour or two and works after a while again. Sometimes, integration into a new project can be a bit fiddely but you get used to all the different methods eventually.
I also had to regenerate my api key twice because everything broke. It was an easy fix, though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cloudsmith is a great option for private npm repos. Works well to have a private npm repo on Cloudsmith associated with an npm scope.
It's easy to set up. It's flexible. I like how there's unlimited users, but charged on disk space. That makes it very cost-effective for small teams.
Customer support is generally responsive. I've used Cloudsmith in 2 companies now - in my previous company they went above and beyond for a few issues I had. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We hit a few issues with rate limits in CI, but worked around them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to setup an account and setup a first implementation/integration. Amazing support and features that solve issues many don't even realise are problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Was built for a specific usecase, and while flexible, it may take more effort to work arround issues present (at time of review) in the solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The value is perfect for our needs. Other products overcharge for what we use as a basic artifact management product with private settings also. The team has been extremely responsive to any issues we may encounter.
*Note that this is a compensated review. It is not shaded by that, though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This was a forced migration from Bintray and Cloudsmith met most of the requirements, however it did not meet all. There are a few areas we had to write some custom code to handle, but nothing too onerous, and they provide an extensive API to accomplish that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is so easy get started with the tool! There is a description for every feature and even for 3rd party tools that just work with cloudsmith. You also have a very clear and structured overview of your repositories and packages. It works great with different package managers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We didnt really see something that we disliked. The only thing maybe which I dont 100% like is that the same package with multiple versions uploaded are not collapsable and are displayed as their own package. But I can imagine this is only a matter of changing settings we currently dont know of and it is definitly not a problem which hinders any work efficiency. It would only look a bit better if you have many different packages with different versions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
