Enhance security with automated vulnerability detection and private registry support
We use Harbor for Docker containers to build from our GitLab CI/CD pipeline. This pipeline then automatically pushes to our Harbor instance. We are still working on storing Helm charts in the Harbor instance as well Harbor has improved our organization's security and stability in our container…

Self-hosted and works well in hybrid SaaS environments and automation is fast without any breakdowns
In my experience, there was a bit of a learning curve at the beginning. It can be somewhat challenging to install and get started. However, once you gain some experience, working with JFrog becomes much easier. Overall, it's manageable for beginners, but there might be a bit of a learning curve. I'd call myself an intermediate user.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Harbor is its security scanning capability."
"Right now this is the leading product in this category."
"We use the solution to compile the codes before publishing them. We utilize third-party containers and codes, downloading them to the JFrog Container Registry. Developers then access it from the JFrog Container Registry, and there's a specific job responsible for running and validating all security checks, ensuring compatibility. If there are any issues or if packages require updates, we manage those updates through this system."
"It supports multi-cloud deployments across AWS, Azure, and GCP."
"We have integrated JFrog Xray, and we use it for storage purposes."
 

Cons

"There is a need for more support for public repositories, like the Google Cloud GTR, which is not as integrated as desired."
"The GUI needs to improve."
"The product should integrate better with other storage options."
"The solution's documentation available over the internet is not straightforward and customer-friendly."
"In my experience, there was a bit of a learning curve at the beginning. It can be somewhat challenging to install and get started."
"One challenge we face is related to performance. Our integration involves GitHab and JFrog Container Registry, with pipelines fetching data from GitHub and JFrog Container Registry for third-party code. However, there are instances where this process can slow down the pipeline."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of the product is free."
"The solution is expensive."
"JFrog Container Registry is a very expensive solution."
"The pricing is somewhat expensive compared to its competitors. We use the Pro version."
