It has vast support for all packages type and the installation is fairly easy > > **Cons**: The issue will begin once you like to move from the Open Source version to the commercial one, it is pricy (again comparing to the competitors) it has a business module of per user per year cost and if your budget is limited you would find yourself with an issue of funding it. It is not the best in line with the enterprise versions out there. > > It's fairly easy to install, pricy from the enterprise version, supports all packages types. ----- ### "Automatic vulnerability detection and mitigation tool in software development process" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *August 18, 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easier to install, and use and helping our team in mitigating supply chain attacks. > > **Cons**: It has a high per-year basis subscription and is not up to the mark with the other competitor with similar costs > > I primarily used the tool to detect supply chain vulnerability to mitigate attacks for the development team. ----- ### "Powerful artifact manager, but has some rough edges" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *May 4, 2018* | Biotechnology > > **Pros**: Supports all major artifact types, such as npm, helm, docker, etc. Powerful integrations with major 3rd party tools. > > **Cons**: Open source version does not allow integrating with non-Maven deployment types, making it difficult to evaluate even for those preparing to use enterprise version. ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/171030/nexus-lifecycle) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
