No credit card required • Setup in 10 minutes • Cancel anytime
A decade of reliability. While other providers have changed ownership, raised prices, or deprecated features, CloudRepo has been serving developers since 2016. Same mission. Same predictable pricing. 99.9%+ historical uptime with zero scheduled maintenance windows.
The Hidden Cost of JFrog: Egress Fees
JFrog's pricing model punishes you for success. The more your CI/CD pipeline runs, the more you pay.
JFrog Artifactory Cloud
- Base: $150/month Only includes 25GB (storage + transfer combined)
- $1.25/GB For usage between 26-1,204 GB
- $1.00/GB For usage between 1,204-2,024 GB
- $0.75/GB For usage above 2,024 GB
Real Example: A medium-sized team with 4TB monthly transfer pays ~$3,000/month
CloudRepo
- Starter: $199/month 50GB storage + generous transfer allowance
- Team: $499/month 250GB storage + generous transfer allowance
- Business: $799/month 1TB storage + generous transfer allowance
- No Egress Fees Download as much as you need
Same team with CloudRepo: $799/month flat, no egress fees
AWS Egress Fees: The Hidden Cost of JFrog Artifactory
When you host JFrog on AWS, you pay JFrog's consumption fees and AWS charges you separately for every byte that leaves the network.
| Monthly Volume | us-east-1 | sa-east-1 (São Paulo) |
|---|---|---|
| First 10 TB | $0.09/GB | $0.15/GB (+67%) |
| Next 40 TB | $0.085/GB | $0.138/GB (+62%) |
| Over 150 TB | $0.05/GB | $0.114/GB (+128%) |
Source: AWS published rates, March 2026. First 100 GB/month free across all regions.
The double charge: AWS egress + JFrog egress
A team downloading 1 TB/month of artifacts on us-east-1 pays ~$83 in AWS egress fees. JFrog then charges another ~$1,400 in consumption fees on top. That's over $1,480/month before you've even counted storage. With CloudRepo, the same team pays $199/month in total. Rates are even higher in regions like South America, where sa-east-1 egress costs 67% more than US regions.

Migration Commands by Repository Type
Maven Repository
Update your settings.xml or pom.xml:
<!-- Old JFrog Configuration --> <repository> <id>jfrog-releases</id> <url>https://yourcompany.jfrog.io/artifactory/libs-release</url> </repository> <!-- New CloudRepo Configuration --> <repository> <id>cloudrepo-releases</id> <url>https://yourcompany.mycloudrepo.io/repositories/releases</url> </repository>
💡 Tip: CloudRepo URLs are simpler and more intuitive than JFrog's complex paths
Python/PyPI Repository
Update your pip configuration:
# Old JFrog Configuration pip config set global.index-url https://yourcompany.jfrog.io/artifactory/api/pypi/pypi/simple # New CloudRepo Configuration pip config set global.index-url https://yourcompany.mycloudrepo.io/repositories/pypi/simple/ # Or use in requirements.txt --index-url https://yourcompany.mycloudrepo.io/repositories/pypi/simple/
💡 Tip: CloudRepo supports all pip commands without modification
Docker Registry
Simple Docker registry migration:
# Old JFrog Registry docker login yourcompany.jfrog.io docker pull yourcompany.jfrog.io/docker-local/myimage:latest # New CloudRepo Registry # Note: login takes the HOST alone; the image reference adds /repositories/<repo>/ docker login yourcompany.mycloudrepo.io docker pull yourcompany.mycloudrepo.io/repositories/docker-local/myimage:latest
💡 Log in to the host alone. The image reference is what carries /repositories/
CI/CD Pipeline Update
Update your GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitLab CI:
# GitHub Actions Example
- name: Configure Maven
run: |
mkdir -p ~/.m2
cat > ~/.m2/settings.xml << 'EOF'
<settings>
<servers>
<server>
<id>cloudrepo</id>
<username>${CLOUDREPO_USER}</username>
<password>${CLOUDREPO_PASSWORD}</password>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>
EOF
- name: Deploy to CloudRepo
run: mvn deploy -DaltDeploymentRepository=cloudrepo::default::https://yourcompany.mycloudrepo.io/repositories/maven-releases 💡 Tip: CloudRepo works with all major CI/CD platforms out of the box

Frequently Asked Questions
- How difficult is it to migrate from JFrog Artifactory?
- Migration is surprisingly simple. Most teams complete the entire process in under an hour. We provide migration scripts, detailed documentation, and our support team is available to help. You'll update your repository URLs in your build tools and CI/CD pipelines - that's it.
- Which CVEs affect my self-managed Artifactory version?
- JFrog publishes fixes per branch, so a version can be inside one advisory's range and outside another's. Our Artifactory vulnerability lookup has one page per 7.x version with every known CVE from NVD and JFrog's advisories, the fix on your branch and how far behind the latest release you are. With CloudRepo there is no Artifactory server to patch, because we run the service.
- Do you really have no egress fees?
- Yes, we have no egress fees. Unlike JFrog which charges $0.75-$1.25 per GB for data transfer, CloudRepo includes a generous transfer allowance with all plans. We have fair use limits to prevent abuse, but 99% of customers never come close to these limits. Learn more about how JFrog's consumption pricing works.
- Is CloudRepo enterprise-ready?
- Absolutely. We've helped teams migrate from JFrog and other solutions. CloudRepo has a historical 99.9%+ uptime history, disaster recovery, and provides the security and compliance features enterprises require.
- What repository formats do you support?
- CloudRepo supports Maven, npm, Python (PyPI), Docker/OCI, and Raw (HTTP) repositories. Each plan includes unlimited repositories of any type.
- Can I try CloudRepo before committing?
- Yes! We offer a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. You'll get full access to all features so you can properly evaluate CloudRepo for your needs. Our team is available to help with migration and answer any questions during your trial.
Why engineering teams choose CloudRepo
“Your software is solid for being so young and we hope to consolidate our binaries from two disparate sources into CloudRepo. I am thoroughly finished with Artifactory and JFrog on the whole.”
“We use CloudRepo because we needed a closed source Maven Repository that could be easily managed to provide/restrict access to our clients, didn't cost the world to use, and that wouldn't require significant effort to set up/maintain.”
