User Testimonials
	npm	NuGet
Likelihood to Recommend	npm, Inc [npm]is well suited while we use it to install packages to windows, it is used to start the project from scratch to install dependencies. Incentivized Mihir Patel Senior Frontend Developer Read full review	Microsoft Whenever your projects need some packages which are available on NuGet it is easy to consume them with the help of tools such as Visual Studio, and MSBuild. We can add customized functionality to existing packages and can host them as a separate packages easily. Packages that depend on other packages are well managed by NuGet.

Pros	npm, Inc We can easily use it to install packages Incentivized Mihir Patel Senior Frontend Developer Read full review	Microsoft The built-in package explorer / manager in Visual Studio work reliably Integration with popular web-based repository manager is good Command-line options are enough even for complex use cases like publishing to private, credentials-protected repositories Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	npm, Inc Need to install dependencies for the particular package managers. Incentivized Mihir Patel Senior Frontend Developer Read full review	Microsoft Incomplete download resume in case of network disruptions Adding user friendly platform to add and update the packages Package creation option in Visual Studio Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	npm, Inc It is open source and easy to utilize and it is simply worked for me. Incentivized Mihir Patel Senior Frontend Developer Read full review	Microsoft Not really have a choice here, especially when working with .NET Framework / .NET Core. At least the built-in GUI of NuGet helps beginners get up to speed quickly. However, advanced users would be able to be more productive with Maven / Ivy thanks to the complete text-based format. Basically, people from the Java world are spoiled by a much better dependency management system. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	npm, Inc Yeah it is dependent it cause of without NPM angular doesn't work Incentivized Mihir Patel Senior Frontend Developer Read full review	Microsoft Saves a rework by sharing the common functionalities across the projects Helped to optimize the given package using a central repository Helped to make use of existing useful packages Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
