    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.

    RubyGems is a great packaging library primarily because of its verbose logging information and easy to navigate system architecture. We've dealt with artifactory systems in the past for Java and JavaScript, and RubyGems just makes it a lot easier to handle the packaging and deployment of our reusable libraries. We've noticed in the past that there are times where (if all 200+ teams) are releasing at a similar time that publishing the gems can lag, but that's fairly rare.

    RubyGems has strong community support and finding issues to errors is as simple as searching for the error message you're receiving (but usually the error is clear enough without having to bother with that). Honestly, the framework is simple enough that support isn't needed much, but it has been helpful to us in the past when we have needed it.

    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.

    RubyGems is easier to use and to troubleshoot issues overall. Sometimes when troubleshooting in other systems errors are masked and it takes a trained eye or a lot of time searching through Google trying to find out what it really means. RubyGems is very verbose and allows for quick troubleshooting of any deployment problems.
