Buildstash vs Packagecloud

Buildstash manages software binaries from build storage through sharing and release distribution. Teams can organize previous builds with filters, labels, and automations, while local and CI integrations support automatic uploads. Releases can bundle builds for multiple platforms with changelogs and notes. Individual builds or releases can be shared through password-protected links, with optional expiry times. Public portals can publish builds, streams, and releases, including on a customer's website; private portals share selected items with external collaborators. Integrations listed include GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps Pipelines, Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, fastlane, Unity Build Automation, webhooks, email, and Slack. Storage options include AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, and other S3-compatible services. Enterprise SSO integrations include Microsoft Entra, JumpCloud, Okta, and Auth0. Buildstash lists Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, Windows, API, and self-hosted platforms. Pricing starts at $49/mo; there is no free plan, but a free trial is available.

Packagecloud stores and distributes software packages through an automated service, available in the cloud or on-premises. It supports formats including npm, APT/Debian, Maven, Yum/RPM, RubyGems, and Python packages; Alpine, Helm, and Docker repositories are also listed. Users can manage packages through a graphical interface, command-line tools, or an API, with access control and collaboration features. Listed CI integrations include CircleCI, Travis CI, Jenkins, Buildkite, and GitHub Actions, while build-tool integrations include Maven, Leiningen, Gradle, and SBT. On-premises deployments can run behind a corporate firewall or inside a perimeter network. Packagecloud says its websites and microservices use SSL/TLS encryption, and that it is SOC 2 compliant. Audit and penetration test reports are available to customers on request under a signed NDA. It also says it complies with HIPAA standards and can sign a Business Associate Agreement. The free plan includes 10 GB bandwidth and 2 GB storage. Paid plans start with Starter at $89 a month, and paid plans have 14-day trials. Bandwidth and storage overage charges may apply on paid plans.
