Sucuri outperforms jQuery in 7 of 7 categories, with a stronger composite score (77 vs 73). jQuery leads in no categories.

When to choose jQuery

jQuery doesn't clearly lead Sucuri in any category on the sampled sites — pick it based on developer experience, ecosystem, or existing team skills rather than the audit scores.

When to choose Sucuri

Choose Sucuri when your primary concern is server response time and security. Its audit data shows consistent strength in these areas across the sampled sites.

How this comparison was built

Scores are medians across 1857 audited jQuery sites and 4 audited Sucuri sites in the BeaverCheck database. Every audit runs the same 100+ checks — Lighthouse performance, security headers, accessibility, SEO, server response time — against a real URL. No vendor input, no sponsorship, no affiliate links.

Small sample: one or both technologies have fewer than 10 audited sites. Treat these numbers as directional — medians stabilize around 20–30 audits per side.
