Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop Pricing

Cloudera can become costly once you need to scale up. and more expensive than going with public cloud services. If you cross a certain threshold of nodes, you need to look for alternatives because it becomes too expensive. We are below that with around 30 to 40 cloud error compute units that we pay for.
View full review »The tool is expensive. Overall, it's not a cheap software tool, and that is why only large enterprises who are mature enough and have an architecture that is complex enough opt for Cloudera, as its ROI would make sense to such businesses. For the SMB market or customers whose environments are not that complex and do not have multiple systems running, Cloudera might not be a good option.
I believe we pay for a three-year license.

The product comes with an annual subscription, which is expensive. They are bundling technologies together. You have to pay an extra cost if you need the technology out of the base license.
View full review »The solution's license price increased five times because of CDH. We set the licensing levels like data engineering, an enterprise data hub, data science, and data engineering, and then when they moved to CDP, none of this was possible anymore. It's way more expensive now.
I rate the product's pricing a two out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive.
The solution is fairly expensive.

Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop is expensive. There are a lot of costs involved. For example: apart from the standard licensing fees, there are support costs involved, and support could be for three years, five years, etc., so support is a pretty large part of the contract.

The product’s price depends from project to project. It is more expensive than open-source solutions and could be cheaper. However, in some cases, it is less costly than open-source.

For enterprise organizations that can bear the cost, it's a good solution. A smaller company wouldn't be able to afford the licensing fees. You can get a free trial for 60 days. They'll never have a community version because they're the only ones in the market offering this kind of framework.

We do not pay for licensing because our customers forward it, so there is no need to purchase the license for the project.

Licensing price on per node basis for Cloudera seems to be pretty steep (based on the inputs we have received from Cloudera).
