I wasn't involved in the pricing of it because we were just doing prototype work with it, but I was told by the upper management team that it was quite expensive. That was another reason we switched to Morpheus.

Cloudify offers a premium version and a community version. The community version has the basics. The premium version requires a license but I'm unaware of the cost.

The great thing about Cloudify is that it is open source. Prospects can download it, install it, and configure it, and really see which problems can be solved and how it can co-exist inside an existing technology investment portfolio. If you have an existing investment in configuration management or a cloud management platform, start to think about the complimentary aspects and how Cloudify can work with those tools. Once you truly understand the value that it can bring to your organization, then you can conduct an accurate ROI and decide on licensing. We would recommend that any production environment be licensed. Using open-source code without support in a live environment is not worth the risk.

Pricing and licensing are decent.
