Pricing and Cost Advice | ||
The upfront costs have increased, and we have been locked into this contract. The cost of changing over from it is way too high. The solution is fairly expensive, but in my experience, all of the SIEM applications that I've evaluated or looked at cost about the same. Licensing is very easy. Our CIO takes care of the billing, but in terms of price point, he hasn't complained, so it must be good. The pricing and licensing seem very reasonable. The managed service part of it feels like it gives me the equivalent of a full-time engineer for a lot less money. So, I feel it's a good value. | There are additional costs, such as the cost associated with the different hardware required for implementation and deployment. Along with the add-on apps, these are all additional costs, and they require licensing as well. In terms of additional costs, it depends on the subscription that you choose. There are plenty of options to choose from. Our licensing costs for this solution is on a yearly basis. It's too expensive. The licensing is also a little bit difficult to understand because you have to license it per event and per number of flows. QRadar is quite expensive. It wouldn't be worth it for a small business... I would like for them to lower the price. The pricing is good. IBM has subscriptions plans that run for one year. | Information Not Available |
