Pricing and Cost Advice | |
It has a low price. It is not that expensive. Pricing is good. Most of the costs are in the UTM (IDS/IPS, virus scanning, etc) subscription. Palo Alto was nice, but much more expensive. We were able to lower our overall operating costs over a three year period by 25%, mostly recovered from maintenance/support costs. Small enterprises or telco have variant licenses, and this licensing should be improved. I would say about $20,000 for a SRX650 with IDP licence. Pricing is very good, not expensive. | Information Not Available |
