The tool is a bit pricey for small businesses, but it is still bearable in terms of cost.

It has a competitive price. I rate the price an eight out of ten compared to other IPS solutions. Fortinet is a bit higher in terms of price.

The pricing is based on a licensing model for each IPS in your environment. The solution is included as part of the IPS license and automatically updates to the latest version when firewalls are updated. We are currently on a three-year licensing model.

There is a license required to use Fortinet FortiGate with all the features. It has to be updated with the threats on an ongoing basis for the signatures to prevent threats and a license is needed to receive those security updates. The price of the solution is worth it for the features.

I pay €1,200 per year for the license along with Fortinet's 81E firewall appliance. I would rate this pricing as 3/5 stars, and I believe the price is reasonably similar to its competitors in the market, being somewhere in the middle.

We purchase a license annually and it's a little expensive. We pay extra for SA. You need a decent budget for Fortigate but once you have that, it's completely scalable.

We pay monthly for licensing. You just need to pay standard costs and do not need to pay extra fees.

The licensing policies need to be fixed because if our license expires for Fortinet FortiGate IPS then all the functionality and internet do not work. However, with other vendors when the license expires the internet continues to work but some functionality is limited. Once my license expired before I even knew it, I could not continue with my business functions. If you compare the price of Fortinet FortiGate IPS to other firewalls, Check Point is priced very high followed by Palo Alto and Sophos. Fortinet FortiGate IPS price is more reasonable.

The cost of the product is reasonable. It's not overly expensive. We pay a yearly license that renews every three years. It's been two years since we set up the license. I can't recall how much we agreed to pay.
