Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing structure should be enhanced."
"We paid between $20,000 and $25,000 for a three-year license with maintenance."
"5,000 user licenses will cost you between seven and eight million dollars, compared to 20 million for Aruba."
"They base the license on the number of devices, which is quite misleading."
"It's about $160,000, but I'm not sure how long that is for or what it includes. Because we were a test base, we were provided with servers, but now, Forescout wants us to buy servers because those servers are now end-of-life or end-of-service. For our lifecycle management program, in order to get a refresh on those servers, we would have to buy servers or use our own network resources to house Forescout. Forescout takes up about 13 or 14 virtual CPUs."
"The cost of licensing for this product is quite high, but this cost covers all the features of the solution so it is a single payment for the term that has been selected."
"It might not be the cheapest solution, but you get what you pay for."
"Forescout's pricing is noted for its attractiveness, with potential discounts depending on partnership levels."
