Pricing and Cost Advice

"Devices with multiple IP's count multiple times against your license count."
"Time savings in finding rogue devices as well as identifying potentially unwanted devices on the network has saved the organization time and money."
"5,000 user licenses will cost you between seven and eight million dollars, compared to 20 million for Aruba."
"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 setup cost, pricing, and licensing are on the high side."
"Forescout Platform is on the expensive side."
"The price of the solution is reasonable. We have paid for the license for five years. We have integration with Symantec AV for orchestration, and we have an additional license."
"The tool's pricing is expensive but reasonable."
