The main benefit of this product is the lifetime warranty, up to 99 years. For example, if your switch card fails after 10 years, and the hardware fails, it will be replaced with the very same switch or the equivalent model available at the time.

The license cost of the product is an area where the prices are neither expensive nor cheap, leaving a scope for the prices to be lowered further.
