The pricing of DX Unified Infrastructure Management is high and often a concern for customers. The cost is higher compared to other Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), which is feedback we have received from various customers.
For us, while the base price is the same, we are moving device types and are in the process of negotiating costs with Broadcom. They have a price for MSPs and also for services. We are trying to reduce the cost. However, with UIM, we are not using unlimited as we're trying to negotiate with NetOps. We have a baseline for a three-year contract. Generally, it is an affordable option. I'd rate the product four out of five in terms of cost.
Pricing for DX Unified Infrastructure Management isn't cheap at all. It's a complex tool, so you have to pay more. No one is happy with a large bill to pay, but if it's a complex product and you designed a complex solution to be monitored, it'll be your fault that you need to buy an expensive product, and that would be implicit in the design of DX Unified Infrastructure Management. Monitoring is just a small part of it. Sometimes you have to pay a significant amount of money for a complex yet very good solution.

Customers pay for the license and the support.
