I would say the pricing falls between average and expensive. It's not a cheap product. I would rate it as an eight out of ten, with one being a low price and ten being a high price. There are some additional actions that may incur additional costs. For example, one of the additional costs is the Enterprise Reporter license. It is an additional license required for reporting purposes. Infoblox DDI itself doesn't include reporting capabilities, so a dedicated solution is needed, which requires an additional license. There are many features that were previously added one by one. For any single feature, an additional license was required. But now, since they have switched to a subscription-based model, you can get a lot of services and features in one license. So there's no need to add an additional license. It's less complicated now. That's the only thing I remember from the enterprise reports or reports enterprise that remains the same.
I don't directly deal with licensing. I can't speak to the exact cost of the solution. My understanding is that, in the current market, it's a bit expensive. If cost is a big deal, then people go to BlueCat. Otherwise, if they want the best solution, then people go to Infoblox.
Network landscapes are rapidly evolving, driven by trends in hybrid and multi-cloud transformation, the IoT and distributed workforces. Infoblox is uniquely able to support organizations in this challenging environment because our solutions support DNS, DHCP and IP address management. These are the critical network services collectively known as DDI that make all network interactions possible.
The pricing is quite expensive, which is why I recommend it for medium and large enterprises and not for small businesses.
Infoblox DDI is an expensive product. Zscaler is also an expensive product.
The solution is a bit expensive for SMB customers. Infoblox's subscription includes support.

The license of the solution is expensive, not including the hardware.
