The pricing appears to be cost-effective, and the cost is quite reasonable within Bangladesh and other countries, though it may vary based on global currency fluctuations. Currently, we have challenges related to product delivery and meeting the delivery schedule. It would be beneficial if we could improve the production lead time, making it shorter.
The pricing is okay. It's moderate. I'd rate the pricing five out of ten. I'm more of a technical person, not in sales. I do not know the exact cost of the solution. I'm not sure if there are extra costs associated with the product beyond the licensing fees.
I find the price to be reasonable for an enterprise-level solution. Juniper has recently changed its licensing model. The licenses are annual. The advanced security functions are an additional fee.

The pricing is very inexpensive which is the main reason I bought the solution. One device costs around 50 EUR through the University's vendor who is modernizing our network.

This is a cost-effective solution because the price is very reasonable, and some of the features are available at no extra cost. That's the beauty of Juniper. We have a perpetual license, which comes with the device. Once we purchase it, we can continue the service for three years. When the three-year warranty expires, we have to sign a new agreement with the OEM.
I'm not sure we are satisfied fully with the pricetag of Juniper SRX, but we understand why the dealer prices it this way. Still, we are not satisfied when we try to get prices for competitor products. Sometimes, it can be tense like this.

There is a component of monthly and yearly costs depending on the product. Ongoing costs are something that we need to manage and make sure that we're getting value on. But with feeding the data back in and the capability, we're hoping that it will pay for itself in the monitoring tools and the ability to go past just the different baselines of stability and scalability to actually make sure that we're proactive in keeping our networks alive.

We pay an annual licensing fee. In the past, they would sometimes be more expensive than Fortinet, however, we have noticed that their pricing has come down a bit and now they are very reasonable.

I do not handle the licensing arrangements. That's handled by management. Therefore, I can't speak to how much it costs the organization or how often we pay a licensing fee.

The price could improve, it is a bit expensive. Our licensing cost is approximately $120.00 USD annually. There are some extra fees, for example, the GUI has an orchestrator that has its own fees.
This is an expensive product. The buying power of companies in my region is such that perhaps 5% of them are pretty good. The majority of them are very bad in terms of buying power, so they look at the cost of these solutions and Juniper is not able to match the price.

One of the main reasons for dismantling this solution is that were asked to migrate the old books to the new books using Juniper and to transfer the policies and firewalls by using licensing. It was very expensive to upgrade to their products. The product itself is costly and the price of migration is very high.

We buy the license from our reseller and implement the license for our clients. With Jupiter, we sell IT services such as perimeter security. The client can buy his own firewall or we can buy it for the clients if they would like us to. We don't have a focus on selling equipment, however.
We extend the license yearly and the prices, because of the sanctions, are expensive and costs much more compared to other solutions. It's pricey compared to other locations where there are representatives and you can buy directly from them.

There was no additional licensing cost because there were no IPS services. It was just a firewall IP circuit router so they have the default licensing. We just need to renew the support yearly.

While the price of support is expensive, the price of the solution, itself, is not. The problem came about when we tried switching to Cisco and discontinued our support. In order to subscribe again later, we had to pay a reinstatement fee. We found out that if you have not used the product for a certain period of time, you have to pay for this period before paying for a new year of support. Say, for example, that you don't pay for support for one year. That year must be paid for, first, before getting support. That is why I am saying that support is expensive, in my opinion.
Licensing which covers maintenance is on an annual basis. Our customers are on one-year contracts. There are additional cost above and beyond the standard licensing fees.

The direct support with Juniper is expensive. When you stop using the solution and miss one year of payments, if you want the support back on a specific node, they ask you to pay for the year that you haven't used the node.

In terms of pricing, Juniper is in the middle. The most expensive firewall is Palo Alto. If a customer wants the cheapest price they should go for FortiGate. Juniper is in between these products.
Juniper SRX is a next-generation security solution that enables users to expand and secure their networks without incurring heavy costs or sacrificing performance.
Benefits of Juniper SRX
Some of the benefits of using Juniper SRX include:

Customers always want cheaper solutions. Fortinet is a cheaper solution than Juniper.
I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being very expensive. There is an opportunity to reduce the price.
I would rate the pricing eight out of ten. The solution is available at a reasonable and transparent price point.
In my opinion, the Juniper SRX Series Firewall is cheaper than other products. We have a five-year license for the solution in one go.
Juniper SRX Series Firewall is worth its money.
There is value for money. It offers a good solution at a good price. The price is normal for such a product.

I rate the solution's pricing as a four.

When we are in the deployment phase, we contact Juniper and they provide a budget-free code for our budgetary work.
The pricing is very inexpensive which is the main reason I bought the solution. One device costs around 50 EUR through the University's vendor who is modernizing our network.
The setup is a straightforward configuration, but the security customization may take time.
Juniper SRX is reasonably priced.
For a medium-sized organization, the cost for the licensing and implementation of Juniper SRX for 10 users would be about $300-400.
Its price is comparable to the competition.
Juniper is annually licensed. There are some additional costs for APS.

There is a licensing fee.
Its price is reasonable. In India, most of the products have a similar price. There is only a 5% to 10% variation in the price of different brands.
The price could improve, it is a bit expensive. Our licensing cost is approximately $120.00 USD annually. There are some extra fees, for example, the GUI has an orchestrator that has its own fees.
The price is reasonable.
It is on a subscription basis, mostly yearly. It totally depends on the customer. The customer gets a discount on the hardware.

The pricing is a bit expensive. They need to work on their pricing models.

The pricing of the product is pretty good. It's less than Cisco, which can be expensive for some organizations.

It has a low price.
It is not that expensive.
Small enterprises or telco have variant licenses, and this licensing model should be improved.
Pricing is good. Most of the costs are in the UTM (IDS/IPS, virus scanning, etc.) subscription. Palo Alto was nice, but much more expensive.
