Sentinel's slightly on the expensive side. You're paying quite a bit if you enable it for your whole network. And then, it stores lots of data in the logs. It's suitable for large organizations but not very small organizations. However, there are no additional costs apart from the licensing fees.

You need a support contract with NetIQ for maintenance. You can download the updates for the underlying operating system, which is a secured and drilled-down version of SUSE Linux. For the product itself, you basically upgrade it every time there is a new version coming out, which is usually once or twice a year.
Sentinel is a full-featured Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution that simplifies the deployment, management and day-to-day use of SIEM, readily adapts to dynamic enterprise environments and delivers the true "actionable intelligence" security professionals need to quickly understand their threat posture and prioritize response.
Sentinel is moderately priced.
I would rate the costliness of Sentinel as a seven out of ten.
The solution’s pricing is aligned with its competitors.

We receive a pricing discount because of our ongoing partnership with Micro Focus.

We inquired about getting support from the vendor, Micro Focus, but the cost was very high.
