The cost is relatively high, especially for the BMC Controller application. However, the expense is justified by the standard and reliable features it offers. This product's reputation in the market is strong, providing assurance in terms of data and other considerations.

We did not compare the price of BMC Helix ITSM to other vendors. However, it has a mid-range price. I rate the price of BMC Helix ITSM a six out of ten.

The pricing depends on the contract. If you ask three different people, you get very three different answers, but I don't deal with it. The people in charge of procurement handle that.
The license that we provide to our customers is yearly. We don't offer a monthly license because we only sign yearly contracts with our customers. So you would need to get the customer's side of the story to answer whether Helix ITSM's price is fair because ServiceNow is currently capturing the ITSM market. BMC is a little bit cheaper than ServiceNow, but BMC doesn't have the same capabilities in its entry-level product at the moment. The basic version does not have the DWP features that most of our customers are requesting. When we do demonstrations, BMC uses the premium version, but customers can't afford the license for the advanced version. So they're missing some of the features they want, especially the ability to change the banners.

It is not very expensive and not very cheap. It is somewhere in-between. Some of the features are more expensive. There are also additional costs. If you want to use most of the features, you need to pay more.
Pricing on the licensing depends on how you want to position it. If you are looking for some kind of professional services form the OEM then you would have to purchase that.
