The pricing of D-Link Ethernet Switches is cost-effective. For small data centers, it is good to have D-Link switches as the cost is less compared to other features.
People do not like paying for licenses on such a device. I don't know what the tech world thinks around the world, but it's good to have a perpetual license. People like that, especially on switches. Because a switch is not a security device. For firewalls, people have agreed to a subscription service, maybe yearly, two-year, or three-year, because of the ever-changing virus and attack landscape. But as for switches, I don't know if we will be charged, but it's good that we can have a perpetual license. Buy your device once, and with some software, it's working. Instead of putting up a license or introducing licenses, it's good to have a service contract. Someone pays some amount for the devices so they can continue getting software updates, support, and maybe device replacement.

The pricing is pretty good. It's not overly expensive. We find it affordable. We pay around $150. That's a one-time payment. There are no other additional costs.
This product is very affordable, especially compared to Cisco. One a scale of one to five, I would rate the cost a five. This is a one-time purchase with no recurring licensing fees. Technical support and all of the features are included.

The pricing is good. Most enterprise customers prefer Cisco or Juniper switches because they have better scalability and reliability. But most customers use D-Link Ethernet Switches because it is cheaper. The licensing cost is also very low.

They have cheaper ones, and they have more expensive ones. I believe the unmanaged ones are very affordable.
