The pricing tends to be expensive. As premier partners, we get good deals, however, without such deals, it is usually quite costly. The cost also varies based on the plan that clients choose.
The price is high compared to other solutions like FortiWeb. I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with one being cheap and ten being expensive.

I rate the solution’s pricing a seven out of ten. Some solutions are cheaper than Imperva. Imperva’s pricing is a bit higher in the market since it offers a full-blown WAF.

The pricing is somewhat expensive. It is actually a huge investment when compared to other countries. Not only that, but Imperva went on to separate the WAF and DAM management gateways, making it so that each would have to be managed and licensed separately, incurring the cost of additional investments. On a related note, there was another licensing issue we encountered where we had a subscription for account takeover prevention features, but these features had been moved by Imperva from the on-premises instance to the cloud. Since we had not moved to the cloud at that point, we did not have access to these features anymore.
Licensing can range from one to twenty thousand dollars annually. Additionally, some features, including software support, require an annual subscription as well.

I'm not sure what the exact licensing costs are for the solution. I can't speak to the pricing. It's not part of my responsibilities to cover sales or billing.
