I find the pricing of Infoblox BloxOne Threat Defense reasonable. They have recently changed the pricing model and shifted to a token-based system. I believe that this is a more modern method being utilized by all the security vendors nowadays.

Infoblox BloxOne Threat Defense can be expensive for the commercial sector, particularly in Egypt, as this sector does not have a huge budget compared to banking or oil and gas, as the regulations are not as strict.

Infoblox BloxOne Threat Defense is quite expensive, especially due to the significant increase in the subscription fee after the first year. This unexpected increase was a problem for us.
It's a pricey solution because it's for the advanced kind of customer. It's not gonna be cheap. I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive. The pricing model is on an annual basis. There are additional costs for support.

If you only wanted the DNS filtering and none of the other products built into Threat Defense, it would be nicer if they could do that a la carte since we are not really using a lot of the solution.

It is a very expensive system. You need to go over the licensing before purchase to make sure you're getting what is needed, not anything extra. There are a couple of features at an extra cost, but they are more for Infoblox, not BloxOne. So, I wouldn't really count them. We use other Infoblox products, and BloxOne bills get rolled into them.

As far as I know, Infoblox BloxOne offers pretty good documentation. Check its documentation, then do a PoC. Infoblox is very good at providing PoCs. Take your time to learn the solution before going to production with it.
We negotiated a three-year subscription. I believe they only do yearly subscriptions. When you buy the subscription, there are no additional costs to add any additional buttons.

The licensing is set up such that you pay for the number of active users that you're defending at the moment. It is similar to the model used by Cisco Umbrella.

The solution offers two types of licensing options. You can get a license on a one-year or three-year term. The cost depends on the services that you want to use and the number of users you have. They now also have a subscription where you can pay on a monthly basis. Usually, there is a cost for implementation either via the vendor or a local partner.

The product is expensive depending on all features. I rate the product’s pricing an eight out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive.
The license fee can be paid annually, once in three years, or once in five years.
