Huawei is priced lower than most competitors. It is one of the most economical price slabs. Normally, these firewalls' equipment is not sold individually. People usually buy enterprise equipment like WiFi devices, PoE switches, and firewalls. In these cases, Huawei offers very good discounts.

Since we are a charity organization in our region, the prices for the renewal costs are a little bit higher than the initial product cost. The pricing is a bit above average. We are using an additional feature as a WAF. This is beyond the standard license.

The pricing is okay, however, support comes as a separate contract, and, if it expires, it can cause issues like what we are facing right now, where you need support and you don't have a contract in place and therefore can't get the help you require. It's costly, in terms of the support contract. We'd prefer a solution that allowed us toe update or upgrade incrementally and had the support there and ready to go. In our case, as well, it's a whole setup and not just an appliance, which is maybe why the pricing is so high and why we are facing difficulties.

The pricing is quite cheap compared to other NGFWs like Palo Alto or Cisco.
It's very cheap. It's significantly cheaper than Cisco. If a Cisco license costs $100, the Huawei equivalent is about $10. That's the difference.

I rate the pricing a five out of ten.
The solution isn't cheap. It's market price.

I believe that we are entitled to a one-year extension on our licensing.

The price of the license of this solution is high.
The licensing was a cause of concern for us. The price ended up being quite high. We weren't expecting it.
I don't deal with the licensing process, so I can't speak to the pricing of the solution. I am unsure as to if it is too expensive or not.
