My experience regarding pricing, installation costs, and license management for this tool is that it is slightly expensive for support that is not present enough and difficult to contact.
The pricing is actually quite competitive. In Azure environments, it gets beaten by Microsoft API Gateway, but on the other hand, it offers some features that Microsoft lacks. So it really comes down to cost-benefit in the end. I would rate the pricing a three out of ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive.
It had a free version, which suited many of our needs, but not all, but we were happy to go ahead with the licensed version as well, which is the paid version. We are required to pay a licensing fee. There are no additional costs, it was pretty transparent. To be honest, I don't remember much about the license, but as far as I know, there was nothing alarming.
There are different versions and plans available depending on the requirements, so there is flexibility in terms of the pricing. Compared to other products, this is a cheaper solution.

Tyk has a whole lot of features. You could actually break them up into separate products, maybe like an ESB, the actual API, the security component with a security manager and so on.
