Pricing Analysis

Overview

Palo Alto Networks Prisma Cloud is credit-based - you buy credits and consume them across modules (CSPM, CWPP, IAC security, etc.). Credits are typically $0.40-0.80/workload/month equivalent. No simple per-seat or flat pricing. Budgeting is genuinely complex without a detailed sizing exercise.

Which Plan Is Right for You?

$undefined/undefined

Contact Palo Alto account team. If you are already a Palo Alto NGFW customer, push for credits as part of your existing renewal. Cross-selling discount can be significant.

$undefined/undefined

Entry-level cloud security module. Good starting point to understand the credit model before expanding to full CWPP/CSPM coverage.

$undefined/undefined

Full platform with all modules active. Required for cloud-native application protection across your entire estate. Negotiate hard - Palo Alto has aggressive discounting in competitive deals.

Our Verdict

Feature-rich but the credit model makes cost prediction annoying. Wins for Palo Alto shops that can bundle with firewall contracts. Wiz and Orca are simpler to evaluate and price.
