This pricing was last verified in January 1, 1970.
ArcSight pricing is custom-quoted based on deployment size and log ingestion requirements. OpenText (formerly Micro Focus) does not publish public pricing tiers for ArcSight ESM or ArcSight Logger. Organizations should expect enterprise-level pricing with costs varying significantly based on the number of events per second (EPS), data retention requirements, and deployment model (on-premise or cloud).

ArcSight Pricing FAQ
01 How does ArcSight pricing compare to other SIEM solutions?
ArcSight is positioned as a premium SIEM solution. In direct comparisons, users report Splunk Enterprise Security being considerably more expensive than ArcSight, making ArcSight a mid-to-high tier option. It is generally more expensive than options like LogRhythm but less costly than Splunk ES.
02 What features justify ArcSight's premium pricing?
ArcSight provides enterprise-grade features including real-time correlation, built-in filters and aggregation, super-indexing (bloom filters), and integrated case management with ESM. The platform handles normalization out-of-the-box through its connector framework, reducing analyst workload compared to solutions requiring custom normalization.
03 Should I co-manage ArcSight or use a managed service?
If you already have ArcSight deployed, co-management services like ReliaQuest can fine-tune and manage the platform for you. This is recommended for organizations that want to maintain their existing ArcSight investment while outsourcing day-to-day operations and tuning.
