How does NetOpsGuard pricing compare with ManageEngine NCM?

ManageEngine offers Network Configuration Manager (NCM) as a dedicated configuration management product. Its Professional Edition annual subscription prices are publicly listed at US$238 for 10 devices, US$958 for 50 devices, and US$1,318 for 100 devices (2-user packages).

Managed-device tier NetOpsGuard introductory annual price ManageEngine Network Configuration Manager Professional annual subscription
50 devices US$299 US$958
100 devices US$599 US$1,318

For the same 50-device count, the published ManageEngine NCM price is US$659 more per year than the introductory NetOpsGuard Professional price. For 100 devices, the difference is US$719 per year.

NetOpsGuard also makes TACACS+ device administration policies, RADIUS, AD/LDAP integration, security audits, and SSH command jobs available in its product. ManageEngine NCM provides dedicated network configuration functionality. This should be understood as price and product-scope context, not a claim that the two products have equivalent NCM coverage or support.

Comparison note: ManageEngine’s prices are for its separate Network Configuration Manager Professional Edition, based on its published annual subscription store listing (checked 13 October 2026, USD, 2-user packages). NetOpsGuard’s prices are introductory proposed annual licence rates offered directly by the maintainer, subject to confirmation at ordering. This is a pricing comparison, not a feature-equivalence or independent performance claim: device/OS support, NCM functions, enterprise maturity, support terms and service levels differ. Vendor prices can change; check the official ManageEngine store before making a purchase decision.

What is included in a NetOpsGuard licence?

Available functionality depends on the installed version, daemon build and device OS. In particular, verify unattended NCM backup scheduling in your actual environment rather than assuming a configured schedule has run. Per-command RADIUS authorization is not equivalent to TACACS+ command authorization. Product limitations.
