Choosing the Right Product Tier

NxtFireGuard is available in four tiers. When choosing, consider your network size, the number of devices you want to monitor, your expected alert volume, and your support requirements.

Tier Comparison#

Considerations#

Traffic Sensors determine how many network devices can actively feed live traffic data into NxtFireGuard for analysis and automated blocking. Size this based on how many firewalls, routers, or monitoring points you want to cover.

IP-Alerts and IP-Bans per second are the rate limits for how quickly NxtFireGuard can process incoming threat signals and enforce blocks. High-traffic environments should ensure these limits comfortably exceed their peak alert volume.

Blocklist Aggregators let you combine multiple blocklists into a single URL, simplifying configuration on your firewalls. In the future, aggregators will also provide access to public community blocklists — so this limit will effectively control how many public blocklists your organization can subscribe to.

Data Retention affects how far back you can search and analyze threat events in the dashboard. Choose a tier that aligns with your compliance or audit requirements.

Annual and Enterprise Billing#

Annual billing is always handled as an Enterprise plan with custom pricing. If you want to pay annually or need limits beyond the Standard tier, contact us for a tailored quote.

Not Sure Where to Start?#

Start with Basic — it is free and requires no payment details. You can upgrade at any time from your account settings as your needs grow. If you outgrow Basic and are unsure between Starter and Standard, the main deciding factors are the number of Traffic Sensors you need and your expected IP-alert volume.
