The plans
What SearchBlox charges
SearchBlox lists a self-managed single-server licence at $25,000 per year, alongside a three-server cluster and managed Hybrid Search. Your bill is built around the package, its server arrangement and, for managed search, document and monthly search allowances.
Self-managed single-server
$25,000 per year
Hosting and operating your own server still need a plan.
Self-managed three-server cluster
$75,000 per year
Compare this package with the availability your business requires.
Managed Hybrid Search
$24,000 per year
The package includes document and monthly search allowances.
How the bill is built
Annual server licence
The self-managed single-server package is listed at $25,000 per year. This is an annual licence price, and hosting and operating your own server still need a plan.
More servers
The self-managed three-server cluster is listed at $75,000 per year. Its higher price is tied to a three-server package, so include your availability requirements when comparing options.
Managed search allowances
Managed Hybrid Search is listed at $24,000 per year, with document and monthly search allowances. Check those allowances against the amount of content and search activity your team needs.
Included platform capabilities
The self-managed package includes connectors and scheduled crawlers. The platform bundles keyword, vector and hybrid retrieval, while the listed package includes premium support and identity integration.
A year of SearchBlox
What the annual prices add up to
SearchBlox lists the self-managed single-server licence at $25,000 per year, the three-server cluster at $75,000 per year and Managed Hybrid Search at $24,000 per year. These are vendor list prices, not a confirmed amount on your invoice. The package you choose drives the annual bill.
Underneath the bill
What you are really paying for
Several ways to search
The platform bundle includes keyword, vector and hybrid retrieval. Your comparison is not just about finding documents, but about which of these search methods your team relies on.
Content collection
The self-managed package includes connectors and scheduled crawlers. You are paying for ways to collect content from sources, so identify which sources your team uses before comparing alternatives.
Operations and support
The listed package includes premium support and identity integration. A three-server cluster is also available for businesses with availability requirements, at a higher annual list price than the single-server package.
The owned alternative
An owned version built around your records
Enterprise DNA builds your version of Document Search around how your business runs, brings your SearchBlox data across and runs it for you. It uses a database you own. The price is one setup fee, then a monthly retainer. For a CSV collection, the free version can import the original source CSV with an explicit column mapping, and you can run it yourself.
