Quota vs. reality.
ZeroFox's entry bundle includes 250 annual takedowns. In our customer experience, SMBs handling three to ten incidents pay for far more capacity than they use.

The short version
The sticker is only the start.
Procurement data puts entry contracts at $30k to 60k, before possible onboarding and managed-service fees.
Scope beyond takedowns.
ZeroFox offers dark-web intelligence, broad social coverage and a 24/7 SOC. Teams that need that breadth in one contract are its buyer.
The quota, to scale
ZeroFox's entry bundle includes a quota of 250 takedowns per year. Here is what a typical SMB actually needs, drawn on the same dial.
- 250 takedowns/yr in the entry bundle
- typical SMB need: 3 to 10

Fair comparison
ZeroFox's strengths
What ZeroFox does well
ZeroFox operates at a scope nebty does not attempt: dark-web monitoring and threat intelligence, social media coverage, executive protection, and the Global Disruption Network, which pushes blocking across 80+ partner networks alongside takedowns. A 24/7 SOC and compliance machinery round out an offering built for large security organizations, and it reports over a million takedowns a year at a claimed 95 % success rate.
When ZeroFox is the better choice
If you run a security operation that needs dark web, social, executive and attack-surface coverage in one contract, ZeroFox is the right category.
Where ZeroFox doesn't fit
Takedown quotas.
ZeroFox's own FAQ addresses exceeding the allotment, and its bundles carry an annual takedown quota from 250 per year. At nebty there is no quota: you pay €400/$450 per success, whether that happens twice a year or twenty times.
Sized and priced for enterprises.
Entry contracts around $30k to 60k, onboarding fees up to $20k, and 20 to 40 % on top for managed services (procurement data, as of July 2026). Procurement data also shows paid add-ons stacking on top of the bundles. This pricing fits enterprise security budgets, not a company with three to ten incidents a year.
Friction on the way to a takedown.
Recurring reviewer complaints: alert noise and false positives, slow analyst review cycles, and evidence friction, with one reviewer describing ZeroFox as "always asking for more evidence when the site is clearly fraudulent." At nebty, a human verifies every case and we handle the evidence work; you send a URL.
Distance from Europe.
ZeroFox has no German site or office; its EU presence is an outsourced GDPR Article 27 representative (DP-Dock GmbH in Hamburg). The company was taken private by Haveli Investments, a private-equity firm, in May 2024. For European buyers, support language, data handling and contract governance are questions to ask in diligence.
Pricing: quotas and quotes vs. one public page
ZeroFox
$30k to 60k
per year for small deployments (procurement data, July 2026)
ZeroFox publishes its bundle structure (Foundation, Core, Premium) but no prices; everything is "Request Pricing." Procurement data, as of July 2026: $30k to 60k for small deployments, $75k to 150k mid-market, $200k+ enterprise, onboarding up to $20k, managed services an additional 20 to 40 %.
nebty
€99/$119 per month and brand for monitoring
€400/$450 per successful takedown, €300/$340 for monitoring customers
At nebty, monitoring and takedowns are two separate services, bookable individually or together. Monitoring is a subscription: €99/$119 per month per brand, cancellable monthly, no setup fee. Takedowns are ordered per case, with or without a subscription and with no quota: €400/$450 per successful takedown, €300/$340 as a monitoring customer. No success, no fee, plus the stays-offline guarantee. Full details on one public page. Three successful takedowns plus a year of monitoring cost about €2,100.

The process
How nebty works
Monitoring (a subscription) and takedowns (per case) are two independent services, bookable separately or together. Combined, they interlock like this:
-
We monitor 24/7.
Lookalike domains, phishing clones, fake shops and fake profiles targeting your brand. Detection typically within hours of going live.
-
You confirm, we act.
Send us the URL, or click once in the dashboard. We handle registrar, host and blocklist escalation, fully managed, in English or German.
-
You pay on success.
€400/$450 per takedown, only when the content is down. Free re-takedown if it returns.
Common questions
FAQ
Short answers to the questions we hear most about this topic.
Your question is not on the list? Ask Benedikt directly What does ZeroFox cost?
ZeroFox publishes bundle structures but no prices. Procurement data (as of July 2026) puts entry contracts at $30,000 to 60,000 per year, mid-market at $75,000 to 150,000, with onboarding fees up to $20,000 and managed services adding 20 to 40 %.
What happens if you exceed a ZeroFox takedown quota?
ZeroFox's bundles include annual takedown quotas (from 250 per year), and its own FAQ addresses exceeding the allotment; the specifics depend on your contract. nebty has no quota: takedowns are billed per success, at a price you know in advance.
Is nebty a full replacement for ZeroFox?
No. ZeroFox covers dark-web intelligence, attack surface management and executive protection that nebty does not. For the core SMB problem, finding brand impersonations and getting them taken down, nebty covers the same ground at €99/$119/month for monitoring plus €400/$450 per successful takedown.
Why do reviewers criticize ZeroFox takedowns?
The documented complaints are alert noise and false positives, slow analyst review cycles, and repeated requests for additional evidence before takedowns proceed. Its G2 rating is 4.4 to 4.5.
Can I test nebty alongside an existing ZeroFox contract?
Yes. nebty has no minimum term, so you can run our free audit and a month of monitoring in parallel and compare what each finds before deciding anything.
