Fortinet FortiAnalyzer VM (1-26 GB/Day) FortiCare Premium, 3-Year (FC3-10-LV0VM-248-02-36)

A three-year FortiCare Premium subscription reduces the overhead of annual renewals and typically delivers better cost-per-year value than stacking successive 1-year terms. FC3-10-LV0VM-248-02-36 applies that logic to the 1-26 GB/Day FortiAnalyzer VM tier, locking in 24×7 TAC access, firmware update entitlement, and priority support for three consecutive years from the activation date.

Overview

FortiAnalyzer VM centralizes log collection, event correlation, and compliance reporting for Fortinet security fabrics, running on VMware vSphere, Hyper-V, KVM, and compatible hypervisors. The FC3 band accommodates daily log ingestion of 1 to 26 gigabytes, covering multi-site deployments with up to roughly a thousand FortiGate, FortiSwitch, and FortiAP devices feeding a single VM instance. FortiCare Premium (svc_code 248) provides 24×7 TAC with priority case routing, firmware and software release entitlement for the three-year period, Fortinet’s online knowledge base and support portal, and advance hardware replacement where eligible. Continuous access to firmware updates across all three years is the most operationally significant entitlement on a VM license.

Who it suits

The 3-year term aligns with the budget planning cycle of most enterprise IT departments and managed service providers. It suits organizations that have confirmed their FortiAnalyzer VM deployment size and want predictable support costs without annual renewal touchpoints. Distributed campus networks and mid-market enterprises running multiple FortiGate firewalls whose combined log output stays within the 1-26 GB/Day band are the primary fit. Procurement teams requiring multi-year contract visibility will find the 36-month term easier to approve than stacked annual renewals, and the cost-per-year advantage makes it the default choice for established deployments.
