Overview

Product Information on Puppet Enterprise

Updated 28th May 2026

What is Puppet Enterprise?

Puppet Enterprise is a platform for secure infrastructure automation and governance. Built for platform, DevOps, and security teams, it enables organizations to define and enforce desired state across infrastructure, automate remediation, and scale with confidence. With policy-driven automation and support for both agent-based and agentless workflows, Puppet reduces manual effort while supporting continuous compliance across complex environments. Perforce Puppet helps teams detect configuration drift, apply hardened configurations through automation, and remediate vulnerabilities faster across hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructure. Backed by enterprise support and SLAs, it delivers consistent, auditable control to reduce risk and maintain operational integrity at scale

Puppet Enterprise Pricing

Puppet Enterprise software offers a subscription-based pricing model that is structured per node, with pricing tiers based on the number of managed nodes. The software includes infrastructure automation, orchestration, and management capabilities, with package options varying by scale and support features. Enterprise support and additional services are available depending on the chosen plan and deployment size.

    Puppet has been able to help us implement solutions or guide for possible pitfalls we might run into. There have been bumps and unresolved issues that at times are not directly evident and would require changing the product that might steer away from new incoming users but larger enterprises do not want or require more stringent requirements.
