ImunifyAV vs Imunify360 Unlimited: which one do you need?

schema: Articleschema: FAQPageschema: BreadcrumbList

Imunify licensing is simpler than it sounds: we sell two products, each priced per server, with no account-count tiers and no ceiling to size around. Every account on the server is covered, whatever the count. The decision is not "which tier do I need" — it is "which product do I need."

The two products

ProductPriceWhat it's for
ImunifyAV$7.95/mo per serverMalware scanning and cleanup, lighter footprint
Imunify360 Unlimited$24.75/mo per serverFull security suite, unlimited accounts on the server

Both are licensed per server, not per account, and both work with cPanel, Plesk, and DirectAdmin. Imunify360 Unlimited has no account-count cap — "Unlimited" describes the accounts covered on that server, not a top tier in a ladder above smaller plans. There is no smaller or larger paid tier beyond these two products.

ImunifyAV — $7.95/mo per server

ImunifyAV is a paid product, not a free scanner. It includes:

  • Malware scanner
  • One-click cleanup (cleanup is included with ImunifyAV itself)
  • Daily scan scheduling

It's a good fit if you want reliable malware detection and cleanup without the additional firewall and defense layers below.

Imunify360 Unlimited — $24.75/mo per server

Imunify360 Unlimited includes everything a hosting security suite typically needs:

  • WAF with a ModSecurity ruleset
  • Malware scanner with automatic cleanup (not just one-click, but automated)
  • Proactive Defense — PHP-level runtime protection
  • IP reputation and grey-listing
  • Cloud heuristic engine

Unlimited accounts on the licensed server are covered — there's no separate higher tier to buy into as account counts grow.

What upgrading from ImunifyAV to Imunify360 Unlimited actually buys you

The step up from ImunifyAV to Imunify360 Unlimited is a step up in protection, not in account capacity. Specifically, you gain:

  • A WAF (ModSecurity-based) that ImunifyAV does not include
  • Proactive Defense, which inspects PHP execution in real time rather than only scanning files after the fact
  • IP reputation and grey-listing, which blocks traffic from known-bad sources before it reaches the server
  • Cloud heuristic detection, layered on top of the standard scanner
  • Automatic cleanup rather than the one-click (manually triggered) cleanup in ImunifyAV

If all you need is scanning and cleanup on a lighter box, ImunifyAV covers that at $7.95/mo. If you want active blocking — a firewall, runtime defense, and reputation-based filtering — Imunify360 Unlimited at $24.75/mo is the product that includes it.
