Strong security reporting has supported our consulting work and drives better integration choices
I rated Adlumin Security Operations probably the same as Huntress at eight. They are better at reporting and better integrations. The integrations in terms of the number of integrations you can run from them or connect to are not as many as available with Huntress, but they have easier implementation. Overall, I would say it is the same. I do not want to see any additional features in the next release of Adlumin Security Operations, but I would change the pricing a little bit for around SIEM integrations and SIEM data collection. That is probably the maximum I would do. I do not really have much to say because that is literally five percent of our deployments versus ninety-five percent being Huntress. My overall rating for this review is eight.

Centralized protection has simplified K-12 security management and reduced after-hours workload
One of the things I appreciate most about Huntress Managed EDR is the single pane of glass within the Huntress platform, which is excellent for managing both Macs and PCs. When we use Huntress Managed EDR, I get visibility of all of our assets and their protection, regardless of the platform, which makes it easier for me to manage security from one spot. Huntress Managed EDR has helped reduce the need for expensive security tools, as this platform replaced another solution that was more costly. With 24/7 monitoring, we don't need to staff after-hours support, which has significantly reduced costs for our medium-sized organization with about 180 staff. We do use the auto-remediation feature within Huntress Managed EDR to automatically remediate medium and high severity threats. It has not encountered something requiring active remediation yet, but it did quarantine a file and worked well during our test scenario. The fact that Huntress Managed EDR solution is fully managed by Huntress 24/7 significantly eases my workload when it comes to triaging and managing alerts, as it helps me sleep better at night knowing I don't need to monitor alerts around the clock. I can confidently wait to receive updates without worry about our environment's safety.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We normally focus on Huntress."
"Huntress' best feature is the threat-hunting expertise that is part of their 24/7 SOC."
"I have found it valuable that this solution is always there and always armed."
"Huntress Managed EDR has helped significantly reduce our workload so that our engineers can focus on other tasks at hand."
"We don’t have the required staff to watch the issues that are happening. It is good to have a team from Huntress who can watch the logs 24/7. The tool’s automatic remediation is also fantastic. The solution’s interface is also nice and easy to use. The Huntress team saves us time by going through the issues."
"The most valuable aspect of Huntress is its 24/7 SOC service."
"Huntress Managed EDR eliminates the need to outsource expensive security tools or analysts, avoiding the high costs associated with external solutions."
"Huntress Managed EDR fits our needs in the SMB market perfectly, especially targeting the cultural sector within the Netherlands, as it provides a cost-effective SOC SIEM solution with a clear product line and transparent pricing that allows us to maintain decent margins while keeping costs low for our end customers."
"Huntress Managed EDR has positively impacted my organization, with improvements in security and the backing of a 24/7 SOC for a small team at Evolve IT being the reason why we went with the partnership with Huntress initially."
 

Cons

"Adlumin Security Operations's functionality is probably slightly better, but implementation and integration with Office 365 was not as straightforward."
"While Huntress Managed EDR is a growing company adding innovations, one area that could improve is the time it took for Microsoft Defender for Endpoint integration, and the need to enhance detections on the Microsoft ecosystem is also evident, although I am confident they will succeed."
"I am anxiously watching to see how they evolve their MDR for Office 365. If anything, I would like more automated remediation capabilities in their MDR for Office 365."
"Ultimately, the clarity of their alerts is paramount for effective threat communication and could benefit from clearer remediation steps."
"Installing Huntress on a Mac presents a challenge for end users due to the operating system's security features, which require administrator privileges for installation."
"The Huntress is not a standalone solution. It really needs to be used with something else such as Microsoft Defender or another antivirus solution. It would be nice to see the product fleshed out by the Huntress team and include the antivirus solution part as well. I want it to be a full-fledged XDR product. It would push the tool to a higher price range but it would be nice to see the fleshed out features. I want them to integrate more features from the XDR realm."
"Installing Huntress on a Mac presents a challenge for end users due to the operating system's security features, which require administrator privileges for installation."
"I would like the API to be a little better. They are getting there."
"One thing they could improve is evolving from an EDR to an MDR, like Blackpoint."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Huntress has a favourable pricing structure, and I appreciate the cost-effectiveness compared to previous solutions."
"The pricing is competitive, in line with Huntress's offerings, and aligns well with our business model."
"We haven't had any problems with Huntress' pricing. We're at 250 workstations, and we've grown considerably this year. They've been able to handle everything that we've thrown at them within that time frame. They're also reducing the price based on how many endpoints we add."
"Huntress is an easy sell to clients because it does all the heavy lifting. Sometimes, they will buck a little at the price because they want a free antivirus or EDR. We tell them that we use Huntress on all our machines. That is our standard process for all the machines we roll out. When we give that advice, people are pretty willing to say okay."
"Regarding the pricing for Huntress Managed EDR, I was amazed when I heard the price; I thought it was going to be way more than what it is based on the quality."
"I rate the product's price a five or six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive since it is a fairly priced product."
"The solution is cheap compared to other alternatives. It offers good value for money. For the whole solution, it's up to about five pounds per device per month. Considering what it does, I think that's very good value."
"The Huntress pricing is an excellent value for what the product provides."
