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.

Continuous threat monitoring has strengthened our endpoint protection and reduced false positives
Key improvements I would like to see include fewer false positives. I understand that almost all EDR or cybersecurity platforms cannot be 100 percent accurate, but I need to see fewer false positives. Another thing I want to see is improved threat detection accuracy. I want them to improve their AI and investigations and implement a faster investigation process. I would recommend them to invest heavily in machine learning. I would also recommend introducing onboarding calls before someone purchases the software because we faced a challenge whereby we had no idea about how to install it in our system. We had to rely on documentation and support, but if they could offer onboarding calls, it would be great.

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."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its automation part."
"Red Canary has impacted our organization positively by managing our security endpoints and being able to detect threats before they impact us negatively."
"Red Canary has impacted my organization positively because we treat any ticket triggered by them as high priority due to the fact that 99 percent of the time it is a true positive."
"I am satisfied with this solution and it is very competitive with other similar EDR or MDR solutions because it provides very impressive information about the root cause of the threat, such as malware."
"The near real-time review translates into near real-time action. So, in addition to alerting, Red Canary MDR has response playbooks built out."
"I recommended Red Canary to my friends who work in other organizations."
"The valuable features of this solution are it integrates well with different EDR software, such CrowdStrike, and Carbon Black, and the information it provides is helpful."
"The solution works well for what we use it for and the support and protection are good."
 

Cons

"Adlumin Security Operations's functionality is probably slightly better, but implementation and integration with Office 365 was not as straightforward."
"I would like there to be an on-premise version of this solution for our data centers because of the proliferation of online threats."
"Key improvements I would like to see include fewer false positives. I want them to improve their AI and investigations and implement a faster investigation process."
"I wish Red Canary could have a graph that shows the endpoint, user, and how it spreads, providing a visual representation to easily identify what happened."
"Red Canary's pricing spectrum may not be ideal for smaller financial institutions."
"Red Canary can be improved by continuing to add new features and capabilities to what they are looking at, including the types of data they're looking at and the types of systems that they're integrating with."
"In general, the solution currently fails to provide a summary to its users."
"The most valuable feature of Red Canary MDR is the overall threat protection it provides."
"The price could always be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I have not compared Red Canary to other solutions to know if the price is high or low. However, I have found the price of this solution fair and reasonable, it cost approximately $100 per year, per device. If they could provide the solution for $50 per year, per device, it would be better."
"Red Canary MDR I use is an open-source tool."
"The solution could vary in price depending on how many endpoints a company has."
