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.

Gained trusted 24/7 threat coverage and now focus security efforts on architecture and design
In my experience, the best features Red Canary offers are their team, their monitoring team, their expertise at incident investigation, and a focus on suspicious or actual indicators of compromise to ensure that we're not spending time just reviewing logs, but that we're actually looking at things that may indicate we have broader issues. The Red Canary team's expertise stands out compared to others I've worked with because their team is organized into smaller pods that support a given number of clients, so they're not just a bevy of operators going around the clock. The teams themselves have coordination and cohesion, and they get to know us. Their integrations into the different platforms and systems that we use all line up with our needs, whereas a number of other platforms offered a different variety of integrations that did not line up with our requirements. Red Canary has positively impacted my organization because I don't have to spend and hire resources to look at logs, which has enabled us to do much more in terms of improving security across the organization. With the freed-up resources, we've been able to implement CSPM, SAST, software testing tooling, and engage much more closely with our developers and engineers to focus on secure architecture and design.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The near real-time review translates into near real-time action. So, in addition to alerting, Red Canary MDR has response playbooks built out."

"Red Canary has positively impacted my organization because I don't have to spend and hire resources to look at logs, which has enabled us to do much more in terms of improving security across the organization."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its automation part."
"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."
 

Cons

"Adlumin Security Operations's functionality is probably slightly better, but implementation and integration with Office 365 was not as straightforward."
"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."
"Red Canary's pricing spectrum may not be ideal for smaller financial institutions."
"I would like there to be an on-premise version of this solution for our data centers because of the proliferation of online threats."
"In general, the solution currently fails to provide a summary to its users."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution could vary in price depending on how many endpoints a company has."
"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."
