We use Blackpoint Cyber MDR for our higher-end clients who need a higher level of control over security We get a deeper look into security related events that are otherwise difficult find and analyze. Security operations does a good job of weeding out the noise. I appreciate that there are…

Soc Analyst at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Improved identity threat visibility has enabled faster investigations and structured triage
Huntress Managed ITDR could be improved by providing more detailed alert context, clearer investigation steps, and better integration with SIEM and SOAR tools. Reducing false positives and offering more customization for alert severity would also help SOC analysts prioritize genuine threats and investigate them more efficiently. I would also like to see more detailed incident timelines, better alert correlation, and more flexible reporting options. These improvements would help our SOC analysts understand the full context of identity-related threats, reduce manual investigation efforts, and make it easier to track security trends over time. I think Huntress Managed ITDR's AI governance and security could be improved by providing more transparency into how AI-driven detections work, how customer data is protected, and how decisions are made. Clear documentation on data privacy, access controls, and human oversight would help build trust and ensure AI-assisted threat detection remains secure and reliable. I find the AI capabilities useful for identifying suspicious identity activities and supporting investigations. However, accuracy and reliability depend on the quality of the alerts and available context. I would like to see fewer false positives, more transparent explanations for detections, and consistent results to help our SOC analysts make informed decisions.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is all encompassing and can incorporate email monitoring."
"On a scale from one to ten, I would rate the overall solution as a ten."
"On my end, the most valuable feature of this solution is that I can install it and forget about it. After that, their SOC team takes over and they only call me when there's a problem."
"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"I appreciate that there are people behind the scenes sorting out valuable alerts from those that are not, so I only get alerts when they are real."
"The solution also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"Implementing Huntress Managed ITDR has improved our business by allowing us to be more proactive with our security posture."
"Human-led investigation and remediation are essential for my security operations because while automated detection helps identify suspicious identity activities quickly, human expertise is crucial for understanding the context, validating threats, and avoiding unnecessary disruptions."
"My advice for others looking into using Huntress Managed ITDR would be to definitely give a trial, try them out, see how your customers appreciate it, and I bet that they will love it."
"The customer support is awesome, it's honestly one of the greatest customer support experiences I've had the pleasure to work with."
"Overall, it's something that each organization or company should look at investing in, and it's a great tool to have."
"The analyst from Huntress is quite useful in the way they help to monitor and detect activity that I would never have seen before if I had not deployed Huntress."
"The best features of Huntress Managed ITDR include the overview provided in the Huntress dashboard, which allows me to immediately see risky users, the state of identities per customer, and which signals are investigated and which are not."
"Huntress Managed ITDR examines various nulls from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action."
 

Cons

"The solution does not tie into other EDR products like CyberArk or CrowdStrike but that might be more useful."
"The feature we keep asking for is a vulnerability scan."
"The interface could be more intuitive."
"The interface could be more intuitive. More transparency is needed in the interface as a lot of details are hidden behind the scenes, making them difficult or impossible to access."
"While I am very satisfied with the service, supporting additional platforms, particularly Linux support, would be a beneficial improvement."
"Some texts seem to report items as normal too quickly."
"If anything, it's created more work, but that's because we're now seeing things that we weren't seeing before."
"If we have a client that only has M365 Business Standard, all of the MFA details just show as unknown."
"In terms of room for improvement, I think they can expand the coverage beyond Microsoft 365."
"The only other thing I would say would be better with Huntress Managed ITDR is regarding my work with educational customers where budgets are very tight. I would have preferred to see a pricing model where you pay per domain name rather than per user, because that would make it more cost-effective for schools to get on board with Huntress Managed ITDR."
"One thing about how Huntress Managed ITDR can be improved is that there are times in which we do not necessarily need to be engaged, and isolation can be triggered automatically so we do not have to do it."
"Huntress Managed ITDR could improve by cleaning up the dashboard interface."
"A downside of Huntress Managed ITDR is that some devices show they are not super compatible with the Defender for Endpoint integration."
"I chose a rating of nine out of ten because of the improvements that I have suggested."
