Improving alert visibility and reporting has reduced workload and strengthened security posture
Huntress Managed EDR could be improved by providing more visibility into each alert that comes in and what action was taken on it. There have been times when an alert was received through Microsoft Defender indicating an account was accessed, when in reality it was blocked by a conditional access policy, yet when checking the Huntress portal, that event does not appear at all, lacking indication that it was raised and investigated as not a threat. The reporting in Huntress Managed EDR is fairly basic, as the only available report is effectively an executive summary. Although it contains useful information, other platforms have reporting engines that are much more robust and customizable, functionality that appears to be missing in Huntress.

AI-driven monitoring has improved real-time threat detection but still needs better automation
I could see some workflows, but I am unable to do automated workflows. For example, some repetitive jobs or repetitive tasks I am doing, but I am trying to have less manual intervention on the front. I am raising some issues that should be resolvable. The SentinelOne team has told me that this can be resolved within a couple of months, but they are saying that it is in future for enhancement and it may take some time. So far, the numbers are great. Regarding disadvantages or areas for improvement, I could say that 35 percent of my manual effort can be detected since I implemented it very recently. I could be able to say my current data talks about only 35 percent, and it may improve further, as I am expecting. But I can only comment based on my alerts and events. The adoption rate will be less compared to other products, as this can be a time-taken process because all my data needs to be offloaded and the system needs to understand my existing alerts, logs, and other things. This will take some more time, probably another month. Another area for improvement is that the product is somewhat expensive. Pricing could be improved as well.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What stands out most is their human element: when faced with an unknown threat, real people, not just automated processes, are investigating it, and they're people we trust."
"While threat hunting is undoubtedly the most valuable feature, the combination of IP scanning, foothold identification, and canary monitoring has also proven to be incredibly beneficial."
"Using Huntress Managed EDR has helped reduce the need for expensive security tools or to hire expensive security analysts, and it is important because we save money."
"The most valuable aspect of Huntress Managed EDR is its personalized approach."
"After deployment, it takes some time to scan and process everything. Huntress has effectively flagged issues such as password files on desktops, which it identifies as low-level alerts. It also handles more significant threats effectively."
"What I like the most about Huntress Managed EDR is their lockdowns on malware; just last night I remediated a system that could have gone really sideways, their SOC called me and texted me and within 45 seconds we had a lockdown and remediation in progress, so all around they are just phenomenal."
"Their SOC is super responsive and does a great job of catching incidences and being on top of any issues that arise."
"We saw the benefits of Huntress pretty quickly. Once it started detecting threats, it was great."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM's AI-powered analytics does affect our SOC's ability to reduce false positives; that is one of the biggest advantages because the manpower that I have is limited."
"Overall, I would assess the overall security posture after implementing SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM as significantly better."
"AI-driven capabilities will give me real-time detection and will protect my autonomous AI interruption."
"After using SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM, it has reduced our incident response time by forty to fifty percent compared to other tools."
"When they face attacks such as ransomware and are dissatisfied with their existing solutions, they switch to SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM, which is quite good in detecting unknown threats, cleaning the system, and handling ransomware."
 

Cons

"One thing they could improve is evolving from an EDR to an MDR, like Blackpoint."
"The reporting could be improved by providing a more simplified report that can be easily understood by clients."
"The integration with Autotask could be improved."
"We are still getting many false positives."
"Their EDR can have increased coverage for Macintosh. They do not fully secure Macintosh computers."
"The integration with Autotask could be improved."
"The ITDR product is coming along great, however, we are still getting many false positives."
"Huntress has a cyber education platform, but it lacks all the languages we need."
"In AI SIEM, the areas that have room for improvement are the parsers for third-party integrated data or for third-party data sources that are not native integrations, which could be made a bit easier."
"At the moment, I feel the pricing is a little bit on the higher side, but the tool is positioned in a place where risk is very high, and we do not want to take chances, so we are prepared to pay the premium."
"It is quite good, but the only downside is that it is costly."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has some performance and reliability issues that need improvement."
"Another area for improvement is that the product is somewhat expensive. Pricing could be improved as well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product pricing six out of ten for the Malaysian market. However, I would rate it a three out of ten for the Australian, New Zealand, or Singapore markets."
"The tool’s price is very good. You just need to pay for the standard license. However, you need to pay the additional cost for Microsoft Defender."
"It is simple. It is reasonable. They raised my prices this year. We never like price increases, but they continue to add value, so we just keep adding agents as we grow and as our clients grow."
"I believe Huntress offers competitive pricing overall."
"It is very fair. I started at $2.50 and now I am at $3.50. When I signed up, I thought it was too cheap. It now reflects the price. It is very fair. I do not think you can find anything better."
"The cost-effectiveness of Huntress is much better compared to BlackPoint. Although Huntress does not offer all the finer details that BlackPoint does, it remains much more competitive in pricing."
"Huntress Managed EDR offers a fair pricing model."
"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."
