Featured Reviews

Navin Mohinani - PeerSpot reviewer
CEO at Forte IT Solutions
Have faced integration challenges but continue to benefit from strong security and proactive response features
The biggest advantage of the product, as I see it as a reseller, is its security and reporting. The automated incident response feature in Comodo MDR works fantastic. When customers install custom tailor-made software which is not recognized by Comodo MDR endpoint detection response tool, it runs in an isolated environment, virtual environment, sandbox environment. If it determines that this software is not secure, not verified, or not approved by system admin, it blocks the software immediately. The software will not run, and it sends a report to the admin email instantly. If there is any issue with the software or if any incident such as a malware attack or ransomware attack is happening, or something is trying to make changes to the system files, it immediately blocks the software tool and reports back to the admin. As a reseller partner and secondary admin for the customers, my team and I directly receive a mail, and we take control of that machine. It even blocks complete network access to that machine. On the hardware side, if there is a hard disk full or RAM 90% usage or CPU 90% usage or any of these incidents, we set up an alert notification option for it. The moment these incidents occur, it sends an alert so we can recommend customers upgrade their hardware or check if there is any malfunctioning software consuming too much RAM and CPU. This incident response use case helps us keep customer machines' performance to the maximum. The 24/7 monitoring capability supports a lot in contributing to our cybersecurity strategy. It is very much compatible with our goal.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most valuable features is its around-the-clock, 365-day-a-year online technical support."
"The product is fairly new compared to others like Trend Micro or Symantec. However, it offers sophisticated features, especially in scanning and analyzing activities on workstations or servers. It can prevent malicious operations from spreading to other applications or the network. This feature is particularly effective because it operates at the IO level, unlike behavior or signature analysis used by other products. It contains threats and alerts administrators about whether they are false positives or real threats that need immediate action or support recommendations."
"However, it offers sophisticated features, especially in scanning and analyzing activities on workstations or servers."
"The automated incident response feature in Comodo MDR works fantastic; when customers install custom tailor-made software which is not recognized by Comodo MDR, it runs in an isolated environment, and if it determines the software is not secure, it blocks it immediately and sends a report to the admin."
"Huntress Managed EDR is a perfect solution for the SMB market and is recommended to all small businesses that have no cybersecurity posture, as it is easy to implement and provides peace of mind with a real-life SOC."
"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."
"I immediately recognized the benefits of Huntress Managed EDR."
"Because of the pricing, performance, and usability, Huntress Managed EDR is without a doubt the best EDR solution for small businesses that I've ever seen."
"Huntress has improved our security dramatically."
"Users usually note improvements in a matter of days. In others, it is immediately. It varies according to the environment."
"The most valuable features of Huntress Managed EDR include the SIEM and the log ingestion from firewalls; it has been really effective for managing our security. Huntress Managed EDR has positively impacted my organization by significantly reducing tickets coming to the SOC team; we have seen far less noise in terms of tickets since its implementation."
"Huntress Managed EDR has helped me reduce the need for expensive security tools or to hire expensive security analysts."
 

Cons

"They should consider adopting the desktop version as a solution."
"I think having a higher level of MDR would be beneficial, although it's quite expensive."
"I think having a higher level of MDR would be beneficial, although it's quite expensive. This would involve not just monitoring the network but also taking actions to stop and detect threats. We haven't implemented this yet, but we're considering it for our organization's plans."
"Users pay $60 per user per year, and in case there is an issue, support tickets take nearly three days or sometimes even more for a clear resolution or an answer."
"There should be more engagement with the MSP group or their largest clients. They should have focus group discussions on what they can do to improve the product."
"There are some drawbacks in Huntress Managed EDR, particularly with the security awareness training aspect which is more manual than expected compared to something like KnowBe4."
"One thing they could improve is evolving from an EDR to an MDR, like Blackpoint."
"Some of Huntress' reporting could be improved."
"Huntress has a cyber education platform, but it lacks all the languages we need."
"Huntress has a cyber education platform, but it lacks all the languages we need. Since we support customers in different countries, expanding the language options for their training would be beneficial."
"It would be nice if Huntress Managed EDR started adding additional features that some of the other competitors have, but obviously, to keep it lightweight, they cannot pack too much into it."
"The product could be improved in terms of customization options available for reports."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing falls within the moderate range."
"The tool's pricing is high compared to other products. If you want to target a certain quantity, it should provide discounts to enterprises."
"It works well for an MSP."
"Huntress has a favourable pricing structure, and I appreciate the cost-effectiveness compared to previous solutions."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"It is fair. They provide good value for the product that they deliver. I have had one price increase in the entire time I have used them. They added a bunch of features and then said that they have to increase our price a little bit. That is a fair way to handle it."
"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."
