What advice do you have for others considering Huntress?

I rate Huntress 10 out of 10. They're one of my favorites. I call Huntress a partner, which isn't something I say about every vendor we deal with.

Their minimum spend is quite low, unlike some vendors that require $500 or $1,000 a month. It's around $50, so you can start with just a few clients if you're new or scale up if you're larger. Their products integrate well with our existing systems and perform effectively. I’ve worked with some vendors whose implementations were so complex that managing the solution required almost a full-time person. In contrast, Huntress was straightforward to deploy. You set a few permissions, and then it just runs in the background. This simplified things and made managing the software much easier. Huntress is largely set-it-and-forget-it. The only real maintenance involves handling remediation for attacked machines rather than ongoing upkeep. The recent addition of Mac support required a new script. Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

I rate Huntress 10 out of 10. Do your homework and make sure you understand exactly what you're getting into with any solution. Huntress' staff is incredibly friendly and supportive. They will make the transition easy for you. You have to price accordingly to profit from what you're marketing to your customer base

We have an API that we build into our managed service platform, which we just install from the script. Huntress does not necessarily require any maintenance. You have actionable items that will occur in the use of the product, but it's a set-it-and-forget-it installation. New users should ensure that their use case fits into the Huntress model. We investigated and found that our MM was compatible with Huntress, and it was a pretty smooth integration. I don't know whether all our MMs are as adept, but ours worked well. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. New users should mostly ensure that they know that this product is going to stand on top of Windows Defender and integrate with it. If someone is utilizing Windows Defender, they just need to ensure that they know that this product has to operate with Windows Defender to get its full capability.

We're an MSP and have a lot of relationships with many vendors. I'd rate Huntress nine out of ten. I'd recommend users give Huntress a chance. The MSP portal is free to use and it has a lot of integrations.

I'd recommend the solution to others. From value for money to ease of implementation to minimal false positives, it's great. You get peace of mind that you know that you've got someone that actually looks after you. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.

Huntress is easy to use. It immediately improved visibility and understanding of our security posture. It is a good solution for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). It is quite effective in the context of the SMB market and for managed service providers (MSPs) deploying the solution. It is easy to install on machines and fits well within the price range for companies that might be using Microsoft 365 but have yet to be ready to move to Business Premium. It also manages standalone Microsoft Defenders, which adds a unique advantage. It provides a holistic approach, helping us tap into the telemetry from the existing antivirus on Windows machines, providing a more comprehensive solution. We had to use some other solution alongside Huntress. This client was using Bitdefender as a standard antivirus. If a client wants to stop using Bitdefender, we recommend using Microsoft Defender. Our team uses some degree of AI to help them work through the telemetry they collect. I recommend the product to others and rate it a ten.

If you are unsure about the solution, try to get a trial and see what it does. I rate it a ten out of ten.

Those evaluating this solution can research it online. They can ask their peers or just contact Huntress. They will guide them through the whole process. I would rate Huntress a 10 out of 10.

I rate Huntress a nine out of ten. Organizations are comfortable taking on certain calculated risks. However, I believe we need to employ specific types of staff to align our service delivery with our resource allocation. The Huntress platform has facilitated this crucial realignment. The tool itself does not require maintenance but there is ongoing management. Users should ensure they have an accurate inventory of the assets they need to protect, the chosen protection methods, and any additional relevant details. Assigning one or two dedicated individuals as "Champions" of the tool will help them fully leverage its benefits.

I would rate Huntress ten out of ten. They are a partner and the first thing we roll out. Currently, we're not utilizing the EDR component, not because we believe it's not valuable, but simply because we already have an existing EDR solution in place. Redundancy doesn't make sense at this stage. When I first adopted Huntress, I lacked a dedicated SOC team and a comprehensive security stack. Since then, we've built a security stack with roughly twelve tools encompassing various areas, from basic spam filtering to advanced threat detection covered by Huntress, Microsoft 365 security, domain DNS filtering, and more. We established a dedicated SOC team. However, expanding our security stack does introduce the challenge of requiring additional personnel to manage and monitor these systems effectively. My intention isn't to diminish the value Huntress provides or imply it solely created an additional workload. Instead, I want to emphasize its significant role as one crucial piece within our broader security ecosystem. Being a long-standing client of Huntress provides us with significant advantages. We consider them a true partner, not just a vendor. If I need anything, whether it's a tabletop exercise or additional information, I can simply contact a few key people at Huntress, and they always go above and beyond to assist. Similarly, if I need data or someone from Huntress to present alongside me, they readily oblige. This level of support solidifies their status as a partner invested in our success and the value we bring to our clients. In essence, they offer more than just a product; they provide ongoing support and collaboration to help us improve. Huntress updates automatically. The only maintenance required is a periodic check to ensure no pending actions need our attention. It runs silently in the background. I recommend seeing Huntress in action by checking out a demo. While it's valuable to talk to a Huntress partner and do your due diligence, make sure to also engage directly with Huntress by participating in a demo, attending a webinar, or trying their product. We evaluated Huntress on our network and gained valuable insights by talking directly to a Huntress partner.

I recommend the solution to those planning to use it since I believe they should try it. I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.

I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. The solution is extremely easy to use compared to other products. There are many other products with cumbersome portals that are difficult to use. It can be very difficult to teach new engineers how to use those platforms well.

We have a hybrid model deployed for this solution where the dashboards are on the cloud, but the agents are on the machines. Overall, I would rate this solution a nine, on a scale from one to 10, with one being the worst and 10 being the best.

I would give Huntress a rating of nine out of ten. The only thing that rivals it is SentinelOne Complete when it's managed and monitored by a security operations center like the offering by OverWatch.
