Offers stability, quick response times, and great tech support

I like Binary Defense MDR's customizability. They have been great with technical support, customer service, and our account managers. Always happy with their overall support. Using Binary Defense has brought our organization more peace of mind and excellent security. Fortunately, we haven't faced major cybersecurity issues, but I trust that if we did, Binary Defense would catch them before things got out of hand. It has significantly improved our security posture compared to before we had them and it has greatly reduced my IT team's workload. It also saves me time, at least an hour a day or more. I love our partnership with Binary Defense. Bringing it to the board has made my life much easier and provides me with significant peace of mind. If you don't see your enterprise MDR provider as an extension of your team, you probably have a strong team. However, Binary Defense is so focused on security that they are top-notch in our view. They are a trusted partner for us.

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Binary Defense has changed its pricing model from being primarily based on the volume of data to one based on escalations and incidents they handle."

"Binary Defense MDR is priced competitively and may be slightly lower than CrowdStrike."

"The pricing is very good. They are definitely competitive and they were lower at the time that we went with them."

"It's valued at the right price. Even with the number of endpoints we have, we don't feel that it's a lot more than any competitor. In fact, it might be less expensive when you look at the fact that you're getting a full flex SOC out of it along with the tools."

"From the initial cost that Binary Defense came in with, we pared it down quite a bit over the course of 30 or 60 days. My leadership would say that their cost was high, but realistically, they were in line with the market."

"The pricing is on target. Working with their sales team on pricing negotiations was a pleasant process. They were very respectful of the constraints we had and I feel that we're paying a fair price."

"After we acquired this platform, we met with a number of different vendors. Binary Defense came in with a proposal that was surprisingly affordable. In fact, we were able to recoup the cost of their services within a short period of time. This is because Binary Defense is able to provide the same level of security as a team of two or three in-house analysts but at a fraction of the cost. As a result, Binary Defense is saving us an estimated $250,000 to $300,000 per year."

"The pricing isn't that bad, it's very competitive. I don't feel that it's over-priced and I don't feel that it's under-priced."
