We performed a comparison between Astound Managed SD-WAN and Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Managed Security Services solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's just a huge improvement compared to where we came from. I can get in, configure, identify, and reconfigure, and I don't have to troubleshoot anything. It's all very easy and flows really well."
"Astound is adequate, sufficient, and gives us room to grow."
"Securworks' threat intel seems pretty decent, and they integrate with several solutions we have, such as Azure AD, so all our Microsoft 365 stuff is covered."
"The initial setup was very straight forward."
"The most valuable feature is the support. The support chat. It's always connecting to people. And you open the chat, and it's not about that automated response. It's actually a human being that responds to you."
"The solution definitely made us way more aware of the possibilities out there."
"This solution gathers the information logs from all devices and correlates all the information. It notifies us of any critical events taking place across our networks which has been valuable."
"The pricing is flexible."
"There are some patent pending detectors within the platform that provides a lot of value."
"We don't have a full SOC, so it's helpful to have them sifting through our alerts and only bringing actionable items to us."
"As a church, we don't employ a typical IT person, so it would help if they could set up a more user-friendly layman's type of profile and settings, where everything is simplified into layman's terms. For example, it could say, "Turn internet speed up for guest use," or "Turn it down," or "Turn it off," or "Reset it.""
"As a new customer opening our first worship center, I would have liked for Astound to provide examples of products other churches use."
"Tamper-proofing or tamper protection is still pending in Secureworks. Tamper protection will make it more secure. If I'm an admin of a device, I can uninstall an agent without the knowledge of the security or Secureworks admin. If someone gets hold of one endpoint with admin credentials, he can remove anything, and an organization will lose visibility. They need to work on providing more visibility across endpoints. A couple of times it has happened that the cloak agent is there, but it did not get activated, or there were some issues. The machine was restarted, but the cloak agent didn't run. In such cases, you have to troubleshoot. It is a big issue if a cyber attack is happening, and your machine is rebooted, but the events are not captured."
"Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR's query language and stability need improvement."
"The deployment could definitely be improved."
"Dell Secureworks is for higher-end customers and it's not quite as straightforward to implement or to get up and running as some of the other solutions."
"The integration with the Carbon Black sensor could be better. ManagedXDR doesn't seem to know how to extract the forensic data from an endpoint that was quarantined by Carbon Black."
"It would be nice if the solution were a little more affordable."
"In terms of ROI, I'd be surprised if there is any investment return on the SIM."
"The integration would look better with other products, with other EDRs, with other firewalls, with other older versions of firewalls, and the versions of software and hardware."
