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.

Customers have found quick incident response and proactive security management through effective threat detection
Secureworks Taegis Managed XDR MDR is a great product that has not posed any challenges from my perspective. I am extremely happy with the quick response from the Secureworks team. After the Sophos merger, I look forward to seeing a better and more enhanced version of the product. The team does a phenomenal job with automatic maintenance.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"One of the most valuable features is its around-the-clock, 365-day-a-year online technical support."
"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."
"The most valuable features are IDS and IPS."
"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."
"There are some patent pending detectors within the platform that provides a lot of value."
"It provides more visibility and more control over endpoints. It reduces the noise. It clears things and only shows things that are really important. It only shows those things that need to be looked at or need to be investigated further. Other similar solutions give you a lot of alerts and other things, but Secureworks gives you a defined or less noisy view so that you can work or focus on things that are important in terms of investigation, response, and remediation."
"The pricing is flexible."
"The initial setup was very straight forward."
"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."
"We can easily isolate affected machines in the network."
 

Cons

"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."
"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. 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."
"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."
"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."
"Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR's query language and stability need improvement."
"We did a PoC of their next-gen antivirus product, but it wasn't ready yet. It was underdeveloped and caused a lot of issues. We'd like to move away from Carbon Black, but they said that it's probably still not to a point where we'd be happy with it. Carbon Black and RedCloak seem to work fine for us."
"Dell Secureworks could improve its integration with other third-party solutions."
"It would be nice if the solution were a little more affordable."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see file integrity monitoring."
"The deployment could definitely be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's pricing is high compared to other products. If you want to target a certain quantity, it should provide discounts to enterprises."
"The pricing falls within the moderate range."
"Initially, the cost was going to be something around $160 or $170. And eventually, I think they brought it down to $110 and they also threw in some endpoint protection platforms."
"It is expensive but there is no better product than this."
"Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR is very expensive and could be more cost-effective."
"The price is kind of on par. The licensing was comparable to other solutions. It's not particularly high or low."
"The Red Cloak agent is free."
"The pricing for this solution is reasonable. One agent costs approximately 270 dirhams/70 USD for one year. There is a reduction in cost per licence as the number of licences used increases."
"The pricing of Dell Secureworks is very reasonable."
