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

"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 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 pricing is flexible."
"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 knowledge base is up to date and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the fast alerting and response time."
"The initial setup was very straight forward."
"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."
"The solution definitely made us way more aware of the possibilities out there."
"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."
 

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. 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."
"I think having a higher level of MDR would be beneficial, although it's quite expensive."
"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."
"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."
"In terms of ROI, I'd be surprised if there is any investment return on the SIM."
"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."
"This solution could be improved with a higher degree of automation such as automated emails, triggers and defining the severity of the cases."
"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."
"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."
 

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 is expensive but there is no better product than this."
"The price is kind of on par. The licensing was comparable to other solutions. It's not particularly high or low."
"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."
"The Red Cloak agent is free."
"Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR is very expensive and could be more cost-effective."
"The pricing of Dell Secureworks is very reasonable."
"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."
