Huntress Managed SIEM scales well for SMEs, but multi-site performance varies despite easy integration and automatic scalability.

Senior Principal Information Security Analyst at Veritas Technologies LLC
In terms of scalability, I find CrowdStrike to be stable, and I have not encountered any limitations with it.
Cyber Security Architects at VaporVM
There's no scalability limitation from CrowdStrike itself, as it just requires agent deployment.
Large account Manager at Softcell Technologies Limited
It struggles with scalability when dealing with high logs, multi-site, multi-tenant setups, and large volumes of endpoints.
Partner Account Manager at a wholesaler/distributor with 51-200 employees
Huntress Managed SIEM is pretty scalable when there are more log sources to be integrated, or when there are high volumes of transactions which lead to higher log ingestion.

Simplifying the querying process, such as using double quote queries or directly obtaining logs based on IP addresses or usernames, would be beneficial.

Another concern is CrowdStrike's GUI. It changes annually, making it hard to work and find options.

Threat prevention should be their first priority.

The solution is a bit expensive.

I did not have to spend more than what I initially budgeted for.
Head of Business Operations at a manufacturing company with 501-1,000 employees

Valuable Features

CrowdStrike Falcon provides excellent EDR with lightweight impact, real-time detection, SIEM integration, and improved security management efficiency.
Huntress Managed SIEM offers advanced AI filtering and threat detection, enhancing efficiency with centralized monitoring and real-time insights.
I can investigate by accessing the customer's host based on the RTR environment and utilize host search to know details for the past seven days, including logins, processes, file installations, malicious processes, and network connections.
Security Analyst at NTT Ltd
The real-time analytics aspect of CrowdStrike performs well because we get all logs in real-time, with no delay, allowing us to take action immediately.

Being an EDR solution, it helps us identify attacks in real-time.
Information Security Specialist at Arab Open University
Huntress Managed SIEM combines machine detection with human investigation, which adds context and helps confirm if something is actually a threat rather than just noise.

Huntress Managed SIEM has helped in both angles, improving efficiency in SOC operations where the mean time to detect is drastically reduced.

Featured Reviews

Dipak M Gohil - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Manager at Jord International Pty Ltd
Efficient threat detection and seamless deployment improve overall security
The single panel console of CrowdStrike Falcon is very user-friendly, which is what we are looking for. Having multiple administrators between various offices with this single console gives us the ability to see all offices, branch offices, and partners, making it very useful to detect machines, identify machines, and check security risks. Everything in the single console is very useful. CrowdStrike Falcon has positively impacted our organization in terms of efficiency because it's very lightweight, easy to deploy, easy to manage, and works very efficiently. It quickly detects issues and doesn't have a signature-based system, so it works fast and takes immediate action.
reviewer2805510 - PeerSpot reviewer
Partner Account Manager at a wholesaler/distributor with 51-200 employees
Human-guided threat monitoring has delivered rapid, confident incident response and strong compliance
I believe Huntress Managed SIEM could be improved by increasing integrations with non-Microsoft solutions as this would broaden its appeal. A broader out-of-the-box solution for diverse environments including IoT, Mac OS, and Linux servers would be valuable. I would rate Huntress Managed SIEM an eight because a couple of things could be changed, such as having more integrations with non-Microsoft systems, improved customization on the dashboard, and enhanced reporting in the threat intelligence updates. Being unable to click on new niche variants of threats is another point I would mention, but overall an eight out of ten is a good score because I think it is a very well-priced solution for its capabilities and all the positives I have outlined. The eight rating is primarily influenced by those integration and customization points I mentioned, which are the main requests from customers.
