Room For Improvement

Huntress Managed EDR needs improved integration, intuitive UI, advanced features, cost transparency, and broader security capabilities.
SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM faces high false positives, performance issues, limited integrations, and needs better usability and automation.
A more transparent way for the support team at Huntress and our IT team to collaborate to make it faster and easier would be beneficial.
VCIO at a tech services company with 11-50 employees
Huntress Managed EDR indicated this is a normal behavior, but I would prefer to be alerted whenever there is any incident involving Windows Defender on any machines, regardless of the status of the incident.
Managing Director at KAN iT
Additional dashboard customization, more granular alert filtering options, and enhanced executive level reporting would help teams present security insights more effectively to their clients.
Senior System Administrator at a consultancy with 51-200 employees
The adoption rate will be less compared to other products, as this can be a time-taken process because all my data needs to be offloaded and the system needs to understand my existing alerts, logs, and other things.
Associate Vice President at Novac Technology Solutions
The interface flickers frequently, and sometimes it does not load properly.
IT Security Analyst at a tech consulting company with 11-50 employees
Whenever OT security comes into the picture, the customers do not allow us to integrate their OT devices on a cloud. It should be available on-premises because the OT SIEM market, in the India market for instance, is something around a four to eight billion dollar market.

Featured Reviews

Adam Knubley - PeerSpot reviewer
Head Of IT at EA Gibson, Shipbrokers
Managed detection has improved visibility and response but still needs broader integrations
The best features Huntress Managed EDR offers do not really include any other features outside what other providers are doing; it was more about integrating with other tools that we already had with them. I find it easy to use Huntress Managed EDR; we don't operate within Huntress Managed EDR portal for EDR but have it work on our Defender data and through SIEM, which means we use a different interface and a different kind of portal to manage it. My impression of Huntress Managed EDR's ability to detect persistent footholds on our endpoints is adequate. I have the threat containment feature turned on, but we haven't seen any usage of it yet. I make use of Huntress Managed EDR's ability to automatically remediate low-severity threats; this automatic remediation affects my workload and security by purely blocking people trying to install applications, thereby stopping people from creating a bigger attack surface. The availability of Huntress Managed EDR for all major operating systems does not affect my organization's cybersecurity strategy.
reviewer2915043 - PeerSpot reviewer
System Engineer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Centralized monitoring has improved threat detection speed and simplified alert investigations
It would be helpful if some alerts had cleaner, clearer explanations right away, such as suggesting next steps inside the alert, and fewer clicks to get from alert to raw event details would make the triage even faster. Integration could be more plug-and-play, and improving built-in guidance for new analysts would help cut the learning curve. Performance-wise, it is adequate for us, but easier bulk searches would make investigations smoother. It would be helpful for each alert to come with clear suggested next steps right inside the alert, so analysts do not have to guess or click around too much. Making integration more plug-and-play would smooth out setup for new data sources.
