Never misses anything and has an attractive price point and a simple interface
One thing they could improve is evolving from an EDR to an MDR, like Blackpoint. This transition would enable automatic remediation of anything that looks dangerous, including within Microsoft 365. For instance, when one of my clients' Microsoft 365 account was breached, Blackpoint identified suspicious activity and disabled the account. It was in Dallas, and we are in California. Blackpoint knew something was wrong there, and they went in and disabled the account. Developing more automated remediation features would elevate them to an MDR level, but I understand that it might affect pricing. They are trying to keep it at a good price point because once they go to MDR, it is probably going to double the price. For now, I find the current features satisfactory, as they continue to add improvements. They have added security awareness training and then log collectors. They are adding pillars as they move along, and I assume they are going to have an option for MDR.

Pros

"Their SOC is super responsive and does a great job of catching incidences and being on top of any issues that arise."
"It is incredibly efficient for our engineering team because Huntress provides all the information needed to fix issues, not just flag them."
"Huntress Managed EDR has helped me reduce the need for expensive security tools or to hire expensive security analysts."
"The solution's most valuable feature is that it has a manned security operation center, not AI-driven."
"For us, Huntress Managed EDR has been a game changer for the SMB market."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"Huntress helps by highlighting potential issues, allowing us to take proactive measures."
"Huntress Managed EDR eliminates the need to outsource expensive security tools or analysts, avoiding the high costs associated with external solutions."
"I find Trend Micro Cloud App Security useful for scanning our email boxes. We can scan them one by one, which is a good feature. It's not just gateway-level protection - we integrate the email system with it. They have special protection and parameters for phishing emails."
"Trend Micro has DLP features in it, which separates it from other solutions."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"Trend Micro Cloud App is easy to use and easy to install."

Cons

"The application control system could benefit from improvements in identifying and managing both whitelisted and blacklisted applications."
"Installing Huntress on a Mac presents a challenge for end users due to the operating system's security features, which require administrator privileges for installation."
"In the next release, I'd like to see more intuitive dashboards."
"Some of Huntress' reporting could be improved."
"One area for improvement in Huntress would be to allow for PSA integration from a specific IP address or hostname for better security measures."
"Their EDR can have increased coverage for Macintosh. They do not fully secure Macintosh computers."
"The existing features are perfect. However, I think they could add a more robust set of security features like dark web scanning, penetration testing, and risk assessment for clients. We would have one tool for everything. We wouldn't have to go to multiple vendors to pull something together. That would be more beneficial for us."
"The integration with Autotask could be improved."
"The solution's technical support services could be better."
"In the next release, I would like to see the cost go down."
"There is room for improvement in the DLP component of Trend Micro Cloud App Security."
"For improvements, I think it would be great if Trend Micro Cloud App Security could enhance their product to be a single SASE solution. It should be similar to competitors like Palo Alto."
"They should provide separate corporate-level licenses for two to three instances."
"The price of the solution could improve by being lower."
"It would be great if Trend Mail Cloud App Security would be joined with a web security solution, making it a multiple-network solution."
"The granulation of the policy setup needs to be better. Right now, it is too basic."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding the pricing for Huntress Managed EDR, I was amazed when I heard the price; I thought it was going to be way more than what it is based on the quality."
"Huntress is priced fairly for the services and value it provides."
"Huntress is an easy sell to clients because it does all the heavy lifting. Sometimes, they will buck a little at the price because they want a free antivirus or EDR. We tell them that we use Huntress on all our machines. That is our standard process for all the machines we roll out. When we give that advice, people are pretty willing to say okay."
"The pricing is competitive, in line with Huntress's offerings, and aligns well with our business model."
"I rate the product pricing six out of ten for the Malaysian market. However, I would rate it a three out of ten for the Australian, New Zealand, or Singapore markets."
"Huntress Managed EDR offers a fair pricing model."

"I believe Huntress offers competitive pricing overall."
"The product's pricing is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
"The pricing of the solution could be better."
"The price of Trend Micro Cloud App Security is expensive for regular users. There are not any hidden fees. First-time users of the solution should purchase implementation packages or professional services."
"The cost of the license is on the high side. It's a yearly subscription."
