Room For Improvement

Huntress Managed SIEM needs better integrations, user interface, alert customization, automation, reporting, AI capabilities, and governance improvements.
USM Anywhere needs improved performance, user interface, integration, and support, with better updates and less disruptive software changes.
I would like Huntress Managed SIEM to integrate with EDRs like SentinelOne to combine that level of intelligence and information into their stack.

I believe Huntress Managed SIEM could be improved by increasing integrations with non-Microsoft solutions as this would broaden its appeal.

In my opinion, there is room for improvement in Huntress Managed SIEM, particularly in integration with third-party solutions.

Setup Cost

Huntress Managed SIEM offers cost-efficient, transparent pricing based on data sources with easy setup and trial availability.
USM Anywhere offers scalable, affordable SIEM solutions ideal for SMBs, recommended for budget-conscious enterprises over costly competitors.
I believe most competitors charge by the data slightly differently compared to how this solution does, as it is per data source rather than data size in gigabytes.

Featured Reviews

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.
