Managed detection has reduced threat anxiety and provides fast responses across diverse clients
I would appreciate more features in the stack. I would like Huntress MDR and SIEM to integrate with EDRs like SentinelOne to combine that level of intelligence and information into their stack so that they can leverage whatever protections the client has and gather that intelligence to help with the MDR side. Regarding the SIEM, I would like to see more features added. I would appreciate the capability of setting our own alerting based on certain triggers within the logs so that we can compete and fill a void that their SIEM has compared to other SIEMs in the industry such as Perch Security for ConnectWise.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Huntress Managed SIEM's response time is far superior to any other vendor we have tested in terms of MDR."
"Huntress is a great company and incredibly helpful with deployment."
"The single pane of glass management with the other security products we use from Huntress is incredibly valuable."
"Pricing was a very important consideration and lower than the other SIEM solutions evaluated."
"Phishing sites were detected and it secured the environment from the upcoming threat."
"I would encourage others to go with this solution because it is easy to deploy, and it provides good tools to know more about your network and the traffic on it."
"The product has been very stable."
"Asset discovery seems to be good."
"I can easily check (in one place) all the logs and data in relation to attacks. It also gives me an overview if a server is not configured properly."
"The most valuable feature is threat intelligence."
"The ROI is very good if you evaluate all the services which AlienVault can help you with: detection of Malware, bad activities, suspicious behavior, etc."
 

Cons

"There should be better exclusions of log types and the ability to exclude specific types of logs that might be using a lot of data."
"There should be better exclusions of log types and the ability to exclude specific types of logs that might be using a lot of data."
"I would appreciate more features in the stack. I would like Huntress Managed SIEM to integrate with EDRs like SentinelOne to combine that level of intelligence and information into their stack so that they can leverage whatever protections the client has and gather that intelligence to help with the MDR side."
"The reporting module could be a little easier to handle, as it requires quite some trial and error until you get the reports you want."
"There are many reports included but would be nice to have better access to the data."
"Maybe logs are the problem, as the database query is too slow. If you want to search something, you need time to find it."
"The search capabilities are not optimal and are going to be optimized in the next versions."
"Backup, restore, and upgrade - some menu options are a bit convoluted."
"The solution is very user-friendly, but the dashboard could be improved as well as the level of customization."
"The GUI needs to improve because it's not user-friendly."
"USM Anywhere relies a lot on the community putting the data in. Often, you'll right-click on the attack, but nothing will be found. That's a weakness of it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"AT&T AlienVault USM is an expensive solution and we pay for the license and the support separately. We paid for the license and support for three years."
"So far, it has been a good solution for a tight budget."
"So far, I feel the product's pricing is a good value. The technology is decent. You get what you pay for. I think it's fair."
"The price of this solution is reasonable, which is one of the reasons why we selected it over other solutions."
"​The vulnerability management solution is worse than buying a Nessus Professional license.​"
"They charge a license based on the storage. ATT AlienVault USM is a less expensive solution than IBM QRadar."
"It allows you to do a lot with a small price tag... The pricing is the best on the market."
"Its price is in the medium to upper range."
