The solution’s interface is also nice and easy to use. The Huntress team saves us time by going through the issues."
"I have found it valuable that this solution is always there and always armed."
"It catches things that no one else catches. We occasionally have things slip through antivirus and other things, but Huntress catches them. It is awesome as an additional layer of defense on top of other things."
"It is incredibly efficient for our engineering team because Huntress provides all the information needed to fix issues, not just flag them."

"What we're using the most and what we found valuable in McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response are Web Control, Advanced Threat Protection, and Threat Prevention features."
"Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) offers endpoint protection and helps collect information while also allowing users to investigate malicious files in an IT environment...It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The solution is not stable."

"In the next release, I'd like to see more intuitive dashboards."
"I'd like Huntress to implement a component that can analyze network traffic for specific sites."
"Their EDR can have increased coverage for Macintosh. They do not fully secure Macintosh computers."
"We need an API to automatically retrieve metrics and data about backend activity so we can generate client reports."
"The Huntress is not a standalone solution. It really needs to be used with something else such as Microsoft Defender or another antivirus solution. It would be nice to see the product fleshed out by the Huntress team and include the antivirus solution part as well. I want it to be a full-fledged XDR product. It would push the tool to a higher price range but it would be nice to see the fleshed out features. I want them to integrate more features from the XDR realm."
"I would like the API to be a little better. They are getting there."
"Huntress' Process Insights feature could benefit from more robust search and filtering capabilities."
"The dashboard and reporting features are not so user-friendly or intuitive, so they need some work."
"Some modules that are doing machine learning and artificial intelligence are blocking our processes."
"The console has a lot of bugs, and it creates many issues."
"Trellix does not support Linux and Mac."
"The endpoints and utilization are too high, which impacts the production activity."
"The technical support must be improved."
"The alert feature of McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response needs improvement because for you to get the alerts, you have to log on to the portal. What my company needs is a tool that sends you alerts. For example, if it detects a threat on your machine, it should send you an alert. My company gets the alerts instead from the antivirus software rather than the EDR. If you want to see the alerts on McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response, you have to connect to the system manually. Another area for improvement in the tool is the reporting. My company needs weekly and monthly reports about the alerts, but you can't extract reports from McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response, so a decision was made to move to another EDR solution, particularly Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, next month. My company tested Microsoft Defender for Endpoint via a POC for one to three months. The resource usage of McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response is also an area for improvement because it consumes a lot of memory. For example, during the on-demand scan, you can't work because of the high CPU usage. You need to schedule the scans. McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response has a lot of modules, but my company doesn't use all modules."
"The solution's downside stems from the fact that Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and McAfee MVISION Endpoint are not combined into a single solution, so from an improvement perspective, they need to be combined into a single solution."
