Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The EDR product is simple to install. It is low maintenance. All the alerts go to Huntress first, and their analyst team reviews them and sends actionable things our way.""It is incredibly efficient for our engineering team because Huntress provides all the information needed to fix issues, not just flag them.""It is very easy to use. It is a great solution. They are one of the better vendors that I have ever worked with since I have been in the industry.""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.""Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...I rate the technical support a ten out of ten.""Foothold detection is a valuable feature, acting as a valuable second set of eyes for both us and our clients.""Huntress' best feature is the threat-hunting expertise that is part of their 24/7 SOC.""While threat hunting is undoubtedly the most valuable feature, the combination of IP scanning, foothold identification, and canary monitoring has also proven to be incredibly beneficial."

"This antivirus is regularly updated, and the updates can be scheduled.""The solution really focused on giving more security than an antivirus.""ZoneAlarm protects all computers from viruses, spyware, and hackers.""It is quick and easy to configure.""The phone access scan stands out as the most valuable feature for me.""It gives us security for the users' mobiles and ends up protecting us in a significant way.""Personally, I find the Game Mode of the Firewall very useful.""It is easy to use through interfaces and easy to configure each of the customizations we created based on the characteristics that we wanted."

Cons
"I am anxiously watching to see how they evolve their MDR for Office 365. If anything, I would like more automated remediation capabilities in their MDR for Office 365.""The application control system could benefit from improvements in identifying and managing both whitelisted and blacklisted applications.""Huntress' Process Insights feature could benefit from more robust search and filtering capabilities.""In the next release, I'd like to see more intuitive dashboards.""The solution's UI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement.""We need an API to automatically retrieve metrics and data about backend activity so we can generate client reports.""I would like the API to be a little better. They are getting there.""I'd like Huntress to implement a component that can analyze network traffic for specific sites."

More Huntress Cons →

"Perhaps the primary area for potential enhancement is to make it faster, ensuring a more seamless experience while maintaining robust security features.""They should release a single update with all the necessary characteristics to avoid being in a cycle of consecutive updates.""We'd like better performance of the network equipment. There are high-speed environments where an immediate response is required.""Currently, the client is only available for the Windows Operating System but it would be good if it were released for Mac OS as well.""I would like it to be integrated with the Check Point centralization solution like Infinity Portal. It would be great to be able to manage it through the same website.""ZoneAlarm should be a light application that does not take too much memory in mobile phones.""The support is not always so effective.""Some of our users say that the interface is a little bit outdated for 2020, and want it to be more modern and cozy."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The tool’s price is very good. You just need to pay for the standard license. However, you need to pay the additional cost for Microsoft Defender."
  • "I rate the product's price a five or six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive since it is a fairly priced product."
  • "The pricing is competitive, in line with Huntress's offerings, and aligns well with our business model."
  • "It is simple. It is reasonable. They raised my prices this year. We never like price increases, but they continue to add value, so we just keep adding agents as we grow and as our clients grow."
  • "While other options have emerged since Huntress' arrival, I believe it still offers the best value for the features and services it provides."
  • "Huntress is priced fairly for the services and value it provides."
  • "It is fair. They provide good value for the product that they deliver. I have had one price increase in the entire time I have used them. They added a bunch of features and then said that they have to increase our price a little bit. That is a fair way to handle it."
  • "The pricing model for Huntress is similar to competitors and is charged per endpoint."

  • "We use the free version of the software, but it can be upgraded to the paid Extreme Security edition."
