It monitors the latest threats and gives me a broader perspective of what's hitting us
Binary Defense's most valuable feature is the 24/7 monitoring and threat hunting. Their team checks the latest breaches and how they're done. The MDR team contains all their clients' accounts for this type of behavior. Their interface is customizable, but I don't need to tweak it much because it's already fairly intuitive. The dashboard shows all of our endpoints and threat hunting. You can see the false positives on the dashboard, showing the systems getting hit the most. Everything the solution protects is there so I can check everything in about 10 minutes. Integrating Binary Defense doesn't cause a noticeable slowdown in performance. It doesn't interfere with any programs that I've seen so far. Our environment is cloud-based, so no local servers are involved in our everyday endpoint activity. A few servers are in the stadium, and we put agents on them to monitor them. It works great. Binary Defense doesn't interfere with any of it.

Offers robust real-time monitoring capabilities but issues with stability of the solution
The deployment could definitely be improved. We still have some of the RedCloak agents. They don't have a remote-controlled uninstall. You have to manually connect to every machine to remove it. Taegis, that's not an issue with Taegis. Taegis actually does work that way. You can remove it. We push it out from Intune. But the RedCloak has tied it even after supposedly running the uninstall; it's still there. In future releases, if Taegis could come with bundled AV. It would be a great feature, which was actually one of the reasons why we moved to CrowdStrike because of the bundled solution.

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

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From the initial cost that Binary Defense came in with, we pared it down quite a bit over the course of 30 or 60 days. My leadership would say that their cost was high, but realistically, they were in line with the market."
"The pricing isn't that bad, it's very competitive. I don't feel that it's over-priced and I don't feel that it's under-priced."
"Binary Defense has changed its pricing model from being primarily based on the volume of data to one based on escalations and incidents they handle."
"It's valued at the right price. Even with the number of endpoints we have, we don't feel that it's a lot more than any competitor. In fact, it might be less expensive when you look at the fact that you're getting a full flex SOC out of it along with the tools."
"After we acquired this platform, we met with a number of different vendors. Binary Defense came in with a proposal that was surprisingly affordable. In fact, we were able to recoup the cost of their services within a short period of time. This is because Binary Defense is able to provide the same level of security as a team of two or three in-house analysts but at a fraction of the cost. As a result, Binary Defense is saving us an estimated $250,000 to $300,000 per year."
"The pricing is very good. They are definitely competitive and they were lower at the time that we went with them."
"The pricing is on target. Working with their sales team on pricing negotiations was a pleasant process. They were very respectful of the constraints we had and I feel that we're paying a fair price."
"Binary Defense MDR is priced competitively and may be slightly lower than CrowdStrike."
"The Red Cloak agent is free."
"Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR is very expensive and could be more cost-effective."
"The price is kind of on par. The licensing was comparable to other solutions. It's not particularly high or low."
"The pricing of Dell Secureworks is very reasonable."
"It is expensive but there is no better product than this."
"Initially, the cost was going to be something around $160 or $170. And eventually, I think they brought it down to $110 and they also threw in some endpoint protection platforms."
"The pricing for this solution is reasonable. One agent costs approximately 270 dirhams/70 USD for one year. There is a reduction in cost per licence as the number of licences used increases."
