Avast Software
Avast CloudCare is great when it comes to ease of installation and GUI. Working inside the web portal is pretty self-intuitive. Some of the issues revolve around computers coming up missing from the portal or from computer jumping sites.

Huntress is great for a managed service provider to provide a better cybersecurity stack to their endpoints/customers. Some smaller clients cannot afford high-priced SOC services but require SOC-level protection. Along with a couple of other layers of security, Huntress provides peace of mind for the MSP that if a threat were to arise, they would be notified with specific instructions for dealing with that threat.

  • [I] would like to see more SOC as a Service - service from them.

Alternatives Considered

We used to use Norton AV exclusively for all our business and home users, but it got to where it was using a lot of system resources and would slow down some computers. We selected Avast cloud care since it was a lighter weight program and provided great results as far as protection.

Return on Investment

  • Avast CloudCare has stopped one of our customers for downloading a virus.
  • Reporting on immediate threats so we could deal with the issue before it infected the network.
  • Was alerted of an issue and was able to set a full scan on the entire network with one function.

  • Detections that antivirus misses
  • Their price doubled recently so I had to talk to clients about the increase.
  • The ROI is immediate for some clients and hasn't detected anything at others.
