    I enjoy how well it integrates Cisco systems to provide a single pane of glass for security events that are easily digestible to the SOC. However there is room for improvement to integrate more seamlessly with non Cisco products. XDR is great to identify where malicious processes are in the MITR kill chain and is useful for threat analysis.

    SyncroMSP is great for MSPs starting out or wanting to keep their costs low. Some RMM software will charge per install - and price breaks only available as your base grows to a significant number. As Syncro is a "per agent" cost, the costs for an MSP are (a) known and (b) easily to manage as the team grows. The third-party integration element is very useful for MSPs looking to be able to not only onsell additional services, but the management of these services is simple for anybody to use

    • Due to the cloud based platform, we could scale the based on our needs relatively with ease.
    • We also utilized the auto billing features which were convenience.
    • The consolidation of both RMM and RSA decreased the amount of software we needed.
    • Also, the user friendliness of the platform allowed employees to use easy.

    While both products were both easy to use and would have fit our environment, we are a very heavy Cisco shop and Cisco Cisco XDR fit better with the rest of our software portfolio. Stellar Cyber has some additional functionality in addition to Cisco XDR but the cost difference didn't work with our budget.

    • The integrated AV solution with Bitdefender is very cheap - yet very a very high quality NGAV solution. It allows us to ensure our clients have access to an NGAV solution at an affordable price
    • Syncro has allowed us to expend our business into new areas which were not able to be accessed previously. This means that we can now service our clients in different ways than previously.
    • The fixed cost pricing allows our teams to understand what their costs are - but also allow us to grow the business and customer base with no increase in costs until we increase our technical team.
