    You need to have some domain expertise when deploying this type of solution. It is not difficult for an intermediate-skill person to deploy. Fine-tuning will take time and patience to sift through false positive alerts in alert mode, since there is no official learning mode. I think small- to medium-sized businesses with limited IT budget and expertise could benefit from this solution.

    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.

    • Using the latest industry knowledge of threats that have been ongoing, but not previously known and projecting it back in time against their installed endpoints to identify machines that are vulnerable or breached and when it these events occurred
    • Very quiet. If they alert, it is a thing.
    • Very good at remediation.
    • They communicate extremely well when it matters.
    • While there are the most extensive products more often than not they are the first to alert us to a threat.

    • Now that they have EDR capability, they need to fully participate in MITRE testing for direct comparison against other EDR products.
    • Now that they are going into Managed Antivirus and EDR with isolation capabilities they need to update their SLA comparative to other vendors
    • Support for non-Windows OSes for consistency in a network
    • It would be nice to seed canary files in custom shares on servers.

    Usability
    BlackBerry
    I think the usability is solid for the small-to-medium market. I am not familiar with an enterprise deployment or constraints for that market size. I think the ease of use, deployment, and cost model make it attractive to small- and medium-sized businesses looking to build their security posture.

    We dropped SentinelOne in favor of Huntress because the UI was much more simplistic for the tier 1 techs to maintain. It beats the old web design model of three clicks to where you want to go. It is very intuitive. No one needs training to figure out how to navigate its console.

    Cylance is a very competitive product. The only reason we went with Microsoft Defender is the bundling of multiple products from the same vendor and having one central console to manage our devices.

    Firstly from a business model, [VMware] Carbon Black [Cloud Managed Detection] was not outfitted for the MSP where Huntress is very MSP-friendly from an affordably easy point to entry to value for money licensing. Carbon Black TS is not bad in anyway, well, that we found, but Huntress is a new layer of security that fits between the OS and AV layers to provide additional information, monitoring, and detection. With Huntress backing the MSP, [it] sure does help as well.
