    When compared to Kerio Control we found Central Management of filtering to be much easier, it also allowed us to apply filtering to remote devices like laptops and had better logging. We found DNSFilter to be much easier to deploy then Webroot DNS Protection because Webroot …

    I like how easy it is to manage the filtering software from the web portal. It's super straightforward to set up my networking equipment with clear instructions. I like that it automatically blocks threats without me having to do anything. It also lets me remotely manage both of our locations and networks from the same portal with the same policies. Very useful for saving time setting up content filtering.

    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.

    Cons
    DNSFilter, Inc.
    • Improved scalability: As an organization's needs grow and evolve, the software should be able to scale up and handle an increasing number of users and devices.
    • More granular controls: The ability to set more detailed and specific policies, such as the ability to block certain types of content for specific groups of users, would give organizations more flexibility and control over their internet usage.
    • Advanced threat protection: Increasing the software's ability to detect and protect against advanced threats such as zero-day exploits and APTs would provide a more comprehensive security solution.

    • 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.

    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.

    When compared to Kerio Control we found Central Management of filtering to be much easier, it also allowed us to apply filtering to remote devices like laptops and had better logging. We found DNSFilter to be much easier to deploy then Webroot DNS Protection because Webroot required the Anti Virus to be installed before deployment was even possible, and reporting features were very lacking.

    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.

    • We used to deploy Cisco Umbrella before switching to DNSFilter. I feel like you need an advanced degree to set up and manage Cisco Umbrella. Not the case with DNSFilter. You will save time and money by leveraging a very easy to use product.
