Overall Satisfaction with Huntress

At my company we use Huntress for an external layer of protection for the network. We rely on Huntress to inform of us external threats or attempts to penetrate the network.

The main business problem that Huntress solves is protection and awareness of the unknown actors and processes trying to brute force into the network. Short of hiring a SOC service, which can be quite expensive, Huntress is the best value for peace of mind from external threats.
  • External threat reporting
  • External threat protection
  • External threat remediation
  • The portal has not really been updated
  • UI can be an adjustment to get used to
  • There are sometimes false positives
  • Incredible value for the service
  • Business-saving information of exploit attempts
  • Extremely easy deployment to the network resources
Carbon Black was much more expensive and had a bit more buy-in than we were able to sell companies on. The portal was not as simplified. The services are similar in execution, and we did not find Carbon Black lacking, but Huntress is easy to use, easy to deploy, and a better value.

Huntress is well suited for small to medium sized businesses who cannot afford a SOC team or third party service, but still need another layer of cybersecurity protection. Antivirus, Antimalware, firewalls etc are all well and good and 100% necessary, but these days they are just not enough. There are exploits, missing patches, and vulnerabilities that well publicized and a full time job to stay on top of - Huntress is here to help with that.
