Considered Both Products	Huntress Brady Phenicie Ownr Chose Huntress We have walked away from Webroot. To many issues with Apple devices. No help from support. Incentivized Helpful? WP William Press Cloud Project Manager Chose Huntress 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 … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Huntress To be honest, I haven't run into anything like Huntress. It's not a threat protection platform and it doesn't simply look for configuration changes. It is a unique product that starts with searching for footholds and grew into educating the user base on what cybersecurity is … Incentivized Helpful? Chris Loehr EVP Chose Huntress This is a difficult question because Huntress really doesn't compete with other products per se. There are EDR products that tout the same capabilities as Huntress, so if you were to compare just those features, you would still see Huntress as a winner because they are … Incentivized Helpful? Scott Quimby VP & CTO Chose Huntress Pre-EDR Huntress is really unique in what it does. It is hard to directly compare that against anything since it is changed based Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Huntress Huntress identified fileless malware that was not detected by ESET Antivirus and a KMS activation bypass that was installed on a server. Incentivized Helpful? Trevor Murphy Information Technology Security Manager Chose Huntress Huntress may not be a complete SOC such as Blackpoint, but the level of protection is close. Huntress provides a set of human eyes always hunting for persistent threats on your endpoints. Huntress also seems less noisy with no false positives, so no time is wasted reviewing … Incentivized Helpful? DW David Westgate CIO (Chief Information Officer) Chose Huntress 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 … Incentivized Helpful? DD Daniel Diaz IT Manager Chose Huntress Artic Wolf offers a superior service with dedicated resources and personalized service. This is offered at a premium price and we decided not to invest very heavily in this type of service yet. We don't need a dedicated team with intimate knowledge of our business at this time. … Incentivized Helpful? SB Scott Brewster Chief Technology Officer Chose Huntress Easier to add and remove the agent from PCs. In our experience, others are horrendous to try to remove when a customer leaves. The UI is superior through its simplicity. For us, deployment was also much easier than BlackPoint or SentinelOne. Webroot was easy to install, but … Incentivized Helpful? LB Lucas Burnett Sales Director Chose Huntress Not only is Huntress a better product from a usability standpoint, its also lighter on system resources and support is second to none Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Huntress Basically we went with Huntress because of simplicity and reputation. We still use ESET for AV but felt their EDR product was reactionary to Huntress existing, rather than a particularly well thought out product. In my experience, Sophos is just too buggy in everything they do. … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Huntress Huntress understands the needs of their partners in regards to need a solid solution, actionable items when threats hit, a SOC team that is able to intelligently respond, while also maintaining reasonable costs. Huntress checked all the boxes that we needed from competing … Incentivized Helpful?	Webroot MDR No answer on this topic

User Testimonials
	Huntress	Webroot Managed Detection and Response
Likelihood to Recommend	A great product that highlights any and all persistent footholds on the network and does a great job on breach monitoring. The support staff are great, efficient, and are able to reach out when there is an issue. Most problems are cleared out/mitigated before we even know about them. A great product to add to your security stack. DW David Westgate CIO (Chief Information Officer) Read full review	No answers on this topic
Pros	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. Incentivized Scott Quimby VP & CTO Read full review	No answers on this topic
Cons	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	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.

Alternatives Considered	Huntress may not be a complete SOC such as Blackpoint, but the level of protection is close.

Return on Investment	We have been able to lower operational costs by shifting to Huntress. We've been able to cut costs to our clients by utilizing Huntress over competing products. In spite of inflation, we've been able to keep our managed service prices at a steady, below market rate, because of Huntress.
