ContraForce Reviews & Product Details

ContraForce is an AI operations control plane for MSSPs, MSPs, and security operations teams delivering managed detection and response on Microsoft Sentinel and Microsoft Defender XDR. The platform orchestrates multi-tenant incident operations by automating triage, investigation, enrichment, and guided response actions through Security Delivery Agents—AI-driven workflow operators that execute repeatable SOC tasks under policy controls. Core capabilities include: - Gamebooks – SOP-driven playbooks that standardize workflows and enforce consistent execution across customer environments. - Human-in-the-loop controls – Approval gates and audit logging for safe, governed response actions. - Multi-tenant operations – Centralized management across multiple Microsoft security tenants without data duplication. - PSA and ticketing integrations – Native connections to ServiceNow, Jira, Autotask, and service management tools. ContraForce deploys in approximately 30 minutes using federated access, keeping security data in the customer tenant with no complex data migration required. Security teams use ContraForce to reduce triage effort, improve investigation consistency, and scale Microsoft-native MXDR delivery without proportional headcount growth. Ideal for: MSSPs, MSPs, and enterprise SOC teams operating Microsoft Sentinel and Defender XDR at scale.

"Highly Recommend ContraForce!"

5/5

What do you like best about ContraForce?

ContraForce makes managing our cybersecurity efforts simple without a dedicated cybersecurity team. The platform is simple yet effective. Our team really likes the automated incident response (automated gamebooks). We are notified of an incident and can respond with one click (i.e. reset password, block an IP address, isolate endpoint, invalidate user sessions, lockout user, and more). We can also observe data activity for all our data sources and easily add a new data source to the platform. Overall, we've had a fantastic experience using ContraForce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ContraForce?

When we started using ContraForce, we couldn't observe activity for our data sources. However, we communicated this need, and they implemented this feature shortly after. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ContraForce solving and how is that benefiting you?

The FTC requires our organization to develop, implement, and maintain an information security program. We're too big to rely on a dedicated MSP but too small for an internal security team. ContraForce allows our IT team to consolidate our security tools into one platform and quickly respond to incidents. Further, we're a Microsoft shop, so ContraForce allows us to make existing investments more optimal without investing in other products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Demystifying Cybersecurity for SMEs"

4.5/5

What do you like best about ContraForce?

Having been in Cybersecurity for the last 30+ years, we now see organizations simplifying cybersecurity for organizations that are under-funded and resource-constrained. ContraForce is ideally suited to work in a predominantly Microsoft environment and can be operationalized quickly automating the process of protecting one's environment from cyber threats. Using a point and click mechanism, ContraForce quickly understands what other data sources exist and immediately starts learning about the environment in which it has been deployed.

We have worked with Contraforce for the last 2 years frequently assessing their solution as a MSSP tool. Our assessment confirms its ease of use, requiring minimum resources, automating the process of advising events, the criticality associated with the event and any remediation required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ContraForce?

There is not much to dislike. ContraForce went GA in April. As more and more people deploy the solution, ContraForce will add to the functionality making it more feature-rich and valuable to organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ContraForce solving and how is that benefiting you?

No organization is exempt from being targeted by cyber criminals, whether it be to steal credentials, exfiltrate private or personal information, steal IP, commit fraud or carry out a ransomware attack. Contraforce connects to a wide range of existing security controls from the likes of Microsoft Defender, Symantec, Crowdstrike, etc, and monitors for any attacks. If a attack is detected, ContraForce will automate the notification process and move to contain the breach with minimal or no human involvement. If human intervention is required, ContraForce will immediately send out notifications and mitigation recommendations.

No longer does an organization need to overspend on 24 x 365 cybersecurity monitoring solutions coupled with teams of analysts and technical experts to deal with cyber attacks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Must Have - M365 Monitoring"

5/5

What do you like best about ContraForce?

It is a highly cost-effective way to ensure our SaaS environment is monitored. M365 is a critical business function for any company, and ensuring it is adequately monitored is vital. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ContraForce?

I haven't found anything I dislike about Contraforce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ContraForce solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having an existing AI-based antivirus and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solution that monitors company resoures, we realized there was a gap related to the M365 ecosystem as this can be accessed outside of a company resource. Contraforce has allowed us to close that gap within minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
