"Advanced Threat Detection Made Simple"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

I really like that Huntress Managed EDR is capable of identifying all threats that we've resolved so far. They've always been there for us 100%, and we've never had a situation where it didn't respond accordingly. It's really good and helpful because we don't have the expertise of a SOC analyst or specialize in security, so having these capabilities automated helps us protect valuable data. The setup was pretty straightforward, actually quite easy, and I've never seen a platform so advanced and so easy at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

Probably more segregation when it comes to other types of changes within the system. Reporting was one of the strongest points they are working on. I know they are working on it, so I know that something has been done already for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Security Management with Huntress Managed EDR"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

I love the Dashboard and Agent Status features, which let me quickly identify incidents, signals investigated, and agents. The detailed step-by-step remediation suggestions are very helpful and save a lot of time for security admins. I also prefer Huntress Managed EDR from an ease of use and management perspective compared to our previous solution, Carbon Black. The setup was extremely easy, and the SIEM is great too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

The User Management area of the admin console needs more granularity to assign or not assign specific permissions to sub-teams in our org, such as for Helpdesk. Managing Incident Notifications by team member is not possible; it requires removing the person then adding them back, which was an issue when a team member needed to update their phone on the backend.

"Huntress promised 24/7 threat defense and delivered... a year later"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

Huntress has expanded their offering to cover Defender, MS365, and Security Awareness. So far I've used all their modules and have been impressed each. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

Unfortunately their management for AV UI could be improved. And removing existing antivirus or enabling a windows defender thats been disabled is still a very manual process. But overall this doesnt affect my everyday protection so I can overlook it and use other tools in my RMM stack for these things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed EDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Huntress is able to monitor and defend thousands of endpoints, 24 hours a day. Even with a dedicated SOC team, this type of monitoring can be impossible. While all modern security tools provide round the clock monitoring, the remediation actions, end point isolation and well written human understandle alerting is great. Most alerts can also be fully remediated after a member of my team signs off on the suggested next steps. Makes even my youngest engineers look like security experts.

"No brainer, huntress is the standard by which all our other vendors are compared."

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

Support is still great, they seem to be branching out into more products like SEIM or ITDR but they are expensive and/or show little value-add in their current forms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

You are starting to see signs of the massive growth they have had, event responses and support are a little slower. Now you have an isolation event but it can be 15 to 30 minutes later till you get any actual details. Its nice they are still isolating first but it leaves you hanging with nothing to tell the customer except "its being investigated, whatever it is." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Huntress Managed EDR:

Just do it, very few products are such a great value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed EDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Huntress is our security eyes and ears in our clients' network, 24/7 they are looking for signs of compromise and reporting or even taking action if needed to keep my clients safe. Even when I'm asleep I know if something comes up not only will it be detected, but if action is needed to protect the rest of the network Huntresses team will Isolate the device for me until my team can get to it.

"Great deployment experience and easy to use response system"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

The reports & summary pages are helpful in identifying trouble areas (machines out of compliance with updates, etc...). We tested the system by planting infected files on different systems and running unapproved scripts & it's been able to identify & silo the effect PCs before anything could have been compromised. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

Some of the value fields for individual PCs are buried pretty deep in the user interface. It can be cumbersome to dig through & find things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed EDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

We previously lacked a central dashboard or notification system to alert us to security incidents. We had stand-alone anti-virus solutions installed on our clients and we'd have to check system logs or software alerts on each PC to see when there were breaches or incidents.

Huntress gives us a great dashboard with at-a-glance information letting us know when there are issues. The ability to setup alerts via TXT and phone calls is also a huge plus as we get incident alerts much quicker & it allows us to respond faster to issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Expert-led security with clear, tailored remediation steps"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

What I like most about Huntress is having a team of security experts who analyze the issue and then reach out to me with a tailored assessment and clear remediation steps. The cherry on top is that I can either handle the steps myself or allow Huntress to take care of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

There are a few minor issues, but they don’t detract from the overall product. Renaming computers isn’t an option, so they have to be named correctly on the computer itself. In a few places, dates appear either in UTC or DD-MM format, which can be a little confusing in the US. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed EDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Huntress tackles a common frustration with traditional security software: you get alerts, but you still don’t really understand what’s actually happening. It does a solid job of adding context by explaining what’s going on, pointing out which files and settings are impacted, and outlining the steps you need to take to clean up the issue properly. And they can remedy the issues for you which saves time and gives a sense of comfort knowing that an expert has cleaned the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Huntress - The one stop shop"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

Huntress is ever evolving to keep up with the current demands of IT Security, doing alot of the work for us, giving us more time to focus on any areas of the business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

I think the thing that would be great is if it identifies a Excel sheet for example that is called 'passwords.xlsx' If we then go and password protect the document, huntress doesnt have any method of us excluding that file. This would be great to prevent us logging elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed EDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Huntress EDR gives us the ability to properly manage and protect both Servers and Workstations, but also Office365 environments, in line with industry experts, while not throwing loads of resources at the ongoing maintenance and proactive monitoring.

It allows us to expand our product stack and give our customers the best possible chance of remaining protected, at a good price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable MDR That Actually Feels Like a Partner"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

The best part is the quality of their investigations. Huntress doesn’t just flag suspicious activity — they explain what they saw, why it matters, and what to do next. From a GRC and assurance perspective, that level of clarity makes it much easier to demonstrate control effectiveness and close the loop quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

I’d like to see more built‑in reporting options. The investigations are strong, but exporting clean evidence for audits or assurance reviews sometimes takes a bit of manual work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed EDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves the problem of proving that monitoring and response controls are actually working. Huntress provides clear investigations, documented actions, and a reliable audit trail. That makes assurance reviews smoother and reduces the time spent gathering evidence for stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Strong EDR for Enforcing Password-Protected File Access"

4/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

I like that EDR can catch users who navigate to password-protected files. We’re trying to enforce a stricter password policy to ensure everyone stays as safe as possible. It is incredibly easy to navigate the UI which I really appreciate. It is as easy to install onto devices as well, making the entire deployment process simple to integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

I wish that there was more capabilities for users who already have a AV or EDR service installed on their computer, or a simple override feature. For example, in testing, I am trying to remove Datto EDR and HP Pro Wolf Security off my device to allow Huntress to work properly, but I cannot seem to uninstall these easily. I wish Huntress was able to work as seamlessly as Datto EDR can alongside Wolf Security. I attempted to reach out to SOC / customer support and did not receive a response, I emailed to incidents@huntress.com and never got a response, so I wish support was better at reaching back out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed EDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

As stated above, we are using Huntress to catch files with passwords for now, before rolling out other aspects since we cannot get the full EDR experience due to the conflicting software installed. We have also gotten a few ransomware alerts and was able to use Huntress to verify false positives, which has been incredibly valuable - as Ransomware attacks are an "all-hands-on-deck" issue.

"Seamless Integration and Stellar Protection"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed EDR?

I really appreciate the 'single pane of glass' that Huntress Managed EDR offers, which allows all modules to tie in and integrate together seamlessly inside the admin console. Integration is key for me, as it lets me automate things and manage multiple tools at once. This ability to blend solutions into one pane of glass is the best thing ever. I also love the value and quality of endpoint protection provided. Scalability and automation are other aspects I like. The initial setup was too easy, which was great. Huntress Managed EDR was my first choice, and I love it so much that I can't imagine switching. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed EDR?

At this time, I can't think of anything that don't work other than maybe more flexibility and customization and integration with the new SAT module? But since it's pretty new, I'm sure it's gonna be coming in the near future to have more white labeled customization flexibility with that solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
