Experienced reduced alert fatigue with streamlined notifications
We use Blackpoint Cyber MDR for our higher-end clients who need a higher level of control over security We get a deeper look into security related events that are otherwise difficult find and analyze. Security operations does a good job of weeding out the noise. I appreciate that there are…

Soc Analyst at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Improved identity threat visibility has enabled faster investigations and structured triage
Huntress Managed ITDR could be improved by providing more detailed alert context, clearer investigation steps, and better integration with SIEM and SOAR tools. Reducing false positives and offering more customization for alert severity would also help SOC analysts prioritize genuine threats and investigate them more efficiently. I would also like to see more detailed incident timelines, better alert correlation, and more flexible reporting options. These improvements would help our SOC analysts understand the full context of identity-related threats, reduce manual investigation efforts, and make it easier to track security trends over time. I think Huntress Managed ITDR's AI governance and security could be improved by providing more transparency into how AI-driven detections work, how customer data is protected, and how decisions are made. Clear documentation on data privacy, access controls, and human oversight would help build trust and ensure AI-assisted threat detection remains secure and reliable. I find the AI capabilities useful for identifying suspicious identity activities and supporting investigations. However, accuracy and reliability depend on the quality of the alerts and available context. I would like to see fewer false positives, more transparent explanations for detections, and consistent results to help our SOC analysts make informed decisions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"The solution is all encompassing and can incorporate email monitoring."
"On my end, the most valuable feature of this solution is that I can install it and forget about it. After that, their SOC team takes over and they only call me when there's a problem."
"On a scale from one to ten, I would rate the overall solution as a ten."
"I appreciate that there are people behind the scenes sorting out valuable alerts from those that are not, so I only get alerts when they are real."
"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"The main takeaway is that the solution, not just this, the solution in general, the EDR as well, has allowed me to expand revenue, but more importantly, protect my clients in a way I have never been able to do before."
"Implementing Huntress Managed ITDR has improved our business by allowing us to be more proactive with our security posture."
"Overall, it's something that each organization or company should look at investing in, and it's a great tool to have."
"However, with Huntress Managed ITDR, we don't have to deal with those scenarios because they simply don't happen."
"I rate the overall solution as a ten out of ten."
"My advice for others looking into using Huntress Managed ITDR would be to definitely give a trial, try them out, see how your customers appreciate it, and I bet that they will love it."
"You get value, and you get more value than most people realize from their products versus competitors."
"The centralized management with the EDR and ITDR is beneficial."
 

Cons

"While I am very satisfied with the service, supporting additional platforms, particularly Linux support, would be a beneficial improvement."
"The interface could be more intuitive."
"The interface could be more intuitive. More transparency is needed in the interface as a lot of details are hidden behind the scenes, making them difficult or impossible to access."
"The solution does not tie into other EDR products like CyberArk or CrowdStrike but that might be more useful."
"Some texts seem to report items as normal too quickly."
"The feature we keep asking for is a vulnerability scan."
"What I would like to see improved or maybe enhanced in Huntress Managed ITDR is that when you first set it up for a tenant, there are a number of false positives that pop up."
"A downside of Huntress Managed ITDR is that some devices show they are not super compatible with the Defender for Endpoint integration."
"The only other thing I would say would be better with Huntress Managed ITDR is regarding my work with educational customers where budgets are very tight. I would have preferred to see a pricing model where you pay per domain name rather than per user, because that would make it more cost-effective for schools to get on board with Huntress Managed ITDR."
"Huntress Managed ITDR could be improved by providing more detailed alert context, clearer investigation steps, and better integration with SIEM and SOAR tools."
"Huntress Managed ITDR could improve by cleaning up the dashboard interface."
"Setting up and managing exceptions in Huntress Managed ITDR does come with challenges, primarily because we often fail to document our own processes."
"I see improvements to the HaloPSA integration as something that could be better; it would be good to see more information in the ticket raised."
"If I had to say a dislike would be I wish there was a little bit more customization."
