"The main thing is that I feel safe. Because the processes that have been used to get a handle on the attackers are much better than other competitors"

"It has increased productivity. IT threats are kept at a minimum because of this product."
"It's straightforward to set up."
"It warns you if there is a threat and it's perfect because it runs in the background and doesn't interfere with anything."

"It's not heavy on the system."
"Our favorite feature is the PC Patch Management."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The performance is good compared to other products that slow down the laptop, post-installation."
"The EDR product is simple to install. It is low maintenance. All the alerts go to Huntress first, and their analyst team reviews them and sends actionable things our way."
"It is very easy to use. It is a great solution. They are one of the better vendors that I have ever worked with since I have been in the industry."
"I have found it valuable that this solution is always there and always armed."
"It is incredibly efficient for our engineering team because Huntress provides all the information needed to fix issues, not just flag them."
"Foothold detection is a valuable feature, acting as a valuable second set of eyes for both us and our clients."

"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"It could have a 10,000-feet overview of the whole infrastructure because the software is easily installable on the whole infrastructure and not just the infrastructure, but also the workstation themselves. I would love to have a 360 view of the whole network and basically see from where a test is coming, and if there is an instance in the cloud that is actually misbehaving or if there is a workstation that is infected and stuff like that. It can also have some kind of AI to detect all those things and then cut off the connection from that machine. In Cortex, you can link the logs, reports, and all that stuff. You can also see the full picture of when it happened, and you can trace it back all the way to a file or something else. I would like to see similar functionality in Avast Business Endpoint Protection."
"It could download faster during deployment."
"Where I have faced a challenge is on the reporting. I would like to see something that provides information regarding the next month or quarter, in terms of reporting."
"It reduces network and bandwidth speed."
"The solution needs to be more secure and work to protect us better from people trying to mess with our systems."
"The accuracy of the scanner could be improved."
"Making the price a bit cheaper would be an improvement."
"It should have proper and timely updates to deal with new viruses as they come onto the market."
"Their EDR can have increased coverage for Macintosh. They do not fully secure Macintosh computers."
"One area for improvement in Huntress would be to allow for PSA integration from a specific IP address or hostname for better security measures."
"I would like the API to be a little better. They are getting there."
"The solution's UI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"Huntress' Process Insights feature could benefit from more robust search and filtering capabilities."
"I am anxiously watching to see how they evolve their MDR for Office 365. If anything, I would like more automated remediation capabilities in their MDR for Office 365."
"The Huntress is not a standalone solution. It really needs to be used with something else such as Microsoft Defender or another antivirus solution. It would be nice to see the product fleshed out by the Huntress team and include the antivirus solution part as well. I want it to be a full-fledged XDR product. It would push the tool to a higher price range but it would be nice to see the fleshed out features. I want them to integrate more features from the XDR realm."
"I'd like Huntress to implement a component that can analyze network traffic for specific sites."
