The application control system could benefit from improvements in identifying and managing both whitelisted and blacklisted applications. Additionally, it would be valuable to have the ability to automatically lock down applications identified as potential threats.

We need an API to automatically retrieve metrics and data about backend activity so we can generate client reports. We believe in comprehensive reporting and actively inform our clients about our efforts. Our daily, weekly, and monthly activity reports demonstrate our proactive approach. Currently, Huntress lacks an API to pull this data, hindering our ability to efficiently convey what happened in the past week, month, or quarter, and how it was addressed. An API solution would streamline reporting and enhance client transparency. In addition, we require an external recon report generation system. Ideally, we should be able to select a client and instantly generate a report with a single click. I expressed this need to one of Huntress' developers, emphasizing the importance of user-friendly report access. Such a system would significantly improve our workflow and communication with clients.

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.
Some of Huntress' reporting could be improved. Specifically, when we get a notification that something has been investigated and found benign, we don't get any information about which devices the issue was on. It's not until we get an actual action plan for a threat above a certain threshold or representing a certain compromise that we know exactly what device is involved. In the next release, Huntress should include better integration with AV or endpoint detection and other response solutions than Windows Defender.

The solution's UI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement.

In the next release, I'd like to see more intuitive dashboards.
