Easy to setup, easy to maintain, easy to rollout.
Pros:
Easy to setup, easy to maintain, easy to rollout. it is how a top notch security product should be.
Cons:
Notifcations could be slightly better if i have to name one thing.
Alternatives Considered:
Great MDR product for MSPs
Comments: It is very well tuned to the MSP model. The Huntress team has built their product to play very nicely with a multi tenant IT management model. Everything can be partitioned granularly, and the integrations/rollout of the product are extremely easy.
Pros:
-The Huntress team reviews and classifies severity of alerts before they get to our team, which reduces our workload. They also include remediation plans and work with us if needed. -The rollout/integrations were very smooth and out clients didn't experience negative issues as a result of the rollout. -The pricing model works very well for the SMB market.
Cons:
It is not as advanced as other software like a SentinelOne or a Crowdstrike, but it can work well in tandem with them.

Huntress EDR - Easy setup to get started
Pros:
The community/culture of the Huntress team is great. Joining their weekly groups is great education on what is going on in today's world.
Cons:
I feel as if it is playing catchup or adding needed services JUST behind other competitors. I wish there was also a built in script for deployment rather than customized one.
Excellent Product, Excellent Support, Excellent Price
Pros:
Support is number 1 in my opinion, the team behind Huntress are second to none, always available and willing to help and know their stuff. The product is light on machines, has a great dashboard and alerting is wonderful.
Cons:
Would love for it to integrate with Defender for Business instead of just the free Windows Defender.
Alternatives Considered:
One of the best Security tools we use
Comments: Has shown its value with protecting customers in real-world events. We use it to help with remediation on customers that were not previously using it, makes cleanup and visibility easy.
Pros:
Huntress is very easy to use. The remediation details are great, and with the new auto remediation its even easier.
Cons:
There is nothing I don't like about Huntress.

Thanks so much for the comments! We appreciate your partnership and are glad to hear we play a key role in your security stack.
Huntress is an amazing product!
Comments: Adding this to our portfolio has been one of our best business decisions yet.
Pros:
I love everything about this product, from the ease of deployment to the alerting.
Cons:
I honestly have yet to find any faults in this product.
IT Service Provider
Comments: Positive experience overall. Support team has been friendly and service has assisted in remediation and prevention of cyber attacks.
Pros:
Having an extra set of eyes watching over our customer fleet from a security perspective is reassuring. Additional value add for our customers helping us bring security to the forefront of the conversation.
Cons:
Features under continuous development, so waiting for a specific feature to come into fruition requires patience (EDR).

Thanks for the review and feedback! If we can provide some extra reassurance and help you bring more meaningful security conversations to your clients, we're doing something right. EDR functionality is quickly approaching and we've got a packed roadmap this year to make sure we're delivering value in the places our partners need it most. Stay tuned for more :)
Huntress is in the "so cheap it costs money to not do it" camp.
Comments: They're great - they constantly give back to the community and try to make the entire channel better.
Pros:
Huntress does what it says on the label and it does it well. They're constantly innovating and attempting to push the envelope while remaining VERY GOOD on their core features. The persistence detection is amazing, and from what I've seen the Managed AV is very good!
Cons:
Not a lot really - they are NOT the only solution you need but they don't bill themselves as that.

Thank you for the positive feedback! We're trying to do even more in the security community this year, and we'll always stay transparent about where we're strong vs. where we're a good complement to other systems or services. Thanks for being a partner, Jason.
Immediate impact, ongoing ease of mind
Comments: Huntress keeps an eye on all of our computers and immediately notifies if an unusual process is set to run automatically. It has found numerous huge potential security problems, and countless little problems (things like adware and junk browsers).
Pros:
Implementation was easy by deploying the agent via our RMM. It immediately found a few major security issues, the support team even helped me confirm the risk.
Cons:
Initially, there was a problem with how the agents were split into organizations, but this issue has since been resolved.

Secure Machines
Pros:
Managing Windows Defender via Huntress is my favorite part of this software
Cons:
Documentation might be more improved or maybe starting a Huntress University would help partners to understand better their product

Thanks for the feedback, Mert! Great to hear you're having a good experience with Managed Antivirus. We'll share your feedback on documentation + enablement with the team too, we're always looking to improve and help our partners understand the platform to make sure they're getting as much value as they can from us.
Huntress the foothold hunters!
Pros:
Deployment and management is a breeze. Client is light weight, non-obtrusive. Detects footholds, malware, etc. that other AV misses.
Cons:
Don't have any cons for the product. It performs as expected and the Huntress team is constantly adding features which is great!

I couldn't do my job without it
Comments: Outstanding! A+++ I simply couldn't do my job without Huntress. I rely on daily and is almost always opened and in use.
Pros:
Easy, simply to understand and navigate GUI. Highly intuitive and responsive agent with real-time reporting and next level support when you need it most.
Cons:
Lack of merch. The only real problem I have with Huntress is the fact I can't display my support and use of the application in the real world. That's how good it is.
Must have for MSP's
Comments: Great.
Pros:
Super easy to deploy and use. Support has been fantastic.
Cons:
So far no complaints besides for maybe only being limited to Windows devices.

Huntress just works!
Comments: Great product to allow me to replace an existing solution. Cost was a bit higher but the features were well worth making the change.

Cons:
I had no issues deploying or using the software
