Dislike

I don't think that dislike is appropriate for this review. There is nothing that I dislike about Expel's service. My only nit is that they push us to use their workbench, when we have our own Enterprise tools for tracking and investigating IR Cases. That being said, their workbench is great, and would be ideal if we did not already have our own tools. We use their workbench to enrich our own tools with their investigative data.

    Expel Effectively Covers Second Shift and Weekends Security Operations

    3.0
    Sep 18, 2025
    Expel does an excellent job covering our SOC when our Analysts are not working, which is the 2nd shift and weekends. They take our customization and feature requests seriously, and respond within a timely manner. Importantly, their answer is not always "yes". Sometimes they so "no" and that is OK. They know what they are capable of, and give reasonable pushback when our requests are outside of what they can offer.
