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.

    Overall, the experience has been great. I like the fast response when there is an incident. The most recent time from initial detection to remediation was 28 minutes for an incident we experienced. I wish there was better training available for me and my team.
