How Alternatives Are Selected

1. Sophos Managed Detection and Response Services

4.8

We transitioned a few years ago from a classic Antivirus Solution without a SOC or MDR on top to Sophos Intercept X combined with the MDR Service, following a major security incident in the company. Since then, the MDR has been a great relief for our internal team, ensuring that threats are detected and responded to immediately and outside of business hours. It has considerably improved our security posture, reduced response time and provides us with quick and helpful guidance during investigations. We have much more ease of mind and ability to contain cyberattacks, while our IT staff can stay focused on core tasks. One more thing is the easy and straight forward setup and integration of the MDR service on one side, but also, on the other hand, the possibility of threat hunting through complex queries in our central on our own.Read all insights and reviews for Sophos Managed Detection and Response Services

2. Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response Services

By Arctic Wolf Networks

4.9

We use Arctic Wolf SOC for a single-site organization (~450 employees) with M365/Defender, Firewall, VPN, AD/Azure AD and some minor local systems as core telemetry sources. Our primary goal was clear: 24/7 monitoring and response support, while enabling our internal team to focus an the truly relevant work. Overall, the experience has been very positive. The pre-sales process was straightforward, honest and set realistic expectations. The onboarding/transition was professional and security-first. The Concierge team sonsistently prioritized "what needs to be done to make the environment safer" over contract wording or pre-sales promises, wich built a lot of trust. Value started immediately after implementation - triage quality reduced noise significantly compared to what we handled internally before, and suspicious/likely true-positive events were handled in a structured and supportive way. Communication and availability are strong. Escalations are clear and the team is easy to reach when it matters. Regular sessions with the Concierge team cover reviews, roadmap topics and improvement opportunities, so it feels like an ongoing partnership rather than a pure ticket-based service. The main area for improvement is the ongoing transition to the new dashboard platform. As with many major platform migrations, some capabilities feel temporarily reduced compared to the previous experience. That said, the development pace is good and missing functionality is being addressed progressively. Also it feels like our opinions and change requests get evaluated.Read all insights and reviews for Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response Services

4.6

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. Read all insights and reviews for Expel Managed Detection and Response Services
