Huntress Managed Detection and Response review
Endpoint-focused MDR with 24/7 SOC response, hunting, remediation, and automation.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Huntress Managed Detection and Response combines endpoint detection and response with a 24/7 SOC. The service monitors business endpoints, investigates suspicious activity, and coordinates containment and remediation, with threat hunting, custom incident reporting, and managed Microsoft Defender Antivirus included in its feature set. It is aimed at internal IT teams, managed service providers, and security teams that want ongoing endpoint monitoring without limiting the service to alert delivery.
Published pricing shows a Managed EDR plan at $7.99 per endpoint per month, billed monthly, with 24/7 threat detection and response, active remediation, custom incident reporting, free managed Antivirus, and SOC-managed EDR technology. A second Managed EDR listing shows $8.99 per endpoint per month with 24/7 SOC monitoring, investigation, response, containment, remediation, and a standard 12-month term. Pricing is volume-based and shown as examples; direct customers may have a 50-seat minimum, while MSP purchasing has no Huntress-required minimum seat count.
Its ecosystem fit is a notable strength for teams that need security operations connected to existing workflows. Huntress supports web, Windows, macOS, Linux, and API access, with integrations including Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, ConnectWise Manage, Autotask, Syncro, NinjaOne, Datto RMM, ServiceNow, Slack, and Okta. API and webhook automation can connect alerts with ticketing, RMM, ITSM, and SIEM processes. Organizations seeking endpoint-focused MDR, coordinated response, and broad operational integrations should consider it; teams needing verified coverage beyond endpoints should look for a broader security service.
