Huntress Managed Endpoint Detection and Response Awarded CRN’s 2025 Product of the Year

Recognized for delivering enterprise-grade protection to ALL businesses without the operational burden and high cost of traditional EDR solutions

Columbia, MD - December 1, 2025 — Huntress announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has recognized Huntress Managed Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) as the winner in the 2025 Products of the Year Awards in the Endpoint Protection/Extended Detection and Response category. 

EDR is one of the most powerful tools in an organization’s cybersecurity arsenal, but the big-name EDR vendors designed their products for large enterprises with well-resourced security teams, making them overcomplicated, overwhelming, and overpriced for most businesses. Other managed EDR solutions try to address this, but often fall short, leaving organizations drowning in alerts, false positives, and watching their budgets burn. 

Huntress Managed EDR addresses this gap with an accessible, easy-to-deploy solution at a predictable price with no hidden costs. Protecting more than four million endpoints across Windows, macOS, and Linux environments, Huntress Managed EDR gives organizations comprehensive, enterprise-grade protection with an 8-minute mean time to respond and a false positive rate of less than 1%. Backed by a 24/7 AI-assisted Security Operations Center (SOC) and a team of world-class threat hunters, Huntress is a complete solution that handles everything from management and monitoring to identifying and stopping threats like ransomware, malware, and credential theft. This platform-based approach maximizes value and frees up teams to focus on their biggest priorities.

“Every business, regardless of size, deserves a real shot at fighting back against hackers, because security is a necessity, not a luxury reserved for the 1%,” said Matthiew Morin, Director of Product Management. “That’s why we created Managed EDR to make enterprise-grade protection accessible to all. By taking on the operational burden, being hyper-focused on hacker tradecraft, providing 24/7 expert monitoring, and cutting through the noise of false positives, we ensure organizations can focus on what matters most: staying secure and running their business with confidence.”

Three key ways Huntress Managed EDR wrecks hackers:

• Purpose-built technology: Huntress designs, builds, and manages its technology in-house, freeing the company from the development pace of other vendors. This proprietary technology lets Huntress innovate faster, respond quicker, and focus on what’s most important to protect customers against the latest hacker tradecraft.
• World-renowned threat expertise: The solution is backed by a global team of threat experts who consistently act as leaders and first responders during major global security incidents, like SlashAndGrab and Cleo. Huntress distills these world-class, real-time insights directly into the Managed EDR, ensuring customers are protected from emerging threats before others often even know they exist.
• Hunting for threats around the clock: Most teams can’t afford a 24/7 SOC to continuously monitor their endpoints for hacker activity and prioritize and respond to potential threats. Huntress makes this possible for organizations of all sizes by integrating its tech, expert human oversight, and 24/7 AI-assisted SOC and threat hunters. These expert hunters relentlessly track down attackers' every move and execute swift response actions, ensuring focused protection without adding to your workload or distracting your team with false positives.

“The 2025 CRN Products of the Year Award winners represent a bold class of innovators dedicated to delivering standout products and features that drive real results for channel partners and their customers,” said Jennifer Follett, Vice President, U.S. Content, Executive Editor, CRN, The Channel Company. “These honorees were chosen by solution providers who work with the products daily—making their insight a powerful guide for partners seeking to strengthen their portfolios. We applaud each winner and eagerly anticipate the continued innovation they’ll bring to the industry.”
