What differentiates ThreatLocker from other similar products?

As an MSP, Threatlocker allows us to customize the application whitelisting for different industries and use cases with ease. With other products we aren't able to easily implement the security controls that we need to keep our clients safe in the same way that Threatlocker allows us to do.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Threatlocker is a joy to work with. The customer service team is fantastic. We have regular reviews of our clients deployments with Colin and he is great. Threatlocker's company philosophy lines up with ours.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Sometimes the administration portal can be a bit finicky. However, they are updating the portal which should help things in the future. Requests from clients can be a bit tedious sometimes to allow. If you don't respond to a Threatlocker request quickly it can make a client unhappy if they are waiting for you to open an application or install an update.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

You need to make sure that you have a dedicated person who can respond to requests otherwise they may stay open for too long. Make your client aware that you are implementing these security controls, because if they are going from having local admin to being locked down in Threatlocker it can be a pain point. Make sure you have a machine in learning mode for an adequate amount of time, otherwise there could be applications that haven't been added to policy if they haven't been opened.

What differentiates ThreatLocker from other similar products?

There are other application whitelisting vendors, but what truly separates Threatlocker is the support they provide - it's truly top notch.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Besides all the additional security the platform provides, the unified audit is fantastic. I'm constantly using it to discover which user is responsible for accidentally moving or deleting files and/or folders from a server share.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Periodically you'll have a case where an operating system file may get blocked, but support always acts quickly to resolve the issue on the back end. Additionally, it will require some babysitting for sure, especially if your environment consists of applications that aren't part of their "Built-in" library. That means you will periodically have to manually catalog files associated with the application as it changes over time..

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Trial it! See if it makes sense in your environment. I'm so glad I have it on all my customers machines. Helps me sleep better at night.
