Guardz Reviews & Product Details

The consolidation of multiple security layers in a single platform and dashboard, gives our engineers better visibility of threats, how the layers are interlinked and ability to see the pattern of security events.

This is a much more difficult job for them when they are using multiple point security products and different management platforms.

Price point is also a positive factor as we are not paying for multiple products.

Deployment and integration is quick with support for O365 and Google and is easy to use with a very intuitive dashboard that doesn't take long for the engineers to get up to speed.

With clients now expecting more for their Cyber Security expense, round the clock monitoring is a requirement. Using Guardz Ultimate MDR capability means we don't need to pay for expensive out of hours cover but can still offer MDR Services to our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Whilst Guardz has some great partnerships with leading technologies like email security and Endpoint Detection & response, you might not get a greater depth of features and functions for each of the security layers, that you might get if you had them as point products.

Its a compromise for a better price point and best value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like how everything is organized in one place, making it easy to view and manage all aspects directly from the dashboard. The way it integrates with other platforms for ticket management is also very effective. Whenever I reach out for help, the support team is consistently helpful and friendly. When I submit a ticket, the automation feature often speeds up the process, and even if automation isn't possible, they always provide clear instructions on how to resolve the issue.

Since everything is integrated, there are certain limitations if the client does not use M365 or G-Suite. You cannot enable or disable some features individually. For example, if you want to install antivirus and the client does not use one of the supported business tenants, you are unable to deploy antivirus, dark web monitoring, or any other related features.

I use Guardz primarily to help protect our cloud environments and digital assets by identifying vulnerabilities, monitoring threats, and improving our overall cybersecurity posture. It supports both operational security and client-facing engagements by giving us better visibility into risks, helping prioritize urgent matters, and ensuring our cloud deployments stay secure and compliant. I like how Guardz makes cybersecurity feel more manageable and structured, even when dealing with multiple environments. I really enjoy how it helps with consistency and coordination, working especially well when multiple teams are involved, providing a common view of what's happening, and giving quick updates without long back-and-forth emails. It feels less complex than many enterprise security tools, which makes adoption easier and speeds up execution. The initial setup was quite smooth and straightforward, and we were able to start getting visibility fairly quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A few things in Guardz could be improved, especially from my role in cloud & cybersecurity. Some areas feel less customizable, especially when different teams want different reporting. Reporting could be more flexible for leadership and client-ready summaries. Integration depth can be improved - connecting smoothly with all existing security tools isn't always seamless. Occasional alert noise - sometimes it takes effort to filter what's truly urgent versus information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a single-pane console for managing most basic security needs for an MSP client that I can buy a single license at a time, month-to-month, no minimums, no contract. It includes S1 for endpoint, Avanan for email, ITDR, dark web monitoring, security awareness training, phishing simulation, web browser defense, and cloud data monitoring. Setup is easy and support is excellent. The S1 and Avanan integrations in their Ultimate tier are very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a newer product and not all parts are as well developed as others. The ITDR, for instance, feels very basic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Guardz for security purposes, and it is incredibly efficient at displaying all kinds of security alerts, risks, and system statuses in one place, which really saves time by reducing the need to jump between tools. I particularly appreciate the smooth functionality for incident response—when an issue is detected, Guardz provides guided remediation steps that make it easy to act quickly. What I like the most is that it feels efficient and reassuring, delivering strong security coverage while staying easy to operate on a daily basis. Since email is still the most common attack, having real-time phishing detection and clear alerts with Guardz makes a huge difference. The initial setup was quite easy, and overall, this tool saves my work and organization from threats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is hard to say, this tool has been saving us from threat and its a great option any organisation would choose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Guardz easy to use for deployment, and I think their prospecting is great. The use of industry-leading software solutions reassures us and adds credibility with our clients. I appreciate the built-in prospecting feature that allows us to benchmark and scan clients. I love the categorization of alerts, especially for email security and EDR with Sentinel One. The onboarding experience was great, and it is scaling well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The awareness training was an improvement area for us, but they listened and really improved on this, now we have new videos for our end users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of Guardz is the integration with SentinelOne MDR, which offers 24/7 monitoring and rapid response at a very competitive cost. It delivers enterprise-grade protection at a fraction of the price of traditional EDR solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main limitation is the lack of native support for Linux-based endpoints, which restricts full coverage in mixed environments. Additionally, some advanced configuration options are less customizable compared to enterprise-grade EDR solutions. Expanding platform support and offering deeper policy controls would strengthen the overall product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When deploying Guardz, across SMB clients, Guardz nails the SMB sweet spot. Implementation is genuinely quick and simple. The console gives a clean presentation to clients, and I don’t have to spend days tuning before I can show value. For customers who are early in their security journey, it’s easy to explain what’s happening and why.

I also like that Guardz bundles the essential protections into one place, which keeps vendor sprawl and context-switching down as well as keeping costs low enough for an SMB. It gives my team meaningful coverage without adding operational drag, so we can focus on coaching clients and periodic health checks instead of babysitting yet another tool.

Customer Support tends to be a pain point with a lot of tool vendors; I can honestly say that they have gone above and beyond from a customer support perspective. I have been very happy with that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Notifications and integrations are the main friction points. Alerts often get bulked into a single email, which makes ticketing less granular than I’d like, and there is no public API or many native ticketing integrations to smooth that out. We work around it with email-to-ticket parsing, but first-class API/webhook support and more integrations would make operations and reporting cleaner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Guardz is how it’s built specifically for small businesses—it makes cybersecurity management straightforward and accessible. I appreciate how easy it is to get started, the clear dashboards, and the automatic monitoring features. It really helps me feel more confident about catching risks early without needing a dedicated IT security staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like least about Guardz is that, while the platform is maturing and making strides for small businesses, the training resources could be improved. As Guardz continues to grow, I’d appreciate more in-depth, tailored training materials and onboarding support that address the specific challenges small businesses face. Enhanced guides, tutorials, and real-world examples would make it easier for my team to fully leverage the platform’s capabilities as we scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it ties so many different tools together, and adds in SentinelOne. It is by far the easiest tool to implement \ integrate I have ever used! Kudos for an painless onboarding process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Support has become slower to respond, I hope this is due to rapid growth and not a trend. Support questions used to be resolved within a day are now taking 3-4 days to resolve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
