Guardz serves as a central hub for several security tools, which removes the need to log into separate portals. It is quick and easy to link a customers tenant to Guardz. The Guardz portal offers easy to understand reporting and sends informative email notifications when issues need to be addressed. The AI chatbot often has answers for most questions or problems, and you can also prompt it to generate a ticket if you need help from a human technician. In my experience, the Guardz support team is responsive and knowledgeable, although they sometimes need to escalate issues to third parties.

Guardz provides a single platform to integrate most of what an MSP needs to secure a client with AI-integrated SOC backing. SentinelOne, Avanan, security awareness training, ITDR, and phishing simulations all under a single platform with a low per-user pricing with month-to-month commitments is very hard to find in the security space.

We are over two years into our Guardz journey. We started with just a couple of customers but quickly expanded this into all our clients. The fact that we have this in our stack has won clients for us on multiple occasions. There is no such thing as a perfect platform and Guardz has evolved to understand what they are good at and what is best as an integrated component. SentinelOne and Avanan as fully embedded products with Guardz own engine protecting the 365 space is an excellent combination. Alert fatigue is minimised, their own MDR team are exceptional and the partnership feels personal. If you are an MSP and you don’t have a robust security stack, you are (in my opinion) failing your customers. There are other products out there and I would advise anyone to review the market, but Guardz, for us, is a great fit.
