What it is, and why we rate it

One line each. Open a row for detail.

What it really isA modular endpoint, network and email security suite for businesses and MSPs, run from one agent and sold on a quote.
Our takeHeimdal's appeal is consolidation: DNS filtering, antivirus, patching, privileged access and email security from one vendor, with a managed SOC if you want it.
That breadth is real, but you cannot price it without handing over your phone number, and the trial runs through a consultant. Shortlist it if you are replacing several tools at once; skip it if you need a quick, self-serve answer on cost.
Why we rate itVery wide module coverage under one agent, including patching for Windows, macOS and Linux and an optional managed SOC.
The catchNo public prices, a contact form before any estimate, and a consultant-led trial.

Trade-offs

Friction report

Trade-offs to know before signing up.

  1. Time to value
    Days: trial setup goes through a consultant before you deploy the agent.
  2. Scale breakpoint
    Above 5,000 endpoints the calculator hands you to enterprise sales.
  3. Walled garden
    Medium: one proprietary agent and console across modules.
Still a fit?
If none of these block you, try it on the official site.
