Guardz Endpoint Security

Endpoint security is the segment everyone competes in, and that is the problem. SMB MSPs end up choosing between Huntress (deep human SOC, but Windows Defender as the actual endpoint agent — which means Microsoft 365 Business Premium per seat for full EDR value) or building a Microsoft Defender for Business stack that is fine at AV but light on response. Guardz Endpoint Security takes a different position: managed AV on every paid plan, and SentinelOne Complete EDR embedded directly in the Ultimate tier with no hidden Microsoft licence dependency.

The managed AV layer covers Windows and macOS with device-posture checks, configuration drift detection and real-time alerts. The Ultimate plan ships SentinelOne Complete for forensic investigation, behavioural detection and full incident response — wrapped by Guardz's 24/7 AI plus human-led MDR team. If a process anomaly fires at 03:00 AEST, the response runs automatically and the MSP wakes up to a closed incident rather than a triage queue.

For Australian MSPs evaluating Huntress + Microsoft 365 Business Premium per seat versus a single Guardz Ultimate line, the total-cost picture usually lands in favour of Guardz once you count the M365 BP licence as part of the Huntress cost. For MSPs running Microsoft Defender for Business and wishing they had real MDR on top, Guardz Ultimate is the upgrade path without changing the underlying AV engine on every seat.
