Huntress pricing: what MSPs actually pay in 2026

If you're evaluating managed security platforms for your MSP clients, Huntress pricing is refreshingly straightforward. Pricing is flat: no tiers, no feature-gating, and no surprise add-ons. You pay for what you use: endpoints, identities, learners, and data sources.

This breakdown covers the four products MSPs actually deploy, real cost examples at different scales, what MSPs say about the value, and how Huntress stacks against the DIY alternative (hiring your own SOC).

What Huntress is (and who it's for)

Huntress is a managed detection and response (MDR) platform built for MSPs and enterprises. It handles four security domains: endpoint protection (Managed EDR), identity threat detection (Managed ITDR), log aggregation and compliance (Managed SIEM), and user security training (Managed SAT). Everything runs under a 24/7 human-led, AI-assisted security operations center.

The pitch to MSPs is clear: stop hiring SOC staff and let Huntress be your security team. One per-unit price, full transparency, no surprises. That's a different playbook than the traditional "call for pricing" enterprise security vendors.

Huntress pricing breakdown

All prices are monthly, US Dollar, billed per unit. MSPs get volume discounts at 50, 100, 250, 500, and 1000+ unit tiers. These are the published rates:

Real MSP costs at common scales:

• 50 endpoints (small MSP): EDR only = $449.50/month ($5,394/year). EDR + ITDR (same 50 identities) = $689.50/month.
• 250 endpoints (mid-market MSP): EDR + ITDR + SIEM (250 sources) = $3,247.50/month ($38,970/year). Add SAT (250 learners) = $3,769.50/month.
• 500 endpoints (larger MSP): EDR + ITDR + SIEM = $6,495/month ($77,940/year). Pricing typically improves at this scale via partner discounts.

Key pricing details MSPs need to know

No separate SOC fee. The 24/7 human-led security operations center is included in the per-unit price. Competitors often charge extra for "managed" response or escalate threats to a separate team at higher tiers. Huntress doesn't. Your threat gets to a human analyst immediately.

Volume-based discounts per tier. At 50-99 units you pay full price. Jump to 100-249 and the per-unit cost drops. At 1000+ units, enterprise discounts kick in. You can increase your commitment mid-term to access a lower tier, and doing so restarts your 12-month contract from the new date.

No setup or onboarding fees. You deploy the Huntress agent and console in under an hour with standard IT admin permissions. Most MSPs don't need Huntress's professional services team, though they're available if you need help integrating with your PSA or RMM.

Contract structure for MSPs. Standard term is 12 months. You bill monthly in arrears based on deployed usage. If you commit to 250 endpoints and actually deploy 275, you're billed for 275. Overages aren't auto-billed; they're processed manually.

Free trial included. Huntress offers a fully featured free trial with the exact same 24/7 SOC support as paid customers. No credit card required. Most MSPs run a 30-day proof of concept to test the platform and see the value before committing.

What's included at each tier

Managed EDR: $8.99/endpoint

24/7 endpoint threat detection and response, powered by 5M+ endpoints under management. The product includes:

• Active threat hunting and behavioral detection (no signature-only approach).
• Managed antivirus (free, included).
• Custom incident reporting with clear remediation steps.
• Industry-leading MTTR (mean time to remediation). Huntress claims a sub-1% false positive rate, so your team actually investigates real threats, not noise.

MSPs mention in reviews that Huntress catches "persistent footholds that antivirus misses" — the exact job EDR is supposed to do. At $8.99/endpoint, you're paying for a SOC analyst's time, not just log forwarding.

Managed ITDR: $4.80/identity

Identity Threat Detection and Response for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. Covers account takeovers, business email compromise, privilege escalation, and suspicious policy changes. Huntress protects 12M+ identities globally.

Features:

• 24/7 monitoring for suspicious login patterns, MFA bypasses, and unauthorized changes.
• Automated remediation (revoke sessions, disable accounts, reset passwords).
• Custom incident reporting focused on identity-specific risks.
• Industry-leading 3-minute MTTR for identity threats.

This is the complement to EDR. Endpoints are one attack vector; identities are another. Most MSPs bundle EDR + ITDR to cover both.

Managed SIEM: $4.00/source

Huntress Managed SIEM aggregates logs from your entire environment (servers, firewalls, cloud services, etc.) with smart filtering to cut noise. "Source" means a log input: one firewall, one server, one cloud application.

• Pre-built filters that flag security events and drop routine noise (successful logins, routine log rotations, etc.).
• Pooled storage — you get an allocation of log retention shared across all sources, no per-source overages.
• Compliance reporting (SOC 2, CMMC, HIPAA) built in.
• Threat correlation across data sources (SIEM's actual job).

Pro tip: SIEM is optional. Many MSPs start with EDR + ITDR, then add SIEM when compliance or log retention becomes a requirement.

Managed SAT: $2.08/learner

Security Awareness Training delivered by Emmy-award-winning animators. Includes phishing simulations, role-based training paths, and automated reporting.

• Customizable training content (Huntress's library covers ransomware, phishing, business email compromise, credential hygiene).
• Phishing simulations with real-time reporting on who clicks.
• Engagement tracking so you can show compliance auditors your training program actually works.
• 98% completion rate for users who start assignments (because the content is actually good).

How Huntress compares to doing security yourself

DIY SOC (hire staff): A dedicated SOC analyst costs $80-120k/year plus benefits, overhead, and ramp-up time. Most small to mid-market MSPs can't justify a hire. So security gets done in between other tickets, or it doesn't happen. Alert fatigue kills responses. Response times stretch to hours or days.

Huntress: 24/7 coverage included in the per-endpoint price. An MSP with 250 endpoints pays $2,247/month for EDR + ITDR. That's $27k/year for a dedicated security team that works around the clock. Most MSPs see ROI within weeks — one threat caught and remediated pays for months of service.

The math is obvious for the average MSP. The strategic upside is different: Huntress lets you actually deliver managed security as a service without building a SOC in-house.

What MSPs actually say about Huntress

From G2 reviews and community feedback:

"I sleep better when my clients are being protected with Huntress. Huntress helps us by looking for persistent footholds in a network that antivirus just doesn't catch. We're getting a lot of the benefits of a bigger EDR platform for an extremely reasonable price." — Dylan Sauce, Innovative Communication Systems

"During the trial process, we made enough money to pay for Huntress for three months in the first two days. We've worked closely with a lot of the different teams from Huntress, and everybody's awesome." — Keenan Cline, Lightbulb Networks

"The value that we get with Huntress far exceeds what we're getting with SentinelOne. Huntress has allowed us to deliver a solution that is monitoring 24/7 from an EDR perspective, while also adding that critical SOC component." — Andy Warner, Connecting Point

Rating: 4.8/5 on G2 (1000+ reviews).

Common themes: MSPs trust the platform because it catches real threats, the SOC is actually responsive (5-minute callback commitments, 99% CSAT), and the pricing makes sense compared to building security in-house.

How the Huntress SOC actually works

This is where MSPs say the platform earns its cost. When a threat is detected:

1. Detection (seconds). Behavioral analytics flag anomalous activity at the endpoint or identity level.
2. SOC triage (minutes). A human analyst validates the alert. Is this a real threat or noise?
3. Remediation staged (5-15 minutes MTTR). If real, the SOC isolates the threat, revokes sessions, disables accounts, blocks C2 traffic — whatever the threat requires.
4. MSP notified. Clear incident report with context and next steps. Your team knows exactly what happened and what was done.

This is the opposite of legacy EDR tools that fire alerts and expect your team to figure it out. Huntress includes the team.

MSP partner program

Huntress has structured pricing for MSPs (different from direct customer pricing). Partner benefits include:

• Co-marketing: Huntress provides sales materials, case studies, and co-branded resources.
• Free NFR (non-revenue-bearing) licenses via the Neighborhood Watch program. Test Huntress internally on your own environment before pitching to clients.
• Dedicated partner support: Faster response times, partner success manager.

To get partner pricing or NFR licenses, request them directly from Huntress.

Pricing FAQs

Q: Can I lock in pricing for multi-year terms? No. Standard terms are 12 months. If price protection is critical, your account team can explore options based on business justification.

Q: Do you offer monthly contracts? Yes. Monthly billing is available for direct customers, though MSPs typically prefer annual to match client contracts.

Q: What if my endpoint count fluctuates? Monthly overages are billed at the per-unit rate. You can increase your minimum commitment mid-term to access a lower tier.

Q: How is Huntress priced vs SentinelOne or CrowdStrike? Huntress includes 24/7 SOC in the per-unit price. Most competitors charge separately for managed response. For MSPs, Huntress is often cheaper at comparable feature sets because you're not paying a second bill for the SOC.

The takeaway

Huntress pricing is transparent and per-unit. No surprise tiers. No feature-gating at higher price points. The 24/7 SOC is included, not an add-on.

For MSPs, the math is simple: Huntress costs less than hiring security staff and delivers better response times. Most MSPs run EDR + ITDR at minimum (cost: $13.79 per endpoint + identity per month). Larger deployments bundle in SIEM and SAT to round out the security program.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the minimum contract for Huntress?

Huntress requires a minimum of 50 endpoints/identities/sources to start. MSPs can increase commitments mid-term to access lower per-unit pricing, and you can choose monthly or annual billing. There's no setup or onboarding fee — deployment typically takes under an hour.

Does Huntress price include the 24/7 SOC?

Yes. The per-endpoint, per-identity, and per-learner prices include 24/7 human-led SOC monitoring, threat detection, and remediation at no extra cost. Unlike some competitors, there's no separate fee to unlock response capabilities.

Can I combine multiple Huntress products at a discount?

Huntress doesn't publish bundle discounts, but MSPs typically run EDR + ITDR together to cover endpoint and identity threats. For a 250-endpoint environment with 250 identities, that's roughly $3,247/month combined. Partner pricing is available through Huntress's MSP program.

What happens if my endpoint count grows mid-contract?

Overages above your committed minimum are billed monthly at the per-unit rate. You can increase your minimum commitment mid-term to lock in a lower rate tier. There's no penalty for adding endpoints as you grow.

How does Huntress compare to traditional SOC services?

A dedicated SOC hire runs $120k+/year plus overhead. Huntress Managed EDR for 250 endpoints costs roughly $2,247/month ($27k/year) and includes threat hunting, 24/7 monitoring, and expert remediation. Most MSPs see ROI within weeks of deployment.
