- Zscaler Managed Detection & Response
Best for: Teams with a major EDR that want experts on top
Zscaler MDR is on the list because it adds experts on top of the EDR, cloud and identity products you already run, without asking you to switch. That suits teams of any size that have a major EDR in place but no one to watch it around the clock. Set up the no-code playbooks with care, because they decide which responses run on their own and which wait for your approval.

- Sophos MDR
Best for: Teams without a SOC that run mixed security products
Sophos MDR makes the list because it works on top of the products you already own, and incident response comes with no hourly caps. That suits companies of any size without their own SOC, especially if you would rather not replace your endpoint product. Ask which response mode you are buying, because the option you pick decides how much the analysts do on their own.
