Worth shortlisting if you're a mid-market or cloud-native company without 24/7 security staff . pricing is unusually transparent for MDR.

Read the full report

Pick Expel when

  • Mid-market teams with no 24/7 SOC
  • Cloud-native stacks on AWS, Azure, GCP
  • EDR users wanting managed response (e.g., Cortex XDR)
  • Buyers who want published pricing upfront

When Expel is not a fit

  • Tiny startups . MDR is overkill; get decent EDR
  • Solo devs or 2-person IT teams
  • Anyone needing a free tier or trial
  • In-house SOCs that only want tooling, not analysts
