Criteria

Todyl

SASE, EDR, SIEM, MXDR, SOAR, and GRC in a single agent with a dedicated DRAM per customer. Built for MSPs willing to commit to one vendor in exchange for eliminating tool sprawl. Trade-off: total platform lock-in and minimal independent validation.

Truesec

Premier Nordic MDR with the largest Scandinavian SOC and deep IR background (120,000+ hours, vendor-stated). Unique MDR Black tier covers IR costs for breaches on monitored devices. Strong fit for Nordic enterprises wanting local expertise. Limited US presence and zero independent reviews make it hard to evaluate for North American buyers.

Summary

Very limited public reviews. Software Finder 4.9/5 (14 reviews). No G2 reviews. No Capterra reviews. PeerSpot has not collected reviews. MSP press is positive about tool consolidation. The biggest concern: almost no independent buyer validation exists.

Effectively unrateable. No public reviews on G2, PeerSpot, or Gartner Peer Insights. Not in Forrester Wave or Gartner MQ for MDR. No Reddit mentions on r/msp or r/cybersecurity. Strong Nordic reputation based on vendor claims and partner references (EY, Microsoft MISA), but impossible to validate through independent peer feedback.

Todyl vs Truesec: Which Should You Choose?

Choose Todyl if:

•MSPs wanting to consolidate EDR, SASE, SIEM, MDR, and GRC into one platform with multi-tenant management
•SMBs with lean security teams wanting a dedicated security contact (DRAM) at an accessible price point
•Greenfield deployments with no existing EDR/SIEM/SASE investments to preserve

Choose Truesec if:

•Companies wanting IR costs covered for breaches on monitored devices (MDR Black tier) — unique offering in market
•Mid-market organizations wanting 72-hour rapid onboarding (MDR Core) vs. typical 2-4 week industry average
•Critical infrastructure organizations needing OT/ICS MDR via Nozomi Networks partnership (announced Nov 2025)

Bottom line: Todyl is the choice if you want a single-vendor stack with deep integration. Truesec is better if you have existing tools and want flexibility.

Todyl pricing: Starting at $250/month (platform base). Per-tier and per-module pricing not published.. Truesec pricing: Custom-quoted pricing. Watch for with Todyl: Platform-native lock-in -- must adopt full Todyl stack, cannot BYO EDR/SIEM/SASE; $250/month starting price is the base -- unclear what modules are included at that tier. Watch for with Truesec: No public pricing for any tier — requires sales engagement to get any estimate; IR is a separate retainer on Core and Enterprise tiers — only Black includes it.

Should I choose Todyl or Truesec?

Choose Todyl if: mSPs wanting to consolidate EDR, SASE, SIEM, MDR, and GRC into one platform with multi-tenant management. Choose Truesec if: nordic enterprises (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland) wanting the largest regional SOC with local language support (Swedish, Danish, Finnish, German, English). Todyl is not ideal for organizations with existing EDR/SIEM/SASE investments -- requires full Todyl stack adoption.
