BlueVoyant MDR
Works with your toolsIntegrates with your existing security tools via APIs. You keep your current EDR, SIEM, and cloud tools.Technology-agnostic MDR with deep Microsoft specialization, operating inside the customer's own Sentinel or Splunk instance without deploying a proprietary agent. Founded in 2017 by the former COO of Morgan Stanley, BlueVoyant manages 500+ Microsoft Sentinel deployments and won Microsoft Worldwide Security Partner of the Year 2024.

Best For
Ideal for
- Mid-market and enterprise organizations already invested in Microsoft Sentinel and Defender wanting MDR without a proprietary agent
- Organizations that want all detection rules, playbooks, and data to stay in their own SIEM instance
- Splunk Enterprise or Splunk Cloud customers needing managed detection and response
Not ideal for
- Organizations needing broad multi-vendor integration support. BlueVoyant supports four EDR platforms and two SIEMs, far fewer than competitors like Expel or eSentire
- Buyers who need OT/ICS coverage or extensive network detection beyond SIEM log ingestion
- Teams that rely on community reviews and practitioner validation before purchasing. Very few public reviews exist

The Team
Reputation

Common complaints
- Narrow integration breadth compared to competitors like eSentire (300+ integrations). Heavily Microsoft-centric
- Executive summary and board-level reporting flagged as needing improvement in Gartner reviews

Reddit (r/sysadmin, r/msp)
