Overall ThreatLocker has been a fantastic addition to our stack. Several MSPs warned me about the complexity of implementing TL properly, they were wrong. With the help of the Cyber Heros teams we've deployed it to over 2000 endpoints without any significant issues.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The depth of features, especially the elevation and storage control, and the rapid and detailed response from the SOC team.

#### Cons

I wish I could purchase it via Pax8 to help with license reconciliation

#### Reasons for choosing ThreatLocker

The Elevation features in TL we a must from my Managed Services team

#### Reasons for switching to ThreatLocker

We wanted to implement a SOC for our clients, and I wanted to work with a company who was accessible in our industry.

Our overall experience has been excellent. We use ThreatLocker on all of our servers and as many user endpoints as we can. It stops users in their tracks from installing random software or extensions that we do not approve of in our organization.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

[sensitive content hidden] on of the solutions engineers is super knowledgeable. He know his way around ThreatLocker like it was the back of his hand. I like how comprehensive it is and how much tweaking can be done for apps and other settings. ThreatLocker definitely helps me sleep better at night.

#### Cons

It is so comprehensive that it is a world unto itself, which means that it takes some learning to be able to make use of the tweaking.

#### Reasons for choosing ThreatLocker

Pricing, reputation, and the features were the two biggest reasons we chose ThreatLocker.

### Awesome software with awesome support

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Nathan V.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Information Technology and Services
- Company size: 2-10 employees

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

As an MSP, ThreatLocker is a major tool in our security stack. I have used\tested a lot of security services in the past, but ThreatLocker is the best for the money I have found. It gives us a large amount of insight and control over devices which makes it hard to pick a favorite part about ThreatLocker. The product is awesome, but I really want to say my favorite part is the people behind it. You are assigned a Solutions Engineer to help guide you through the process of deployment/configuration. They are an amazing resource that I have never gotten with any other product. Usually, software companies just drop you into the portal, show you a few things, then you never hear from them again. Additionally, the support experience is the best I have ever seen with any software company. They are very knowledgeable, quick (under 5 minutes), and always available via chat. The MDR team also helps us have peace of mind that our devices are safe and secured with an action plan we set, even when we are away.

#### Cons

ThreatLocker is a robust solution. It can be very daunting to get started and comes with a time commitment to learn\configure. I could see how some companies could struggle getting through that phase, but it is worth it.

#### Reasons for choosing ThreatLocker

ThreatLocker just made more sense for the price.

#### Reasons for switching to ThreatLocker

We needed more insight into devices as we could see trends of legitimate software being used maliciously. Application whitelisting was the fix for this.

The process for onboarding was amazing. The account manager, implementation specialist, and cyber hero’s have been wonderful. They listened to me and helped get our tenant set up exactly as we need.

#### Cons

It can be extremely technical. Be sure to take the training available in the University.

#### Reasons for switching to ThreatLocker

Cost (less than half the cost) and feature set.

### ThreatLocker- an excellent whitelisting software

- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months

I don't have to worry about malware or ransomware because ThreatLocker is an application whitelisting software, which means all application/programs are in a default state of "deny all" unless it has been approved by a ThreatLocker policy or by the IT department.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

It is easy to use. User interface for both the client and the admin console are very understandable. I love the "install" mode. It is very easy to add new software to the policies, especially since ThreatLocker comes with many pre-defined policies or it is very easy to create a new. When you initially install TreatLocker on a a computer or server, you run it in Learn or Monitored mode. Then it creates the policies if they don't already exist.

#### Cons

I don't really have any negative things to say about it.

#### Reasons for choosing ThreatLocker

ThreatLocker was more user friendly and understandable user interface and admin console.

### Total Control and Peace of Mind – My Journey with ThreatLocker!

- Reviewer: Verified Reviewer
- Verified reviewer: Yes

- Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: November 2025

I​‍​‌‍​‍‌ really enjoyed working with ThreatLocker. It is a very effective tool to actually implement the concept of Zero Trust security — giving you full insight and control over what is happening in your environment. Once I got past the initial learning curve, it was really obvious to me how effectively it stops unauthorized applications and possible threats from getting started. The app's allowlisting and ringfencing functionalities have been a complete turnaround in how I deal with security. I don’t have to worry about new software or ransomware coming in, as everything that is running is what I have definitely ​‍​‌‍​‍‌approved.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

I​‍​‌‍​‍‌ have been using ThreatLocker for several months, and it stands out as one of the most powerful cybersecurity tools in my toolkit. Its commitment to a Zero Trust model literally blew my mind. After the installation, I was amazed by how much control I actually had over the allowed applications and scripts on our systems. The whole thing was a total overhaul of how we do endpoint protection. * Strong Zero Trust Protection: The “deny by default” strategy implemented by ThreatLocker gives absolute control over the operations of which applications and scripts, thus the likelihood of ransomware and malware attacks is drastically reduced. * Powerful Application Allowlisting: The allowlisting capability is highly accurate and efficient — after the completion of the setup, it acts as a security layer that permits software to run only if they are pre-approved, thus providing unbeatable endpoint security. * Ringfencing Technology: This technology helps the separation of the different functionalities of an application so that they cannot access data or other programs unless it is necessary, thus preventing lateral attacks and data leaks. * Comprehensive Visibility: The control panel provides an accurate and up-to-the-minute picture of what each device is doing, thus facilitating monitoring and auditing ​‍​‌‍​‍‌considerably.

#### Cons

I​‍​‌‍​‍‌ encountered several issues with this platform. Initial Setup Complexity: The setup was quite overwhelming when I first started using ThreatLocker. While the platform offers a lot of control and customization, it still takes a considerable amount of time to understand and properly configure the policies. Learning Curve: The product implements a Zero Trust model; hence, it requires some technical background. A new admin or a small team without a dedicated IT staff might find it difficult initially. Frequent Policy Adjustments: Initially, I had to constantly adjust the settings to allow the legitimate applications, which was somewhat inconvenient until the system got familiar with our ​‍​‌‍​‍‌environment.

### ThreatLocker a Requirement for your Security Stack!

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Matthew C.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Information Technology and Services
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: February 2025
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

I've been using ThreatLocker for about four years now within our primary security stack, and it has been rock solid. We primarily use their Application Control function, but we have also demoed their EDR solution, which is incredibly strong and significantly lighter weight than other EDRs on the market. The Application Control portion has been amazing, provided you put in the effort to tune the software for the tools you use. Their engineers are great to work with, and I haven't had a bad experience with them to date. [sensitive content hidden] (engineer) and [sensitive content hidden] (Account Rep) have been fantastic at keeping us updated on what's coming and assisting with any issues that arise. The tool is incredibly stable on our endpoints, and we've only seen minor breaks on devices with crazy high uptimes. We manage over 7,700 endpoints, all containing ThreatLocker Application Control. We couldn't recommend this tool enough if you want to keep your endpoints safe. It has single-handedly saved customers from potential compromise due to the way it allows and denies applications.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The Vendor Support has been Fantastic! Their Application Control and Elevation Control has been a great addition to DiD Security Stack! The ability to overwrite Microsoft Windows default UAC with ThreatLocker and give end users more control over apps that are approved to run is a huge help for those tools that require Admin writes just to function.

#### Cons

The ability to control the Tray settings and the ability to add customer popups to the Request Access popup is my least favorite part of the tool. It's pretty limited and doesn't allow much ability to customization options.

### ThreatLocker is an outstanding product backed by an oustanding team

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Paul W.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Information Technology and Services
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: February 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

One of the best things about ThreatLocker is the don't just sell you the product and then leave you hanging without support or worst still charge you for the support after the initial sale like so many other companies. To be honest it was a breath of fresh air in comparison to so many other companies. They provide you with a dedicated team to ensure you get the most out of the product and that it runs optimally. We were assigned a very kind chap [sensitive content hidden] who deserves a huge shout out for his outstanding efforts and commitment to getting us up and running. Nothing was too much trouble he was on hand every step of the way helping us deliver ThreatLocker to all our customers but one in particular was a nightmare. Nonetheless [sensitive content hidden] rose to the challenge helping train, guide and often finding solutions to allowing some rather interesting applications coexist with ThreatLocker whilst securing the environment. We are still very much on a journey with [sensitive content hidden] and the team at ThreatLocker but the hard work is most certainly paying off and we wouldn't hesitate recommending ThreatLocker to anyone. The Cyber Hero team are available 24/7 and are always ready to help with any questions about the service or best practices and have now become an extension of our own team.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Overall it has been a fantastic experience the software and solution is solid and the support and team have been invaluable getting this implemented across our customer base. Once properly implemented (which does take time and effort) it provides a controlled, safe environment and sets secure boundaries for our clients systems without the large performance overheads that so many other applications impose. The cost of Threatlocker and the time you need to provide to getting it set-up is absolutely worth it. Not only does the application deliver peace of mind to the customer environments we have deployed it to, it also gives us confidence knowing they are safe and secure. It ticks all the boxes for one of the biggest challenges out there and that's securing customers and meeting Cyber Security requirements.

#### Cons

I don't quite see this as a con personally but prospective customers need to be aware that this is a complex security tool which requires a large commitment of time and effort to get configured. It's not by any stretch of the imagination and tool that you just install and forget.
