Is Lavawall a Canadian alternative to Huntress?

Yes, for breach detection, working alongside Huntress. Lavawall is fully Canadian-owned by ThreeShield Information Security Corporation, a Canadian corporation in Calgary. It is hosted in Canada by default, billed in Canadian dollars, and paid by Interac, pre-authorized debit, or Canadian credit card, and supported by staff in Canada. It is a multi-tenant RMM and remote support platform for MSPs and IT teams, with patching, security monitoring, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace breach detection, and compliance built into the same agent and console.

Where is Lavawall's data hosted?

Lavawall's data is hosted in Canada by default: on AWS in Montréal today, moving to a Canadian-owned hosting provider in Vancouver in Q4 2026. Data can be placed in the United States, Europe, or Australia instead when a client's obligations call for it.

Can I pay for Lavawall in Canadian dollars?

Yes. Lavawall is priced in Canadian dollars with GST, HST, PST, and QST handled, and you can pay by Interac, Canadian pre-authorized debit, or Canadian credit card. Billing is month-to-month or annual, with no high-water-mark billing.

Can Lavawall replace Huntress?

Not as a managed SOC. Lavawall does not provide 24/7 human threat response. It adds cloud breach detection, ransomware hunting, patching, and compliance, and works alongside Huntress.
