Desktop Support Engineer at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees
Centralized threat insights have transformed how my team prioritizes and investigates incidents
SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response is a strong platform overall, but there are areas for improvement. The reporting and dashboard customization could be more flexible to better suit different teams' needs. In some cases, having more detailed investigation guidance and clearer explanations for complex detections would help analysts, especially those who are new to the platform. I would also like to see broader integration with third-party security tools and additional customization options for alerts and workflows. These improvements would make it even easier to fit the platform into different security environments and operational processes. One area that could be improved is the availability of more advanced training resources and practical documentation. While the platform is user-friendly, having more detailed use case-based guides, troubleshooting examples, and hands-on learning materials would help teams get more value from the solution. Additional best practice documentation around threat investigation, workflow integration, and advanced features would also be helpful. Regular training sessions or updates with learning context would make it easier for administrators and analysts to stay current with new capabilities and improve their overall usage of the platform. One additional area for improvement would be providing more customization options for dashboard, reports, and workflow to better match different organizations and requirements. Enhanced automation options and more detailed guidance for complex threat investigation would also help teams get even more value from the platform. More frequent advanced training materials, real-world use cases, and updated documentation would be beneficial as new features are introduced. Overall, the platform is effective, but continued improvements in customization, learning resources, and investigation capabilities would make it even stronger.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"On my end, the most valuable feature of this solution is that I can install it and forget about it. After that, their SOC team takes over and they only call me when there's a problem."
"The solution is all encompassing and can incorporate email monitoring."
"I appreciate that there are people behind the scenes sorting out valuable alerts from those that are not, so I only get alerts when they are real."
"On a scale from one to ten, I would rate the overall solution as a ten."
"The solution also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response has a positive impact on our organization by improving our ability to detect, investigate, and respond to security threats more efficiently."
"SentinelOne Vigilance has very good detection."
"This product is very stable. It is important that this solution is running all day, every day, all year long."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its performance, which is very important for us in our company."
"We are still working on it, and you can't find a silver bullet solution, however, building your total security with SentinelOne included in your portfolio is a great thing."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The main benefits that clients receive from SentinelOne Singularity MDR, from an operational perspective, include ease of deployment, where the installation process across various operating systems and different hardware configurations goes smoothly with minimal impact on end users."
"Most of the next-generation anti-virus products, including SentinelOne Vigilance, have behavior analytics included, and this is the feature I find most valuable in the solution."
 

Cons

"The feature we keep asking for is a vulnerability scan."
"The solution does not tie into other EDR products like CyberArk or CrowdStrike but that might be more useful."
"Some texts seem to report items as normal too quickly."
"The interface could be more intuitive."
"While I am very satisfied with the service, supporting additional platforms, particularly Linux support, would be a beneficial improvement."
"The interface could be more intuitive. More transparency is needed in the interface as a lot of details are hidden behind the scenes, making them difficult or impossible to access."
"I have found issues with the solution’s stability and implementation. The solution has performance issues. I would like the solution to launch the rollback plan for ransomware on Linux and Mac. It should be something similar to the support that Windows gets."
"SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response is a strong solution, but it could be enhanced with more customizable dashboards and reporting, deeper integrations, third-party security rules, and additional automation options for incident response workflow."
"SentinelOne Vigilance doesn't have a direct connection with MSPs."
"There's no problem with how this product works, but the toughest challenge that customers find is with its deployment and tuning. Getting it tuned properly takes some time. You can deploy it with just about anything, but it's always a challenge."
"Regarding disadvantages of SentinelOne Vigilance, there is no local hub server that I can use to download the updates and signatures only once."
"Accuracy is pretty good but obviously it needs improvement."
"There is always room for continuous improvement for SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response."
"SentinelOne Vigilance's integration capabilities with other products can be considered as an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is in line with other products."
"SentinelOne Vigilance is priced in a normal range."
"I give the cost a three out of ten."
"The tool's pricing is slightly cheaper than other alternatives. It's not just about licensing costs; because we already have it implemented, we can save money on deployment and initial setup. Additionally, SentinelOne Vigilance is slightly cheaper in licensing, maybe around 10-15 percent cheaper."
"The solution’s pricing is very reasonable."
"The licensing cost depends on the number of connected devices and whether you purchase additional services."
"I rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten since it is really expensive, but it is well worth what my company gets."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten since it is a very highly-priced solution."
