Advanced AI-driven monitoring has strengthened investigations and now prioritizes critical threats
I would not say there is anything that could be better in SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM; I think we have seen something unique in the product. This product has the potential to add more SOC functionality on top of its SIEM, which can automate a few more things because I have the information there. I need to do what I would call security agents or agentic AI to be built on top; it can take care of a lot more analysis and actions. Maybe licensing cost can also be looked at and reduced. We are still to see the automated feature work a little bit more; we are not really using it to the full extent.

"The way the solution responds to detections and warnings is really impressive."
"I would give Cortex XSIAM a rating of ten out of ten."
"Since implementing Cortex XSIAM, incident response times have been significantly reduced by approximately twenty percent."
"The automation capabilities significantly improve response times by allowing us to respond to incidents from a single dashboard rather than navigating multiple dashboards."
"One of the valued aspects of the product is its use of artificial intelligence to detect security vulnerabilities."
"The product integrates seamlessly with third-party solutions."
"Overall, I would assess the overall security posture after implementing SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM as significantly better."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM's AI-powered analytics does affect our SOC's ability to reduce false positives; that is one of the biggest advantages because the manpower that I have is limited."
"AI-driven capabilities will give me real-time detection and will protect my autonomous AI interruption."
"After using SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM, it has reduced our incident response time by forty to fifty percent compared to other tools."
"When they face attacks such as ransomware and are dissatisfied with their existing solutions, they switch to SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM, which is quite good in detecting unknown threats, cleaning the system, and handling ransomware."
 

Cons

"Cortex XSIAM is pretty expensive, and the licensing process is not very comfortable compared to CrowdStrike."
"Cortex XSIAM is on the expensive side and requires substantial improvement in pricing."
"I am not sure if any improvements are needed right now."

"It is quite good, but the only downside is that it is costly."
"In AI SIEM, the areas that have room for improvement are the parsers for third-party integrated data or for third-party data sources that are not native integrations, which could be made a bit easier."
"At the moment, I feel the pricing is a little bit on the higher side, but the tool is positioned in a place where risk is very high, and we do not want to take chances, so we are prepared to pay the premium."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
