Gained full visibility and streamlined threat detection through behavior-based insights and AI integration

Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth. We have fine-tuned our security policies and allowed different levels of policies to get rid of those false positives. Currently, we are getting a fairly good amount of incidents that are not false positives or benign, but actionable items. The process is streamlined. In the initial days, the operations used to get involved in a lot of benign and other activities, but now the process is streamlined. We are leveraging the auto-detection and remediation plans. The operations teams are now more involved in other business roles as well, not just looking into the logs and fetching out what's happening there. They have fixed a lot of things. Initially, they didn't have IAC code drift detection, cloud posture management, or security posture management, but they have those now. They purchased different vendors and did a merger with that. They have now Prisma Cloud that gets integrated and now they are working with Cortex Cloud. Everything that was negative has now been addressed, and the product altogether looks to be in a very better and mature shape now. Currently, it's more or less detecting the workloads with AI-based best practices. Since most organizations are consuming AI agents and other things, we are looking forward to seeing what other feature enhancements Palo Alto can support in that.

Exceptional malware protection with regular updates and behavior-based detection

There are no built-in backups or integrated backup options, which could be an opportunity. The free version is effective, however, the paid version is pricey compared to it. Other customers have mentioned issues with false positives. It lacks enterprise-level management and more enterprise functionality. CrowdStrike and SentinelOne are much more enterprise-grade solutions. Malwarebytes has limited integration with cybersecurity tools and lacks enterprise integrations because it is not an enterprise product.

Automation has reduced alerts and freed the soc team to focus on faster incident response

Regarding mean time to respond, the improvements I see with SentinelOne Singularity Complete are that genuine files also get alerts. We are getting false positives, but we are also getting genuine true positive alerts. The improvement will be deep visibility because as I am using Splunk as a SIEM, I compare deep visibility with Splunk, but deep visibility has limited access with only a 14-day policy to retain logs. The improvement will be in overall policy management. The third point will be the complexity of policies. If we want some endpoints to use only USB or if we need to block USB on some points, the policy management is very complex. The fourth point will be that Mac OS and Linux don't have the rollback policy; that policy is only for Windows. These four points are improvements if SentinelOne Singularity Complete can address them. Data privacy and security when utilizing Purple AI is crucial for SentinelOne Singularity Complete, and SentinelOne Singularity Complete lacks in data security. Data security is very important in this world. In my organization, if we deploy SentinelOne Singularity Complete and we have integrated all the firewalls, all devices, and AWS devices to SentinelOne Singularity Complete, logs will be forwarded to SentinelOne Singularity Complete through SentinelOne Singularity Complete. However, SentinelOne Singularity Complete doesn't have data security solutions such as Forcepoint DLP or 48 layer; SentinelOne Singularity Complete doesn't have that DLP solution. From the data security point of view, SentinelOne Singularity Complete is not good.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Palo Alto is the core of the security infrastructure in the environment."

"The tool's use cases are relevant to security."

"The information the dashboard provides is very clear."

"Traps is quite a stable product. Once it was properly deployed and configured, you have nothing to be worried about."

"Previously, we had to install endpoint protection per machine and then scan and update, but Cortex XDR basically does that centrally and predictably, so we have more time to do day-to-day work rather than spend time chasing those endpoints."

"The normal protection was really effective, and we detected situations that if we didn't have Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, it's highly likely that we would have been affected, but it protected the infrastructure."

"When the pandemic started, Palo Alto came up with many solutions, which helped with the quick shift from on-premises to the cloud."

"I like the centralized console and the predictive analysis it does of malware. It is very stable and also scalable."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The endpoint protection and response that allows us to restore a machine back to a pre-infected state are the most valuable features."

"The most valuable features of the solution are malware scanning and malware removal."

"When it comes to frontend protections, it has some of the best definitions. In addition, they do traditional signature and heuristic detection a lot better than Microsoft and some other players in that space."

"The protection is really good with Malwarebytes. It's also user friendly and quite easy to set up."

"The pricing of the product is very good."

"I never have to look at it or do anything with it, and then my system just stays clean."

"The most valuable feature is that it stops malware, which is important."

"The solution is very good at scanning."

More Malwarebytes Teams pros

"Overall, SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint has been a valuable security solution for my organization, as the AI-driven detection, automatic response, and centralized management provide strong protection while reducing the time required for monitoring and incident response."

"I would recommend SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint to other users because its threat detection and alerting are very quick."

"For endpoint protection, I see SentinelOne as the perfect solution, and for the server, I feel that Deep Security from Trend Micro is working fine as I have seen various organizations using it."

"In terms of the engines that SentinelOne uses, it has stopped various scripts from running and it's highlighted lateral movement that we weren't expecting."

"The most valuable feature is the quick response to attacks."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete has positively impacted my company by being hassle-free, providing good ROI, giving the best security with its rollback feature, offering extensive integration with other solutions, and using such a lightweight agent that it does not cause any system slowness."

"I find the product very easy to maintain and troubleshoot. Their engineers are very helpful if you need additional assistance. It's one of the best products I've used. It's easy to use from my standpoint, both for troubleshooting and with the support we get from their team if necessary."

"It delivers the type of security which we were hoping for, since we have a lot of different endpoint users utilizing different types of software. We have people who only use Office software, like email, Word, and PDFs. Then, we have people who use some applications that other people wrote. We also write applications in-house using people who develop software. Therefore, we have some machines using very high-end developer software for mechanical development, electronic development, and software development. Those users are used to managing their PC on their own. The centralize platform allows us to differentiate between those three groups of people. We have overall control and can oversee the security levels at all the endpoints. They have not yet been blocked in any way when performing the functions"

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint pros

Cons

"I would like to see some additional features related to email protection included."

"While using Cortex, I noticed some aspects that could be improved, such as increasing the synchronization speed between XDR and Xnor."

"In general, the price could be more competitive."

"I have run into some detection issues with Cortex XDR. It needs to be better at detection of internal attacks."

"Currently, we are monitoring all USB drives and ports but we would like to improve our device control capabilities."

"In terms of areas of improvement, we have not completed our review of the product. We're also looking at other products. So, it's a little bit hard to tell what could be different because we have not completed the review of this product, but based on our experience so far, its implementation is quite complex."

"When it comes to core analysis, and security analysis, Cortex needs to provide more information."

"A potential area of improvement for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the cost."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The EPP solution lacks the sophisticated artificial intelligence required for automating reports and letting you know about things in real-time. It stops a suspicious activity in real-time, but it doesn't let you know in real-time. You have to look at a report, and then you find out that something is wrong. You have to manually kick off a scan. With the Advanced EDR solutions, Malwarebytes has the ability to alert you in real-time, but they still don't do automatic remediation or quarantining of devices. That is something that you still have to do manually. So, the endpoint protection piece, which is just like their basic endpoint protection, lacks AI. For the advanced detection and response piece, there is an add-on that comes with it, but it still doesn't go far enough in terms of automatic remediation of viruses. It won't separate that virus from your network if something happens. You have to manually go there and do it."

"The interface could be improved. Currently, you need to really dig around to find the elements you need."

"The product is a little bit more expensive than the other brands."

"There are no built-in backups or integrated backup options, which could be an opportunity."

"A solution must be installed in the main gateway to give an overview of the incoming and outgoing traffic. The technical support team's response time should be faster."

"It is one of the worst products which I have ever used."

"It would be better if updates could be downloaded, and deployed, on-premises to avoid low bandwidth causing issues."

"Requires increased efficiency in terms of detecting false positives."

More Malwarebytes Teams cons

"The performance could be better. Singularity lags a bit, and it's a resource-hungry application, so it takes a while to load."

"I think there are other improvement points to consider regarding SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint. The public documentation is not quite comprehensive enough; it would be good if they improved the search engine for the technical documentation."

"However, for complex cases—especially agent-related problems—we sometimes need remote assistance, and that level of support is not included in the basic subscription."

"I would like to see improvements in the hashes function, particularly in the hashes tab, as multiple hashes are difficult to add in the correct format in SentinelOne Singularity Complete for Windows, Linux, and Mac."

"I would like to have a remote desktop feature added so we can remotely access our endpoints."

"The solution should include USB blocking for specific machines."

"The solution needs better reporting on new threats and malware. The reporting is present, but I can't find the information easily."

"It is difficult to manage users in SentinelOne."

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price was fine."

"Very costly product."

"It has a yearly renewal."

"It is cost-effective compared to similar solutions. It fits for the small businesses through to the big businesses."

"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."

"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."

"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."

"The price of the product is not very economical."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"Its licensing is annual. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."

"The cost may be something in the ballpark of $20-25 a year per computer."

"Its cost is around $60 a machine. The cost of the total solution for 250 people is about $8,500 a year. If we add EDR to it, it will bring that cost up to about $15,000. The cost for Carbon Black is about $25,000, which is $10,000 more, but you get all AI functions with it."

"I would say that it's affordable. It costs much less than Sentinel One, CrowdStrike, or anything of that nature. But, at the same time, you are getting what you pay for. So I would say it's one of the best when you're comparing traditional NextGen AVs like Webroot that aren't the best in the bunch."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the product's pricing a seven."

"It is really expensive. We've got between 30 and 40 licenses every year, and for the number of licenses that we have, we're finding that Malwarebytes on average costs between $900 and $1,000 more per year than comparable options. We're paying about $3,300 per year for these licenses. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."

"The licensing is per seat, with clients being a little less expensive than servers. If we need more licenses, we can accomplish that within a day. As Malwarebytes adds new features to their product, such as DNS filtering and a patching module, they want to charge us more even though we're a premium user, which isn't ideal."

"It is expensive."

More Malwarebytes Teams pricing and cost advice

"The cost of utilizing all the features of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is high."

"SentinelOne is more affordable than some competing products, and it's not overly expensive for what you're getting."

"We have not been beaten in the market by pricing, so we have been feeling good about that. The discussions we have had over the years keep us at a very low price per unit. It can always get better, but we also know there is a cost to the backend."

"The pricing is comparable with other vendors but some customers find it a bit costly."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is expensive compared to Microsoft but not Sophos."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is reasonably priced."

"I do not know much about the pricing. What I do know is that the person who negotiates most of the pricing is quite a hard bargainer. In that regard, he often says that he managed to get a very good deal. When we first looked at replacing our old system with Singularity Complete, its price was definitely a big factor. Back then, Singularity Complete was fairly new to the marketplace. We got quite a good deal as an early adopter. They have honored that and respected that we were an early adopter, and I feel we are still getting a very good price."

"The price is fair for what we are getting."
