User-friendly solution with good blocking
I mainly use Security Premium as an antivirus.  Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface. Security Premium's cost could be lower. I've been using Security Premium for a year. Security Premium is stable - I haven't faced any issues or bugs while using…

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

"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"We like how it can check for issues, including files and web browsers, as it is a full-stack solution for antivirus for personal use and it is pretty effective."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
"The most valuable feature is the multifunctional protection."
"We tried a few: Kaspersky, Trend Micro, we used McAfee, we used Norton; we tried them all on our entire fleet of computers, and we realized that in terms of ease of use and resource consumption, Norton is something that is acceptable to us."
"We are able to write some custom rules on SentinelOne."
"The fact that this runs using AI instead of heuristics provides the best protection I've seen."
"What I appreciate most about SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is its automation features such as automated threat detection and responses, which can detect malicious activity, isolate devices, and even automatically roll back ransomware damage."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Vigilance Respond Pro monitoring. You don't have to have a dedicated SOC and worry about staffing."
"The ability to get queries by pressing the "tab" button is a plus for SentinelOne."
"The platform is user-friendly, easy to administer, and aligns well with GDPR requirements, which is crucial for us."
"SentinelOne is a much better solution with better value and a lower cost than the McAfee ePO."
"Once it fully adapts to the environment, customers don't even need to monitor their endpoint protection landscape, as it can automatically learn and mitigate any threats or problems with minimal human interaction."
 

Cons

"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"The product could always be more secure."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"They say Norton Security Premium is an all-in-one solution, but we don't know exactly what's in it, e.g. they didn't make an effort to explain the difference between a virus scan and a ransomware scan."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint can be improved by implementing more XDR in the network connections and connectivity."
"The overall integration functionality for this solution could be improved."
"We have had cases where Singularity Complete has caused applications to malfunction."
"I have to go in and build new exclusions daily, so it can be a headache for certain users and programs."
"One way to improve and get additional benefits would be for SentinelOne to host the updated installer files for us, rather than us having to download and host them ourselves."
"The documentation provided for implementation is not adequate and has caused us challenges."
"SentinelOne Complete did not reduce alerts; instead, it increased noise in the environment until fine-tunings were done for customized rules."
"Email security should also integrate with it to get more visibility on it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As I have been a long-time customer, I was given a fair price of $49.95 per month for the first four to six months."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"I don't pay for a license."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"The price for it is very competitive compared to other Next Gen EPP."
"We pay $30,000 a year for 275 endpoints. We're growing, so I plan to buy another 75 endpoints. There is still a year and a half left in my three-year subscription, so I'm going to increase my endpoint count by 30 percent."
"The solution is a bit cheaper than CrowdStrike Falcon Pro and more expensive than smaller solutions. Still, it has a pretty reasonable price point, as I appreciate the flexibility SentinelOne Singularity Complete offers."
"The pricing is very reasonable."
"The solution's price/performance ratio is reasonable."
"Spend money on the security for the endpoint."
"Its price can be lower because I'm seeing competition from another vendor who beats it on commercials."
"The pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete is competitive."
