Senior Process Expert at A.P. Moller - Maersk
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.

A cost-effective security solution for endpoint protection
The initial setup is complex. It is rare to see an effective endpoint protection system that does not require some effort. It is neither on the cloud nor on-premises. You deploy it on every endpoint or server, irrespective of perimeter. You must use a deployment tool unless you prefer to do it manually on every endpoint or server. We used an automation tool to deploy it. Since we had MSI with us. We had to verify that everything worked, but it didn't take more than two weeks for 1000 endpoints.
Vaibhav Mahendra Kolhe - PeerSpot reviewer
Soc Analyst at Softcell Technologies Limited
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

"Their XDR agent and their behavioral indicators of compromise (BIOC) are pretty nice. Their managed threat hunting is also pretty nice. They also have WildFire, which is a service for actively looking for malware. It's quite useful."
"Cortex XDR alerts us on the dashboard when there's a threat, which allows us to restrict that user and helps secure our infrastructure."
"Cortex XDR lets us manage several clients from the same console, and its endpoint defense is more advanced than traditional antivirus."
"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."
"It's a nice product that's stable and scalable."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"The most valuable for us is the correlation feature."
"It detected stuff that other things wouldn't detect."
"First of all, it does the job. It prevents harm to the operating system. Also, the visibility it gives to the user and to the administrator is very good."
"This product really is the best solution for this security issue."
"Nyotron protects your users and does not acquire any threat intelligence."
"It has the best ROI that I've seen."
"Most of the features are valuable. As a system integrator, agent deployment is valuable. It also fits the requirements of most of the clients."
"SentinelOne also provides equal protection across Windows, Linux, and macOS. I have all of them and every flavor of them you could possibly imagine. They've done a great job because I still have a lot of legacy infrastructure to support. It can support legacy environments as well as newer environments, including all the latest OS's... There are cost savings not only on licensing but because I don't have to have different people managing different consoles."
"The terminating or killing remediation process that they use is top-notch. Pretty much anything that is even remotely malicious gets blocked by it within seconds. That is important for us. We have thousands of endpoints with tens of thousands of users. It is hard to do good security for that many people without some kind of automated detection and response. That is what SentinelOne does for us. It helps us automate that process."
"SentinelOne is very lightweight; it doesn’t consume much memory of endpoints, endpoints don't hang, and machine performance doesn’t get impacted, and their technical support is also very nice."
"My general view is that Singularity Complete does help to save time and free up my staff for other projects and tasks."
"Overall, the time saved, lower incident impact, and improved security confidence clearly justified the investment."
"We saw a return of investment within the first month."
 

Cons

"Impact on system performance is horrible, adding a lot of delays for users."
"The configuration could be simplified. I would like to see better protection, specifically to protect email applications."
"The downside to the solution is that there are a large number of false positives."
"Enhancing UI simplicity and playbook flexibility are areas that could benefit from more low-code automation options for smoother integrations."
"The product's pricing needs improvement. They could provide more discounts. Additionally, the dashboard and control panel could be enhanced."
"The MAC agent is not as robust feature-wise as the PC version."
"We would also like to have advanced tech protection and email scanning."
"The dashboard could use some significant improvement, just making it more useful with more information. It has a limited amount of information right now. It is customizable, but I'd love to see a better out-of-box dashboard."
"The main feature that is missing is to have the same solution on servers. Currently it's only protecting the client side, not the server. If they would add the server in the same solution, that would be great."
"The solution should be available on Linux and other platforms, including mobile platforms such as Android and iOS."
"The anti-ransomware technology takes up a lot of disc space."
"We have had one or two occasions when we had to roll back off our Windows machine. Then, we had an issue with SentinelOne where we couldn't let the client make contact with the cloud service anymore. Therefore, the integration with the Windows Service Recovery could be improved in the future."
"In terms of areas for improvement in SentinelOne Singularity Complete, it needs to give more straightforward directions or communication about detection or what has been detected."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete takes up a lot of memory in Google Chrome, which sometimes causes it to lag, so this is an area for improvement. The solution could be improved by increasing its efficiency within the web browser."
"Sometimes it causes a blue screen and causes the device to crash. It causes servers or computers to crash."
"We have had some stability issues with SentinelOne due to Windows 10 feature updates; it should be more stable."
"I would like to see a better control panel for the managed service side of it."
"The solution should include USB blocking for specific machines."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."
"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."
"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."
"In terms of the cost Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very expensive because we are a Mexican company and when you translate dollars to pesos the cost is very high. The solution is very expensive for Mexican companies. I understand that they have international prices, but I do not think it offsets the price enough for many companies in countries, such as Mexico. The amount it is reduced is not a massive percentage."
"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."
"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"It is present, but when compared to other competitive products, I would say it is not less expensive; however, when all of the other added values are considered, the price is reasonable."
"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."
Information not available
"The pricing and licensing make sense."
"Its price is per endpoint per year. One of the features of its licensing is that it is a multi-tenanted solution. From an MSSP point of view, if I want to have several different virtual clouds of customers, it is supported natively, which is not the case with, for example, Microsoft Defender. Another nice thing about it is that you can buy one license if you want to. Some vendors insist that you buy 50 or 100, whereas here, you can just buy one."
"The pricing is very reasonable."
"The cost of Singularity Complete is similar to our previous solution but it comes with additional options such as Kubernetes integration."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is expensive, but we must be willing to pay for it if we want a high level of protection."
"I find the licensing cost for SentinelOne Singularity Complete fair."
"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."
"I found the pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete reasonable."
