Featured Reviews

Alejandro Stromer - PeerSpot reviewer
Director Consulting SAP OpenText en Entelgy at DCL Consultores EIM SL
A stable and scalable hybrid solution with easy setup
The solution is scalable. It has three levels. You have the presentation area that can be escalated to the balance sheet. You have the back-end area that can be escalated using higher viability to configure more application servers. Also, the area of storage can be increased. We usually cater to enterprise solutions but have small- and medium-sized customers. It starts with 25 users and goes up to 100s and 1000s.
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

"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts, as it allows me to customize the scripts and deploy them as and how I need them, for example to segregate and index files efficiently."
"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts. That is one powerful feature that I, personally, love to use."
"Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis."
"The solution has been quite good, and, overall, the features we need are available to us."
"Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis."
"It speeds up the process, so I can meet my deadlines."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"The alerting features are the most valuable. We know that when something goes wrong, we get alerted instantly. That gives us a leg up. Even before the user knows what's happening, we're being alerted to step in and stop anything catastrophic from happening."
"We have had very few false positives or false negatives, which allows our analysts to focus on their work instead of dealing with noise."
"The GUI is really easy to use."
"The Ranger feature is valuable."
"The visibility and, obviously, the protection aspects are second to none when it comes to speed. Another thing we fall back on is the option to roll back an endpoint if it is infected. There is a shadow copy so that if a PC downloads malicious content, we can roll it back to the state it was in before that package was imported."
"The reporting part is awesome."
"The threat detection and prevention capabilities are valuable, providing development programming support that enables us to perform fair investigations."
"I find the application inventory feature to be extremely useful."
 

Cons

"​Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process.​"
"The reporting is a bit unreliable. It needs to be better."
"I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function."
"We have come across problems with the end-case. We could not find an email discovery type of module and there was not flexibility with the email."
"Ease of use and learning curve need improvement."
"This is not the program I would suggest for a newbie using to learn. It is just too expensive for the full experience, and the student versions, while very good, are just for that, students."
"I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function."
"We have come across problems with the end-case. We could not find an email discovery type of module and there was not flexibility with the email."
"I am not a fan of the UI and feel it has room for improvement."
"Managing the false positives creates additional management overhead."
"The MDM functionality and maturity still need improvement."
"Some reports could be better."
"The solution is expensive. It is costlier than Trend Micro and Palo Alto XDR."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete should focus on analytical data. Backend aggregation can make things faster in the front end."
"There is not much flexibility in terms of policy fine-tuning. We can turn it off or turn it on, but, there's nothing much else to do. Everything is predefined. It's good in a way, but you don't get much flexibility if you want to do something particular."
"I would like to see the reports from SentinelOne more customizable, as there are very few options."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."
"​The product is affordable and user-friendly.​"
"We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."
"EnCase is an affordable solution."
"Nothing good is cheap, and SentinelOne is no exception."
"The cost of utilizing all the features of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is high."
"The solution's price/performance ratio is reasonable."
"This solution is less expensive than its competitors."
"Just buy the Capture Client and buy the installer itself in a license of 100,000, or whatever is needed. You don't need to invest in any management tools because they are already installed, and maintenance from the client will keep everything up and running."
"USD$6 per end point which decreases as end points increase."
"It is very competitive with other solutions that are on the market. At least the last time we renewed, it was very competitive."
"I believe the retail pricing, or MSRP, is a bit high."
