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

"It indexes much faster, and is more reflexive because of the Enscripts."
"Using Encase we are able to implement security and also Forensics."
"The solution has been quite good, and, overall, the features we need are available to us."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"The solution is very stable."
"It is a very useful tool; it is worth buying irrespective of price."
"The technical support is excellent."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"Device control and network control are valuable."
"The solution offers very rich details surrounding threats or attacks."
"All customers from us are very happy because the biggest difference is that SentinelOne Singularity Complete gives us the support team and the TAC team."
"We have a preference for their receptor. It's good at finding many EFC files. EFC files could have a virus."
"It's a plug-and-play solution that works well with other out of box integrations that we have."
"Singularity Complete has helped reduce alerts."
"SentinelOne is stable and reliable."
"Singularity Platform's real-time personalization feature has helped our customer experience strategies by allowing us to have different workspaces where we have custom views, and depending on the use case because we have many products that use Singularity Platform, they interact with the UI in different ways, producing different elements and giving us tailored views for different products."
 

Cons

"I suggest that if the mobile phone acquisition is embedded in the Encase law enforcement version, it would be very useful."
"From a customer service standpoint, this is unacceptable."
"Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process."
"I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function."
"The reporting is a bit unreliable. It needs to be better."
"In the past, incident response time for tech support was slow."
"Ease of use and learning curve need improvement."
"​Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process.​"
"They need to improve how we install the software."
"SentinelOne could improve by reducing the price."
"Communication and documentation could be improved."
"The improvement could be in terms of reducing more noise and continuing to cut that down. AI seems to be the big thing with Purple. We are excited to get our hands on that."
"One area of SentinelOne that definitely has room for improvement is the reporting. The canned reports are clunky and we haven't been able to pull a lot of good information directly from them."
"Maybe they can develop some firewall aspects for it to better protect us."
"I would have liked the dashboard to be more user-friendly."
"They should host a data center in Saudi Arabia, making it easy for customers to go for a SaaS model."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"​The product is affordable and user-friendly.​"
"EnCase is an affordable solution."
"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."
"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."
"My understanding is that we did a pretty good deal on SentinelOne. A part of that is because we were their customers very early on, and we also use their products a lot. We are interested in the new products that come out. We go to their demos, and we go to their events. We do save a lot of money. It is not cheap, but it is worth it. We spend a lot of money on a lot of things, and most of them do not do as much as SentinelOne."
"It's around $8 per client per month."
"Overall, it was a good experience. It is pretty easy for us to increase the number."
"It is very competitive with other solutions that are on the market. At least the last time we renewed, it was very competitive."
"The per-seat cost is low, but you have to commit to a certain number of licenses for a year."
"It is very affordable and easy to license, and it allows us to onboard new analysts quickly, with a turnaround time of one day at most."
"SentinelOne is significantly less expensive than CrowdStrike. I recently did a price comparison between CrowdStrike and SentinelOne to determine where we are going for the next three years. CrowdStrike is 200% to 300% the cost."
"We are on a subscription model by choice. Therefore, we are paying a premium for the flexibility. We would have huge cost savings if we committed to a three-year buy-in. So, it's more expensive than the other solutions that we were looking at, but we have the flexibility of a subscription model. I think the pricing is fair. For example, if we had a three-year tie-in SentinelOne versus Cylance or one of the others, there is not that much difference in pricing. There might be a few euro or dollars here and there, but it's negligible."
