Featured Reviews

Israel Cavazos Landini - PeerSpot reviewer
Weekly insights and risk analysis facilitate informed security decisions
I appreciate the weekly insights Zafran provides, which include critical topics for networks and IT security, allowing us to evaluate which insights apply to our environment. The organization score feature is valuable to keep the leadership team updated on how our infrastructure fares security-wise. The applicable risk level versus base risk level feature is beneficial because prior to Zafran, we only used the base risk level, but now understand that risk depends on the asset itself. Zafran is an excellent tool.
Ankesh Raj - PeerSpot reviewer
Real-time responses and reporting streamline vulnerability management
Qualys VMDR provides a real-time response and reporting feature, which is excellent. It allows us to see real-time graphs and reports for every asset, server, and more, which is very user-friendly. Our clients have given good feedback, and they are satisfied with the tool. We use it daily to fix vulnerabilities by connecting with infrastructure to remediate. The feedback from the client side is very good.
Roftiel Constantine - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides proactive threat remediation, reduces alert volume, and enhances incident response capabilities
During our pre-purchase evaluation of SentinelOne's EDR capabilities three years ago, we were consistently impressed by the positive relationships customers reported having with SentinelOne's engineers, sales teams, and customer success managers. These strong relationships, evident in the customers' unsolicited feedback, highlighted the "soft skills" and intangible qualities that SentinelOne possessed. This positive customer experience has been mirrored in our own interactions with them. Their responsiveness to our needs, particularly when addressing a couple of challenges we faced, has been excellent. They proactively scheduled weekly meetings to demonstrate their commitment to resolving our issues, a customer-centric approach I admire. SentinelOne's dedication to customer service, including their rapid technology updates and responsiveness to our suggestions, has been crucial to our success in protecting our organization. Their ability to quickly incorporate our needs into new releases is truly impressive and sets them apart. Overall, I highly recommend SentinelOne based on our positive interactions across all levels of their organization.

Quotes from Members

"Zafran is an excellent tool."
"We are able to see the real risk of a vulnerability on our environment with our security tools."
"Zafran has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal."
"Overall, we have seen about eighty-seven percent reduction of the number of vulnerabilities that require urgency to remediate, specifically the number of criticals."
"There are fewer false positives when using this solution."
"Qualys VM has allowed us to know the vulnerabilities we need to prioritize based on the threat levels and the possible impact if there's an intrusion."
"Detects new hosts along with vulnerabilities."
"I value the scheduling of scans and reports as per the desired timeframes."
"Qualys VMDR provides a real-time response and reporting feature, which is excellent."
"The process of defining and discovering scans is organized efficiently."
"It's a good product. After the scan our internet works well. It scans our security posture."
"The product's patch management is excellent for keeping our critical servers and third-party applications updated efficiently."
"The protection provided by SentinelOne Singularity Identity is the most valuable feature."
"The AI provides a futuristic ML model. That helps a lot when it comes to shifting security approaches and hep better forecast attacks."
"The biggest value for us is getting a much better picture of what our risks are."
"One of the top things we're interested in is cloud protection."
"The XDR capabilities are very good."
"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward."
"SentinelOne stands out due to its AI capabilities, which lead to excellent prevention."
"The incident and threat logs are great."
 

Cons

"I think the ability to have some enhanced reporting capabilities is something they can improve on, as they have good reports but we have asked for some specific reporting enhancements."
"The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements."
"Initially, we were somewhat concerned about the scalability of Zafran due to our large asset count and the substantial amount of information we needed to process."
"The disadvantage of working with Qualys is that the graphical interface is quite outdated."
"Qualys currently does not have any features for scanning SCADA, IoT, and Industrial Control Systems."
"The ability to manage user accounts and give rights to the operator to know about abnormalities of applications is something that needs improvement."
"Qualys VMDR could improve in reducing the occurrences of false positive vulnerabilities."
"I would like to see this solution more developed and competitive in the Cloud space."
"If AI features were integrated, it could enhance the capabilities significantly."
"Qualys should improve their customer experience. They need to improve the tech support experience and the turnaround time."
"I would like to see more accuracy in detections, better reporting capabilities, and better dashboard download capabilities."
"The solution's query resolution time could be reduced further, and a faster resolution could be provided."
"The primary reason for this discontent is that we frequently encounter performance issues with our servers."
"Support could be faster. They need a faster response time."
"The policies could be more precise, and Singularity should use more templates like alternative solutions have. Endpoint management is poor. We cannot manage individual endpoints and must rely on policies, exclusions, or block lists to apply settings to a group instead of the individual agent. If I have to make settings for one computer, I need to create a group, apply the configuration, and move the agent there. It's challenging to manage endpoints that way."
"The resolution turnaround from SentinelOne Singularity Identity's support should be improved."
"We've brought three critical items to their attention regarding vulnerability management."
"The first-level support has room for improvement."
"One area for improvement would be the self-healing nature of the agent."
