Featured Reviews

Dev Reshwal - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Support Executive at Softcell Technologies Limited
Automation has reduced workload and real-time monitoring provides faster incident response
SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM is the best, but sometimes the dashboards are a little simple compared to other tools. The custom dashboard is not available in their features. Therefore, I would suggest adding the custom dashboard for any of our requirements. The AI-driven analytics from SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has not affected our ability to reduce false positives. SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has affected my SOC's efficiency in investigating alerts and responding to incidents. If we receive any alerts, we can observe what activity is being done. We can see if it is malicious or something suspicious, or a true positive. We can analyze the path, the hash, and whether the signature is verified or not. We can see if it is an alert triggered by any engine. We can see the source of this. We will do that type of analysis and raise it to the client side. Also, if I identify anything suspicious or malicious in the alert, I will forcefully kill and quarantine it immediately.
Yashokanth Partkunan - PeerSpot reviewer
Managed Services Engineer at Loop1 Systems
Has supported client needs efficiently but requires deeper analysis features and faster support
The log analyzing capability of SolarWinds Security Event Manager should go into more depth than the current environment. More modification and enhancements are required on the dashboard side in order to make it closer to optimal performance. From observation and feedback from users, they need more functionality related to monitoring, and in-depth analyzing needs to be improved.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I have experienced no issues with SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM; it is the best product I have ever used, very stable, handy, easy to manage, and excellent with its AI-driven capabilities."
"Overall, this affects my security posture positively because it improves it since it helps us in real-time monitoring, and it gives us automated investigation and also the auto-investigate tab, so it is pretty good."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has improved our overall security posture and is reducing the workload on the SOC team."
"After using SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM, it has reduced our incident response time by forty to fifty percent compared to other tools."
"The best features of SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM include its user-friendly interface, ease of deployment, and ease of use, and it is also easy to control the devices, as we block USB on all machines, export the configuration of machines, and have very good visibility of the instance with excellent reports."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM's AI-powered analytics does affect our SOC's ability to reduce false positives; that is one of the biggest advantages because the manpower that I have is limited."
"I will strongly recommend this, because after SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM we have reduced our engineering time to a certain degree as it has helped us to do investigations fast, we get actual alerts that matter and can prioritize them properly, and the monitoring capability is now completely in one single platform so we do not have to go here and there, which has given us good ROI in total."
"I assess the overall security posture of our organization after implementing SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM as significantly improved."
"The product's most effective part in improving security stems from the fact that the solution is deployed for event management, log viewing, and information management."
"This tool is simple to use."
"We had to integrate with other teams, and the infrastructure deployment didn't take long. The integration involves learning with different teams, networking, and configuring various network devices and servers. Infrastructure deployment only took one or two days."
"Some of the rules are most valuable because you can be notified about various things, such as spyware or things that are going on in the internal network."
"SolarWinds is effective for server, network, and log monitoring. It's also good for IP address management. We also have a patch manager, but we're still working on getting that operational."
"It's extremely easy to deploy."
"It has in-depth monitoring capabilities and an easy way for setting up dashboards."
"We were suffering from a lack of visibility into our logs, so we implemented SolarWinds LEM."
 

Cons

"Unfortunately, I was not happy with SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM because it is not mature yet."
"Customer support could be better because it is frequently transferred to various agents."
"While it provides many built-in decorations and dashboards, creating highly customized decoration rules and reports can sometimes require additional efforts."
"There is room for improvement when it comes to the technical support quality and expertise of SentinelOne. Sometimes, the technical support team does not know how to resolve certain issues and takes time to respond, often requiring follow-up interactions within 24 hours."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM can improve in the area of XDR, especially in the integration between SentinelOne and other solutions and components in the network, as it was not working well with the Fortinet firewall."
"What I dislike is that the dashboard is very old, so they do not have much capability to be honest."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has some performance and reliability issues that need improvement."
"I assess the efficiency of SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM in improving our responses to sophisticated threats as not having improved a lot because, as I mentioned earlier, there are a few things that need improvement, including the false positive rate."
"Under the new system, it is not upgradable the way they say. When you try to do an upgrade, it doesn't really work unless you dump everything and start from scratch."
"One of the drawbacks of being so flexible is that it is also a fairly complicated software application to install, configure, and maintain."
"The reporting could be more robust. It can be a lot more granular and that will make it a lot more useful in comparison to how it is incorporated at the moment."
"The query capability in this solution needs improvement."
"I imagine we will have to develop our own reports soon, this seems to be more cumbersome."
"We used the support from SolarWinds Security Event Manager and they are knowledgeable but challenging to get in contact with them."
"I would like to be able to dig deeper into the visibility of events or incidents to determine whether they are malicious, such as by doing behavior analysis."
"It can be difficult for users who are inexperienced with the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is in the appropriate mid-range. It is not as expensive as some of the other solutions. It is also not cheap."
