We can easily deploy the agents, have great visibility, and log correlation
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable aspects of SentinelOne Singularity Complete are the ease of deployment with the Sentinel Agent and the enhanced visibility with Skylight, which provides correlation of logs and all endpoint data in a centralized location."
  • "We often experience interruptions to our investigations in SentinelOne Singularity Complete."

What is our primary use case?

I review the data logs from each SentinelOne agent using Skylight to develop queries. We have been using Star Alerts to create custom alerts based on those rules. We also partner with their Vigilance team for 24/7 monitoring.

We implemented SentinelOne Singularity Complete to gain widespread visibility into global markets and to facilitate easy agent deployment for EDR and XDR solutions.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete's interoperability with other SentinelOne and third-party applications is excellent. We recently used a proof of value to integrate some of our other email products, such as Proofpoint, with SentinelOne Singularity Complete. The ease of use has been amazing. Singularity Complete has been a great data ingestion platform, and we have already gained a wealth of data that we never had access to before.

Singularity Complete's ability to ingest and correlate data across our security solutions has been effective. We can see a significant number of events from our DNS logs, firewall logs, and email tenancy. Overall, it has performed very well thus far.

We ended up getting rid of QRadar and relied heavily on Singularity Complete. Singularity Complete allowed us to deploy the SentinelOne agent on a significant number of domain controllers and collect much more information than we could with QRadar alone. We needed to purchase additional licenses to quantify the data more effectively. However, Singularity Complete provided the same if not even more enrichment because it allowed us to see a lot of things about the transitioning of IP ranges, the ingressing of traffic from different IP ranges if they are open to the internet, and who is contacting those ranges via different endpoints. Overall, Singularity Complete has provided a significant improvement in data ingestion over our previous solution of QRadar.

Overall, we have seen a quicker response time with Singularity Complete. We are able to drill down into events in a much more granular way. This allows us to respond better, correlate the information that Singularity has gathered, and come up with a definitive answer to certain questions. Because of Singularity's enrichment of the data that we currently have, we are able to answer these questions more accurately, carefully, and with more specific timestamps. Since we have some of these deployed globally, it is very important for us to get the centralized time zones correct so that we know exactly when an event occurred.

Singularity Complete has helped us reduce the number of false positives. It provides us with a wealth of data enrichment, which allows us to distinguish between normal and abnormal events in our environment. This is important because we have billions of events happening every ten minutes across our many deployed endpoints. In the past, we would waste analyst time investigating alerts that turned out to be false positives. However, with Singularity Complete, we can now quickly identify which alerts are most likely to be legitimate and prioritize those for investigation. For example, if Singularity Complete tells us that a particular event has been seen a thousand times on one endpoint but only twenty times on another endpoint, we know that the twenty occurrences on the second endpoint are more likely to be abnormal and worth investigating.

Singularity Complete has helped free up our staff's time for other projects. With all the data enrichment that Singularity Complete has provided us, we are no longer chasing false positives. We are able to set our custom Star rules so that we receive the alerts that are most relevant to our organization, rather than broad alerts that may or may not be relevant. This allows us to focus our attention on what matters most and to investigate more accurate alerts. As a result, we are able to dedicate time to other projects. Before Singularity Complete, our analysts spend two to four weeks. With Singularity Complete in place, we've seen a reduction of two to three weeks, depending on the vendor. On average, analysts now spend three to ten days analyzing logs.

Singularity Complete substantially reduced our MTTD.

Our MTTR has been substantially reduced by Singularity Complete. We are now able to respond within the hour of receiving the alert.

Singularity Complete has helped our organization save costs by eliminating the need to replace equipment infested with malware. We can now detect, remediate, and roll back malware attacks as needed, thanks to the visibility that Singularity Complete provides. We can drill down into actual alerts, not just false positives, and eradicate any malware that may be infecting our systems.

Singularity Complete has reduced our organizational risk by providing us with much broader visibility into various endpoints deployed globally. This allows us to see what is normal in our environment, rather than reacting to what may not be normal.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable aspects of SentinelOne Singularity Complete are the ease of deployment with the Sentinel Agent and the enhanced visibility with Skylight, which provides correlation of logs and all endpoint data in a centralized location.

What needs improvement?

The ingestion and correlation of data would be improved by integrating with email security solutions such as Proofpoint or our email security solution. We do not yet have a marketplace integration, so we had to build it from scratch. As a result, it has been somewhat difficult for this particular use case, but the data is available and we are able to correlate it with users, not necessarily with endpoints, but we are making progress.

We often experience interruptions to our investigations in SentinelOne Singularity Complete. It would be helpful if we could resume our search query from where we left off, even if we lose internet connectivity or the platform is caching results. This would reduce our MTTR by eliminating the need to wait for the platform to load results again. We expect some load times due to the amount of data in our environment, but the current load times are too long and sometimes produce no results. We would like to see the overall response time of the platform improved.

One area for improvement would be per-user dashboarding. This may be a permissions issue, but we currently only have organization-wide dashboards. I think per-user dashboards would be beneficial because they would allow users to focus on their specific investigations. For example, when a user opens Singularity Complete, they can see a dashboard that is tailored to their current investigation.

868,787 professionals have used our research since 2012.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the stability of SentinelOne Singularity Complete as a seven out of ten. We have sometimes encountered problems where queries do not load or take an abnormally long time to load, especially when we are narrowing down the search range to a fourteen-day period, which is standard for us. We have also seen queries that run for twenty minutes or so and then log us out. Additionally, the time narrowing feature, or at least the custom time slots, where we can specify a date, such as September 18, may not work depending on how we write the query. We have had to get used to the custom syntax for the time stamps. Finally, we have sometimes seen data that does not update as often as it should.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have not experienced any problems with scalability. We are able to onboard new machines, and within a day or two, we see more data populate for those machines. So far, scaling has been very helpful for us. This is one of the reasons why we wanted to onboard with Singularity Complete, to get that visibility and to get it right away.

How are customer service and support?

Most of the technical support team members I have spoken to at the level two and level three levels of support have been very helpful and willing to share resources and documents from the help portal and knowledge base articles.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used IBM Security QRadar but it did not provide the level of data ingestion we required so we switched to SentinelOne Singularity Complete.

What was our ROI?

We have seen a return on investment from SentinelOne Singularity Complete, based on our reduced time to detect and respond to threats, as well as the overall risk reduction to the organization.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Our organization is very satisfied with SentinelOne Singularity Complete, especially compared to other options available. 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.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated CrowdStrike, but the way their deployment platform worked would not work for our organization.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete eight out of ten.

We just started using Ranger this week. So far, we've done small test use cases to see what our endpoints can communicate with. Ranger has identified a significant number of machines, including printers, other endpoints, and personal machines, which gives us a better understanding of our network security.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has come a long way. I believe it used to be called Power Query or even Data Set at one time. We're currently using the Skylight portion of Singularity Complete, which is a newer addition. Compared to where it was, Singularity Complete is now leaps and bounds ahead. It's the product we use when we need a lot of raw data and the ability to customize what we're looking for in our environment. The wealth of information that we get from every endpoint with the Singularity Complete agent installed allows us to create a large number of custom rules and alerts. This saves us a lot of time, especially for our analysts, who no longer have to respond to as many false positive alerts. 

We have a maintenance process in place for our custom rules and alerting. We have a dedicated team of members who are responsible for maintaining these aspects, but overall, we have not encountered any major issues that have impacted our team. A lot of this maintenance does occur outside of office hours.

With SentinelOne Singularity Complete, experiment and use it to its fullest potential, even if a mistake is made. It is a robust platform, so causing any serious damage is unlikely. Some specific features to play around with include custom roles, alerting, fields, power queries, search queries, data retention, and customized displays for the analysts. Tailoring the platform to specific needs will help get the most out of it. Singularity Complete collects a lot of data, so make sure to parse and categorize it in the most efficient way for the organization.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Drastically reduced alerts, highly interoperable, and unparalleled support
Pros and Cons
  • "I have been a Mac guy for twenty years, and the feature parity and the capabilities of a Macintosh agent are unparalleled in the industry. It is the first anti-malware and antivirus that does not make you feel that you bought the wrong processor. It is really good and lightweight."
  • "It seems like they are doing a lot with their automatic updates. They can maybe slow down the actual release cycle to make it easier to deploy the most recent and then do it using the live update. They can continue to work on that because trying to get agent changes through change management platforms and get approvals and testing can be quite difficult."

What is our primary use case?

It is our primary software platform for endpoint detection and response and vulnerabilities.

How has it helped my organization?

Our overall fleet posture and our security have increased a lot. It is much easier to get the agents out onto machines no matter what their operating system is, and it gives equitable reports back no matter what our platform is.

So far, it is one of the most interoperable applications and platforms that I have seen. There is the ease of bringing things in with the marketplace and the willingness of the company itself to work with you to help you address anything that they do not currently have.

Singularity Complete has helped free up our staff for other projects and tasks. Being new in the department for a year and a half, I am not the one to say how much time it has saved, but it has made my life easier by several hours a week. It gives me a straight line and a story for what I am looking for, so I can quickly identify whether something is to be expected and just a false positive or if it is actually a problem. Usually, when it is a problem, SentinelOne would have already mitigated it.

Singularity Complete has absolutely helped reduce alerts. It has drastically reduced alerts across the board. There is a 40% to 60% reduction. This reduction is because it is tunable. It is very tunable, and you can tweak it to meet your needs where you are not just stuck with what a manufacturer or a software developer said in terms of the alerting that you are going to get.

Singularity Complete has definitely helped reduce our organizational risk. Our risk score has gone down by 15% to 20%. We have better coverage and better insight into what is being covered.

Singularity Complete has probably saved us costs. I do not have enough insight into those budget numbers, but they keep adding things to it, so my guess is that it has saved us costs.

SentinelOne is one of our most important partners. The help that we get from their engineers, success team, and support really and truly has been unparalleled.

What is most valuable?

I am going to be a little biased because I am a Mac guy. I have been a Mac guy for twenty years, and the feature parity and the capabilities of a Macintosh agent are unparalleled in the industry. It is the first anti-malware and antivirus that does not make you feel that you bought the wrong processor. It is really good and lightweight. 

What needs improvement?

It seems like they are doing a lot with their automatic updates. They can maybe slow down the actual release cycle to make it easier to deploy the most recent and then do it using the live update. They can continue to work on that because trying to get agent changes through change management platforms and get approvals and testing can be quite difficult.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Singularity Complete for three years.

How are customer service and support?

I am blown away by their support. Every time I reach out to my customer service manager, they are returning questions after hours. You do not see that from a lot of companies. I would rate their support a 10 out of 10.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We were not officially using a similar solution. We had other products that we were using, but we did not have a full solution like SentinelOne. We were using multiple things. One of them was McAfee. We switched because they got bought by Trellix, and nobody knew what was going to happen with them. That was our most recent one and what I am most experienced with.

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in its initial deployment. I packaged the Jamf mobile device management installation package for our Macs. As far as security products go, it was the easiest one. The instructions were great. They were aligned with the vendor, which is something not common. Usually, it is like, "Here is what you have to do with your vendor." SentinelOne took that extra step, and it deployed right out of the box.

We have on-premises, public cloud, and private cloud deployment. Our cloud provider is primarily AWS, but we also have a little bit with Google and Mandiant, so we have a hybrid cloud. We are in the middle of a migration. The cloud is fairly new for us, and securing it has been a priority.

We have our deployment segregated on endpoint types, but our entire organization has it.

What about the implementation team?

We did it directly on our own. We rolled it out very quickly. We had been dealing with McAfee before it, so this was like a breath of fresh air.

We had two or three people working on it, so it went out very smoothly.

What was our ROI?

I believe we have seen an ROI. If nothing else, the investment that they are making, as analysts, engineers, and architects, we feel that we can get more done in SentinelOne and have a better stance overall for our organization. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

They evaluated a lot, but that was before I was in the department, so I do not know exactly which ones they did.

What other advice do I have?

I would advise listening to your sales engineers and letting them give you ideas because SentinelOne can do things that you have no idea about.

For next-generation platforms, it is at the top of what is a small stack right now, and that puts them ahead of a lot of other people.

I would rate it a 10 out of 10. It has been fantastic for us.

Protects endpoints, reasonably priced, and provides network and asset visibility
Pros and Cons
  • "The Ranger feature is valuable."
  • "The product must provide the ability to update applications from the SentinelOne Management Console."

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution for endpoint protection. Our clients are fintech companies, banks, and other organizations. The tool helps to pick up malicious files in the endpoint and protects the endpoint.

What is most valuable?

The Ranger feature is valuable. It helps us manage variable assets in our environment. The endpoints and nodes have SentinelOne engines on them.

What needs improvement?

The product must provide the ability to update applications from the SentinelOne Management Console. Using SentinelOne Management Console to patch applications will be quite useful.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for 3 years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate the solution's stability 7 out of 10. I've only had issues with the agents once. I reported it through the management console.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We use the solution in endpoints in different departments across the organization. The tool does not require maintenance. We can auto-update it from SentinelOne Management Console. We can push the auto-update agent from the console. I rate the solution's scalability 9 out of 10.

How are customer service and support?

The support personnel always want to share links instead of joining sessions. Getting them on sessions that would probably help resolve the situation is quite hard. They don't always want to do it. That's the only issue I have with them. When we raise a support case, they get back to us and point us to a link to a community guide or solution. They don't respond quickly if the problem requires us to join a virtual session.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is not complex. The deployment takes about 30 minutes. It is quite fast.

What was our ROI?

Our customers have seen an ROI on the product. It takes them 4 months to see ROI.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The tool's price is reasonable.

What other advice do I have?

We are partners and resellers. Singularity Complete’s interoperability with other SentinelOne solutions is fine. I've been able to push logs into our SIEM solution. We used our API. It was quite easy to do. The API token expires, so we have to regenerate and integrate it.

The solution’s ability to ingest and correlate across security solutions is quite fast. I don't have any issues with it. The Ranger functionality provides network and asset visibility. It's quite important. We can identify when endpoints that are not permitted or allowed on the network are active. It helps us isolate or deploy an agent on the endpoints. It's quite useful.

Ranger requires no new agents, hardware, or network changes. It is used for existing agents or endpoints. We can also identify neighboring endpoints that do not have agents. It's easy because we do not have to do any additional configurations. It leverages the current agents that we have deployed across endpoints. It's a good feature. We need not deploy another agent to work for Ranger.

A computer that doesn't have an agent is vulnerable to exploits. When Ranger helps to find the computer and network, it helps to prevent vulnerable devices from becoming compromised. We can identify and isolate the computer and deploy the agent on it. Singularity Complete does not reduce alerts.

The solution saves deployment time. We can push agents from the management console to the endpoint. It will save us time from physically going to the endpoint and installing the agent ourselves. The product reduces MTTD by 20%. The product reduces MTTR by 20%.

If an endpoint gets compromised, we will have to spend money. The tool generally helps us stay safe and protects computers. Thus, the solution reduces costs in the long run. Unprotected endpoints are risky endpoints. Singularity Complete has helped reduce our organizational risk.

Singularity Complete is quite a good tool. I'm quite confident in its ability to detect threats. It is good to have SentinelOne as a strategic security partner. People planning to use the tool must go for it. It's a good solution. It does what it claims.

Overall, I rate the product 8 out of 10.

Helps consolidate security solutions, reduce alerts, and free up staff time
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable features are asset tracking, patching, endpoint tagging, and policy updates."
  • "While SentinelOne Singularity Complete effectively visualizes security data across our solutions, requiring extensive manual effort for analysis limits its effectiveness. I would therefore rate it a seven out of ten."

What is our primary use case?

We initially implemented SentinelOne Singularity Complete to streamline application installation and patching across our extensive network of over a thousand systems. Managing individual systems has become increasingly challenging. While the platform provided initial visibility during the first attack, its usefulness in further investigation proved limited.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete boasts good interoperability.

It has helped consolidate some of our security solutions.

While the number of security alerts we receive has been successfully reduced, it has occasionally missed some threats. To address this, we have implemented Microsoft Defender alongside SentinelOne for additional protection. This layered approach has identified several malware incidents that SentinelOne, due to its limitations at the kernel level, did not detect.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has to an extent helped free up our staff time to focus on other tasks. In conjunction with Defender and Automox 60 to 70% of time has been saved.

Our mean time to detect has been successfully reduced by 70%.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has reduced our mean time to respond to threats it detects by providing informative feedback from malware reviews.

Our costs have been reduced because we use it daily.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has reduced our organization's risk by 80%.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features are asset tracking, patching, endpoint tagging, and policy updates.

What needs improvement?

While SentinelOne Singularity Complete effectively visualizes security data across our solutions, requiring extensive manual effort for analysis limits its effectiveness. I would therefore rate it a seven out of ten.

The pricing has room for improvement.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the stability of Singularity Complete eight out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I would rate the scalability of Singularity Complete a seven out of ten because of the integrations they have with third-party groups.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is quick to respond.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used Automox only for device management, not as a complete EDR.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete's price point is excessive compared to the functionality it provides.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete's longevity in the market may have created an inflated perception of its capabilities. While it was once considered a leading tool, comparisons with newer solutions like Automox, Cynet, and Fortinet reveal a lack of active use cases and functionalities offered by these competitors.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete eight out of ten.

I haven't observed significant innovation from SentinelOne Singularity Complete lately. Other than obtaining the database, I haven't noticed any new features or third-party integrations being introduced. This leads me to believe that there may not be a high level of ongoing innovation at the moment.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is deployed across thousands of instances and endpoints in different countries across multiple offices in Europe.

The only maintenance required is for updates to the endpoints.

While SentinelOne offers valuable security protection, it may not be sufficient as a standalone solution. Relying solely on Singularity Complete for a week-long absence might leave our system vulnerable to threats that other Endpoint Detection and Response solutions could identify.

Effectively prevents vulnerable devices from being compromised by isolating their network traffic
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature is the ability to drill down into individual sequences of processes."
  • "I encountered issues running Singularity Complete alongside other machine-learning tools."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Complete to detect and respond to "unknown unknowns," which are threats that haven't been previously identified. Our process involves monitoring for any unusual activity or deviations from typical program behavior. This includes analyzing parent and child processes to ensure they're loading correctly and not communicating with unauthorized external servers for remote execution.

For example, I encountered a phishing email that triggered an investigation. Fortunately, Singularity Complete offers an event log feature that allows me to analyze the incident. The tool's built-in Advanced Detection Analytics functionality helped me identify the downloaded file, and its access time, and track its interactions with applications, including attempted installations. Furthermore, Singularity Complete boasts a rollback capability, enabling me to revert to a safe state before the malicious activity occurred. I've utilized this feature successfully for several clients.

In addition to Singularity Complete's event log and rollback functions, it excels in antivirus detection. It effectively identified even sophisticated threats like the MimiKatz attack, which attempts to escalate user privileges in Linux and Windows systems. The tool's signature-based detection proved valuable in this instance.

How has it helped my organization?

Automating threat resolution has significantly improved our security operations. On average, I scan around forty million files, and the detection rate has been quite good.

The integration capabilities significantly enhance my existing security environment. It is a night and day difference compared to CylanceOPTICS by BlackBerry, which I used previously. While CylanceOPTICS was good, it relied on an algorithmic approach that flagged millions of potential threats, resulting in some false positives that needed manual analysis and training. SentinelOne, on the other hand, leverages eleven different engines simultaneously, including AI, machine learning, heuristics, and dynamic and static scans. This comprehensive approach offers robust protection, and if something falls through the cracks, it can consult a cloud database for the latest threat intelligence. Beyond its detection capabilities, SentinelOne offers exceptional visibility and control. I can easily investigate events at any time, like tracking who accessed Yahoo Finance within my organization across specific timeframes. The global tenancy feature empowers me to apply scans and threat signatures across different segments or even my entire network, ensuring consistent protection. The more I explore SentinelOne's features, the more impressed I am. It's incredibly powerful and versatile, offering a level of security and control that far surpasses my previous solution.

The interface is user-friendly, but there's a learning curve due to its extensive capabilities. Navigating for someone unfamiliar with threat hunting can be challenging as they may need to explore every option. However, some features have tooltips explaining their function when hovered over.

Accessing the knowledge base often requires a partnership with the company. While I lack this access, my distributor provided the comprehensive admin guide.

Ranger is an excellent feature for threat scanning. While alternative pen testing tools like Digital Defense exist, Ranger offers a unique advantage. It utilizes SentinelOne agents as probes within the network, allowing scans for irregular connections and identifying devices without the agent. This provides a comprehensive view of potential vulnerabilities. Imagine we decide to deny access to certain devices. In that case, every agent with those policies implemented, throughout our network, would individually isolate their traffic. This isolation prevents communication with the rogue devices. Consequently, even if one of those devices harbors a threat, it's unable to move laterally within the network. All other devices, recognizing it as unauthorized, will refuse to communicate with it.

Ranger requires no additional agents, hardware, or network modifications. It's essentially a built-in feature of the existing agent. Therefore, if we have the module, we already possess the capability. Activation can be done remotely through the cloud. So, when we decide to upgrade to Singularity Complete, they'll offer us the option of adding Ranger Plus. If we agree, a small additional fee, typically around a few dollars, will be applied per client. While it might seem a bit pricey, considering the value it provides, I believe it's worth the investment. It translates to roughly five dollars per client. For instance, with 50 machines, the monthly cost would be $250. In my experience, it hasn't significantly increased my expenses. There might be a slight increase, but I haven't noticed any substantial impact.

SentinelOne Ranger effectively prevents vulnerable devices from being compromised by isolating their network traffic. This feature is just one of many within the SentinelOne platform, which includes a built-in router and firewall integrated directly into the agent. This integration allows for seamless compatibility with Windows firewalls and offers granular control over network traffic. For example, Ranger enables modification of the firewall's IP stack, granting the ability to isolate specific traffic based on defined rules. This can be particularly useful for segregating vulnerable devices and preventing their communication. While not recommended for general use, advanced users can leverage SentinelOne's Singularly Complete feature on, for example, a VMware server to further isolate vulnerable devices. By running the client software on a separate network from the server, administrators can block unauthorized traffic based on Ranger's or the agent's identification. This effectively isolates the vulnerable device, even if it's compromised since it lacks any incoming network traffic. The server acts as a default gateway, filtering and controlling all incoming traffic.

Singularity Complete can help reduce alerts when a threat is identified and a solution is implemented. However, if a threat is known but no solution is available, using Singularity Complete might increase alerts. This is because suppressing alerts for a known threat without addressing it can create a false sense of security. While Singularity Complete allows manual blacklisting of threats, it cannot import large lists of threats from spreadsheets in one go, a feature available in CylanceOPTICS. This can be time-consuming for dealing with many threats. Overall, Singularity Complete has improved in its alert management, but it remains average compared to competitors. While detection is excellent, the alerting system still requires some refinement.

As a threat detector, I perform threat analysis to quickly identify threats. This has significantly reduced the time I spend on analysis, allowing Singularity Complete to free up about 30 percent of my time for other tasks.

Singularity Complete has achieved a 15 percent reduction in our mean time to detection. This efficiency gain is powered by eleven different detection engines running concurrently, ensuring comprehensive identification of potential threats.

Singularity Complete can reduce our mean time to respond by providing a clear path to the root cause of an attack. However, it doesn't always do this, and sometimes further investigation is necessary. Nevertheless, the tool significantly speeds up the process of identifying the root cause. For example, imagine the timeline indicates a suspicious file was executed. We can use Singularity Complete to find out when it last ran in our environment, even if it wasn't detected on the same day. If the threat appeared recently but the file ran a month ago, it suggests a potential Trojan was planted. This prompts further investigation into how the file arrived on the system. It could have been introduced through a USB drive, email attachment, copied file, or existing on a network share. While Singularity Complete won't explicitly state the location like "Share five," it will provide a hash that can often lead us to the network path.

Singularity Complete helps manage costs by eliminating the need for additional products with overlapping functionality. This saves us thousands of dollars per month on full scans, as our existing agent already possesses that capability. By deploying it across all organizational agents and enabling Ranger, we can conduct daily scans that provide comprehensive insights into our network activity.

Singularity Complete has helped reduce our organizational risk. However, it's important to remember that no system is foolproof. While I haven't experienced a security breach since installing it, I deliberately expose some machines to potential threats to test and observe new attack techniques. To strengthen our security posture, I've implemented additional measures. Some machines have less aggressive scan and detection settings to simulate vulnerabilities and observe attacker behavior. Additionally, our network is layered, with weaker points that serve as honeypots, while critical systems are protected by stricter security protocols. Beyond Singularity Complete, we utilize Palo Alto Networks and FortiGate firewalls for further protection. Ultimately, the decision to invest in additional scanning capabilities depends on the cost and our overall security strategy.

The most valuable feature is the ability to drill down into individual sequences of processes. This allows for building a highly detailed timeline of events, which is incredibly helpful. Additionally, the quality of the intelligence provided is excellent, making it difficult to choose between the two. The solution effectively reveals the attacker's tactics, including the mechanism or injection method used, how they exploit vulnerabilities and their use of decoys or misdirection tactics like dequay attacks. They may target one area initially, then shift focus to another, potentially planting seeds for future attacks. Overall, the timeline, intelligence, and overall capabilities of SentinelOne Singularity Complete are highly impressive.

Everything operates in real-time, allowing us to conduct in-depth analysis to uncover previously unknown threats. This capability stems from the use of dynamic libraries, which enable flexible code execution. The key concept here is the ability to pivot within an application. We can dissect and analyze this pivoting behavior, which is a rare feature among software solutions. Additionally, the system allows us to create our custom signatures. By identifying a threat and performing a global search, we can locate other instances of the same threat across our network and establish correlation points. Subsequently, we can create a signature based on a unique identifier (story ID) and integrate it into the initial login scan. This enables us to proactively detect and respond to any attacks that utilize that specific signature, making it a powerful tool for threat prevention.

What needs improvement?

The uninstallation process for the SentinelOne agent could be improved. While it is currently possible to uninstall through the console, it can be more complex if registry modifications are required. Streamlining this process, especially for users with console access, would be a valuable improvement.

I encountered issues running Singularity Complete alongside other machine-learning tools. The program uses hooks, which we configure through a whitelist to specify allowed functionalities for each app. However, I've observed compatibility problems with certain applications. This seems to stem from my limited access to information from those companies, hindering the creation of effective hooks.

For example, an external scanner's EXE file might not provide hooks for features like memory protection or script locking, potentially conflicting with SentinelOne's capabilities. In my experience, Singularity Complete doesn't always play well with others. While it coexists with Kaspersky's detection without issue, enterprise AI solutions employing algorithmic scans or pre/post-execution analysis can pose problems. We might need to modify the whitelist due to unavailable information about the application's memory range. Sharing this information could create vulnerabilities, so companies understandably keep it confidential. While I believe CylanceOPTICS could likely work with Singularity Complete, I haven't achieved it because I prioritize optimal protection. Disabling all CylanceOPTICS features and putting it in uninstall mode allows it to function but without intervention. In such cases, CylanceOPTICS detects threats first, possibly due to its higher application number in Windows. Similar behavior has been observed with other products.

Deep Instinct is another excellent detection software I use for remote devices. Expanding Singularity Complete's coverage to include IoT devices, Linux, servers, Docker, and mobile platforms (currently limited to Deep Instinct on my devices) would be highly beneficial. While Deep Instinct allows uploading and installation via email code, Singularity Complete currently lacks this functionality.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for over five years.

How are customer service and support?

I've only had one interaction with their tech support, but it was excellent. In situations where we're struggling with an investigation, I believe they have a guardian contract that could allow them to analyze our findings. Alternatively, if we're having difficulty detecting something, they can guide us through the process. However, my access to their tech department was limited to a single instance when I needed it. The impressive part is that they were willing to help me even though I was from a partner company. Such helpfulness is rare in many organizations, which often require expensive fees before offering similar assistance.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Previously, we used CylanceOPTICS by BlackBerry but transitioned to SentinelOne Singularity Complete due to its enhanced user-friendliness. The latter platform boasts comprehensive investigation capabilities, allowing us to delve deeper into the specifics of security incidents. We can examine parent-child relationships, delve into registry entries, and analyze memory ranges with ease. The feature set is truly extensive.

While CylanceOPTICS offered some of these functionalities, it could not identify pivoting areas within an attack. If I needed to investigate the pivot itself, CylanceOPTICS wouldn't suffice. SentinelOne proves invaluable in such situations. By examining registry entries or monitoring running processes, it helps us pinpoint the root cause, be it a Run DLL or a Windows EXE file disguised as innocuous activity. While CylanceOPTICS might catch the attack, it wouldn't reveal the underlying malicious intent. SentinelOne grants us this crucial level of insight, empowering us to respond effectively.

What other advice do I have?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete a nine out of ten. While the product itself is impressive, the price point is on the higher side. The only drawback is the limited support access. If they offered more affordable support options or provided unrestricted access to their knowledge base, I would easily give it a ten. Unfortunately, they haven't implemented this yet, as it would unlock more resources and expertise for users. Ultimately, it is what it is, but hopefully, they'll consider these improvements in the future. 

In my environment, I support a law firm and a music company while pursuing my research. Additionally, I use Intel hardware for testing purposes. My security strategy prioritizes avoiding complete system reimaging whenever possible. While I have encountered compatibility issues with specific SentinelOne versions and certain software, these were primarily during testing when I intentionally introduced malicious files. In general, the software has proven effective in preventing and mitigating threats.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has been excellent in its ability to be innovative.

While SentinelOne Singularity Complete is well-established software, the developers continuously strive to improve it. After all, no software ever truly reaches complete maturity. To remain effective, we must constantly adapt, improve, and refine ourselves in response to evolving threats and technologies.

I'd love to partner with SentinelOne right now, but as a small business, cost is a major concern. That's why I'm working with a distributor. They purchase larger license blocks, like five thousand or ten thousand, and because I was one of their early customers, they granted me access. While I have a partnership with them, it's not a formal one. To my knowledge, they require organizations to have at least one hundred or two hundred seats to be considered for a true partnership. I'm unsure if a program exists for smaller businesses, but based on what I've seen, access to their knowledge base, support team, etc., seems to be restricted to contracts with a minimum seat capacity of one hundred or two hundred.

Pros and Cons
  • "Tracking down which devices don't currently have SentinelOne on them is the most valuable feature of the product."
  • "The filtering features of the application management console could be improved."

What is our primary use case?

The solution provides endpoint protection for all our desktops, laptops, and servers. We also use it for some of the firewalls on the endpoints. We are also doing asset discovery for devices.

What is most valuable?

Tracking down which devices don't currently have SentinelOne on them is the most valuable feature of the product. So, we can push SentinelOne onto those devices.

What needs improvement?

Recently, the vendor took away my ability to create a ticket, mostly because we're in an MSSP environment. It has created a lot of extra hoops to jump through. I recently had a single sign-on issue on the console. I had to go through my MSSP. It took a month and a half to two months to get any resolution on it because my MSSP can't test our single sign-on. They don't have an account in that system. It has been very detrimental to effectively solving issues. I understand that the vendor does not want the clients of the clients submitting tickets. However, when I'm the one who's doing the majority of the work inside of SentinelOne, removing that from my ability has been very inconvenient.

The filtering features of the application management console could be improved. If I search for applications that shouldn't be installed on our endpoints, filtering is not the most straightforward process. Running through the search process takes a lot of time and effort. It would be hugely beneficial if the tool blacklists the applications that are not allowed to be installed. It would help with the management of unapproved applications or malicious applications that might be installed.

The automated agent upgrade system could use a little bit more fine-tuning. The maintenance windows must be a little bit more robust. I have to manually set what agent we're pushing each time we want to change instead of asking the tool to do N-1 for agent upgrades. It's automatic, but it's not quite automatic.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We've had fewer issues with stability recently, mostly because they made some changes to the actual agents. Shadow copies were filling up the drives and causing some crashes. However, the more recent agents have been much more stable, which has been wonderful.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The tool is very scalable. If we use all of our agents, it's very easy to ask the vendor to add more agents to our license. They get that taken care of, which is really nice. It's been very easy to change and modify groups as we need to.

Exclusions have been very straightforward. I would love to see the exclusions to look at the machines in a group and inform us when we have exclusions that are not found in the directories on the machines. It will help with the removal of redundant or unused exclusions. It will remove some of that risk.

How are customer service and support?

I don't have access to create tickets. The vendor removed the ability. I need to talk with our MSSP for support. They sometimes send us support articles that we already have access to. It takes an extra three to four days to get things resolved. In the most recent case, it was a month and a half.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We used Symantec Endpoint Protection before. We switched to SentinelOne Singularity Complete because Symantec Endpoint Protection was very old and was not being updated by Broadcom anymore. It was not as effective in terms of reporting. It was very clunky. So we were looking for something new and a little bit easier to work with than what we had at the time.

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was pretty straightforward from my perspective. We were able to take the package and deploy it, which made it really easy to get it on all of our endpoints. About ten people were involved in the deployment.

What about the implementation team?

Our MSSP helped us do the deployment. We used the asset management tool Ivanti to push out the agents.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing is packaged in with our MSSP. The cost of endpoint protection is fairly reasonable. Some of the other systems are a little expensive, but there's still value behind them. It's pretty close to what I would expect.

What other advice do I have?

We haven't stepped into other integrations quite yet. We're looking to explore it next year. We're trying to rebuild our security stack. The endpoint protection was one big step. We're planning on expanding a little bit more. I love that it is pretty straightforward to connect between different systems. It makes my life a little easier.

The solution’s ability to ingest and correlate across our security solutions is nice. We haven't done much of that with our systems yet, but having one source of truth to look at all those different pieces is hugely beneficial because we have a very small team. Anything that allows us to connect all the dots and pieces makes our lives really easy.

We're rebuilding our security stack from scratch. We do not have to get many other solutions because much information is built into Singularity Complete. We did a POC of the Ranger functionality for a little bit of time. Ranger's network and asset visibility are about the same as in Rogues.

The automation would be great if I didn't have to create a couple of extra security holes by opening up ports on our devices. So we've gone back to using just Rogues rather than Ranger because there isn't a lot of added value for that extra piece. I can take the whole list, export it, and take it to one of our other solutions and have the agent pushed from there.

It is nice that Ranger requires no new agents, hardware, or network changes for most of the part. If we're going to automate the installation process from another Ranger agent, it will require opening up some extra security holes. I don't love that part. I love that it discovers assets that don't have SentinelOne but could potentially have SentinelOne. It has been beneficial to us.

We like Ranger because it helps find the missing pieces. We must ensure that we're not going over on our licenses, but it helps us discover the devices in our network and how we can better protect the environment. It also gives us an inventory of devices. If they are vendor devices, we can go to our vendors and ask them why the devices have old software versions.

The product has done a much better job of giving us high-fidelity information. The system that we had before was old and antiquated and did not work well. We are getting better-quality alerts. The solution has helped free up our staff for other projects and tasks. All the information is in one place, and a lot of the system has been automated for us. The tool resolves threats almost instantaneously for us. It's hugely beneficial for a very small team.

The product has helped reduce our mean time to detect. It is a lot better at discovering threats and mitigating them quickly than our previous solution. However, I wouldn't say that it's perfect. The solution has helped reduce our organization’s mean time to respond. We have a managed security service provider that's doing a lot of the research for us, but it's been very helpful for us to have the information.

The tool has helped us with a couple of audits that we've had. It has also helped us with some of our cyber insurance because we're able to give much better reporting compared to our previous solution. The reporting is available on the fly rather than us trying to go through multiple systems to try and get some information from it.

The product is easy to use. It is very easy to navigate around. The vendor has added features that we've wanted. It has made our lives quite a bit easier. People who want to buy the product must evaluate their exclusions ahead of time and understand what level of exclusion they need for each system. We spent the most time reevaluating exclusions for each server system.

It was not too big of a deal for our desktops and laptops. However, for some of those bigger systems, especially with us being a healthcare organization, ensuring we weren't impacting the end-user experience was central. For example, we have EMR, which is electronic medical records. If we impact that, it affects patient care, which in turn can be not great.

It was a very big jump for our process to go from monitor-only mode to full-protect mode. We allowed things to just sit there for a very long time and understand the changes in our environment.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Helps reduce risk, reduces our MTTD, and saves our staff time
Pros and Cons
  • "The fact that SentinelOne is actively looking for threats and runs them against the hash on the Internet to determine if they are malicious or not, is what takes it to the next level compared to other antivirus products."
  • "SentinelOne needs to improve its endpoint deployment process."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Complete as an antivirus product. We also use SentinelOne's product called Vigilance, which monitors and takes action on active threats in the environment. So, basically, if someone clicks a file, Vigilance recognizes it and takes action for us, providing recommendations and remediation steps. This is a huge value add, and it's in addition to Singularity Complete's ability to monitor threats on devices from the cloud and offer remediation steps.

Our previous antivirus solution was not providing adequate protection. Threats are evolving and mutating rapidly, making it difficult for older antivirus solutions to keep up.

How has it helped my organization?

We have not experienced any interoperability issues. Initially, SentinelOne flagged some older software that was trying to run, but we could allow an exception to continue using the software. SentinelOne would still scan the software's location, but it would not block the processes from running. This flexibility is very useful.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete gives us peace of mind when it comes to day-to-day threats, knowing that nothing will get past them and they are always vigilant in detecting and responding to active threats on the network. It helps us sleep better at night.

It does not produce many alerts, but it has reduced the number of threats we have. Alerts are good, but only if they are not too frequent. When there is an active threat, the alert is clear about what is happening, who is affected, and the name of the machine. The alerts are also concise.

It allows our staff to focus on other more important items.

SentinelOne has helped reduce our MTTD and our MTTR because we pay for Vigilance.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete reduces our risk of major attacks, lowering costs.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has reduced our organizational risk.

What is most valuable?

The fact that SentinelOne is actively looking for threats and runs them against the hash on the Internet to determine if they are malicious or not, is what takes it to the next level compared to other antivirus products. SentinelOne is more than just an antivirus software, it provides insights into threats and shows the flow of attacks. It also allows us to set policies in the cloud so that any other system that is affected by the same bug or virus will be automatically killed, removed, and rolled back. Cloud automation is truly amazing.

What needs improvement?

I would like to see a privilege access management feature added to SentinelOne Singularity Complete. This would allow us to generate alerts when users try to run applications as administrators to approve or deny these requests and create policies within SentinelOne. I think this would be a great addition to the suite, as it would eliminate the need to purchase a PAM solution from another vendor. It would also give us greater visibility into user activity, as the SentinelOne portal is already very good.

SentinelOne needs to improve its endpoint deployment process. To illustrate, compared to ConnectWise, a remote management software that also has some security features. In ConnectWise, we can generate an installation package based on a group and deploy the software to all endpoints in that group without the need for a script.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the stability of Singularity Complete ten out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I would rate the scalability of Singularity Complete ten out of ten.

How are customer service and support?

We pay for Vigilance, which is a 24/7 instant response team. However, if we did not pay for Vigilance and I had a question for technical support, they would usually respond within a few hours or the next business day, depending on the issue. I feel that they ask too many irrelevant questions when we are generating a ticket, but I understand why they do it.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We were using Carbon Black before, but SentinelOne Singularity Complete is much easier to use. The portal is more intuitive, the email alerts are more intuitive, and everything about it is easier on the eyes. It has a simpler view. Their cost was comparable to Carbon Black, but the solution was much better.

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was moderate. It would be much better if SentinelOne had a better way to induct the site token into the installation process, rather than requiring users to create a script.

The deployment took a couple of weeks to complete and required two people. We captured 80 percent of the endpoints within the first day, and then it took a couple of weeks to catch the more subtle ones.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Nothing good is cheap, and SentinelOne is no exception. However, as a market leader with a great product, they don't have to be so timid with their pricing. I would like to see lower prices, but I understand why they charge what they do. It is what it is when it comes to SentinelOne Singularity Complete.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete nine out of ten.

I would focus more on how the product is delivered and maintained. Maintenance of any type of antivirus product is always an important question when it comes to how to maintain this product and how to use it without dedicating a lot of resources to it. SentinelOne has just introduced an automatic upgrade feature for their client agent that allows us to set a policy to always keep our agents on the general mobility version. This will automatically upgrade our agents for us, saving IT a lot of time. Before, we had to manually upgrade our agents from the cloud, but now this process is fully automated. This is a huge value-added feature, and the agent is not very disruptive.

We have SentinelOne Singularity Complete deployed on our Windows servers across the country. Around 15 people are using the solution.

We must constantly monitor the portal to review items that Singularity Complete has blocked. Occasionally, we must decide whether to allow or deny access. We must definitely stay engaged with the portal, as it is not a fully hands-off solution. This is appropriate, as some interaction is necessary. However, the level of interaction required does not bother me.

If I were to recommend SentinelOne Singularity Complete to anyone else, I would definitely help them understand these types of products. People who are looking at cloud antivirus are usually coming from on-prem antivirus, so they may be shocked by the price. I would help them understand that yes, cloud antivirus products cost more than normal antivirus, but they offer peace of mind. Once they understand this, they can start to appreciate the value of the product.

Ransomware recovery enhances security while product support needs improvement
Pros and Cons
  • "The platform's ability to easily integrate with various other platforms is highly valuable."
  • "The compatibility with new legacy systems should be enhanced as other EDR products support these systems, which Singularity does not."

What is our primary use case?

We use Singularity Complete for end-to-end endpoint security protection, including EDR integrated with other platforms for XDR. The ransomware rollback feature of Singularity is a key reason for its use. 

It is primarily for integration with SIEM to have a single pane of view, integration with web security for sharing insights, and automation of remediation tasks. Additionally, network discovery from the Singularity platform is used to identify rogue devices quickly.

How has it helped my organization?

Visibility is greatly improved with Singularity Complete as it allows visibility into endpoint devices and the processes running on them. 

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is the ransomware recovery and rollback feature. The platform's ability to easily integrate with various other platforms is also highly valuable.

It also enables integration with other technologies, saving costs associated with having point solutions. The integrated system allows for significant automation, reducing the time and effort needed for management.

The mean time to response has reduced from hours to minutes due to integrated automation systems.

What needs improvement?

Improvement is needed in terms of product support. The compatibility with new legacy systems should be enhanced as other EDR products support these systems, which Singularity does not.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been working with Singularity Complete for three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Singularity is a very mature product that supports most assets available in any enterprise environment. It runs seamlessly without challenges.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Singularity Complete is suitable for large and mid-scale enterprises.

How are customer service and support?

Technical support could be better. I would rate it around six on a scale of one to ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

CrowdStrike is a competitor. Singularity is better because it supports the ransomware rollback feature.

How was the initial setup?

The setup process is simple and user-friendly.

What about the implementation team?

Initially, anyone can deploy out of the box. When tuning aligned with the environment is required, assistance from a system integrator is recommended.

What was our ROI?

Integration helps save costs by reducing the need for point solutions.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Pricing is not pocket-friendly. It can be difficult for small-scale companies.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

SentinelOne's main competitor in the market is CrowdStrike. However, Singularity Complete is preferred thanks to its ransomware rollback feature.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
