SentinelOne Singularity Complete Reviews

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.

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.

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.

I have been using the solution for two years.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

We have deployed SentinelOne Singularity Complete on all of our internal employee workstations. It is our endpoint solution for extended detection and response and all of the components within that scope.

We implemented SentinelOne Singularity Complete to help us address our cybersecurity challenges, mitigate threats to our machines and organization, and protect our data.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete integrates well with other third-party solutions, such as Palo Alto Networks, which we use for VPNs, and Zscaler, which we use for content filtering. The fact that it is not an invasive program is great. Therefore, staying in alignment with what SentinelOne is currently doing with the platform is something I would definitely recommend. Something to avoid when choosing an endpoint protection solution is resource consumption. People develop a bad reputation for a product when they detect it impeding their workflow. So, as long as SentinelOne can avoid this, they are on the right track.

It ingests and correlates data across all of our security solutions. It is a modern solution that I am extremely satisfied with.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us consolidate our security solutions. It is an extended detection and response solution that provides us with detection and response capabilities, as well as heuristic-based protection. It is a very modern endpoint protection solution. I think it is very competitive with other software such as Trend Micro.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is a modern endpoint protection solution that addresses the cybersecurity needs of the organization realistically and from a compliance perspective. Since I joined the team a year ago, I have seen the benefits.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete reduces the number of alerts because it is an easy-to-manage solution without thousands of data sources. When we do receive alerts, Singularity Complete provides concise and actionable information.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is a manageable solution that scales and does not require a dedicated person to handle it.

I am satisfied with SentinelOne Singularity Completes MTTD.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete helps reduce the MTTR because it provides actionable steps when something is detected. It also helped us reduce our organizational risk. It uses modern techniques to identify threat actors and helps us maintain compliance. As a large international company involved in governance, it is important to us that Singularity Complete reduces our organizational risk. 

SentinelOne Singularity Complete does not consume many resources compared to the competition, like McAfee. The external drive scanning is great.

I am not a fan of the UI and feel it has room for improvement.

Heuristic analysis can always be improved. Many companies need to work on this. So, I think the sooner SentinelOne, for example, can get ahead of the curve on that, the sooner we can count on it as a realistic enterprise solution.

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for over one year.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is one of the most stable solutions we have in our stack.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is scalable.

The few times I have used the technical support it has been a good experience.

Positive

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete eight out of ten.

Although we can use a multifaceted approach with different products, this has both advantages and disadvantages. For example, if one product fails, the entire system does not. However, it would be an advantage if SentinelOne offered other tools, such as VPN and encryption. SentinelOne Singularity Complete is a cutting-edge, modern solution that offers a multifaceted approach to XDR. It is not outdated like many other programs. As long as SentinelOne continues to innovate and evolve in the cybersecurity landscape, it will remain a leading solution.

One of the things that really impressed me about SentinelOne Singularity Complete compared to other solutions was their commitment to taking cybersecurity practitioners seriously. This is anecdotal, as I met some of the most technical professionals working at their booth at Black Hat, while many other booths were staffed by sales representatives. As a practitioner, the fact that I can't ask many sales representatives very technical questions is not a good reflection on the company. SentinelOne was different. I was able to have very technical discussions with their staff, which shows that they take their approach very seriously.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is at the forefront of cybersecurity protection. I consider it a great solution option, and I strongly recommend comparing it to other offerings. I believe it will stand up well against the competition.

We are a Fortune 500 company, and SentinelOne Singularity Complete is deployed on tens of thousands of endpoints.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is a set-and-forget solution when it comes to maintenance.

I have good impressions of SentinelOne as a strategic security partner.

Organizations should research any solution before implementing it. The price of one product may make sense for some organizations but not others. Apply the same due diligence to any solution that will affect the organization's overall security posture.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for three years.

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

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

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.

Positive

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.

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.

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.

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.

We are a partner of SentinelOne and we provide demo proofs of concept to customers. Most of our customers use traditional antivirus software, which does not have the capability to perform zero-day analysis, block ransomware, or block zero-day attacks. SentinelOne, on the other hand, is an endpoint detection and response and endpoint protection platform solution, which means that it has the capability to block zero-day attacks, ransomware, and machine learning-based threats. SentinelOne Singularity Complete does not have antivirus technology, but rather it is an anti-malware solution.

Our customers switched to Singularity Complete primarily for security and ease of use. It is easy to install, troubleshoot, and upgrade. Singularity Complete is purely cloud-based for our customers.

Singularity Completes' interoperability is straightforward. They have easy API integrations with all major integration platforms, so it's simple. There are no complications.

SentinelOne can ingest and correlate data well. It has its own EDR and XDR technologies, so it provides threat defense, detection, and monitoring. The models work like a SIEM for endpoints, so customers can correlate logs, identify patterns, and visualize everything. It is very visible.

I deployed Ranger for one of our customers with a large infrastructure. Ranger provides clear network and asset visibility.

Singularity Complete was very helpful to our customers during the COVID-19 pandemic because many of their employees were working from home. When employees work from home, they often need to open ports from outside to active networks, which can make those networks more vulnerable to ransomware attacks. One of my customers had a traditional antivirus running, but it was unable to detect the ransomware. I deployed Singularity Complete to understand the attack pattern and block it. The customer was so happy with SentinelOne Singularity Complete that they renewed their subscription for four years in a row.

Singularity Complete increases the number of true positive alerts by detecting attacks that antivirus software misses.

Singularity Complete helps save time.

Singularity Complete has reduced the MTTD by ten percent.

Singularity Complete has reduced the MTTR. Where a traditional antivirus may take ten minutes, Singularity Complete takes two to three minutes.

Singularity Complete helps reduce organizational risk.

The anti-ransomware capability to analyze the threats and user-friendliness are the most valuable features.

When comparing SentinelOne to CrowdStrike, I find that CrowdStrike has more comprehensive vulnerability assessment tools. It offers a variety of Falcon tools, including deep inspection, while Singularity Complete does not have all of these features. It still sticks to EDR or EDP. Therefore, I need improvements to match the features that CrowdStrike offers, such as a higher level of vulnerability assessment and a better understanding of the IOCs in our system so that we can apply fixes.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete needs improvement on Linux machines. We identified a few issues with most of our Linux customers' machines. Specifically, the application is not working properly after installation.

A major area of Singularity Complete that needs improvement is the restart option. We do not need a restart after installing a CrowdStrike agent. So for organizations that are running 24/7 and can't restart their machines, we do not recommend SentinelOne Singularity Complete.

I have been working with SentinelOne Singularity Complete for five years.

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

Singularity Complete can scale easily. 

Overall the technical support is good but we sometimes have difficulty getting a hold of them.

Positive

We previously used CrowdStrike Falcon, but SentinelOne Singularity Complete is easier to deploy. CrowdStrike Falcon has many features and policies that need to be configured, while Singularity Complete is straightforward. It has a single policy and is very easy to deploy compared to CrowdStrike Falcon. However, CrowdStrike Falcon offers more features.

The initial deployment is straightforward. We receive a URL extension from the company and we set the policies and install the agent.

I deploy the solution for POCs using 20 machines. We demonstrate the deployment methods, and the customer completes the rest of the process. We typically complete this task in two days. For larger organizations that have a lot of departments and branches, the deployment can take up to 15 days.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is cheaper than CrowdStrike but more expensive than any traditional anti-virus solution.

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete eight out of ten.

The Ranger functionality is not that important because it is optional, and most customers already have a solution for understanding their environment.

I would say that 90 percent of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is a quality product with only ten percent with room for improvement.

SentinelOne will not sell to organizations with fewer than 100 endpoints. Most of our clients are mid- to enterprise-level.

Maintenance is required, but the SentinelOne team maintains the cloud deployments, so we don't need to worry about it. The endpoint agents must be upgraded whenever an upgrade is available or when we have to fine-tune policies for customers to reduce false positives. One IT support person can handle any maintenance for the endpoints.

I suggest always doing a POC. If the customer is currently using traditional antivirus technology, they may not understand EDD, EPP, or EDR technology. Therefore, I always recommend a POC to help the customer understand these technologies. Customers should never implement an endpoint solution without a POC, because we don't know what endpoints are running on their system or how compatible the new solution will be with other endpoints. For example, if we are implementing a DLP solution, we should ask for a POC with all available agents, or we can deploy a test machine to understand the solution before implementing it in production.

We use SentinelOne Singularity Complete to provide endpoint protection for all endpoint servers and Kubernetes clusters in our environments where SentinelOne is supported. We also use SentinelOne to help manage our systems and provide visibility into the assets in our environment.

We have found that Singularity Complete integrates well with our existing SIEM solution, Splunk, and some of our other system management tools, such as Okta and Armis. We are also looking forward to the additional future integrations that are planned.

I appreciate Singularity Complete's ability to ingest and correlate data across our security solutions. I use this feature quite often, either to perform deep visibility searches to correlate data across different sources if I have specific concerns about security events, or even to track running or operational issues as well. Singularity is not only a security product but it can also be used for troubleshooting non-security and related issues on devices.

Compared to the previous EDR solution, Cylance Protect, we had substantially fewer false positives when we implemented Singularity Complete.

Singularity Complete has reduced our MTTD.

Singularity Complete has reduced our MTTR somewhat compared to our previous EDR solution.

Singularity Complete has reduced our organizational risk by 20 percent, specifically the risk profile associated with malicious activities on protected devices.

The most valuable features, of course, are the protection and support for the devices. In addition to that, the ability to see the last log-on dates for time-tracking purposes has been helpful. The most useful feature of all is deep visibility. I think it was recently renamed to something else, but it is the ability to run IOC queries across all devices and gain information to look at any kind of potential events that might occur.

We have had cases where Singularity Complete has caused applications to malfunction. The existing interoperability rules have not necessarily been sufficient to resolve those conflicts. SentinelOne needs to work on interoperability with other systems and on the interoperability rule set.

I have been working with SentinelOne Singularity Complete for one year.

We have not had any stability issues in our environment with Singularity Complete.

Singularity Complete is scalable.

With any support service, it depends on the person we get on the line. Some are better than others. But overall, I find the technical support team to be good, comparable to other good technical support teams I've seen from other vendors.

Positive

We implemented SentinelOne Singularity Complete to move away from a legacy EDR platform, Cylance Protect, that did not perform as well as a modern EDR solution should.

The initial deployment was complex due to the complex environment. I would agree that deploying to a single device would be straightforward, but we have a manufacturing environment that requires bespoke applications, which makes any migration complex.

Fifteen people were required for the deployment.

The implementation was completed in-house.

The pricing and licensing make sense. We worked with a third party to help us with licensing, and the licensing we obtained through that process was ultimately reasonable and comparable to other products on the market.

We evaluated Microsoft Defender, CrowdStrike, and Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks.

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete ten out of ten.

We are considering the possibility of using SentinelOne to consolidate some of our security solutions, but have not moved in that direction just yet.

Singularity Complete has not yet saved our staff time because it takes more time to deploy and migrate to the point where we have time savings. I think it will in the next couple of years.

We see a lot of innovation from SentinelOne. They are acquiring many other products that are integrating with the platform we looked to adopt in the next couple of years if it works out well. New features and functionalities are also regularly released. So, in terms of innovation, that's one of the reasons we chose SentinelOne Singularity Complete in the first place.

Singularity Complete is a mature product that can sufficiently protect our assets. I would say that the core features associated with that functionality are in place and work well.

Maintenance is relatively low, but systems need regular updates, and we need to troubleshoot all of them. So, there is some work involved.

SentinelOne is a good strategic security partner. We appreciate the direction of their product roadmap and its current coverage. One area where they could improve is in having their EDR support teams reach out to us. We don't believe we have an EDR or anything similar setup, but it would be helpful if they offered quarterly or semi-annual meetings to check in, see how we're doing, and give us an opportunity to provide feedback.

People researching Singularity Complete should first understand their environment and deployment goals to ensure compatibility between their existing solutions and the new product. They should also evaluate multiple competitors before making a commitment.

The primary use case for us is to use the lightweight SentinelOne agent on our endpoints. Our previous vendor's agent was heavier, which caused performance issues when scanning our systems. We were impressed with how lightweight the SentinelOne agent is and how few resources it consumes. We also use it for some of our infrastructure, which includes machines with limited resources. We wanted to find a solution that would not impact the performance of these machines.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has streamlined the mitigation process and the time it takes to analyze and understand whether I have a true positive or a false positive. This has definitely saved me some time. The rollback feature is also a nice addition. Previously, our old solution would link out to services like VirusTotal, but it was difficult to follow these links to determine if an alert was a true positive or a false positive. For example, an alert might be labeled as a potentially unwanted application, which might not be as critical as a true positive. SentinelOne has made it easier to determine the severity of an alert. I have also noticed that SentinelOne has cut down on the number of false alerts. Our old solution would alert us to things like Chrome browser updates, which would download and make registry changes. With SentinelOne I have only encountered one alert that I didn't need to worry about.

We have definitely saved a lot of time. We had to spend some time setting up the environment correctly, scaling up the protections, and setting any exemptions. After that, the most I need to do is troubleshoot issues that are not related to SentinelOne, such as removing the SentinelOne agent if I need to troubleshoot another issue on an end-user device. Application updates, such as when a new installer is released, are the only other times I need to access SentinelOne, besides when I need to review an incident.

It has helped us reduce our MTTD. We are notified of threats quickly, and being able to see the threat on our dashboard has simplified the process. Once a threat is identified and I am on the screen, I can click once to view the visibility and see if the threat is anywhere else on our network. This is fantastic.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us reduce our MTTR.

Although it is difficult to quantify the direct financial savings of SentinelOne Singularity Complete, we have saved money indirectly through time saved.

Visibility is one of the most valuable features of SentinelOne Singularity Complete. It does not directly replace a dedicated SIM solution, but it works well for our environment and gives us the visibility into our systems that we need.

I appreciate that it is easy to review incidents that have been detected by the behavioral AI or the SentinelOne Cloud. From the notification we can click into the incident to start reviewing, it is just a few clicks. I have all the data in a single pane, and I can pivot to other sources of information, such as VirusTotal, with a single click. I can also hunt for the incident on the network with a single click. This makes things much easier and saves me time from having to review logs.

One way to improve and get additional benefits would be for SentinelOne to host the updated installer files for us, rather than us having to download and host them ourselves. This could be done in cloud storage or through our mobile device management platform. When they release a new package, whether it's an early release or a general release, I believe they could provide more value by hosting those packages directly. Currently, when they release a new package, I get notified, which is great. However, I then have to go to the portal, download the package, and replace the package that we have posted on our own cloud storage. This is time-consuming. If they could simply provide me with a link to the latest general release installer, that would be fantastic. Even if the link changes, I would only need to change the URL in our cloud storage. This would save me a lot of time.

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for five months.

I keep the central tab open in my browser. If I click Sign in instead of being signed in, the page refreshes, and I have to sign in again. I think this was just a session token expiring. I have not experienced any stability issues with SentinelOne Singularity Complete, such as crashing or downtime.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is scalable to our infrastructure and endpoints. Once we figured out the deployment hurdle for Windows and Mac, we were able to push it out to all of our endpoints without any problems. I can break out devices into different sites and groups, and some of those groups can be dynamic. For example, if I'm looking for a Mac computer versus a Windows computer, I can just click on the group and see all of them there. I can also add tags for anything, such as the OS version or if the person might be a specific risk. These are non-relational attributes and values that we can set, so we can define whatever schema we want. It's fantastic.

The technical support team was quick to answer my question and their answer was precise. I didn't have to go back and forth with them or explain things multiple times. They gave me exactly what I needed.

Positive

We previously used BitDefender and Malwarebytes. SentinelOne Singularity Complete was priced similarly, and we felt that it had better support. When we had a support issue, it was answered and resolved quickly. Additionally, the visibility and ability to traverse the logs of all the other devices in our network were invaluable. This allowed us to see if a threat might be present elsewhere in our network. This is what ultimately led us to choose the complete solution over the other SKUs that they offer.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has a lightweight agent. Additionally, some of our servers are running older operating systems. The agents from our previous vendor did not work well with these older systems. I specifically looked for a new solution that would not be a watered-down solution and would function across our legacy architectures as well as our current modern setup.

Another benefit of the Singularity Complete solution is the increased visibility it provides. We are able to collect data on endpoints that are connecting to specific IP addresses or installing specific files with similar hashes. This allows us to see how far a threat has propagated through the network or if anyone else has it installed. This is something that we could not do with our previous solution.

We use Windows and Mac computers. Deploying SentinelOne on Windows was fairly easy. We were able to do it through our remote management solution. The installation was straightforward and simple. The most difficult part of the process was that the device had to reboot in order for SentinelOne to connect to the visibility service and bring everything online.

Deploying SentinelOne on Mac was a bit different. This is primarily due to the way the macOS operating system works. We need to grant specific privacy permissions to applications in order for them to have full disk access or screen recording capabilities. We found that if we installed SentinelOne on the user profile of a Mac computer, the user's administrator could remove it. This is not ideal, so we had to go back to the drawing board and deploy SentinelOne through our MDM solution.

The biggest headache was that, in order to deploy SentinelOne through MDM so that users did not have to grant privileges to the application, we needed to create a Privacy Preferences Policy Control profile with the specific permissions granted for the SentinelOne bundle ID. We then pushed this profile out to all users. Once we did this, the installation was seamless.

A few colleagues and I completed the implementation in-house.

We have seen a return on investment in the form of time savings. We used to spend more time on incidents, but now we can quickly triage them and move on to other things. This has freed up our time so that we can focus on more important tasks.

We did receive a competitive price for SentinelOne Singularity Complete. However, I believe the retail pricing, or MSRP, is a bit high. I hope we can get the same competitive pricing through our reseller when it comes time to renew. I still believe there are benefits to the solution, even if we had to pay the list price. However, I think they could be more competitive with their upfront pricing.

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete eight out of ten. The room for improvement is to add some additional features, such as Ranger, which they sell separately. I see a lot of value in Ranger, and I wish it was included with the complete purchase.

We do not have any direct plugins for SentinelOne Singularity Complete, such as Ranger. Ranger is an add-on that I believe can be purchased through SentinelOne to expand our visibility. We do not have that, and I wish it was included because there are quite a few nice features that I would hope to see eventually included or trickled down to the complete solution. I feel like those are just a few other cherries on top that would really put this package over the top. One of the struggles I have in a Mac environment is creating a custom application creating the Privacy Preferences Policy Control profile and setting everything correctly so that users do not need to interact with the application when it is pushed to them. SentinelOne has clear documentation and works with a few MDM vendors that have documentation already published. So when we were running a POC for a few of these vendors, it was very easy to get that set up, which is not something I can say for other applications.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is an intuitive product. I found the getting started guide and active preparation checklist to be very helpful. The checklist is well-documented and comprehensive, and it covers everything from the initial purchase to GoLive. The support team was also able to answer any questions I had about navigating the application. The interface is mature and user-friendly. I have not encountered any major issues so far. Overall, I am very happy with SentinelOne Singularity Complete.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is definitely valuable as a strategic security partner. SentinelOne Singularity Complete was our top choice, and we are happy with it. I would definitely recommend it to my colleagues if they were looking for a solution for their company.

Maintenance is only required when the vendor releases a new general access version of the installer. I need to download the new version, upload it to our servers, and make sure it deploys successfully to our machines. This is the extent of my maintenance responsibilities. I do not need to directly interact with the application itself.

I would recommend that people evaluating SentinelOne Singularity Complete try it out to see if it is right for their environment. SentinelOne offers a trial that can be set up for their environment. When an organization purchases the product, they will flip a switch and there is no need to set anything else up. This was beneficial for us because we did not have to waste time setting up and deploying the product to a few devices in our environment only to have to do it again after we purchased it. I would also recommend engaging with the resources that SentinelOne provides to get a good understanding of the product. We can tweak the settings and see how it responds to different threats. If organizations have any specific needs, they can talk to an engineer during the trial. This was helpful for us because the engineer was able to make changes to the settings to meet our needs. Overall, I would recommend taking a look at SentinelOne Singularity Complete. I was initially overwhelmed by the different SKU offerings, but I was able to work with sales to find the best package for our needs. The SentinelOne team has been very helpful.

We use Singularity to protect our staff computers, the hospital network, and virtual machine servers. Singularity helps us ensure our environment is fully protected in light of the increasing cyberattacks hospitals face.  

Singularity's Ranger feature provides deep visibility. We implemented some rules, and Ranger scans the system based on the criteria we set. Ranger's ability to scan without agents or network changes is crucial because we want to minimize the number of changes needed on end-user machines. It's an excellent tool for minimizing risk and detecting threats before they disrupt our network.

The solution has decreased the number of alerts we see. We get notifications and email alerts that some user machines are compromised. Singularity does a good job with bad files and data, allowing us to tackle those threats before they become bigger problems.

Singularity has helped free up staff time. For example, it automatically updates virus definitions so we don't need to do that work manually. Singularity pulls the latest virus definitions on its own. It actively monitors our machines without us having to do anything.

It has reduced our mean time to detect by about 70 percent. Singularity has reduced the mean time to respond by roughly 90 percent because we can choose to respond to a threat by rolling back, deleting, or quarantining it. It greatly reduces our overall risk by about 30 percent. 

Singularity's rollback feature is one of the primary reasons we bought the product. If there's an attack on the machine, the system can automatically roll back the data and the hard drive of the machine that was attacked.

The interoperability is solid. We've integrated Google Authenticator with SentinelOne for multifactor authentication, so it works well. We also use Citrix multifactor authentication. It works well with our other systems. 

The performance could be better. Singularity lags a bit, and it's a resource-hungry application, so it takes a while to load. 

I have used Singularity for about a year.

I rate SentinelOne Singularity seven out of 10 for stability. The stability and performance could be better. 

Singularity is highly scalable. We can easily cover all our machines with it. 

I rate SentinelOne's support seven out of 10. SentinelOne's customer service isn't that great. There's only so much they can do before they just tell you to look at the documentation.

Neutral

The deployment was straightforward. We worked with a trainer and implementation specialist over at Sentinel. Four people from our team and one from the vendor were involved. After installation, the primary maintenance is ensuring the agents are deployed to the end-user machines. 

Singularity is fairly priced. 

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete eight out of 10. It's a high-quality product compared to what else is on the market. When implementing Singularity, it helps to organize your machines into groups like laptops, servers, and desktops and then push the agent to those groups separately.

One of the companies we conduct business with received ransomware. As a result, we sought to enhance our security posture, commencing with our employees. SentinelOne Singularity Complete was procured to gain visibility into our company's resources. We aimed to possess the capability to detect whether our users were encountering malware, viruses, or incidents.

We used to employ Norton antivirus on all our assigned desktops and laptops. Unfortunately, we had no visibility in this setup. Consequently, if a user were to acquire a virus or download malware or anything suspicious, we wouldn't be informed. While users do receive prompts indicating suspicious activities, they might not always report them. Hence, gaining visibility became our top priority. I required a solution that would allow me to monitor such activities. For example, if a user were to download something malicious or suspicious unrelated to their daily tasks, or even if they were to download malware, I needed immediate visibility. This would enable me to promptly quarantine the threat, resolve the issue on the affected device, and collaborate with the respective employee. The goal was to raise awareness about their downloads, educate them on safe practices, and enhance their overall understanding of their actions. SentinelOne Singularity Complete helps address our requirements.

The primary advantage of SentinelOne Singularity Complete for our organization is enhanced visibility. The secondary benefit is my belief in the product having a much stronger support system. This implies that no one in the company has the necessary resources to identify and address malware effectively, resulting in their product not being up to par in terms of providing comprehensive protection for end users. While our previous endpoint management, Norton, was good, it fell short of greatness. I strongly feel that no other product truly excels. I've gone through numerous reviews, made comparisons with alternative solutions, and utilized other options. This wasn't just a slight improvement in polish; it genuinely ensures the safeguarding of end users and the entire company.

I haven't received many alerts. Ironically, of the alerts that I have received, most were originating from my device. As I am the technology leader for the organization, there were certain tools on my laptop that were flagged almost immediately upon installing the agent. So, in an ironic twist, I was flagged. However, it's actually quite positive that my end users haven't engaged in any activities that could be deemed malicious or suspicious. I receive emails and reports promptly, so I'm genuinely surprised that the tool behaves this way. Interestingly, when it did flag certain processes and software on my devices, they were actually legitimate pieces of software that I regularly use. Nonetheless, I'm pleased that SentinelOne Singularity Complete was able to promptly detect these instances.

I am the sole technical person in the company, and the solution has enabled me to concentrate more on enhancing the organization's security posture. This foundation and framework have paved the way for me to pursue additional projects in the field of security for our organization.

The mean time to detect is nearly real-time. When I identified potential threats, the response was nearly instantaneous after installing the agent and running the initial scan. It promptly identified all issues. I received an immediate notification to quarantine those processes and applications. This allowed me to conduct a more in-depth investigation and confirm that these processes should not be present on the device.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has unquestionably aided in diminishing our organizational risk. The solution significantly reduces overall risk, just as it claims. I have examined numerous white papers and engaged in discussions with numerous individuals within the organization to establish a sense of confidence in recognizing SentinelOne as a market leader. Their enduring presence is apparent, coupled with their commitment to thorough research, which is consistently integrated into their products to ensure their relevance and continued usefulness for consumers.

The visibility component is the most valuable feature. Having the capability to delve into the specific resources that the devices are actively using provides us with the breadth and visibility that we seek. Additionally, being able to accurately track our users' activities, such as identifying when they are downloading PDF attachments, enables us to promptly detect any potential issues.

I would have liked the dashboard to be more user-friendly. I often have to navigate through several menus to locate exactly what I'm searching for. I had difficulty finding the site token required for device installation or agent installation on devices. It actually took me quite a while to locate these menus. Instead of having them at the top after selecting from the left-hand side, they list the sub-menus at the top. This forces me to scroll through my screen to access all the different sub-menus. If they were placed underneath the main menu or bookmarked on the left-hand side, it would make navigation significantly easier. 

I would appreciate having more comprehensive reporting. While I believe the current reporting is accurate, I find it slightly simplistic in my view. However, I want to note that I've been using the product for only about a month, so it might take more time to fully process the information and generate detailed reports.

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for 2.5 years.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is stable. I haven't encountered any crashes or errors during installation. There have been no unusual glitches on the management console. Over the l;ast 2.5 years I'm extremely satisfied with the solution.

I don't have any issues with the console scaling. When I logged in earlier today, SentinelOne performed a complete site upgrade in the background, and I didn't even notice it. Scalability is also not a problem with agent inflation in my company. I have been able to deploy agents without any trouble. Initially, there was a minimum purchase requirement, which was slightly higher than our install base's cost. However, I was comfortable with purchasing the additional licenses. Therefore, if we do experience growth, licensing won't be an issue. I want to ensure that we remain within the appropriate range for that.

I have been informed that even if we experience a sudden surge in growth among our customers and we continue scaling and deploying agents, we will catch up with the licensing costs beyond our initial purchase price within the year. So, I am confident that they can scale effectively. Although my installation is relatively small in comparison to some larger organizations I've worked with in the past, I am aware that these products can scale to accommodate thousands of devices. I have full confidence that if we were to experience explosive growth within our company, I would be able to manage it without any issues.

I only had to use technical support once because my email address had not been added to various websites they have, such as their tech support and community website. For that issue, I had to contact my account manager because the tech support site hadn't recognized it yet. However, that single email was corrected almost immediately. Within five minutes, a community manager contacted me, informing me that I had been added, and I could proceed to log in to all the different sub-websites of SentinelOne to access the various resources they provide. The matter was resolved extremely quickly.

Positive

Norton AV.  We chose to switch to SentinelOne as a more advanced NextGen AV that was enterprise ready.  We made the switch as our company began to grow.

The initial setup is extremely easy. I collaborated with my team to grant trial access, allowing me to configure a single device and assess its functionality. Furthermore, the website's cloud segment was established automatically by SentinelOne. Upon downloading the package, it was promptly recognized, and the device was seamlessly incorporated into the cloud-based management console. This enabled me to effectively oversee, configure, and comprehend its settings. The overall process struck me as remarkably straightforward, even when I noticed that there was an error in the naming of my management console. A quick email to my account manager rectified the issue, with their prompt resolution at their end.

I completed the deployment on my own.

No 3rd party was used for the deployment.  After the initial portal was set up for us, the installation on the devices was straight forward.

No real ROI, however, I do feel more secure as a company knowing our devices and servers are protected with a terrific solution from SentinelOne.

Licensing and pricing were inline with my expectations.  There was a minimum license requirement, but as we continue to grow, we were ok with that minimum purchase requirement.

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete as a ten out of ten. The reason is that I found the visibility I was looking for. It identifies suspicious software immediately; I experienced this firsthand when it detected such software on my device while I was using certain tools. This assures me of the solution's effectiveness. The management dashboard is largely user-friendly and provides all the information I require. It allows me to search deep within the processes of the running instances. Therefore, I consider it a strong offering, especially since many competitors provide similar services. In terms of knowledge, SentinelOne Singularity Complete competes well with these other vendors. I am highly satisfied with my purchase.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete's ability to save us costs is currently unknown. The purchase of SentinelOne Singularity Complete was significantly more expensive than the Norton software we had previously been using on our other devices. However, there is a balance, and I have visibility into this. I have the agent and the support of a much larger organization that is specifically focused on this. Therefore, the increased cost is justified for what we are aiming to achieve. While it might potentially save us a significant amount of money if one of those devices becomes infected with serious malware that leads to ransomware or similar issues, its primary purpose is also to prevent such situations. In conclusion, whether it will ultimately save us costs is a complex question with both positive and negative aspects.

I downloaded the package from the cloud and had to search extensively to find the site token for proceeding with the installation. It would probably be easier if the package were downloaded directly from the cloud. The solution would recognize that it has been downloaded from my account on the cloud and wouldn't require applying that token. I think that might be simpler from an administrator's point of view. I appreciate the ability to create automation for updating the agents. I found that feature very useful, as it eliminates the need to update each device individually to a newer version or to manually check the cloud for a newer version. Once I approve the update, the automation tool handles the update process automatically. I really like that aspect.

Maintenance is straightforward. I accomplish this by creating automation for the agent upgrades whenever new versions are released. Once I receive the email notifying me of a new version, I access the console. In a matter of five minutes, I can generate automation that will proceed to update all the agents within our console automatically. Therefore, performing this task doesn't require much effort from my end.

I value SentinelOne as a strategic security partner. I have experience with other security products within much larger enterprises, some of which are significantly more expensive. Certain products require an entire team to initiate and run, demanding a substantial amount of time and effort to set up the infrastructure, create the necessary site, and proceed with deploying project management, involving multiple meetings. My engagement with SentinelOne was quite streamlined. I had only two meetings with them: one to familiarize myself with the product and a second one to make the purchase and understand the procurement process. Everything was handled by their team from the backend. If I remember correctly, these interactions took place on the same day. I had a meeting around ten o'clock, and by approximately three o'clock, the management console was prepared for my access. This allowed me to start deploying the agent for testing purposes. In my view, SentinelOne exhibits a customer-centric approach. They not only focus on the security aspects of their consumable product but also prioritize their customers. The professionals I collaborated with demonstrated a clear understanding that their clients come first. Overall, I am deeply impressed with SentinelOne. While I have experience with other vendors and larger corporations that hold more industry recognition, my comprehensive impression of SentinelOne over the month and a half of evaluating the product, and the subsequent month of using it, is exceptionally positive. They indeed offer a highly effective product that aids consumers in maintaining the security of their devices.

I recommend that organizations conduct their own thorough research and due diligence. Don't solely rely on marketing speeches. The security field has numerous players, many of whom offer similar services. Personally, I have experience with some of these other solutions that function very similarly to SentinelOne Singularity Complete, including their management platforms and agent-based solutions. What stood out to me was the depth of SentinelOne's research. They delve into the core aspects of security, beyond just product user-friendliness, easy installation, or a visually pleasing dashboard. Their commitment involves meticulous research into prevalent malware and viruses. They ensure that the solutions they provide can rapidly detect zero-day attacks and malware, offering immediate protection to their customers. In my view, SentinelOne stands out because they genuinely prioritize their customers' interests. They demonstrate their commitment through their dedicated research and development, and by offering applications that effectively safeguard customers.
