Security correlations have boosted compliance operations and improve user productivity
Pros and Cons
- "The main benefits the end-user gets from Singularity Platform are, first, the program itself being very small, and then we get better output from applications running on their systems."
- "In my opinion, the real-time monitoring capabilities in Singularity Platform sometimes work and sometimes they don't, because there are a lot of false positives and people use unsigned applications which get deleted or quarantined by the product."
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
I have found the correlations in Singularity Platform to be the most valuable. The main benefits the end-user gets from Singularity Platform are, first, the program itself being very small, and then we get better output from applications running on their systems. The output of the users has gone up 50%, although I don't remember other benefits at this time.
What needs improvement?
There are a lot of false positives in that, which is why I'm not working with it. The use of the fraud detection feature in financial services in Singularity Platform depends on the compliances that are applicable to the organization, so it may be useful for some and may not be useful for others. I did that by myself, not with the help of Singularity Platform. In my opinion, the real-time monitoring capabilities in Singularity Platform sometimes work and sometimes they don't, because there are a lot of false positives and people use unsigned applications which get deleted or quarantined by the product. It's not a 100% foolproof solution.
A point for improvement for SentinelOne is that the false positives are huge since people in India, at least, are using homegrown applications which get blocked. Right now, Singularity Platform is working fine, but people have concerns about enhancements like website monitoring that can be done through Singularity Platform itself, so they don't need to buy any SASE products for people working from home to control their browsing. If that feature can be included, it will be a big advantage.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with Singularity Platform for almost two years now.

SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint
August 2026
Learn what your peers think about SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint. Get advice and tips from experienced pros sharing their opinions. Updated: August 2026.
911,493 professionals have used our research since 2012.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I had some issues with that.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I would rate the scalability a nine.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support will always be between six and seven.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup for Singularity Platform is very simple; the dashboard is quite simple, and the agents' installations are very simple, like one click, I would say.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
For pricing, I would say it's a six. It could be cheaper, as I understand.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
The main competitor for Singularity Platform is CrowdStrike at number one, and the second is Trellix, which is coming up very fast. The leader on the market is still SentinelOne, but if they don't add some add-ons to their product like Trellix and CrowdStrike have, they may lag very soon. If we do only apple-to-apple comparison on Singularity Platform, then I'll give it ten marks.
What other advice do I have?
Singularity Platform functions as a security information and event management solution, and that is an inbuilt part of it. I believe in the correlations that I get because we work on it, but we don't use the Purple AI part of it. I'm not able to get clarity regarding the real-time personalization feature in Singularity Platform. I do not use the real-time personalization feature in Singularity Platform. It is a matter of false positives when people use it in my area.
Regarding the impact of Singularity Platform on supply chain processes, I don't have much on it, but it's a good product and the tracking is better with the log capturing and the data that we get from it. The customer does require customizations on the dashboards as per the requirement of their organizations; if it's manufacturing, medical, or financial institution or banking, then they will have different requirements for their dashboards, which are yet not available, so we have to actually build up those dashboards for them. I can recommend Singularity Platform to other users. I have provided this review a rating of 9.

Storyline has improved incident investigations and now needs deeper process visibility
Pros and Cons
- "SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint positively impacts my organization by saving time because I can see many details right away without needing to look for everything in some queries or anywhere."
- "To improve SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, I want to continue working on this and provide even more data, more visibility, and everything clearer and faster."
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint involves handling suspicious PowerShell activity, which is probably the most common one.
When I mention suspicious PowerShell activity, SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint helped me detect or respond to that incident with the Storyline feature, which I found excellent. It visually shows you what is going on, where, when, what the grandparent process is, what the parent process is, and what the child process is, so you can quickly go through it and gain insights on that.
I have more to add about my main use case or the types of incidents SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint helped me with. It is not just one use case; it is usually EDR and some XDR that helps you show various details. It is good that you can take actions from there, and it is really user-friendly to search something in the logs.
What is most valuable?
The best features SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint offers, which I found most valuable, is the Storyline, as it helps really well and provides deep visibility of everything.
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint positively impacts my organization by saving time because I can see many details right away without needing to look for everything in some queries or anywhere. From the first vital glance, I can see the main information, which really saves time.
In terms of how much time it saved me or my team, if a usual ticket took about 20 minutes to investigate, with this solution it takes about 10 minutes; it is probably two times better.
What needs improvement?
To improve SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, I want to continue working on this and provide even more data, more visibility, and everything clearer and faster. I guess everywhere could use a few additional functions, but they are not really needed.
I would add more about the needed improvements regarding features. I mean more deeper insights and bigger visibility so that when you have any process, you can click and it can show you everything for that process, so you can see really quickly everything that you need, enabling quick analysis and decision-making.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint for a few months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is pretty much stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability of SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is good.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I did not previously switch from a different solution. We just added it for some clients, depending on what they wanted, but I was using CrowdStrike and Microsoft XDR as well.
What was our ROI?
I believe I have seen a return on investment from using SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, though I am not sure and was not involved in prices. I guess it helps.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, I did not evaluate other options because I was not involved in that process.
What other advice do I have?
My advice to others looking into using SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is to try it and use it to see if you it; it is good for me. I would rate this product a 7 out of 10.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Hybrid Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Centralized endpoint protection has provided granular policies and improved threat detection
Pros and Cons
- "SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint has helped us consolidate our security solutions by providing a complete overview of all of our devices."
- "The UX in SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint can be quite difficult sometimes."
What is our primary use case?
Our main use case for SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is to protect all devices in the company. We are protecting all our devices by deploying a SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint sensor to block all threats that can come into the devices, and we have some interconnection with our SIEM and SOC company to ensure that we will not miss any threat.
We are also using SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint to realize the flow of which devices are trying to contact to ensure that no external compromised flows are used by collaborators.
What is most valuable?
The best feature for me in SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is the granularity of the policy that we can have. As you might know, the ADEO group is quite big with several business units, and each business unit will have its own policies. Our main issue at the beginning of the project was to deal with these different business units, and we had the opportunity with SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint to specify very granular policy for each business unit.
This granularity in SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint will offer us more control because each business unit will have its specific business capacity, which can trigger some alerts. We will have to add some whitelist and sometimes some blacklist to ensure to catch all of the threats on the group.
Another feature is the possibility to have some dashboarding directly on SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint. We had in the past other tools, and the dashboarding part was not as good as SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, so we are really enjoying this part.
Thanks to SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, the ADEO group can manage all sensors for all business units instead of having different EDR spread across all the business units. In the past, we had three or four different EDR; now we only have one SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint for our group, and we have the opportunity to keep the management in SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint by ADEO, with all business units able to manage their own deployment of the sensor and policy management.
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint has helped us consolidate our security solutions by providing a complete overview of all of our devices. We deployed SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint in servers, point of sale, workstations, and so on. Thanks to the SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint solution, we now have a complete overview of all of our devices, their level of security across the business unit, and in one dashboard, we can manage all alerts and threats retrieved by SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint.
What needs improvement?
The UX in SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint can be quite difficult sometimes. We had in the past other EDR, and sometimes the former EDR was simpler than SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, so at the beginning, it can be really complex to understand how it works, how to manage the policies, and how to handle the RBAC. We had to follow the documentation and the different knowledge transfers offered by SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, but we are quite good now, so we can manage SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint by ourselves.
Except for the UX part of SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint which can be time-consuming, I do not have any other improvements to share.
I chose eight out of ten because even if SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is quite good in our day-to-day works, there are some improvements needed, especially on the UX part. The UX part is really important for us because we have some turnover in the cybersecurity team, so we would like to be sure that newcomers can handle SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint quickly, and sometimes we have to share knowledge transfers, which can be time-consuming.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working in my current field for more than ten years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is stable; so far, we did not have any issues with it.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
So far, we have more than one thousand devices, with a total of one hundred thousand devices deployed, which indicates that the scalability is really good because we did not have any issues.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support for SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint was great; as soon as we had an issue, they were able to answer our questions.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We used another solution for the whole group, but we were not satisfied with the log management offered and found it less effective with threat detection.
How was the initial setup?
We had the opportunity to interconnect SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint with our current SOC and SIEM tool, and the interconnection was really great and easy. SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint can offer some direct connectors, and we used one of them to ensure that everything can be configured quickly and easily, so we were really satisfied with this part.
What was our ROI?
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint really reduced the number of threats. SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint reduced our MTTD by roughly forty percent. It reduced our MTTR by roughly thirty percent, depending on which business unit you are dealing with because some business units do not even have any cyber expert, making the alerts more complex to handle.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The experience with the pricing in SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint can be quite difficult to understand because there are several licensing lines, and sometimes it can be complicated to know which lines will be used. Thanks to the help of the SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint team, we had a great test offer to follow our needs. Compared to our previous solution, the licensing part of SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint was less expensive, so we saved some money.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We only evaluated one other solution, which was Trend Micro.
What other advice do I have?
I would advise others looking into using SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint to ensure they have some experts able to manage the configuration of the product because it can be really difficult to manage. I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint an eight out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Automated protection has minimized threats and reduced detection and response times dramatically
Pros and Cons
- "It would be nice if they improved the user interface."
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is endpoint detection and monitoring as well as monitoring devices. An example of how I use SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint for endpoint detection is monitoring the device to see if there is any suspicious activity.
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint has a very quick detection capability, so we managed to detect a virus and quarantine it during a recent situation.
What is most valuable?
The best features SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint offers are the fact that it quarantines any malicious activity very quickly and it detects by hashes. When threats such as ransomware or malware are detected, it alerts me quickly and quarantines the file.
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint's scalability is very easy to scale because it just takes adding devices since the main server is already set up. SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is deployed in my organization on-premises via agents that are installed on each device. SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint has impacted my organization positively as we have been able to minimize threats, and it is automated.
What needs improvement?
It is very difficult to say how SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint can be improved as it is such a great product. It would be nice if they improved the user interface. I wish it was easier to navigate the dashboard and that it was more user-friendly.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint for three years in total.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint's scalability is very easy to scale because it just takes adding devices since the main server is already set up.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support is great and very easy.
I would rate the customer support on a scale of 1 to 10 as a 10, and I would give customer support a 9 from 1 to 10.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I previously used Microsoft Defender. I switched because SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint has a lot more AI capabilities and is much easier to use and has a better detection procedure.
How was the initial setup?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing was very easy and simple.
What about the implementation team?
Singularity Complete has helped me consolidate my security solutions, as I was able to get rid of a lot of unnecessary software.
What was our ROI?
I have seen no return on investment as I do not deal with finances.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing was very easy and simple.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I evaluated other options such as Microsoft Defender as well as Kaspersky before choosing SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint.
What other advice do I have?
SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint has helped reduce my organization's mean time to detect, or MTTD, by 56 percent. SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint has helped reduce my organization's mean time to respond, or MTTR, by 50 percent.
My advice to others looking into using SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint is that they should evaluate the product and run a proof of concept to see if it is well-suited for the organization.
Regarding SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint's AI capabilities, I believe it has a lot of governance and security features that are built-in, which I am very impressed with. It is very accurate in terms of its detection regarding SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint's AI capabilities in terms of accuracy and reliability of its output.
I am very impressed with SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint's ability to ingest and correlate across my security solutions because the solution is able to do its own thing with very little interaction with anything else.
Singularity Complete has helped reduce alerts by 56 percent as it was able to mitigate false positives. Singularity Complete has saved my staff a couple of hours every day as less human intervention is required and they are able to release the devices. I would rate this solution overall a 10.

Video Review
Our security analysts can efficiently manage incidents and investigations with its succinct interface
Pros and Cons
- "We are freeing up our resources and our security analysts' time to focus on the most critical threats to our landscape by not having to chase down false positives."
- "SentinelOne can continue to make the presentation of relevant and timely data to the analysts as succinct and clear as possible. It will allow analysts to execute remediation or resolution with the least amount of clicks."
What is our primary use case?
We have the Singularity Endpoint Detection platform along with the MDR service. We are using their Singularity Enterprise offering along with Vigilance Pro.
We are currently in the process of deploying it. We started with the deployment earlier this calendar year with a goal of reaching 30,000 endpoints this year. We have deployed to about 25,000 endpoints to date. Our end goal is 100,000, but that will be phased in over the next year.
How has it helped my organization?
Our deployment experience has been excellent. We have received a ton of support from their customer success team. We are using this initial deployment to tune the product to make sure it is not causing performance issues on our endpoints. We are going about it in a very methodical fashion.
It has helped us achieve business goals in a few areas. Even though we are early in our adoption, there are a few areas where I have seen benefits. One is around the technology, the solution itself. It provides our security analysts with a very succinct and usable interface that they can use to effectively and efficiently manage incidents and investigations.
The second area is around the MDR. This has been a huge benefit to us compared to our prior solution. We used to get a lot of false positives. That took up the time of our security analysts, which then took away time from addressing real problems.
The risk management at Lenovo has improved greatly over our prior toolset. We have identified risks that we would not have otherwise identified with our prior implementation.
Our analysts' efficiency has gone up tremendously. We are not chasing false positives. The tool provides timely and relevant information to our analysts so that they can address the events with confidence. They know they are working on the right activities, and then along with the managed service, they are not chasing rudimentary incidents. Those are being resolved before they can get to our team.
It has definitely helped us reduce noise. In the prior platform, which we are phasing out, the false positive rate was tremendously high. That caused a huge amount of inefficiency in the team.
It has helped us increase our incident response because we are working as a team. We not only have an improved platform for detecting and managing incidents; we are also partnering with SentinelOne on the MDR and the managed service aspect of it.
It has helped us improve our mean time to respond from a perspective of seeing what is happening. I do not have any metrics related to the percentage of that improvement.
It has highlighted the risk of insider threats, and we have found that on multiple occasions. It is hard to compare if they would have been caught in our prior solution, but we have increased visibility into what is going on across our network and the machines that are connected to it.
SentinelOne is an integral part of our AI strategy. We have recently got a chief AI officer in our organization. He happened to be our chief security officer, so we take AI very seriously. There are two things that AI can impact. We can leverage SentinelOne to help us protect the AI models that we develop and use, but we can also leverage AI for endpoint protection in the product itself. We can utilize the AI offering to improve our response rate and mean time to respond.
What is most valuable?
We are freeing up our resources and our security analysts' time to focus on the most critical threats to our landscape by not having to chase down false positives. In conjunction with the MDR, many of those incidents and events are mitigated and resolved without any intervention from our team.
What needs improvement?
SentinelOne can continue to make the presentation of relevant and timely data to the analysts as succinct and clear as possible. It will allow analysts to execute remediation or resolution with the least amount of clicks.
For how long have I used the solution?
We started with the deployment earlier this calendar year.
How are customer service and support?
The support from SentinelOne has been second to none, exceeding expectations. Maybe we are in the honeymoon period, but they have definitely exceeded expectations. I have been part of many deployments, not just of cybersecurity platforms but also of other platforms, and SentinelOne, in comparison, has been second to none.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
We purchase it through CDW.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
One of the primary considerations in evaluating EDR and identity security vendors was around the effectiveness of the detection and the ability to tune the solution to fit our needs. The presentation of the data to our analysts and the ability to detect events and threats that were not detected by our prior platform played a big role in that. We also were able to test out the MDR service as part of our proof of concept. That pushed it over the edge from anything we experienced with other vendors.
Earlier, we had a high false positive rate coming in, which would take up our analysts' time. In addition to that, our prior vendors or other vendors would report threats and incidents to our team but not what action to take to resolve them. The huge difference that we have seen is that we are now getting feedback from SentinelOne and the MDR team, and it is coming back completely resolved and completed. We are more on an information basis, and we do not have to spend any time on resolution or investigation.
What other advice do I have?
Anyone considering changing their endpoint detection or SIEM solution should consider SentinelOne. It offers benefits in the product and technology aspect, service aspect, and partnership, allowing us to influence the roadmap and plan our cyber defenses.
Even though we are early on in our adoption, we have had a direct line of contact with the product team. We have been able to provide feature requests. We are not simply a customer of SentinelOne. We view it as a partnership. We can influence the roadmap. Likewise, SentinelOne is providing us a vision of their roadmap, and we can plan accordingly how to steer our cyber defenses.
As it stands today, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete a nine out of ten simply because we are so early in our adoption that we are not taking full advantage of all the aspects of the solution. We will continue to grow and mature alongside the product.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

User-friendly interface and policy customization helps with server protection
Pros and Cons
- "The interface of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is user-friendly, and we can quickly find what we need."
- "Overall, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete a nine out of ten because nothing is perfect, but it is close."
- "SentinelOne Singularity Complete is the best EDR in the market, but it will evolve, though I have concerns about using US partners in Europe due to the geopolitical context. It is better to work with European companies."
- "The main issue with SentinelOne Singularity Complete was the process memory used for Linux servers, which generated a lot of tickets and incidents due to the high load of disk consumption and memory."
What is our primary use case?
Our main use case is to protect all the Linux servers. We use it only for servers, not for users.
How has it helped my organization?
SentinelOne Singularity Complete is one of the most mature solutions available. It shows great benefits over time.
We can install filters to analyze every alert, and make some whitelists, blacklists, and exceptions, thus helping reduce alerts.
It can reduce the organization's risk. It gives better control to our limited team resources.
It already has AI capabilities, which is one of their advantages.
What is most valuable?
When you select a policy for a type of server, such as an Active Directory, we can apply a dedicated policy. We can have a dedicated policy for Exchange Server and a dedicated policy for MS SQL, Oracle server, etc.
The interface of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is user-friendly, and we can quickly find what we need.
What needs improvement?
The main issue with SentinelOne Singularity Complete was the process memory used for Linux servers, which generated a lot of tickets and incidents due to the high load of disk consumption and memory. The problem was on all systems, but especially on Linux servers. It might have already been fixed.
SentinelOne Singularity Complete is the best EDR in the market, but it will evolve, though I have concerns about using US partners in Europe due to the geopolitical context. It is better to work with European companies.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for approximately four years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
For stability, I would rate it a nine, as I have experienced only the issue of overload.
How are customer service and support?
The technical support from SentinelOne Singularity Complete is very active and good, with a strong knowledge base available online. The response time of technical support is satisfactory and acceptable.
I would rate their support a nine out of ten based on reactivity and the solutions they provide; this is based on my team's interactions, not mine.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
For Windows servers, we are using Defender. SentinelOne Singularity Complete is only used for Linux servers.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was not really complex; we only needed one on-premise management server to deploy to different servers. It took about two months for about 300 servers.
What about the implementation team?
I am the third party assisting in the deployment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I don't know about the licensing model. It seems easy, but it's not my area of expertise. I don't have information on how it compares to its competitors, but the pricing is per device.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We conducted some PoCs between SentinelOne Singularity Complete, Defender, and Carbon Black, and we decided to go with SentinelOne Singularity Complete based on usability.
What other advice do I have?
It is unclear if it has helped reduce our organization's mean time to detect or respond because we have a platform with four people, and we are using SOC as well. Our main activities are done by four people, and we don't have much time to conduct thorough investigations.
I cannot assess SentinelOne Singularity Complete's ability to be innovative because we stayed with it after choosing it and never compared it with others.
Overall, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete a nine out of ten because nothing is perfect, but it is close.

Executive Vice President Technology at InfoEdge India Ltd
Provides centralized management but doesn't work very well with Linux endpoints
Pros and Cons
- "Whether our endpoints are running on Windows, Mac, Linux, or any flavor of operating systems, and even mobile devices, we can have a central dashboard through which we can do complete user management and policy management. We can have a complete security posture organization-wise, department-wise, or business-wise."
- "We ran into production issues related to CPU utilization on Linux endpoints. Our production environment's performance got degraded like anything."
What is our primary use case?
We used it only for six months. Initially, it turned out to be a good product, but then we had an issue, so we stopped using it. We are now using CrowdStrike.
From an endpoint perspective, we have a heterogeneous environment. We have Windows, we have Mac, and we have Linux endpoints. We deployed it on all the endpoints, all different operating systems, and cloud instances as well. Our AD was also integrated along with the identity solution, but the issues specifically get reported on the endpoints for open-source or Linux. That is why we decided not to move forward with it.
By implementing SentinelOne Singularity Complete, we wanted security for our endpoints. After COVID, endpoint security became even more critical because our perimeter was more exposed. It was expanding wherever the end users were, so endpoint security became much more critical. Previously, in terms of endpoint security, the traditional antivirus, anti-malware, and endpoint protection were disconnected systems. We did not have any offline correlation, log collection, or policy management, whereas SentinelOne, as well as CrowdStrike, come with a central console. For compliance requirements, such as ISO, SOC 2, or PCI, we have to provide evidence in terms of the status of the endpoint patches and security posture. That is possible through the central console. That was the motivation for us to move to one of these products. SentinelOne was our first choice, but we ran into a specific issue.
We had not specifically signed up for any risk management, but we were also looking to expand that to a completely managed SOC where we do the log correlation as well. When we initially started, we only started with the endpoint, identity, and cloud.
How has it helped my organization?
The main reason for getting this solution was that it was a new-gen endpoint solution for having an organization-wide view of security vulnerabilities or abnormal behavior. That was the main reason we got started with SentinelOne Singularity Complete. It gave us a lot of that information. It also helped us with compliance requirements. In the case of any specific instance or any abnormal behavior, its reports certainly helped us with the root cause analysis and collection of logs. It helped us in providing or collecting the evidence that we could use in our compliance reports to ensure proper reporting for relevant legal entities.
The ranger product helped us to do discovery of endpoints. We could identify our rogue devices.
SentinelOne Singularity Complete helped to reduce alerts. It groups the alerts. If you have similar alerts coming from the same server or a couple of servers at a similar time frame, it groups them and sends a single alert along with the device ID. This way, you have less number of alerts for the team to work on. If the agent itself is not in the running state or does not have the latest signatures available, it basically groups the alerts and tries to create a single alert. You have all the endpoints listed out, and you can take action against that particular issue rather than the same issue being reported from thousands of machines together. It is hard to provide the metrics, but generally, it helped quite a bit. I had around 8,000 endpoint licenses, and if 20% of the services started reporting the same issue, there would have been 1,500 to 1,600 alerts in a minute. It merges them into a single alert. We can also define a real-time action. A single alert helps our backend team to take action easily. The same is applicable to the SentinelOne support as well. If certain patches or certain actions are required to mitigate an issue, their team can do the mitigation in one shot and the fixes get pushed to all the servers that were reporting that particular issue. In one shot, you can automate and orchestrate your mitigation.
SentinelOne Singularity Complete helped reduce the mean time to detect and the mean time to resolution. There was at least a 10% reduction.
SentinelOne Singularity Complete did not help us save any direct costs, but there is an opportunity in terms of manhours saved in the backend because of having all these features integrated. There were indirect cost benefits. We saved a lot of hours because our engineers did not have to keep an eye on all the alerts. They could automate certain actions. That was an indirect cost benefit. I cannot list any direct cost benefits. These are costly products.
SentinelOne Singularity Complete absolutely helped reduce organizational risk. It is meant for that. We had different levels of reporting available. We could have an executive view. We could view the standards or framework that we were using. We could see the level of compliance to various standards in terms of percentage. We could also define the actions by accepting something as a risk or mitigating that by orchestrating.
What is most valuable?
There is centralized reporting and view. We can have role-based access management where technical people or monitoring people can have a central dashboard with a single view of all the endpoints. Whether our endpoints are running on Windows, Mac, Linux, or any flavor of operating systems, and even mobile devices, we can have a central dashboard through which we can do complete user management and policy management. We can have a complete security posture organization-wise, department-wise, or business-wise.
They have a good data lake kind of feature where you can ingest all the security logs. They can be from your endpoint, your identity management system, or your cloud. They can be from any of those services, so you get to do log analytics. That is one of the features that I liked about it. The same capability is also available with CrowdStrike which we are now exploring because of the issue with SentinelOne. However, at the time, with SentinelOne Singularity Complete, because of log analytics, we could do threat intel or sandboxing or have custom logic written for any specific kind of reaction. Those kinds of things were quite easy.
Log analytics and a couple of other things were also pretty good.
What needs improvement?
We ran into production issues related to CPU utilization on Linux endpoints. Our production environment's performance got degraded like anything. After a lot of debugging, we figured out that because it consumed a big percentage of the CPU and memory. Some of the applications were restarting automatically or randomly. We had an auto-healing infrastructure, so if the system memory was available, the application would restart on its own. When this issue got prolonged, we could see a lot of service failures because of being out of memory. This issue started hitting us wherever we had persistence connection requirements. Because existing connections were breaking completely, any transaction that somebody was doing online got terminated, and that was a big issue.
They should improve it for the open-source or Linux endpoints. They can provide customizations where we can limit the on-access CPU utilization or memory utilization. It should honor the specified limit and use only a limited percentage of CPU and memory rather than utilizing all the CPU or memory available on a system.
Other than that, I do not have any input. There is a lot of potential. There are a lot of possibilities for orchestration and sandboxing. Because we hit one particular issue, we were not able to continue using it, but I see a lot of opportunities there.
For how long have I used the solution?
With SentinelOne Singularity Complete, we did not work for a long time. We gave away this product within six months. There were some problems or issues reported, and that is why we discontinued using this product. We stopped using it nine to ten months ago. We have now migrated completely to CrowdStrike.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I discarded this product within six months. I would rate its stability a five out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Its scalability is fine. I would rate it a nine out of ten for scalability.
We used it in a heterogeneous environment. We had about 8,000 endpoint licenses.
How are customer service and support?
I would rate their support a six out of ten because the issues that I had reported were not resolved.
As a strategic partner, SentinelOne is pretty good. They are very proactive.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Prior to SentinelOne Singularity Complete, we had multiple pieces. We did not have one single product for everything. For endpoint security, we had McAfee as an antivirus and anti-malware. For identity, there was a different application altogether. For SIEM, there was a completely different solution, and for log correlation, we had a different log management server. Dashboarding solutions were completely different. EPO was the tool that we had to orchestrate some of the endpoint and antivirus-related policies.
We were having some challenges with SentinelOne Singularity Complete, so we migrated to CrowdStrike. We are now also exploring CrowdStrike's SIEM solution.
From a maturity standpoint, both SentinelOne Singularity Complete and CrowdStrike are mature products.
How was the initial setup?
We deployed it on-prem and on the cloud. Its deployment was straightforward. It was orchestrated via my backend tool.
It does not require much maintenance. The maintenance required is similar to an endpoint. One or two people are sufficient for 8,000 to 9,000 licenses because they need to just monitor the status. In case they find a rogue device, then only they have to take action. Otherwise, once they have a complete deployment done, they just need to automate reports and tasks. Those kinds of things certainly help.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
It is expensive. There is no doubt about it. If one of the functions does not work, it becomes very difficult for any CIO to justify the cost.
I would not be able to share the exact price, but we had almost 8,000 endpoint licenses, and it was a huge cost.
CrowdStrike is not cheaper than SentinelOne. Both products go neck to neck. Both are costly products.
What other advice do I have?
I would advise going for this solution only if you have a clear use case.
I have only one recommendation. If anybody wants to use such a solution to its potential, they need to be very clear about their use case. They need to know whether they want to go for the complete solution or they are just focusing on the endpoint solution. If you have a complete use case that requires EDR, identity, cloud, and log analytics, then SentinelOne or CrowdStrike makes sense. If you only have an endpoint use case, then these solutions do not make sense. It would not be a cost-effective deal.
After the complete endpoint deployment, you have complete asset visibility. We never used the life cycle management piece. We were just using the EDR feature.
SentinelOne Singularity Complete did not help free up the time of our staff for other projects and tasks. It has a lot of potential to do that, but we used it for a very short duration. Because of the issue we had, we did not continue using this solution. However, it has a lot of potential.
I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete a six out of ten. After they improve the product and their support, I may increase the rating. At this time, I cannot rate it more than six.

Automation has freed up our team, streamlining quick actions and restoration capabilities
Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable features are the quick action and restoration capabilities."
- "The stability is just okay."
What is our primary use case?
First, budget-wise, and for the quick actions I take in automation, certainly AI plays a crucial role.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features are the quick action and restoration capabilities. I can catch any behavior and restore everything for the last two changes. There's also automation that gives my team free time, preventing them from having to look for every alert. As a result, we don't need their action on some emails.
What needs improvement?
Integration with the firewalls is needed because there is no integration with Forti as a FortiAnalyzer. It is currently integrated with FortiManager and the Forti box, but if I have an analyzer, it doesn’t integrate with them. It would be better if there were direct integration with FortiAnalyzer.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used the solution for two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The stability is just okay.
