Precise, integrates well, and helps consolidate security solutions

SentinelOne Singularity Complete helps consolidate security solutions. There is a hot discussion about the future of the Security Operations Center. Security Operations Centers generally use SIEM and SOAR, but SentinelOne Singularity XDR can also help there because you can see what is happening not only on the endpoints but also in the network. In other words, you can replace the NDR solution. We also see it going all the way to include all the clouds. This ecosystem is very important to us. In the near future, we see it being used for all the problems related to detection and response in cybersecurity. Our customers use the Ranger functionality. There are two Ranger versions. There is Ranger AD, and there is Ranger Pro. SentinelOne Singularity platform has its own security ecosystem. You do not have the need to buy other solutions. For example, we sell a ZTNA solution. If you have ZTNA, you do not need to buy a PAM solution. You do not need to buy a NAC solution. The ZTNA technology has replaced all the other solutions. It is the same thing with Singularity. If you buy the ecosystem of Singularity, you do not need to buy several different technologies. Ranger can do all the hardware inventory. It can point out the versions of the operating systems and then you can apply patching to update the versions of the operating systems. You can use Ranger in different ways. For a security professional, it is a very powerful tool. It sends you alerts and warnings about possible incidents, but you do not get too many false positives. It is precise. You get real information about an incident. It is very important to have good hygiene of your endpoints and your network. The uptime of the endpoints and networks is very important. SentinelOne Singularity Complete provides a good uptime. Incident identification is very important and having fewer false positives is also important. The SOC staff knows that if SentinelOne Singularity points out an incident, they have to pay attention to the threat. It is a very good checker. SentinelOne Singularity Complete reduces the organization's risk.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"PingSafe offers comprehensive security posture management."

"It integrates very well. We sell different products from different vendors. We know that the SentinelOne Singularity platform can be integrated with several different solutions from different vendors."

"The UI is very good."

"The most valuable features of PingSafe are the asset inventory and issue indexing."

"SentinelOne stands out with its responsiveness to feature requests for Singularity Cloud Security."

"The offensive security feature is valuable because it publicly detects the offensive and vulnerable things present in our domain or applications. It checks any applications with public access. Some of the applications give public access to certain files or are present over a particular domain. It detects and lets us know with evidence. That is quite good. It is protecting our infrastructure quite well."

"With PingSafe, it's easy to onboard new accounts."

"It's positively affected the communication between cloud security, application developers, and AppSec teams."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pros

"The container security element of this product has been very valuable to our organization."

"We use Aqua Security for the container security features."

"The DTA, which stands for Dynamic Threat Analysis, allows me to analyze Docker images in a sandbox environment before deployment, helping me anticipate risks."

"Aqua Security helps us to check the vulnerability of image assurance and check for malware."

"Customers find it invaluable to have the ability to check for vulnerabilities in an image before deployment, similar to a sandbox environment."

"Support is very helpful."

"The most helpful feature of Aqua Security is Drift Prevention, which is a feature that allows images to be immutable. In addition, one of the main reasons we went with Aqua Security is because it provides strong protection when it comes to runtime security."

"The most valuable feature is the security."

More Aqua Cloud Security Platform pros

"They have multiple great features."

Cons

"While PingSafe offers real-time response, there is room for improvement in alert accuracy."

"PingSafe filtering has some areas that cause problems, and to achieve single sign-on functionality, a break-glass feature, which is currently unavailable, is necessary."

"I want PingSafe to integrate additional third-party resources. For example, PingSafe is compatible with Azure and AWS, but Azure AD isn't integrated with AWS. If PingSafe had that ability, it would enrich the data because how users interact with our AWS environment is crucial. All the identity-related features require improvement."

"The integration with Oracle has room for improvement."

"The cost has the potential for improvement."

"There's room for improvement in the graphic explorer."

"It would be really helpful if the solution improves its agent deployment process."

"We had a glitch in PingSafe where it fed us false positives in the past."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security cons

"Aqua Security lacks a lot in reporting."

"We would like to see an improvement in the overview visibility that this solution offers."

"In the next release, Aqua Security should add the ability to automatically send reports to customers."

"Aqua Security could improve the forwarding of logging into Splunk and into other tools, it should be easier."

"The user interface could be improved, especially in terms of organization and clarity."

"Sometimes I got stressed with the UI."

"Since we are working from home, we would like to have the proper training for Aqua."

"I would like Aqua Security to look into is the development of a web security portal."

More Aqua Cloud Security Platform cons

"We end up facing a lot of issues after upgrades."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As a partner, we receive a discount on the licenses."

"The price depends on the extension of the solution that you want to buy. If you want to buy just EDR, the price is less. XDR is a little bit more expensive. There are going to be different add-ons for Singularity."

"It is cheap."

"PingSafe is priced reasonably for our workload."

"For pricing, it currently seems to be in line with market rates."

"I am not involved in the pricing, but it is cost-effective."

"Its pricing is okay. It is in line with what other providers were providing. It is not cheap. It is not expensive."

"The tool is cost-effective."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pricing and cost advice

"Dealing with licensing costs isn't my responsibility, but I know that the licenses don't depend on the number of users, but instead are priced according to your workload."

"Aqua Security is not cheap, and it's not very expensive, such as Splunk, they are in the middle."

"It comes at a reasonable cost."

"The pricing of this solution could be improved."

"They were reasonable with their pricing. They were pretty down-to-earth about the way they pitched their product and the way they tried to close the deal. They were one of the rare companies that approached the whole valuation in a way that made sense for our company, for our needs, and for their own requirements as well... They will accommodate your needs if they are able to understand them and they're stated clearly."
