Featured Reviews

Andrew W - PeerSpot reviewer
Tells us about vulnerabilities as well as their impact and helps to focus on real issues
Looking at all the different pieces, it has got everything we need. Some of the pieces we do not even use. For example, we do not have Kubernetes Security. We are not running any K8 clusters, so it is good for us. Overall, we find the solution to be fantastic. There can be additional education components. This may not be truly fair to them because of what the product is going for, but it would be great to see additional education for compliance. It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background.
Raymond De Rooij - PeerSpot reviewer
Scalability and flexibility but needs better support
We are using Azure Kubernetes Service as a customer. I cannot detail all the products and technologies we are using There isn't one specific feature of Azure Kubernetes Service that I can name as most valuable. It's part of a strategic solution yet I don't see an advantage compared to our…
Maksym Toporkov - PeerSpot reviewer
A competitive choice for network detection and response with exceptional user interface, ease of implementation and minimal false positives
The NDR feature analyzes network traffic, creating records with connection details. While these records offer insights, there's a limitation in investigating payloads directly. ExtraHop provides an option for an additional server to save payloads, but its temporary storage has constraints. Unlike some competitors, it lacks an automatic payload-saving feature for each detection, presenting an improvement opportunity. Suggested enhancement involves the main sensor prompting payload storage for specific detections, streamlining the investigation process, and contributing to a more efficient workflow. A drawback includes packet storage limitations for payload data, necessitating timely extraction for thorough investigations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Support has been very helpful and provides regular feedback and help whenever needed. They've been very useful."
"The features that stand out are threat detection using advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning, helping to identify and respond to threats in real-time."
"SentinelOne stands out with its responsiveness to feature requests for Singularity Cloud Security."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's most valuable feature is its unified console."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its storyline, which helps trace an event back to its source, like an email or someone clicking on a link."
"The Offensive Security Engine, powered by impressive AI/ML capabilities, seamlessly integrates with cloud infrastructure to analyze data and provide optimal security solutions."
"The real-time detection and response capabilities overall are great."
"You not only get to know about vulnerabilities and misconfigurations but also some of the actual"
"Its support team resolves technical issues accurately."
"Integration and automation are the best features of the solution."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the diagnostic service."
"We like how easy it is to create the resources in this solution, thanks to how easy the UI is to use."
"The integration with Azure's security capabilities is very good. The Azure-managed identity and integration with the Azure application gateway for App Ingress are valuable features. Additionally, it is a very stable tool."
"The solution's technical support is excellent."
"AKS is easy to use. We can scale up and down as needed with AKS, which saves us money on our cloud costs."
"We are not yet fully public cloud-native, however, Azure Kubernetes Service promises interesting scalability and flexibility for the future."
"It stands out for its intuitive and efficient user interface, robust detection capabilities with minimal false positives, and the ability to handle encrypted traffic, making it a valuable asset for network security and management."
"It is very easy to collect and handle data in ExtraHop Reveal(X) Cloud. Integration with Big Data is also easy. Many of our customers integrate it with Big Data platforms like Splunk or Elastic. It is also easy to handle and easy to understand."
"It is scalable."
 

Cons

"I want SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to integrate additional third-party resources. For example, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is compatible with Azure and AWS, but Azure AD isn't integrated with AWS. If SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 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."
"Scanning capabilities should be added for the dark web."
"It does not bring much threat intel from the outside world. All it does is scan. If it can also correlate things, it will be better."
"Maybe container runtime security could be improved."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security takes four to five hours to detect and highlight an issue, and that time should be reduced."
"To enhance the notification system's efficiency, resolved issues should be promptly removed from the portal."
"The SentinelOne customer support needs improvement, as they are sometimes late in responding, which is critical in a production issue."
"I believe the UI/UX updates for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security have room for improvement."
"This is a fairly expensive solution, which can make it prohibitive for smaller organizations."
"More control over Infra scanning can be introduced."
"Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) is not up to optimal standards when it comes to capturing logs and visualization."
"The application firewall is lacking some features and there is room for enhancement."
"The technical support could be faster."
"There are some limitations with the tutor version, particularly in terms of using a lot of free audio. The private level also has restrictions, limiting the number of audio files you can access to just 50. If you want more, you need to contact support."
"The setup process could be more user-friendly, and additional documentation would be beneficial."
"The initial setup of AKS is complicated. The setup depends on the cluster, nodes, and lots of other things. There are also lots of extremely critical small devices. Moreover, you will have to pay them even while setting up the solution. It is not like you setup first and then pay for it."
"A drawback includes bucket storage limitations for payload data, necessitating timely extraction for thorough investigations."
"They can include integration with SAP. Currently, no vendor provides network performance monitoring in the SAP market. It is a very big market. We have around 400 customers for SAP in Korea. In the USA, there are more than 10,000 customers."
"There needs to be more support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its pricing was a little less than other providers."
"Its pricing is okay. It is in line with what other providers were providing. It is not cheap. It is not expensive."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is costly."
"SentinelOne is relatively cheap. If ten is the most expensive, I would rate it a seven."
"Its pricing is constant. It has been constant over the previous year, so I am happy with it. However, price distribution can be better explained. That is the only area I am worried about. Otherwise, the pricing is very reasonable."
"The pricing for PingSafe in India was more reasonable than other competitors."
"PingSafe is fairly priced."
"SentinelOne provided competitive pricing compared to other vendors, and we are satisfied with the deal."
"We are facing a significant challenge regarding OEM licensing. The issue arises from the fact that certain licenses required for our own purposes are not provided by Microsoft's licensing. Consequently, we are unsure about the most suitable mobile license provisioning model offered by third-party providers."
"The solution does not cost much."
"I like the pricing and find it to be in the mid-range, and I would rate it as five out of ten."
"The control plane is free and we only pay for the usage and time."
"The cost of the solution is extremely high. Both Amazon and Azure cost extremely high. Given the basic features like when they are coming over the cluster nodes, we think over ten times before giving the solution to clients. No matter how many offerings the solution provides, it becomes so much of a burden that you are not even getting back your invested money from customers."
"The pricing of the solution is same as Azure Stack."
"The product follows a pay-as-you-go pricing model which is good for small enterprises. You need to pay only for the services that you use."
"As you scale your operations, AKS becomes more cost-effective."
"When compared to other solutions, it aligns with the market average, indicating a competitive pricing level."
