Having a reliable team ready and willing to assist with any issues is essential.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) offers scalable, efficient auto-scaling for enterprises, but requires proper design and can be costly.
Sentiment score
8.2
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud offers scalable, easily integrated security solutions for diverse needs, supporting AWS and Azure with seamless expansion.
AKS offers excellent scalability due to its adaptation from Kubernetes.
I would rate it a 10 out of 10 for scalability.
Scalability is no longer a concern because Cloud Native Security is a fully cloud-based resource.
I would rate the scalability of PingSafe 10 out of 10.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
6.7
Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) is a stable, reliable platform praised for self-healing, despite occasional minor issues.
Sentiment score
8.2
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is stable and reliable, with occasional UI lags but generally praised for consistent performance.
From my usage, I would rate its stability as eight to nine out of ten.
It's very stable, and the support is satisfactory.
It's a reliable solution that the organization is increasingly adopting for its robust features and security.
We contacted Cloud Native Security, and they addressed it in a day.
The only downtime we had was when switching from V1 to V2 but it was smooth.
 

Room For Improvement

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) needs improved support, cost management, easier onboarding, better integration, and enhanced features for user satisfaction.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security needs enhancements in affordability, integration, support, customization, documentation, and performance for improved user experience.
The costs are rising rapidly, and we have not seen any cost reductions by moving to Azure.
It is costly compared to other solutions such as Canonical.
If they can merge Kubernetes Security with other modules related to Kubernetes, that would help us to get more modules in the current subscription.
As organizations move to the cloud, a cloud posture management tool that offers complete cloud visibility becomes crucial for maintaining compliance.
I would also like to see Cloud Native Security offer APIs that allow us to directly build dashboards within the platform.
 

Setup Cost

Azure Kubernetes Service is costly yet valued for scalability and manageability, with flexible pricing but higher than some alternatives.
SentinelOne Singularity is competitively priced but perceived as costly for larger deployments and possibly unsuitable for smaller businesses.
Transitioning to Azure did not bring cost reductions; in fact, costs are rising rapidly.
The solution is very expensive in my opinion.
The pricing for Azure Kubernetes Service seems to be around the average, which I would rate as a five out of ten.
I believe the enterprise version costs around $55 per user per year.
There are some tools that are double the cost of Cloud Native Security.
I recall Cloud Native Security charging a slightly higher premium previously.
 

Valuable Features

Azure Kubernetes Service offers security, integration, automation, and robust CI/CD with features for scalability and application management efficiency.
SentinelOne excels in ease of use, real-time detection, automated remediation, and seamless integration, enhancing security operations efficiently.
The most valuable features of Azure Kubernetes Service are its integration with Kubernetes, offering similar features for a seamless experience.
Since pricing is not a major concern, we chose the best fit for our application, which was specifically designed for this particular platform.
The integration with Azure Active Directory helped with the security of our applications.
This helps visualize potential attack paths and even suggests attack paths a malicious actor might take.
The infrastructure-as-code feature is helpful for discovering open ports in some of the modules.
This tool has been helpful for us. It allows us to search for vulnerabilities and provides evidence directly on the screen.

Featured Reviews

Daniel Wichinescki - PeerSpot reviewer
Has supported production deployments and simplified permission management though could reduce monitoring costs
For Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), we only used it to orchestrate the Kubernetes pods. We didn't use the other features. We only used the environment to start our application. I utilized the automatic scaling capabilities. The integration with Azure Active Directory helped with the security of our applications. I think Amazon EKS is better. EKS is the best because there are many features to use for scaling and to control the environments.
Ritesh P. - PeerSpot reviewer
It's more scalable and flexible than our previous solution because we don't need to install any agents
The reporting works well, but sometimes the severity classifications are inaccurate. Sometimes, it flags an issue as high-impact, but it should be a lower severity. For example, it might highlight an exposed AWS encryption key, a critical compliance issue, but it isn't tagged as a high-risk problem. That only happens about 10 percent of the time. It shows a true positive 80-90 percent of the time.
