Easy to install, runs smoothly, and offers good performance
Carbon Black was sold to Broadcom, and VMware basically was the owner of the Carbon Black. Now Broadcom is the owner of VMware. As the solution has changed hands, I expect some changes in licensing and in support. It remains to be seen if that will be good or bad.

Improved efficiency with automated pricing and streamlined console
We are based in India, and we need to have these resources. We use it with smaller teams on security, leveraging expertise from SentinelOne The most valuable functions are automated pricing and ensuring the console is clean.  Additionally, it helps complete RC tasks and get the right information…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The installation process is quick and easy."
"Carbon Black provides an overview of all our assets and their status."
"The valuable features are threat hunting, threat intelligence feeds, and it culls all the activities of the endpoint. Additionally, the ML and AI engines are really good."
"The greatest value of MDR involves the tests, reporting and alerts, so that we may respond immediately."
"The most valuable feature is protection against ransomware and malware."
"SentinelOne is a comprehensive solution for protecting SOAP-based web services and AWS-based cloud infrastructure."
"The SentinelOne Active EDR is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable functions are automated pricing and ensuring the console is clean."
"SentinelOne Vigilance is an endpoint security tool with quarantining, dashboards showing us information, and many capabilities like manual and automatic quarantine of environmental issues."
"The most valuable feature is that it works and isn't compromised. Other solutions I have used have all been compromised and SentinelOne is the only one that hasn't been compromised as far as I understand."
"I would rate SentinelOne's customer service and support a five out of five."
"The endpoint security software is great."
 

Cons

"In the future, it would be great if they could provide endpoint management and the ADR solution together in this package."
"As the solution has changed hands, I expect some changes in licensing and in support. It remains to be seen if that will be good or bad."
"Carbon Black's support could be better."
"Sometimes, SentinelOne Vigilance also detects false positives, which are not true. In such cases, we need to make changes in the policies on the dashboard accordingly."
"SentinelOne Vigilance's integration capabilities with other products can be considered as an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The support response time is not the issue, however, sometimes, the answers provided are not fully satisfactory due to the nature of the technology and issue complexity."
"Occasionally during an update, customers may temporarily be without protection until the upgrade is complete."
"The tool needs improvement in clear communication and detection."
"SentinelOne Vigilance doesn't actively monitor incoming emails or offer an email plugin for Outlook."
"The only thing I'm not sure about is I haven't deployed it on any mobile devices."
"It is not easy to remove the customer without the dashboard."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of this solution is inexpensive compare with others. The company went out of its way to provide us with a favorable discount. However, there is room for improving the current licensing model and the price of some of the fees. The model is complex and could be streamlined."
"The licensing cost depends on the number of connected devices and whether you purchase additional services."
"The solution’s pricing is very reasonable."
"The tool's pricing is slightly cheaper than other alternatives. It's not just about licensing costs; because we already have it implemented, we can save money on deployment and initial setup. Additionally, SentinelOne Vigilance is slightly cheaper in licensing, maybe around 10-15 percent cheaper."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"SentinelOne Vigilance is priced in a normal range."
"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten since it is a very highly-priced solution."
"I rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten since it is really expensive, but it is well worth what my company gets."
"I give the cost a three out of ten."
