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.
Saif Ullah Khan - PeerSpot reviewer
Boosts security by automatically blocking applications or activities, but query responses have been slower recently
For the past six months, we have been facing some issues. Because it is a cloud-based infrastructure, it has been getting slower. There are no bugs because they release updates continuously. We highly appreciate that, but during hunting or running a query on different logs, the time frame has increased in the past six months. It takes longer to give us the results. Another issue is the lack of proper documentation. During investigations, there is no proper documentation available. This is a problem because many people are saying there should be proper documentation explaining what CrowdStrike captures from the machine and the meaning of it.
Santiago Gomez - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved the organization's PCI compliance with data loss prevention
I use the solution on a Macintosh computer and it has issues and does not work when I try to log in from the Safari Browser, but it works fine when I log in from the Google Chrome browser. The console has issues when the login is done through a Safari Browser. The console has to be more competitive and the compatibility of the browser needs to be better. I want to know about Skyhigh's competitiveness with other brands and about the vulnerability assessment and micro segmentations. I know Skyhigh has other products, but right now, I am studying what this new product is about. They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers an intuitive user interface that lets us navigate quickly and easily."
"The Offensive Security Engine, powered by impressive AI/ML capabilities, seamlessly integrates with cloud infrastructure to analyze data and provide optimal security solutions."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security released a new security graph tool that helps us identify the root issue. Other tools give you a pass/fail type of profile on all misconfigurations, and those will run into the thousands. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's graphing algorithm connects various components together and tries to identify what is severe and what is not. It can correlate various vulnerabilities and datasets to test them on the back end to pinpoint the real issue."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security stands out for its user-friendly interface and intuitive software, making it easy to navigate and use."
"The UI is very good."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers valuable features like runtime notifications. These alerts come to my account, ensuring that if any port or component within my infrastructure is opened or compromised, I am informed immediately. It highlights issues within minutes or even seconds."
"It gives me the information I need."
"The agentless vulnerability scanning is great."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"It is fully cloud-based, so we don't need to invest in third-party agents repeatedly."
"Falcon is a cloud-based technology, so its resource usage is light. You deploy the agents to your endpoints, but the processing is done on the cloud, so you're CPU utilization is only about 2 percent. Some others solutions use between 30 to 60 percent."
"It provides alerts on suspicious command executions, helping us safeguard our systems."
"CrowdStrike utilizes signatureless technology, eliminating the need for regular signature updates on endpoint systems."
"We like the solution's management and monitoring tools for our network. We use it to monitor our network between workstations and outside our organization. The AI provides useful visualizations of our network on a dashboard."
"It helps us by automatically blocking certain applications or activities."
"The immediate mitigation of potential threats and instant alerts are valuable."
"The stability is the most valuable feature. We haven't had any issues with the product."
"It also prevents you from writing data to your Gmail and does not allow you to move your data outside of the corporate system. That is the most important feature for me."
"The other products that I have evaluated do not have the scalability options that McAfee has."
"In terms of their compatibility with major cloud providers, in terms of their abilities, capabilities, and features, they exceed everyone's capabilities in the CASB market."
"DLP policies and anomalies."
"I like the encrypted disk feature and the endpoint protection."
"It is easy to configure rules."
"The product has a very high rating from reviewers. It's a well-respected product."
 

Cons

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is an excellent CSPM tool, but its CWPP features need improvement, and there is scope for more application security posture management features."
"To enhance the notification system's efficiency, resolved issues should be promptly removed from the portal."
"The cloud-based operations might pose challenges in areas with limited or unavailable internet connectivity. Desktop features might be useful for smaller organizations with less complex security needs."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has limited legacy system support and may not fully support older operating systems or legacy environments."
"The Automation tab is an add-on that doesn’t work properly. They provide a list of scripts that don’t work and I have asked support to assist but they won’t help. When running on various endpoints the script doesn’t work and if it does, it’s only a couple. There are a lot of useful scripts that would be beneficial to run forensics, event logs, and process lists running on the endpoint."
"Cloud Native Security's reporting could be better. We are unable to see which images are impacted. Several thousand images have been deployed, so if we can see some application-specific information in the dashboard, we can directly send that report to the team that owns the application. We'd also like the option to download the report from the portal instead of waiting for the report to be sent to our email."
"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."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can be improved by developing a comprehensive set of features that allow for automated workflows."
"The UI part needs to be improved."
"There should be cloud storage scanning. We would like to have cloud storage vulnerability and threat management on any cloud storage."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is expensive."
"There is room for improvement in the solution's ability to handle Linux systems."
"For the past six months, we have been facing some issues. Because it is a cloud-based infrastructure, it has been getting slower."
"The file integrity monitoring feature should be enhanced and offered more control"
"The main area for improvement is pricing, as it is quite expensive."
"The CrowdStrike partner portal documentation could be improved to provide proper instructions for integrating their products."
"They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support."
"Support for securing more cloud apps."
"It would be nice to be able to get more advanced search functions to filter out data and quickly obtain the data that we need."
"Needs integration with other technology ecosystems."
"The solution has room for improvement in its DDoS protection."
"The performance of the tool can be improved to provide faster report generation."
"The initial setup was challenging, and the documentation could be improved to make it easier."
"It is an expensive solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Its pricing was a little less than other providers."
"While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers robust protection, its high cost may be prohibitive for small and medium-sized businesses."
"We found it to be fine for us. Its price was competitive. It was something we were happy with. We are not a Fortune 500 company, so I do not know how pricing scales at the top end, but for our cloud environment, it works very well."
"It was reasonable pricing for me."
"It is not that expensive. There are some tools that are double the cost of PingSafe. It is good on the pricing side."
"PingSafe is less expensive than other options."
"I would rate the cost a seven out of ten with ten being the most costly."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is very expensive for us. Last month, we had a big issue that took much time and money to resolve. It slowed down our business and required our management team to get involved. We had a problem similar to the "Blue Screen of Death" issue many US companies faced. This incident used up many of our IT resources in just a few months. That's why we're looking for a replacement tool now."
"It's an expensive product"
"CrowdStrike Falcon is very expensive."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is pricy."
"I am not the one who handled the pricing. A different team worked on it, but it is pretty expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable, neither overly expensive nor excessively cheap, making it competitive compared to other market options."
"The price is not too high, it is okay."
"It is expensive, but it adds value."
"It's an expensive solution."
"Some of our clients have a perpetual license and pay additional support yearly."
"They definitely charge a huge amount. All the security service providers charge a huge amount."
"The price of the solution is good and we pay an annual license."
"There is a license required to use this solution and it is paid annually. The price is reasonable."
"The solution is quite expensive. As we take add-ons continuously as per our customer's requirements, there are additional charges."
"Pricing is not out of reach."
"Have a risk-based approach towards pricing."
