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.

Helps with Zero-day protection
We use the solution for Zero-day protection.  The solution stops any kind of remote code execution.  The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load.  I have been using the product for a year.  I would rate the tool's stability a six out of ten.  I would…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cloud Native Security's evidence-based reporting allows us to prioritize issues by understanding their impact, helping us resolve the most important problems first."
"The agentless vulnerability scanning is great."
"Cloud Native Security's best feature is its ability to identify hard-coded secrets during pull request reviews."
"Singularity Cloud Workload Security provides us with better security detection and more visibility. It is another resource that we can use to detect vulnerabilities in our company's systems. For example, it can help us detect new file processes that we are not familiar with, which could be used by attackers to exploit our systems. Singularity Cloud Workload Security can also help us diagnose and analyze data to determine whether it is malicious or not. Singularity Cloud Workload Security is like another pair of eyes that can help us protect our systems from cyberattacks."
"It has a user-friendly dashboard that I can access without any difficulty."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is on top of protecting ephemeral workloads."
"Singularity Cloud Security offers autonomous response capabilities, automatically remediating threats and restoring affected files without manual intervention."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is excellent, and I highly recommend it."
"It provides alerts on suspicious command executions, helping us safeguard our systems."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature of Falcon Cloud Security is its comprehensive threat-hunting ability."
"The threat intelligence is the most vital feature"
"It's easy to gather insights and conduct analysis about existing threats."
"The most significant benefit is how quickly malware and other malicious attacks are detected."
"I find the easy installation process, quick detection capabilities, and the cloud-based console very useful for this solution."
"The scalability of the product has been great."
"We use the solution for Zero-day protection."
 

Cons

"A few YouTube videos could be helpful. There isn't a lot of information out there to look at."
"When we get a new finding from SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, I wish we could get an alert in the console, so we can work on it before we see it in the report. It would be very useful for the team that is actively working on the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security platform, so we can close the issue the same day before it appears in the daily report."
"While it is good, I think the solution's console could be improved."
"The price is on the higher side. The dashboard can be more detailed."
"The cost has the potential for improvement."
"One of our use cases was setting up a firewall for our endpoints, specifically for our remote users... We were hoping to utilize SentinelOne's firewall capabilities, but there were limitations on how many URLs we could implement. Because of those limitations on the number of URLs, we weren't able to utilize that feature in the way we had hoped to."
"The cloud-based operations might pose challenges in areas with limited or unavailable internet connectivity."
"There is room for improvement in application security posture management features, and SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is on the costlier side."
"The threat intelligence and user behavioral analysis could be more comprehensive."
"I think the UI could be improved, but the technical support said CrowdStrike will improve the UI in the near future. But right now, it’s so messy."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is expensive."
"The tool should do some more tests before going for updates automatically."
"The tool's scalability is low."
"Incorporating threat intelligence into the system would be a valuable addition."
"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."
"For the past six months, we have been facing some issues. Because it is a cloud-based infrastructure, it has been getting slower."
"The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PingSafe falls somewhere in the middle price range, neither particularly cheap nor expensive."
"I wasn't sure what to expect from the pricing, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a little less than I thought."
"The pricing for PingSafe in India was more reasonable than other competitors."
"While I'm slightly out of touch with pricing, I know SentinelOne is much cheaper than other products."
"The features included in PingSafe justify its price point."
"PingSafe is fairly priced."
"PingSafe's primary advantage is its ability to consolidate multiple tools into a single user interface, but, beyond this convenience, it may not offer significant additional benefits to justify its price."
"I am not involved in the pricing, but it is cost-effective."
"It is expensive, but it adds value."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is pricy."
"It's an expensive package but does what it says it will do."
"The pricing is fair for what you get. I'd rate them a solid nine out of ten in terms of pricing."
"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."
"I am not the one who handled the pricing. A different team worked on it, but it is pretty expensive."
"The price is not too high, it is okay."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is very expensive."
"I would rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
