Enhancing workflow with automation and comprehensive security monitoring
Since I have been using it, I have seen many improvements. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is an excellent CSSPM tool, but the CSC CWPP features need improvement. There is scope for more application security posture management features and other than that, there are not many ASPM solutions on the market, and existing ones are more costly. I would prefer to see SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security develop into a single pane of glass for ASPM and CSPM, and I would also appreciate runtime protection highlighted immediately if I'm changing anything in my environment. The dashboard needs more widgets added so that customers or users can see everything on the dashboard itself without needing to go too deep.

Has improved threat detection accuracy and helped monitor endpoints across hybrid environments
The most valuable capabilities of CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security relate to preventing attacks caused by human error, such as when someone plugs in a USB device or downloads something without caution. It automatically blocks duplication and activities that could result in data loss, effectively preventing unintended copying of data to personal devices. Deduplication prevention is definitely the most valuable feature. CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security excels in threat detection with a vast investigation structure, allowing us to verify suspicious activities to identify root causes. It helps us trace back to the origin and fix issues, making it a user-friendly tool for this kind of detection. CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is built on AI and ML technology, enabling it to detect various threats and block suspicious activities immediately, which is particularly effective compared to traditional AVs and EDRs. The analytics provided by CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is key for maintaining a proactive security posture. Its AI and ML foundations offer extensive information on threats and suspicious activities, making it renowned for analysis in the industry.

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

"The most valuable aspect of Singularity Cloud Security is its unified dashboard."
"The monitoring tool has comprehensive monitoring features."
"Cloud Native Security's most valuable features include cloud misconfiguration detection and remediation, compliance monitoring, a robust authentication security engine, and cloud threat detection and response capabilities."
"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."
"Cloud Native Security's evidence-based reporting allows us to prioritize issues by understanding their impact, helping us resolve the most important problems first."
"Singularity Cloud Native Security provides us with a platform to scan instances when they are getting created, and the dashboard helps us to identify the critical issues."
"The UI is responsive and user-friendly."
"It saves time, makes your environment more secure, and improves compliance. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helps with audits, ensuring that you are following best practices for cloud security. You don't need to be an expert to use it and improve your security."
"The threat detection capability of CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security has always been the major seller, and it works effectively."
"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."
"Cloud security posture management (CSPM) is most valuable."
"The immediate mitigation of potential threats and instant alerts are valuable."
"The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon include its automation capabilities, efficacy, and lower risk."
"It's easy to gather insights and conduct analysis about existing threats."
"Technical support is helpful."
"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."
"We use the solution for Zero-day protection."
 

Cons

"I export CSV. I cannot export graphs. Restricting it to the CSV format has its own disadvantages. These are all machine IP addresses and information. I cannot change it to the JSON format. The export functionality can be improved."
"I would like additional integrations."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security filtering has some areas that cause problems, and to achieve single sign-on functionality, a break-glass feature, which is currently unavailable, is necessary."
"There is scope for more application security posture management features. Additionally, the runtime protection needs attention."
"While the future roadmap presented by SentinelOne appears promising, I hope the envisioned advancements are realistically achievable and that the gap between current offerings and long-term goals is not too significant."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's current documentation could be improved to better assist customers during the cluster onboarding process."
"If I had to pick a complaint, it would be the way the hosts are listed in the tool. You have different columns separated by endpoint name, Cloud Account, and Cloud Instances ID. I wish there was something where we could change the endpoint name and not use just the IP address. We would like to have custom names or our own names for the instances. If I had a complaint, that would be it, but so far, it meets all the needs that we have."
"The recommended actions aren't always specific, so it might suggest recommendations that don't apply to the particular infrastructure code I'm reviewing."
"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."
"The only challenge lies in token verification."
"Incorporating threat intelligence into the system would be a valuable addition."
"The tool could give us more templates so that people who are not updated with the platform can easily get acquainted with how to secure and utilize the product more."
"I would not say the tool's integration capabilities were straightforward because the complexity depends on the volume of the data."
"One area for improvement in Falcon Cloud Security is the support portal."
"The pricing is very high and should be improved."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is expensive."
"The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PingSafe is cost-effective for the amount of infrastructure we have. It's reasonable for what they offer compared to our previous solution. It's at least 25 percent to 30 percent less."
"The licensing is easy to understand and implement, with some flexibility to accommodate dynamic environments."
"For pricing, it currently seems to be in line with market rates."
"It's a fair price for what you get. We are happy with the price as it stands."

"PingSafe is affordable."
"The tool is cost-effective."
"PingSafe is priced reasonably for our workload."
"The price is not too high, it is okay."
"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 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."
"It's an expensive product"
"Its price is moderate."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is very expensive."
"I am not the one who handled the pricing. A different team worked on it, but it is pretty expensive."
"I would rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
