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.

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 dashboard is intuitive in terms of design and functionality. Additionally, it gives me an email for all the findings that are open."
"It gives me the information I need."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers comprehensive security posture management."
"I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security a ten out of ten."
"The offensive security feature is valuable because it publicly detects the offensive and vulnerable things present in our domain or applications. It checks any applications with public access. Some of the applications give public access to certain files or are present over a particular domain. It detects and lets us know with evidence. That is quite good. It is protecting our infrastructure quite well."
"I like CSPM the most. It captures a lot of alerts within a short period of time. When an alert gets triggered on the cloud, it throws an alert within half an hour, which is very reasonable. It is a plus point for us."
"I recommend SentinelOne due to its high-security capabilities, which are essential to safeguard data and systems from potential threats."
"Cloud Native Security is a tool that has good monitoring features."
"I find the easy installation process, quick detection capabilities, and the cloud-based console very useful for this solution."
"I have contacted customer service, and they are fast."
"The RTR feature stands out as particularly valuable to me due to its capability to log into machines."
"Technical support is helpful."
"It's easy to gather insights and conduct analysis about existing threats."
"The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security are Cloud Security Posture Management and Cloud Workload Protection, offering more visibility and protection across our cloud environment."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"I think the overall solution should be rated a ten out of ten."
"We use the solution for Zero-day protection."
 

Cons

"For vulnerabilities, they are showing CVE ID. The naming convention should be better so that it indicates the container where a vulnerability is present. Currently, they are only showing CVE ID, but the same CVE ID might be present in multiple containers. We would like to have the container name so that we can easily fix the issue."
"The documentation that I use for the initial setup can be more detailed or written in a more user-friendly language to avoid troubles."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can improve by eliminating 100 percent of the false positives."
"A beneficial improvement for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security would be integration with Jira, allowing for a more streamlined ticketing system."
"When we request any changes, they must be reflected in the next update."
"The Kubernetes scanning on the Oracle Cloud needs to be improved. It's on the roadmap. AWS has this capability, but it's unavailable for Oracle Cloud."
"Crafting customized policies can be tricky."
"The areas with room for improvement include the cost, which is higher compared to other security platforms. The dashboard can also be laggy."
"The user interface needs improvement as it's sometimes difficult to locate specific dashboards or reports."
"The main area for improvement is pricing, as it is quite expensive."
"The tool is expensive."
"There is room for improvement in the solution's ability to handle Linux systems."
"The tool should do some more tests before going for updates automatically."
"Different file options should be available, and clients should be able to select from the options."
"One area for improvement in Falcon Cloud Security is the support portal."
"The tool's scalability is low."
"The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Their pricing appears to be based simply on the number of accounts we have, which is common for cloud-based products."
"PingSafe is affordable."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is costly."
"The pricing is somewhat high compared to other market tools."
"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."
"The features included in PingSafe justify its price point."
"PingSafe's pricing is good because it provides us with a solution."
"I am not involved in the pricing, but it is cost-effective."
"It's an expensive package but does what it says it will do."
"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."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is very expensive."
"Its price is moderate."
"The price is not too high, it is okay."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is pricy."
"It's an expensive product"
"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."
