Executive SummaryUpdated on Jun 3, 2026

SentinelOne Singularity Complete and Dell Data Protection - Endpoint Security Suite [EOL] are popular in the cybersecurity market. SentinelOne has an edge due to its advanced AI-driven features and flexible pricing.

Features: SentinelOne excels with its real-time threat detection, centralized dashboard, and AI-powered behavior detection. It offers autonomous threat management with a lightweight agent. Dell Data Protection focuses on robust data encryption, extensive control features, and policy enforcement, appealing for data integrity and compliance needs.

Room for Improvement: SentinelOne could enhance its integration with other security tools and reduce false positives. Its rollback feature, while beneficial, might need refinement. Better user education about AI capabilities could help users fully utilize the platform. Dell, being [EOL], lacks updates, which affects support and security efficacy. It could benefit from improved automation features and a more modern interface to enhance user experience.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: SentinelOne's cloud-based setup streamlines deployment and supports a fast response to technical issues. The platform is user-friendly, with customizable dashboards. Dell provided an on-premises setup, which was less efficient, with a slower customer service response, requiring more manual oversight.

Pricing and ROI: SentinelOne offers scalable pricing tiers, allowing businesses flexibility in choosing plans that fit their budgets, ensuring a better ROI. Dell, though providing strong security, required a higher upfront investment with less flexibility in cost management. The cost efficiency of SentinelOne makes it a preferred choice for varied organizational needs.

Senior Process Expert at A.P. Moller - Maersk

Gained full visibility and streamlined threat detection through behavior-based insights and AI integration

Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth. We have fine-tuned our security policies and allowed different levels of policies to get rid of those false positives. Currently, we are getting a fairly good amount of incidents that are not false positives or benign, but actionable items. The process is streamlined. In the initial days, the operations used to get involved in a lot of benign and other activities, but now the process is streamlined. We are leveraging the auto-detection and remediation plans. The operations teams are now more involved in other business roles as well, not just looking into the logs and fetching out what's happening there. They have fixed a lot of things. Initially, they didn't have IAC code drift detection, cloud posture management, or security posture management, but they have those now. They purchased different vendors and did a merger with that. They have now Prisma Cloud that gets integrated and now they are working with Cortex Cloud. Everything that was negative has now been addressed, and the product altogether looks to be in a very better and mature shape now. Currently, it's more or less detecting the workloads with AI-based best practices. Since most organizations are consuming AI agents and other things, we are looking forward to seeing what other feature enhancements Palo Alto can support in that.

Vaibhav Mahendra Kolhe

Soc Analyst at Softcell Technologies Limited

Automation has reduced alerts and freed the soc team to focus on faster incident response

Regarding mean time to respond, the improvements I see with SentinelOne Singularity Complete are that genuine files also get alerts. We are getting false positives, but we are also getting genuine true positive alerts. The improvement will be deep visibility because as I am using Splunk as a SIEM, I compare deep visibility with Splunk, but deep visibility has limited access with only a 14-day policy to retain logs. The improvement will be in overall policy management. The third point will be the complexity of policies. If we want some endpoints to use only USB or if we need to block USB on some points, the policy management is very complex. The fourth point will be that Mac OS and Linux don't have the rollback policy; that policy is only for Windows. These four points are improvements if SentinelOne Singularity Complete can address them. Data privacy and security when utilizing Purple AI is crucial for SentinelOne Singularity Complete, and SentinelOne Singularity Complete lacks in data security. Data security is very important in this world. In my organization, if we deploy SentinelOne Singularity Complete and we have integrated all the firewalls, all devices, and AWS devices to SentinelOne Singularity Complete, logs will be forwarded to SentinelOne Singularity Complete through SentinelOne Singularity Complete. However, SentinelOne Singularity Complete doesn't have data security solutions such as Forcepoint DLP or 48 layer; SentinelOne Singularity Complete doesn't have that DLP solution. From the data security point of view, SentinelOne Singularity Complete is not good.

Cons

"For Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, if I had to point out improvements, I would say the UI is still somewhat difficult for beginners."

"I have faced some issues with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks; there is room for improvement in the sense that certain options prevent us from seeing and segregating data."

"For working with the solution, you only really need a web browser, however, we've found that working on Chrome, for example, is horrible."

"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions. For example all folder restriction settings are Windows only. Traps 5.0+ does not have SAML / LDAP integration."

"It automatically detects security issues. It should be able to protect our network devices while operating autonomously."

"If they had pulse rate detection, it would be better."

"Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR does not detect malicious activity like in other anti-virus solutions like Trend Micro and Windows with Cisco."

"The solution should enhance the ADR and reporting."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"Implementation in a beta environment is necessary before rollout to the larger community."

"The solution’s user interface should be made more user-friendly."

"Deployment complexity is higher in Dell Data Protection - Endpoint Security Suite [EOL], and the user interface could be improved significantly."

"I consider the product pretty expensive, so from an improvement perspective, I would like the pricing to be better."

"The restore feed needs improvement."

"Whenever we talk about reporting, I have a chance to look at the reporting, and in my opinion, it's not user-friendly."

"The solution could be more user-friendly."

"To improve SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, I want to continue working on this and provide even more data, more visibility, and everything clearer and faster."

"Improvement seems necessary, especially with the focus on enhanced support."

"We'd like SentinelOne to upgrade automatically. It doesn't automatically update the agent if some system has an older version of the SentinelOne. It has to be triggered from the console."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete takes up a lot of memory in Google Chrome, which sometimes causes it to lag, so this is an area for improvement. The solution could be improved by increasing its efficiency within the web browser."

"The drawbacks I have identified with SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint are that they should work on being more responsive than CrowdStrike."

"I really haven't done enough to really see any improvements."

"For SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, the first issue I dislike is the high CPU utilization, and the second is a very high number of false positive alerts from the EDR."

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's the most expensive solution, but features-wise, it's quite strong. It's very good for protection, so the results are very good in the case of protection. I would rate it a two out of ten in terms of pricing."

"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."

"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."

"It's way too expensive, but security is expensive. You pay for your licensing, and then you pay for someone to monitor the stuff."

"It is "expensive" and flexible."

"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."

"The price was fine."

"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"It is an expensive solution."

"You'll need to pay more than the product's original price for the support."

"It is more expensive than one of its competitors."

"Just buy the Capture Client and buy the installer itself in a license of 100,000, or whatever is needed. You don't need to invest in any management tools because they are already installed, and maintenance from the client will keep everything up and running."

"Overall, it was a good experience. It is pretty easy for us to increase the number."

"The pricing of SentinelOne is less than McAfee."

"My understanding is that we did a pretty good deal on SentinelOne. A part of that is because we were their customers very early on, and we also use their products a lot. We are interested in the new products that come out. We go to their demos, and we go to their events. We do save a lot of money. It is not cheap, but it is worth it. We spend a lot of money on a lot of things, and most of them do not do as much as SentinelOne."

"The cost of Singularity Complete is similar to our previous solution but it comes with additional options such as Kubernetes integration."

"The pricing model is simple."

"When we were checking out different platforms, we did get a price from Microsoft, and it was unreasonable. SentinelOne was definitely reasonable and worth the money."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is reasonably priced."
