Featured Reviews

Cees Van Den Haak - PeerSpot reviewer
A product with an easy setup phase that helps manage attacks and vulnerabilities
The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that you can manage and react to vulnerabilities and attacks on all the workstations or laptops. You can put certain workstations and isolation. With ESET PROTECT, you see only one machine that is protected, but with ESET Inspect, you see all the machines that are protected in an environment.
Vidya Shree - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to manage, zero-trust option and supports both Linux and macOS
SentinelOne supports both Linux and macOS. All SentinelOne features were equally supported across Windows, Linux, and Mac, whereas CrowdStrike was more heavy on the Windows side. They did not support all features on Linux. The Singularity console provides a unified view. But we already had similar dashboards available to the ones we had engineered ourselves. So it's not a deal-breaker. For us, it was about supporting multiple operating systems. That was more important. So, these dashboards we have are third-party tools integrated with SentinelOne.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The rules are the best and most useful features."
"I find the multilayered endpoint security the most valuable feature."
"Scalability-wise, it is a very good solution."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's greatest asset lies in its user-friendly interface, which allows for easy navigation and thorough analysis of incidents."
"Rules are the most valuable feature of ESET Inspect. They are created through XML language, and they track and filter events from endpoints. If the event matches the rule, the rule is triggered. Exceptions are the second most valuable feature because it gives you the power to filter false positives in large numbers. The third most valuable feature is the Learning mode that facilitates making exceptions for known processes with a good reputation."
"The product's most valuable features are its performance and stability."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's most valuable feature is EDR."
"For me, the most valuable feature is the Deep Visibility. It gives you the ability to search all actions that were taken on a specific machine, like writing register keys, executing software, opening, reading, and writing files. All that stuff is available from the SentinelOne console. I'm able to see which software is permanent on a machine, and how that happened, whether by registry keys or writing it to a special folder on the machine."
"Unlike other endpoint solutions like Kaspersky or Trend Micro, SentinelOne's agents are exceptionally lightweight, updating seamlessly without consuming significant network or system resources."
"The external drive scanning is great."
"The most valuable feature of Singularity Complete is the Ranger function."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the user-friendly interface."
"The XDR capability is quite good."
"The visibility and, obviously, the protection aspects are second to none when it comes to speed. Another thing we fall back on is the option to roll back an endpoint if it is infected. There is a shadow copy so that if a PC downloads malicious content, we can roll it back to the state it was in before that package was imported."
"The solution has helped reduce our alerts."
 

Cons

"One area that needs improvement for the product is ransomware protection, which does not offer complete security."
"Every vendor is working on making the job of SOC analysts easier, with fewer false positives and more precise detections. ESET uses LiveGrid technology that provides feedback on the reputation of files and operations. It's hard to eliminate all of the false positives, but hopefully, we'll see some improvement with the advances in AI."
"It is not a stable product. We were disappointed in the stability of this product in comparison to McAffee."
"The platform's price could be better."
"It may be difficult for a first-time customer to understand all of the functions that are available to him."
"The product is complex to configure, and there are too many errors that are not errors, making it an area that can be considered for improvement."
"The solution could improve the consumption of resources. The RAM and CPU usage increases during usage which can cause issues. We have three separate services and it would be beneficial if all were executed from one agent limiting the over usage of system resources."
"SentinelOne could improve by reducing the price."
"Security could always be better."
"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 UI appears to be flat, and I wish to have the ability to customize it with features and buttons that are tailored to our needs."
"The MDM functionality and maturity still need improvement."
"There is an area of improvement is agent health monitoring, which would give us the ability to cap and manage resources used by the SentinelOne agent. We had issues with this in our environment. We reached out to SentinelOne about it, and they were very prompt in adding it into their roadmap."
"One area of SentinelOne that definitely has room for improvement is the reporting. The canned reports are clunky and we haven't been able to pull a lot of good information directly from them."
"I would like to see category-based web filtering."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I feel it is a very expensive product."
"The pricing and licensing are the big issue now, in my opinion. If the price was less than other companies, or a one-time charge for service was available, I think there would be more users of this solution."
"This is true in the case of licensing, we do not have the most expensive products, and we don't have the cheapest product, it's somewhere in the middle. Perhaps a little higher from the middle, but we are known for what we provide to our customers, and they are pleased."
"The platform's licensing is affordable and straightforward."
"The platform is expensive; it could be cheaper."
"The license is per user."
"When it came to the price compared to other solutions we tested, SentinelOne Singularity gave us the price of our expectations whereas CrowdStrike could not."
"The pricing appears to be pretty affordable."
"The pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete is competitive."
"It is comparatively cheap in the market and provides a good price point."
"Its cost is similar to Trend Micro, but the protection is much better."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is fairly priced."
"The pricing is comparable with other vendors but some customers find it a bit costly."
