Rapid threat management and diverse technology integration for effective monitoring
Expel has made it easier for companies to monitor and manage various log sources. With its vast integration portfolio, customers can efficiently monitor diverse environments. Time to value is quick, as Expel can turn their service up very rapidly. They have both automated active responses and human processes that quicken threat resolution.
Prathamesh Samant - PeerSpot reviewer
Effective integration and threat hunting capabilities boost operational ease, but interface improvements are needed
I would like to improve the dashboard in SentinelOne Singularity MDR, as it could be much better, along with the reporting structure. The granularity of policies and ease of policy management from the console could be made better, while my experience from a feature standpoint has been good overall. Regarding summary reports provided from SentinelOne Singularity MDR, I find the reporting structure could be much better in terms of granularity. Additionally, for C-suite executives, there can be more non-technical content that provides a bird's eye view of organizational risk posture, rather than just detailed technical analyses. This high-level perspective on the organization's risk would be highly beneficial at the management level.

"I would like to improve the dashboard in SentinelOne Singularity MDR, as it could be much better, along with the reporting structure."
"The integration with Microsoft 365 for SentinelOne Singularity MDR isn't quite as effective as with Field Effect."
