Badri Anand Santhanam - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhancing enterprise risk management and reporting capabilities with insightful dashboards and automated features.
IBM OpenPages offers strong reporting capabilities with Cognos integration, providing standard tabular reports, various charts, and powerful dashboards for different lines of defense. It caters to the first line managing risks and controls, the second line of SMEs providing oversight, and the independent audit function with an internal audit management module. The solution is more intuitive and task-based, allowing better involvement of the risk function across different lines of defense. The automated features translate into reporting capabilities, and data can be easily extracted and downloaded in different formats.
Asim Naeem - PeerSpot reviewer
It integrates well with other platforms, is user-friendly, and is stable
SentinelOne Singularity Complete integrates with our other security solutions, correlating data from NDR, ADR, SIEM, and XDR tools. All this information is consolidated within SentinelOne, providing a centralized access point. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us streamline our security operations by consolidating multiple solutions into a single platform. We are currently in the process of acquiring a threat intelligence platform to complete our security stack. We use Ranger to monitor our network and track connected devices. This is crucial because it helps us quickly identify unauthorized machines connected to our infrastructure, including personal devices. We have additional security measures in place, but Ranger provides an extra layer of protection. It also alerts us if the SentinelOne Singularity Complete agent is missing from any new or existing machines, allowing us to take appropriate action. SentinelOne Ranger's agentless and hardware-independent nature is crucial for our environment with 26,000 endpoints, as manual management of such a large number would be extremely challenging. Ranger uses a multi-layered approach to prevent vulnerable devices from being compromised. We employ scanners, network configurations, and a risk scanner to assess devices, endpoints, servers, and cloud infrastructures. Vulnerability reports and timelines for remediation are shared with device owners or custodians. This proactive strategy enables us to address vulnerabilities efficiently and secure our infrastructure. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has significantly enhanced our security posture. While no system is impenetrable, this solution has brought us closer to achieving a high level of protection, ensuring we maintain at least a 90 percent security level. Our team is dedicated to refining alerts and eliminating false positives from our solutions. Additionally, a team is responsible for identifying and excluding alerts from the solution. We can manually expedite this process by reviewing these elements and utilizing our security tools. We have been able to reduce the alert volume by 20 percent. Our 30-member Security Operations Center team has been able to redirect their focus to other tasks due to the time saved after implementing SentinelOne Singularity Complete. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us improve our mean time to detect threats, which we accomplish using the Vigilance service for detection and response. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us decrease our organizational risk. We utilize the Security Scorecard to manage our security posture, which has remained steady at 90 percent.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The content, reporting, and workflow features stand out as the most valuable aspects."
"The most valuable features are the workflow engine, calculations, and security rules."
"Everything about IBM OpenPages is valuable, particularly when compared to other solutions in the market like MetricStream, from which we switched due to its feasibility, user-friendliness, and performance."
"IBM OpenPages saves time in my work as a developer."
"IBM OpenPages provides time savings in recording risk management components."
"The ability to keep a record of internal incidents in the company, and also the monitoring of Key Indicators."
"The remediation and rollback features are pretty impressive."
"It has helped to reduce our organizational risks."
"The most valuble feature of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is the recovery and zero-day detection."
"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is the STAR Rules."
"I appreciate the network control as well as the device control."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Vigilance Respond Pro monitoring. You don't have to have a dedicated SOC and worry about staffing."
"The solution is easy to set up."
"SentinelOne’s Rollback is its best feature."
 

Cons

"IBM OpenPages needs improvement in its UI. Currently, it is difficult to see the relationships (associations/parents) between all items unless you click on the item itself."
"I believe there's room for improvement in establishing connections with external information."
"IBM OpenPages could improve by adding more conditions to workflows, as some existing conditions might not work and can produce errors."
"IBM needs to work on pricing for organizations with around 100 users, as the licensing model is not competitive enough for SMEs."
"It would be useful to have more out-of-the-box functionality, especially triggers and calculations."
"Some self-relationships are not available in OpenPages' relationship model."
"They need to improve how we install the software."
"Managing the false positives creates additional management overhead. The behavioral analysis engine might misinterpret real user behavior as malware. For example, a drafter was cleaning up a Revit folder and deleting 4,000 files. That looks like ransomware. The SentinelOne agent kicked his computer off the network."
"I rate Singularity Complete a seven out of ten for affordability. It's more expensive than our previous solution, but it does its job well. At the same time, there is some room for improvement. Cheaper is always better."
"Singularity's reporting isn't that great. The dashboards could be more customizable. It could be better integrated with other tools. SIEM tools provide better feeds. Singularity is a separate product altogether. It does not give enough information to integrate with different solutions to correlate better."
"SentinelOne's performance and the accuracy of its incident filtering could be improved."
"There should be more integration models with different security operations tools or soft tools."
"The learning curve was a little steep."
"When comparing SentinelOne to CrowdStrike, I find that CrowdStrike has more comprehensive vulnerability assessment tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is fairly priced."
"Its cost is yearly. It is not much costlier than other leading products available in the market. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing."
"The cost of endpoint protection is fairly reasonable."
"SentinelOne's pricing could be lower."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is expensive, but we must be willing to pay for it if we want a high level of protection."
"You have to look at the kinds of problems you can end up with and the fact that you want security against them, and then SentinelOne is not expensive."
"Its cost is similar to Trend Micro, but the protection is much better."
"I rate Singularity Complete four out of 10 for affordability. SentinelOne costs more than traditional antivirus solutions, but we get more out of it. It hasn't saved us any money, but it's an EDR solution, so we get a lot of value from it."
