Badri Anand Santhanam - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhancing operational 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 most valuable features are the workflow engine, calculations, and security rules."
"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 content, reporting, and workflow features stand out as the most valuable aspects."
"IBM OpenPages saves time in my work as a developer."
"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."
"The product can scale as needed."
"SentinelOne is preferred because of its great features and nominal cost."
"The best feature of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is that you don't need to configure a lot with it because it provides an unmatched layer of protection out of the box."
"The most valuable features are threat hunting, the ability to disconnect or disable a machine's network connection in real time, and the ability to restore the connection once the issue is resolved quickly."
"The solution can search for hidden and dormant threats on encrypted traffic in your environment."
"The portal is the most valuable feature because it provides us with a single pane of glass view and is highly intuitive."
"The offline protection offered by SentinelOne Singularity Complete for my devices is valuable."
"The tool has helped us streamline and centralize things with a single solution. We are a small organization with a handful of people managing multiple sites. It is a simple tool with an easy-to-use UI. The product has an intuitive and up-to-date GUI."
 

Cons

"IBM OpenPages could improve by adding more conditions to workflows, as some existing conditions might not work and can produce errors."
"I believe there's room for improvement in establishing connections with external information."
"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."
"IBM needs to work on pricing for organizations with around 100 users, as the licensing model is not competitive enough for SMEs."
"Some self-relationships are not available in OpenPages' relationship model."
"It would be useful to have more out-of-the-box functionality, especially triggers and calculations."
"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."
"One of the things they could do is extend the product range to include Android and iPhone so that you could have the app on your phone as well. There is probably something going on there with that, but that's something that they're lacking at the moment. For instance, if I was to have to recommend a client to protect their phone, I'd have to recommend Norton or something else. I don't have an answer within the SentinelOne solution."
"One area for improvement is automated deployment. I use it through a group policy. I put in the PC name, and when the user logs in, if the PC is in that group, it attempts an MSI install through Active Directory via GPO. That seems to play a little havoc and can conflict with manual installs, causing issues where it wants to delete and reinstall the client."
"It seems like they are doing a lot with their automatic updates. They can maybe slow down the actual release cycle to make it easier to deploy the most recent and then do it using the live update. They can continue to work on that because trying to get agent changes through change management platforms and get approvals and testing can be quite difficult."
"I'd like to see more documentation."
"Generally, the stability is good, but I would like to see better stability from the solution. The stability issue is partially a con of a behavioral-based product, but being behavioral-based, it also has a lot of pros."
"I would like to see a better control panel for the managed service side of it."
"I am not a fan of the UI and feel it has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The one I use is $6 a month per device. Some are $4 and there are some that are more than that."
"There are cheaper options out there that I know are not as effective. I have administered several of them, not for this organization but for others. The thing I like about SentinelOne is that I know that if it raises an alert, it is worth looking at, so we are not dealing with a lot of false positives. It is rare."
"The pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete is competitive."
"The pricing level for this service and application was very interesting for us. I don't know exactly what the price was, but apparently it was a big surprise that the SOC was also included in our pricing model."
"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."
"While SentinelOne Singularity Complete carries a higher price tag than some endpoint security solutions, customers find its robust features and return on investment justify the cost."
"Its price can be lower because I'm seeing competition from another vendor who beats it on commercials."
"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."
