Gabriele  Meneguzzi - PeerSpot reviewer
GRC Practice Leader at Stratos Analytics
Have improved operational control and simplified internal workflows through a clear user interface
The most useful features in IBM OpenPages are the workflow features and front-end. The workflow feature in IBM OpenPages is very flexible, easy to configure, and can help design every kind of process, while the front-end is very useful, clear, simple, and dynamic. The benefit of a centralized platform in risk management, such as IBM OpenPages, is that it allows sharing information and guarantees a central framework of risk and control. The dashboards in IBM OpenPages help with monitoring processes for different users and profiles, and we use the dashboard extensively to show the state of different processes to control them. IBM OpenPages integrates effectively with other tools and existing infrastructure for my customers as we integrate other tools, using APIs to match different information, though some other tools may better support integration. IBM offers Connect, an add-on for integration, but we do not use it, relying solely on API. The reporting tools in IBM OpenPages have very strong potential because they are linked with Cognos IBM, a business intelligence tool, allowing for very good and complex reports, though creating these reports requires skills in business intelligence to get the most out of IBM OpenPages.
Vaibhav Mahendra Kolhe - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"IBM OpenPages saves time in my work as a developer."
"The ability to keep a record of internal incidents in the company, and also the monitoring of Key Indicators."
"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 most valuable features are the workflow engine, calculations, and security rules."
"The most useful features in IBM OpenPages are the workflow features and front-end, as noted by Ian Francis, an IBM expert lab, with the workflow feature being very flexible, easy to configure, and able to help design every kind of process, while the front-end is very useful, clear, simple, and dynamic."
"Good in ORM and compliance, analytics, custom reporting, features for our board including risk management, and good support for Basel regulations."
"IBM OpenPages provides time savings in recording risk management components."
"The content, reporting, and workflow features stand out as the most valuable aspects."
"The remediation and rollback features are pretty impressive."
"The most valuable feature varies from client to client but having absolute clarity of what happened and the autonomous actions of SentinelOne are what most people find the most assuring."
"It gives you good visibility of any threats or vulnerabilities that you might have on your network."
"Sentinel One has improved our organization by protecting the environment we are working in."
"The best feature of Singularity Platform is that everything is unified in one platform, which would be a main unique selling point for them."
"SentinelOne is preferred because of its great features and nominal cost."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the user-friendly interface."
"SentinelOne is very simple to install and very simple to manage, it is very aggressive so it does protection well, and it seems to be stopping attacks that other solutions cannot."
 

Cons

"Some self-relationships are not available in OpenPages' relationship model."
"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."
"It would be useful to have more out-of-the-box functionality, especially triggers and calculations."
"IBM needs to work on pricing for organizations with around 100 users, as the licensing model is not competitive enough for SMEs."
"The reporting tools in IBM OpenPages have very strong potential because they are linked with Cognos IBM, a business intelligence tool, allowing for very good and complex reports, though creating these reports requires skills in business intelligence to get the most out of IBM OpenPages."
"IBM OpenPages could improve by adding more conditions to workflows, as some existing conditions might not work and can produce errors."
"Pricing! It's very expensive just for the licenses."
"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."
"It is complicated to do certain tasks."
"I have encountered an issue related to the alerting mechanism in SentinelOne Singularity Complete."
"The only concern we have is that there are a few features that were not readily available."
"It would be good to see some small tools to test files or hashes that are a potential threat, I know there are already products offering this."
"The solution can use up a lot of resources when scanning. It would be ideal if it was lighter."
"Writing the parsers for data ingestion can be a bit annoying in SentinelOne Singularity Complete."
"The previous vendor had a lot more features and capabilities under the license. For example, I lost DLP as Sentinel One does not have DLP."
"Maybe they can develop some firewall aspects for it to better protect us."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"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."
"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 licensing is convenient, straightforward, and very clear."
"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."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is expensive compared to Microsoft but not Sophos."
"It is very affordable and easy to license, and it allows us to onboard new analysts quickly, with a turnaround time of one day at most."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is reasonably priced."
"The price is competitive, if you compare it with other solutions on the market."
