We performed a comparison between Mandiant Advantage and SentinelOne Singularity Complete based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Extended Detection and Response (XDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We are able to consolidate licences and make use of many Microsoft products using this solution. If we have any Microsoft customers, we encourage them to use this solution for enterprise defence."
"The common and advanced security policies for threat hunting and blocking attacks are valuable."
"The product integrates security into one tool instead of having third-party security tools."
"I like that it's stable. It's been stable for a long time, and Microsoft Defender has done a good job there."
"All of the security components are valuable including, antiphishing, antispam, and stage three antivirus."
"The integration with other Microsoft solutions is the most valuable feature."
"The summarization of emails is a valuable feature."
"Email protection is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Defender XDR."
"It is so valuable to have someone performing these functions outside of our business hours when we don't have staff in the building. We've seen a lot of solid metrics on the amount of malware that it's detecting and resolving. We're pleased with it so far."
"The advantage of the solution is being able to go look up threat actors and get a lot of detailed information about different attacks and different tactics and general information about threats."
"The feature I have found most valuable is directory monitoring. We experienced an instance of threat actors trying to ensure a complex and massive attack against our customer's infrastructure on the forum. That is, they were animating people on a formum. The solution alerted us to this two days ahead of the attack, which gave us plenty of time to prepare for it."
"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."
"The customer support for this solution is good."
"The management dashboard is the most valuable feature."
"It has saved us from a couple of ransomware attacks already."
"It delivers the type of security which we were hoping for, since we have a lot of different endpoint users utilizing different types of software. We have people who only use Office software, like email, Word, and PDFs. Then, we have people who use some applications that other people wrote. We also write applications in-house using people who develop software. Therefore, we have some machines using very high-end developer software for mechanical development, electronic development, and software development. Those users are used to managing their PC on their own. The centralize platform allows us to differentiate between those three groups of people. We have overall control and can oversee the security levels at all the endpoints. They have not yet been blocked in any way when performing the functions"
"The solution is both stable and scalable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the user-friendly interface."
"The solution is extremely stable."
"There could be a way to proactively monitor unusual activity ."
"Customers say they want absolutely seamless integration between other Microsoft solutions and Defender XDR, including the ability to change device settings within the Defender portal. They need to contact the IT team responsible for the device management tools to change some settings. They would prefer that those changes be initiated directly from the Defender portal or applied from Intune without involving the IT operations team."
"The price should be adjustable by region."
"The documentation on their website is somewhat outdated and doesn't show properly. I wanted to try a query in Microsoft Defender 365. When I opened the related documentation from the security blog on the Microsoft website, the figures were not showing. It was difficult to understand the article without having the figures. The figures were there in the article, but they were not getting loaded, which made the article obsolete."
"One of the biggest downsides of Microsoft products, in general, is that the menus are often difficult to find, as they tend to move from place to place between versions."
"At times, there may be delays in the execution of certain actions and their effects."
"Generally, antivirus products provide a central control to manage every device in terms of who is installing it or who is trying to disable it, but Microsoft doesn't have such a control center for the antivirus product it provides."
"In the beginning, it's difficult to navigate the system because it is quite large. Just trying to find your way and understand how the system works can be hard. After spending quite a lot of time searching it's a lot easier, but I wish it were a bit more user-friendly when you're trying to find things."
"They could have better support. Now that they've merged, they are moving towards a portal system, which isn't very helpful."
"I think that the data query that is used for data cloud language should be improved. It's really hard to query actual data from the platform."
"Mandiant's on-prem client is too processor-intensive, so it's putting a strain on the local device's CPU. When a scan is running on the device, the other processing tasks slow to a crawl. We're still trying to figure out the correct settings for the client."
"The ability to have more direct purchasing for smaller groups and smaller businesses would be great."
"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."
"The agent update is not the most intuitive process, but I understand why they do it. We have a pretty vertical 64-bit environment for Windows. That is pretty much all we have, but we get alerts for things like the new Linux endpoint or things that do not apply to us. That is probably the only thing that I do not like. There may be some way to turn that off so that I do not get endpoint update alerts from platforms that are not applicable to our system, enterprise, or network."
"The training for SentinelOne Singularity should be free. The solution has a lot of features but we do not know how to use them all. The moment someone purchases the solution they should contact them and provide them with a feature session on how to use the features."
"One of the areas which would benefit from being improved is the policies. There are still software programs where we need to manually program in the policies to tell the system, "This program is legitimate." Some level of AI-based automation in creating those policies would go a long way in improving the amount of time it takes to deploy the system."
"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."
"The process of uninstalling and reinstalling older agent updates needs improvement."
"There should be Terraform support for console administration. Dynamic tagging would be also useful."
