Centralized risk libraries have streamlined audits and now highlight clunky workflows and upgrades
MetricStream can be improved in several areas. Sometimes the overall flow of the application can seem a bit clunky, based on feedback from clients. From my understanding and what I have heard from developers within MetricStream during my deeper use of the application, the application seems to have been developed within silos, and the interaction of certain applications internally could definitely be improved in terms of the overall coding that exists between applications within the solution. The only improvement I suggest for MetricStream is to gather a collaborative think tank from several of the largest clients and compile feedback to prioritize suggested enhancements from multiple organizations.

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

"Since implementing MetricStream, audit teams have shaved about two weeks off of annual planning across various teams, allowing audit departments of about 140 auditors across maybe 10 teams to squeeze in 10 extra audits, one audit per each team, if not additional testing."
"Key features are usability and ease of configuration, and it allows us to have all the information in a single place and provide real-time indicators and information for our executives."
"Key features are usability and ease of configuration. It allows us to have all the information in a single place and provide real-time indicators and information for our executives."
"The interface is mobile-friendly and it is getting a good response from our customers."
"MetricStream is something like an all-in-one solution where I do not need to write scripts or conduct audits."
"It has good features and good functionality, and our customers feel there is a lot of merit in that."
"We are able to write some custom rules on SentinelOne."
"The solution offers very rich details surrounding threats or attacks."
"The biggest benefit for my customers is that it is autonomous, where mostly everything is automated, and the threat detection, as well as auto-remediation rules, are set up."
"The most valuable feature is that it just unintrusively works in the background to carry out the protection."
"Having the capability to gain insights across our network, observe all our machines, and have a centralized view of what's protected and where things are is incredibly advantageous."
"The most valuable features of SentinelOne are the endpoint detection of threats, and it does not only rely on signatures for detection."
"SentinelOne supports both Linux and macOS."
"It is hard to put into numbers how much SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped reduce alerts; if it was just a percentage, I would have to say 90% and above."
 

Cons

"I would like to see out-of-the-box integration with more security, it would be helpful."
"We would like to have more dashboards and reports, such as geographical and trend reports in the next version."
"I would like to see out-of-the-box integration with more security, it would be helpful."
"We would like to have more dashboards and reports, such as geographical and trend reports in the next version. Also, an improvement in the mobile version would be helpful."
"The support part is terrible, rating about one out of ten."
"MetricStream's scalability is adaptable, though the biggest issue I have encountered with clients has been around upgrades that require re-implementing customizations to the out-of-box solutions after significant upgrades."
"Sometimes, these customized solutions our developers develop also get flagged in real time, and the processes get stopped and are blocked, and we have to whitelist the processes."
"Sometimes I get a response from them, but at times they may not have answers and defer to the engineering team, which can prolong the resolution time beyond expectations for customer satisfaction."
"Prior to the purchase and recent changes, experiences with SentinelOne's support and product were not positive."
"While our current remote access to SentinelOne Singularity Complete is achieved through publishing, having a direct GUI interface would be a significant advantage for our user and administrator team."
"One disadvantage of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is that the agent doesn't auto-update, and my company found it more complicated than usual to get the agent updated and keep it updated."
"The documentation provided for implementation is not adequate and has caused us challenges."
"If it had a little bit more granularity in the roles and responsibilities matrix, that would help."
"One thing I don't like is the exportable report. They're they're not as useful as I'd hoped they would be."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They are flexible in terms of customers' needs."
"My understanding is that we did a pretty good deal on SentinelOne. A part of that is because we were their customers very early on, and we also use their products a lot. We are interested in the new products that come out. We go to their demos, and we go to their events. We do save a lot of money. It is not cheap, but it is worth it. We spend a lot of money on a lot of things, and most of them do not do as much as SentinelOne."
"Overall, it was a good experience. It is pretty easy for us to increase the number."
"It's around $8 per client per month."
"The pricing model is simple."
"I believe the retail pricing, or MSRP, is a bit high."
"The pricing is very fair for the solution they provide."
"The licensing is comparable to other solutions in the market. The pricing is competitive."
"We are on a subscription model by choice. Therefore, we are paying a premium for the flexibility. We would have huge cost savings if we committed to a three-year buy-in. So, it's more expensive than the other solutions that we were looking at, but we have the flexibility of a subscription model. I think the pricing is fair. For example, if we had a three-year tie-in SentinelOne versus Cylance or one of the others, there is not that much difference in pricing. There might be a few euro or dollars here and there, but it's negligible."
