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

"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."
"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."
"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. 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."
"We collect a lot of telemetry from Singularity Complete."
"One of the nicest things about SentinelOne is their support; I never met a company which gives such fast, great support."
"The solution's in-place upgrades have been very helpful."
"The initial setup is very straightforward and easy."
"If you want to protect your environment and sleep soundly at night, and if you're in the security industry, I highly encourage you to deploy SentinelOne and just watch what it's capable of."
"The most valuable features of SentinelOne are the endpoint detection of threats, and it does not only rely on signatures for detection."
"The best thing is it has a secure shell command that you can use to get into any endpoint and do some jobs."
"The ability to get queries by pressing the "tab" button is a plus for SentinelOne."
 

Cons

"The support part is terrible, rating about one out of ten."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"If they can extend their product further on the DLP side of it so that I don't have to have another agent run exclusively for DLP production, that would be ideal."
"I would like SentinelOne to add a threat-hunting report and more UEBA features. They could add more SIEM functionality. It would be nice to have the ability to easily drag all the logs from the agents, so there's no need for multiple agents installed on the endpoint."
"As a user, I personally feel that in SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, the customized dashboard could be improved. We were not able to create a customized dashboard in it."
"There is an area of improvement is agent health monitoring, which would give us the ability to cap and manage resources used by the SentinelOne agent. We had issues with this in our environment. We reached out to SentinelOne about it, and they were very prompt in adding it into their roadmap."
"Since SentinelOne Hologram was an Attivo Networks product acquired by Microsoft, I have to install a different agent on endpoints for that product. It would be better if the same SentinelOne agent could be used for both the EDR and deception technology."
"I would like to have the same features such as ransomware that are available on the cloud version of SentinelOne also made available for the on-prem version because a lot of people in our region are not ready for cloud solutions."
"The grouping feature needs improvement."
"The solution does not have an application security and control module."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They are flexible in terms of customers' needs."
"Pricing is a bit of a pain point. That's where we have not been able to convince all of our customers to use SentinelOne. The pricing is still on the higher side. It's almost double the price, if not more, of a normal antivirus, such as NOD32, Kaspersky, or Symantec."
"It was cheaper than McAfee, which was a way to convince management to go with the solution."
"The pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete is competitive."
"The pricing of the solution seems reasonable, we got a discount but it still seems reasonable. The licensing cost is $3 to $4 per endpoint and can be paid monthly or yearly, with the price changing according to commitment."
"The pricing appears to be pretty affordable."
"The licensing is comparable to other solutions in the market. The pricing is competitive."
"SentinelOne is more affordable than some competing products, and it's not overly expensive for what you're getting."
"It is not sold as a consumer product. It is only sold based on the number of licenses. So, as an MSP, you're probably going to pay about three and a half dollars per license, per month to have SentinelOne."
