User-friendly solution with good blocking
I mainly use Security Premium as an antivirus.  Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface. Security Premium's cost could be lower. I've been using Security Premium for a year. Security Premium is stable - I haven't faced any issues or bugs while using…

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

"We like how it can check for issues, including files and web browsers, as it is a full-stack solution for antivirus for personal use and it is pretty effective."
"The most valuable feature is the multifunctional protection."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"We tried a few: Kaspersky, Trend Micro, we used McAfee, we used Norton; we tried them all on our entire fleet of computers, and we realized that in terms of ease of use and resource consumption, Norton is something that is acceptable to us."
"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete has positively impacted my organization by helping with trust amongst the organization, and with USB exclusions and other features, it has helped with data loss prevention and allowed me to measure DLP attacks."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete, together with SentinelOne Vigilance, is an EDR tool with capabilities such as these, which I found valuable: the dashboard that shows you all the information and the power to either manually or automatically quarantine issues or threats in the environment."
"We love the API. We use it to generate robust reporting, and we also developed tools to perform agent actions remotely without needing to provide all IT staff with console access."
"We have absolutely seen a return on our investment because it has created that first-level SOC, replaced McAfee and other tools, and they keep adding features that further increase the value we get."
"The most valuable features of SentinelOne are the lateral movement and the use of the Active Directory."
"Once it fully adapts to the environment, customers don't even need to monitor their endpoint protection landscape, as it can automatically learn and mitigate any threats or problems with minimal human interaction."
"Singularity's rollback feature is one of the primary reasons we bought the product. If there's an attack on the machine, the system can automatically roll back the data and the hard drive of the machine that was attacked."
"During the time of attacks, if there is any data loss, we were able to easily roll back those attacks and retrieve that data for the client with a single click."
 

Cons

"They say Norton Security Premium is an all-in-one solution, but we don't know exactly what's in it, e.g. they didn't make an effort to explain the difference between a virus scan and a ransomware scan."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"The product could always be more secure."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"SentinelOne is making a lot of moves to acquire various companies, but the roadmap isn't clear, and it is still uncertain how the new acquisitions will integrate. For example, SentinelOne recently acquired a mobile security solution, but there is no real integration between the platforms."
"Although the SentinelOne firewall seems to offer potential benefits, in reality, it hasn't proven to be very helpful."
"I would appreciate seeing the browser extension react more effectively to events, going beyond mere detection."
"The solution needs better reporting on new threats and malware. The reporting is present, but I can't find the information easily."
"The overall integration functionality for this solution could be improved."
"However, for complex cases—especially agent-related problems—we sometimes need remote assistance, and that level of support is not included in the basic subscription."
"It has all the features that other leading products in the market provide. They should keep enhancing it based on the challenges in the market. I am fine with its detection capability, but they can work more on deep inspection."
"There is room for improvement with the management interface. It could be more user friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"As I have been a long-time customer, I was given a fair price of $49.95 per month for the first four to six months."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"I don't pay for a license."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"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."
"Its cost is similar to Trend Micro, but the protection is much better."
"The pricing model is simple."
"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."
"Nothing good is cheap, and SentinelOne is no exception."
"The product's pricing is at par with what you see among major competitors. It's higher than McAfee, yet cheaper than CrowdStrike."
"It was cheaper than McAfee, which was a way to convince management to go with the solution."
"You have to look at the kinds of problems you can end up with and the fact that you want security against them, and then SentinelOne is not expensive."
