Alejandro Stromer - PeerSpot reviewer
Director Consulting SAP OpenText en Entelgy at DCL Consultores EIM SL
A stable and scalable hybrid solution with easy setup
The solution is scalable. It has three levels. You have the presentation area that can be escalated to the balance sheet. You have the back-end area that can be escalated using higher viability to configure more application servers. Also, the area of storage can be increased. We usually cater to enterprise solutions but have small- and medium-sized customers. It starts with 25 users and goes up to 100s and 1000s.
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

"Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis."
"The technical support is excellent."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"The solution is very stable."
"The solution has been quite good, and, overall, the features we need are available to us."
"Using Encase we are able to implement security and also Forensics."
"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts, as it allows me to customize the scripts and deploy them as and how I need them, for example to segregate and index files efficiently."
"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts. That is one powerful feature that I, personally, love to use."
"It has the best ROI that I've seen."
"SentinelOne gives us visibility into various high-level vulnerabilities on every gateway on the network. It helps us prevent vulnerable devices from being compromised. We primarily use Singularity for its EDR functions. We're happy with that."
"This is a very good solution because we can easily correlate the logs from the gateway and SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, easily find out and get visibility on where the attack happened, how the virus came in, whether it is from mail or firewall or anything else, and easily monitor everything in SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint."
"It gives you good visibility of any threats or vulnerabilities that you might have on your network."
"Overall, SentinelOne Singularity Complete helps me consolidate my security solutions, as it provides strong automation, reliable support, and valuable rollback capabilities."
"The product can scale as needed."
"It is easy to collect and retain logs with SentinelOne."
"The overview is valuable. There are a lot of instances out there, but Singularity Complete cuts the noise down by giving us graphics and color-coding information instead of massive tech dumps. It helps us concentrate on what is actually needed versus just the noise."
 

Cons

"From a customer service standpoint, this is unacceptable."
"​Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process.​"
"We have come across problems with the end-case. We could not find an email discovery type of module and there was not flexibility with the email."
"The reporting is a bit unreliable. It needs to be better."
"I suggest that if the mobile phone acquisition is embedded in the Encase law enforcement version, it would be very useful."
"I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function."
"Ease of use and learning curve need improvement."
"In the past, incident response time for tech support was slow."
"The MDM functionality and maturity still need improvement."
"It is not so much on the Singularity platform itself, but they have their own built-in SIEM that is included with it. That needs to evolve a little bit. It is relatively basic in its capabilities. They have potential there for a great product and a needed product too. Having some kind of SIEM capability with the endpoint solution will save me from buying a bigger SIEM or buying another one. I could just use the one that comes with my endpoint solution."
"Writing the parsers for data ingestion can be a bit annoying in SentinelOne Singularity Complete."
"I would appreciate seeing the browser extension react more effectively to events, going beyond mere detection."
"One area of SentinelOne that definitely has room for improvement is the reporting. The canned reports are clunky and we haven't been able to pull a lot of good information directly from them."
"One of the negatives we have found is that we receive quite a lot of false positives."
"The endpoint firewall capability is fairly primitive and basic."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"EnCase is an affordable solution."
"​The product is affordable and user-friendly.​"
"We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."
"We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."
"The pricing is comparable with other vendors but some customers find it a bit costly."
"The cost of Singularity Complete is similar to our previous solution but it comes with additional options such as Kubernetes integration."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete meets all enterprise requirements and is priced accordingly."
"SentinelOne was half the price of CrowdStrike."
"It is comparatively cheap in the market and provides a good price point."
"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."
"SentinelOne makes licensing easy by reducing the number of modules or packages that they have to offer. A lot of other vendors make licensing very complicated with separate modules or separate costs. By bundling necessary features, SentinelOne ensures that security leaders are not left confused by options. This bundling of necessities has served our needs well."
"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."
