We performed a comparison between Rapid7 Metasploit and SentinelOne Singularity Identity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Vulnerability Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of the solution are the scripts, the modules, and the tools that the Rapid7 Metasploit framework has."
"The Search Engineering feature is good."
"I don't have any other tools like it, and I always use it when I'm doing a pen test. Metasploit is a great solution for penetration testing,"
"All of the features are great."
"It allows us to concentrate solely on identified vulnerabilities without the hassle of additional setup."
"The most valuable feature for us is the support for testing Linux-based web server components."
"The solution is open source and has many small targetted penetration tests that have been written by many people that are useful. You can choose different subjects for the test, such as Oracle databases or Apache servers."
"It contains almost all the available exploits and payloads."
"The threat detection capability is the most valuable feature."
"The AI-based detection, scanning, prevention and mitigation features are the most valuable features."
"One of the top things we're interested in is cloud protection."
"I like the detection and protection features. We don't need to do anything, and it will alert us when the mitigation is not successful. We only need to target those endpoints. Otherwise, we don't have to do anything about that."
"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne Singularity Identity is its ability to detect based on behavior rather than just static signatures."
"SentinelOne Singularity Identity is very lightweight as an agent or software."
"The biggest value for us is getting a much better picture of what our risks are."
"Behind the scenes, SentinelOne has real people who evaluate problems and mark them as false positives. That's what I find most helpful."
"I would like to see more capabilities, more functions, and more features. More types of attack vectors."
"It is necessary to add some training materials and a tutorial for beginners."
"Advanced Infrastructure should be implemented in the next release for better orchestration."
"At the time I was using it, the graphical user interface needed some improvements."
"If your company's patch is not up to date, but you have other detection or defense solutions such as endpoint detection and response and antivirus software, the product exploit may not work effectively. This is because its exploit database update process is slow and not real-time. For zero-day vulnerabilities or new security threats, relying on Rapid7 Metasploit alone may not be effective."
"The solution is not very scalable, it does not provide any automation to be able to scale it."
"The solution should improve the responsiveness of its live technical support."
"Metasploit cannot be installed on a machine with an antivirus."
"Our company has different locations, such as Sunbury, Oklahoma, and Alabama. I have my devices by location, and I have not found a way to choose all the endpoints and then push the update automatically. I have been doing it one by one."
"The first-level support has room for improvement."
"The policies could be more precise, and Singularity should use more templates like alternative solutions have. Endpoint management is poor. We cannot manage individual endpoints and must rely on policies, exclusions, or block lists to apply settings to a group instead of the individual agent. If I have to make settings for one computer, I need to create a group, apply the configuration, and move the agent there. It's challenging to manage endpoints that way."
"The primary reason for this discontent is that we frequently encounter performance issues with our servers."
"The solution's query resolution time could be reduced further, and a faster resolution could be provided."
"The UI can be more user-friendly."
"The root cause of automation could be better."
"A lot of those features came from an acquisition of a different company."
