Centralized threat insights have transformed how my team prioritizes and investigates incidents
SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response is a strong platform overall, but there are areas for improvement. The reporting and dashboard customization could be more flexible to better suit different teams' needs. In some cases, having more detailed investigation guidance and clearer explanations for complex detections would help analysts, especially those who are new to the platform. I would also like to see broader integration with third-party security tools and additional customization options for alerts and workflows. These improvements would make it even easier to fit the platform into different security environments and operational processes. One area that could be improved is the availability of more advanced training resources and practical documentation. While the platform is user-friendly, having more detailed use case-based guides, troubleshooting examples, and hands-on learning materials would help teams get more value from the solution. Additional best practice documentation around threat investigation, workflow integration, and advanced features would also be helpful. Regular training sessions or updates with learning context would make it easier for administrators and analysts to stay current with new capabilities and improve their overall usage of the platform. One additional area for improvement would be providing more customization options for dashboard, reports, and workflow to better match different organizations and requirements. Enhanced automation options and more detailed guidance for complex threat investigation would also help teams get even more value from the platform. More frequent advanced training materials, real-world use cases, and updated documentation would be beneficial as new features are introduced. Overall, the platform is effective, but continued improvements in customization, learning resources, and investigation capabilities would make it even stronger.

We now benefit from regular account reviews and proactive event monitoring
It could improve the customer portal and possibly reduce prices slightly. It's very good because it includes user behavior analytics, detection rules, and thorough log investigation. They also have robust threat-hunting capabilities in the backend, which is crucial for me as a one-man band in the IT department. The managed service wraparound is essential, especially with pre-authorization for incident response

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The best feature of this solution is the third-party management aspect. An external company oversees the tool's management and monitors the data it generates. If the EDR detects suspicious activity, it will react accordingly and take necessary actions, such as blocking a device."
"The initial setup process was straightforward, and deployment can take approximately half a day, depending on the company's size."
"We are still working on it, and you can't find a silver bullet solution, however, building your total security with SentinelOne included in your portfolio is a great thing."
"SentinelOne Vigilance is an endpoint security tool with quarantining, dashboards showing us information, and many capabilities like manual and automatic quarantine of environmental issues."
"SentinelOne Vigilance has very good detection."
"I have seen benefits from using it, and I can assure that it is 100% protected against many threats, and it is always in the actual state."
"I would rate SentinelOne's customer service and support a five out of five."
"SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response has had a significant positive impact on my organization by enhancing our overall security posture and incident response capabilities."
"Our security posture has improved. We previously lacked intrusion detection and response capabilities, but now we benefit from regular account reviews and proactive event monitoring. Their portal provides a straightforward way to report suspicious activity, keeping us well-informed about potential threats."
 

Cons

"SentinelOne Vigilance's integration capabilities with other products can be considered as an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The support response time is not the issue, however, sometimes, the answers provided are not fully satisfactory due to the nature of the technology and issue complexity."
"Occasionally during an update, customers may temporarily be without protection until the upgrade is complete."
"The tool needs improvement in clear communication and detection."
"When upgrades are required on the server, you need to almost remove SentinelOne Vigilance completely off the system. We put SentinelOne Vigilance on silence for the monitor mode, but we were having trouble upgrading the server. I had to remove SentinelOne Vigilance completely from the server, but that meant that all the previous logs of attacks I wanted to look at on the server were gone. This is one thing they need to improve, they need better compatibility with the Microsoft Windows service. I should not have to remove the agent completely to upgrade the service."
"There is always room for continuous improvement for SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response."
"I suspect that the areas for improvement may not necessarily lie within the tool itself but rather in our organization's lack of knowledge and understanding of cybersecurity. Cybersecurity is a complex area, and our organization has a skill set deficit. Therefore, we rely on our cybersecurity support company to help us manage the tool and handle incidents. Our limited expertise sometimes prevents us from fully utilizing them or identifying potential gaps."
"My only complaint is that the knowledge base is not accessible to the customer."
"It could improve the customer portal and possibly reduce prices slightly. It's very good because it includes user behavior analytics, detection rules, and thorough log investigation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SentinelOne Vigilance is priced in a normal range."
"I give the cost a three out of ten."
"The solution’s pricing is very reasonable."
"The tool's pricing is slightly cheaper than other alternatives. It's not just about licensing costs; because we already have it implemented, we can save money on deployment and initial setup. Additionally, SentinelOne Vigilance is slightly cheaper in licensing, maybe around 10-15 percent cheaper."
"I rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten since it is really expensive, but it is well worth what my company gets."
"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten since it is a very highly-priced solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"The licensing cost depends on the number of connected devices and whether you purchase additional services."
