Helps identify vulnerabilities, recover from attacks swiftly, and unify security management from a single console
Singularity Platform has an easy-to-use console. When it comes to customization, it has some options, but I wouldn't say it is very customizable. If you are asking if this is fully customizable, I would say it is partially customizable, not fully customizable. In some places, I can understand from a security background that they have kept those features considering security. However, it lacks customization and could enable much more than that. Even though Singularity Platform has multiple integrations with multiple solutions, it still needs more because competitive vendors such as CrowdStrike and Trend Micro provide more integrations than SentinelOne. The first thing I would say about the negative side of Singularity Platform is that it lacks some customization and integrations compared to competitors. We can integrate Fortinet and Palo Alto, which are big players, but there are many other small companies. Even Zoho is a significant player in our market, but there are no integrations for Zoho.

Centralized threat blocking has reduced manual monitoring but still needs better exclusions and logs
One way Sophos Central can be improved is in its exclusion capabilities. When we try to exclude legitimate files, we find that it requires a lot of effort, as we cannot simply exclude one file from every detection. Due to the layered approach, it takes time to exclude even one file, indicating that the exclusion process could definitely be enhanced. I would add that the logs in Sophos Central should be more detailed. Sometimes, when we're checking the logs, they simply state that a file is blocked, but we can't find out why that is the case. More detailed logs could significantly improve the log collecting aspect. Areas for improvement in Sophos Central are log collection, exclusion processes, and customer support. Aside from these points, I believe the overall product is great.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Singularity Platform's real-time personalization feature has helped our customer experience strategies by allowing us to have different workspaces where we have custom views, and depending on the use case because we have many products that use Singularity Platform, they interact with the UI in different ways, producing different elements and giving us tailored views for different products."
"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."
"Singularity Platform allows us to have one single view of potential threats and the health of our environment, helping us optimize operational efficiency."
"The main benefits the end-user gets from Singularity Platform are, first, the program itself being very small, and then we get better output from applications running on their systems."
"Sophos Central provides reports on downloads. It alerts the admin when users use their personal computers. The product is also flexible."
"What I find most valuable in Sophos Central is its clear and detailed threat visibility on the dashboard."
"It is easy to manage and configure."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy and user-friendly."
"The standout feature is its focus on indexing, primarily designed for managing reports and logs from 500 to 1,000 endpoints, including Windows 10 hosts within the network."
"Sophos Central is good. It's also free for all those firewalls because, from Sophos Central, we manage the firewalls and push the policies to the firewall."
"One of the most valuable features of Sophos Central for maintaining our cybersecurity posture is its ease of use."
"It helps manage all the components from one centralized portal."
 

Cons

"The dashboards can be improved, and their dashboarding functionality needs to be better. The way the dashboards look is not really impactful or meaningful."
"In my opinion, the real-time monitoring capabilities in Singularity Platform sometimes work and sometimes they don't, because there are a lot of false positives and people use unsigned applications which get deleted or quarantined by the product."
"The first thing I would say about the negative side of Singularity Platform is that it lacks some customization and integrations compared to competitors."
"Sometimes, these customized solutions our developers develop also get flagged in real time, and the processes get stopped and are blocked, and we have to whitelist the processes."
"One area I would like to see improvement in Sophos Central is the multi-factor authentication process."
"With the current hybrid work environment and travel requirements, having a mobile solution would greatly improve our ability to access and navigate Sophos Central on the go, enhancing the overall user experience and making it a more portable solution."
"The firewall capabilities of Sophos Central need improvement."
"The initial setup was moderately straightforward, around six or seven out of ten on the complexity scale. While it wasn't overly complicated, the multifactor authentication posed a challenge initially."
"On a couple of older machines, Intercept X does tend to slow a computer down significantly, but on new, modern Windows 11 machines, I have not detected this issue yet."
"The product must be made a little bit quicker."
"Having and option for endpoint security on mobile devices, it would be advantageous."
"The product's firewall servers and dashboard need improvement."
