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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"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."
"OTX is a great module that lets staff maintain and monitor updates regarding events in the infrastructure and takes decision to improve the security perimeter."
"It has streamlined log aggregation and analysis to meet organizational and regulatory needs."
"We're using it more for reporting, that's all. We're using it to help our customers to pass any kind of audits that they receive."
"Having everything in a central place has been helpful."
"The feature that I liked the most is that they have a vulnerability assessment package that comes along with the SIEM solution. So, whenever I find any threat or alert for any of the devices or servers, I could immediately initiate a vulnerability assessment scan on that machine. That is one of a kind. The price at which AlienVault operates is also valuable."
"The new cloud-based panel is excellent both for client review as well as for our SOC to review and respond to threats. It is much easier to configure and use than the previous solution from AlienVault.​"
"It is my "security person" looking at irregularities and letting me know when something has occurred."
"The other big selling feature for us was its integration capabilities with all the other security-based products."
 

Cons

"The first thing I would say about the negative side of Singularity Platform is that it lacks some customization and integrations compared to competitors."
"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."
"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."
"For creating new rules, you have to be familiar with regular expressions. I feel there could be something built-in to make sure that process is easier."
"The price of AT&T AlienVault USM could be reduced."
"Reporting is convoluted and difficult at times, although they claim to have hundreds of pre-built reports, very few of them are actually useful for anything but what the USM is doing."
"I've been using it just for my own personal upskilling in terms of how the product works. At the moment, it is pretty straightforward and simple, and it is working how it is supposed to. The feedback would come once it is deployed to customer sites. They'll be using it on a more frequent basis, and that's when the feedback would come in terms of the areas in which they're facing issues or are looking for simplicity."
"More complimentary training needs to be done for use with this tool. If you get into a bind, then it will cost you."
"Their threat intelligence platform needs to be broadened. They should integrate it with more threat intelligence platforms. For the threat feed that they get from open intelligence, I would like them to add a few premium threat intelligence platforms. They can provide a bundle in which AlienVault has the threat intelligence background of other premium products."
"There are scalability issues due to a 60 TB limit, which restricts its use for large customers like banks."
"The reporting and dashboards have room for improvement."

"We pay around $12,000 a year including storage."
"It allows you to do a lot with a small price tag... The pricing is the best on the market."
"The licensing fees are dependent on usage."
"It has good pricing."
"It is a product that is priced in a medium range, making it neither a cheap nor a costly product."
"So far, I feel the product's pricing is a good value. The technology is decent. You get what you pay for. I think it's fair."
"They charge a license based on the storage. ATT AlienVault USM is a less expensive solution than IBM QRadar."
