Alerts us instantaneously, provides granular information, and has competitive pricing
Pros and Cons
  • "Being able to keep track of the endpoints and the data that is available from the endpoints is valuable. We can see the patch levels, whether Windows endpoints are active or inactive, and who is the last user that was logged on. We get a lot of granular information that is valuable even what we are not talking from a security standpoint."
  • "The agent update is not the most intuitive process, but I understand why they do it. We have a pretty vertical 64-bit environment for Windows. That is pretty much all we have, but we get alerts for things like the new Linux endpoint or things that do not apply to us. That is probably the only thing that I do not like. There may be some way to turn that off so that I do not get endpoint update alerts from platforms that are not applicable to our system, enterprise, or network."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Complete as an endpoint protection solution. It is our primary endpoint protection solution for our workstations and servers for protection from any kind of threats that may appear on those systems.

We have some localized virtual machines that it is running on. We do not have any cloud workloads.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is pretty good in terms of being able to fine-tune the alerting that you get. It is better than other solutions that are super noisy to the point that it is difficult to drill down. If you get an alert of something that is actionable, it is better than getting one alert and then getting five others right behind it. This solution is pretty good at not being noisy.

Luckily, I do not spend a ton of time with SentinelOne Singularity Complete unless there is an alert or a potential breach, but that just does not happen very often. Email security is the front door of protection, and that takes the brunt of any kind of security concerns. Luckily, most things are not hitting our network right now.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is pretty good at picking up things that are not necessarily malicious and alerting me that somebody or something is using something that needs attention. That happens instantaneously. It is pretty quick.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is as fast as we can ask. I can see the alert and get on it. It does not take very long, so I am not sure how we can improve more when it comes to our time to respond. We are a small enterprise. It does not take us too long to respond to things.

What is most valuable?

Being able to keep track of the endpoints and the data that is available from the endpoints is valuable. We can see the patch levels, whether Windows endpoints are active or inactive, and who is the last user that was logged on. We get a lot of granular information that is valuable even when we are not talking from a security standpoint.

What needs improvement?

The agent update is not the most intuitive process, but I understand why they do it. We have a pretty vertical 64-bit environment for Windows. That is pretty much all we have, but we get alerts for things like the new Linux endpoint or things that do not apply to us. That is probably the only thing that I do not like. There may be some way to turn that off so that I do not get endpoint update alerts from platforms that are not applicable to our system, enterprise, or network.

865,295 professionals have used our research since 2012.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have had it for a couple of years now.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I have not had any issues related to downtime, uptime, or responsiveness of their infrastructure. I have not seen any reports where something was not working the way it was supposed to.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

They would far outpace the scale of what we would be looking at.

How are customer service and support?

I contacted their technical support at the very beginning when I was rolling things out, but it was not a major issue. It was just about me getting up to speed with how they do things. I do not have a negative impression of how that interaction went.

SentinelOne is a good partner. I had a few other technical support questions, and they answered them pretty quickly. They were pretty minor things, and they were always pretty quick to respond. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We were using another solution previously. It was long ago. We were using Berkeley, which was bought by Alert Logic. The Berkeley product was pretty good, but when they were bought by Alert Logic, I did not like the way they did things. It was complicated. It was not intuitive. Their sales program was a little shady. We got locked into a contract that was not intentional. It was not a great experience. They have a product that is not a direct competitor to SentinelOne. We tried it, and it was super noisy for alerts. If I tried to clear all the alerts in the system, I would not have time for anything else. We were not necessarily looking for it, but because of the platform that we were on, we tried the other offerings that were included in the platform, and it just was not a good fit.

SentinelOne is a much more robust platform than Berkeley or Alert Logic in terms of endpoint protection. In terms of the ability to be innovative, SentinelOne provides tools. If we had stronger security requirements, they have other tools that we could utilize, such as Ranger. 

How was the initial setup?

The portal is cloud-based, but the agents are on-prem.

I was involved in its deployment. I am a one-man IT shop. It was pretty straightforward. You get the agent that you want to install, and there is a code that you put in that locks it to your portal. It installs pretty easily.

It requires very little maintenance. Occasionally, I check to make sure that the agent version is pushed out because that is not automatic. I get to choose when the agent gets pushed out. If there is an update, I update them when I want to.

What about the implementation team?

We did not need any help at all. It was just me. 

What was our ROI?

We do not put a price on security, but we have to choose between different products that are on the market. We are constantly evaluating other products every year. Endpoint protection is not something with which there is a huge opportunity cost by moving from one vendor to the next. Our security stack is not so integrated with SentinelOne. If, for some reason, they were not the best option, we could move to another option fairly easily. The fact that we are sticking with SentinelOne is a testament that it is not broken. It is still working for us. It gives us good peace of mind about the product line, where it is going, and the protection that it provides.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

It is very competitive with other solutions that are on the market. At least the last time we renewed, it was very competitive.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I try to stay abreast of different platforms. I reached out to SentinelOne, and they put me in touch with a reseller, so I went out and found it. 

The biggest thing was how well SentinelOne ranked versus the other platforms. There was also a cost-benefit of a solution like SentinelOne. We thought it would be effective for endpoint protection.

It certainly was a cost-effective solution as compared to some of the other endpoint protection solutions that were available at the time. I would not have gone with SentinelOne if it was not a good value.

What other advice do I have?

It is a very robust platform. It is a great candidate to serve small business environments. They do not target small businesses. They do not market it to small business environments with 50 users or less, but being a little more technically-minded, I wanted something that was enterprise-ready. Even though our environment is small, it was a good fit for us.

It did not require a lot of in-place support from the integrator or the reseller, but they did provide a large amount of presale decision-making help in terms of what I was getting into and what they could provide. That was very helpful. Talking to an integrator or a reseller so that you can put a person to the discussion is helpful.

In terms of integrations, we have looked into some of the integrations, such as with Mimecast. We have had some interest in that, but we have not utilized any of those third-party integrations. We also looked at the possibility of using some things with log management and being able to have a single source of how protected we are across the enterprise, but we have not yet pulled the trigger on anything like that.

Overall, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete a nine out of ten.

Has a nice UI, a great hunting feature, and saves us time
Pros and Cons
  • "The hunting feature is most valuable for detecting malicious or suspicious activity."
  • "The way Singularity Complete handles blocking external mass storage is annoying because it is so difficult to unblock single endpoints."

What is our primary use case?

I use SentinelOne Singularity Complete as our next-generation antivirus on our endpoint. I review detected malware and verify whether it is legitimate or a false positive. Additionally, we can control endpoints, such as correlating them or blocking specific activities on any endpoint. We also have visibility into what is happening, including what is installed, being installed, or uninstalled on endpoints.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete can help reduce alerts, but we must first add exclusions based on our existing features to keep the false positive rate low.

SentinelOne has helped our staff save time investigating and handling incidents.

It has helped reduce our MTTD and our MTTR.

What is most valuable?

The hunting feature is most valuable for detecting malicious or suspicious activity.

What needs improvement?

The way Singularity Complete handles blocking external mass storage is annoying because it is so difficult to unblock single endpoints. We can only add a general rule to block everything, and we cannot add any exceptions. Additionally, Singularity Complete uses different names for endpoints other than the actual actions that will happen or be taken, such as quarantining a device. This is also confusing, as the wording used by Singularity Complete is slightly different from other endpoint security solutions and can be difficult at the start.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for almost three months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Singularity Complete is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Singularity Complete is extremely scalable.

How are customer service and support?

Technical support is super helpful. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The price of Singularity Complete compared to some of its competitors is competitive.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete eight out of ten.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has room to grow, but it is overall very good. It is a mature software product with an awesome UI. There are many options and actions available. 

No maintenance is required from our end.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is a straightforward, stable solution that is easy to learn.

Is a lightweight solution, has a valuable dashboard, and saves us time
Pros and Cons
  • "The management dashboard is the most valuable feature."
  • "The most difficult part of using Singularity Complete is logging in, as they often update the management console."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Complete as the antivirus for our computers.

We wanted a solution that could maintain the protection of our computers so we implemented SentinelOne Singularity Complete.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is a lightweight application with a quick threat response.

Singularity Complete has helped reduce our alerts with prompt responses.

Singularity Complete has freed up several hours of our staff's time each week, allowing them to focus on other projects. They no longer need to manually monitor hundreds of computers, as they now have a single dashboard to manage them.

It has reduced our MTTD through prompt action taken against the vulnerability or threat.

It has also reduced our MTTR through quick notifications that allow us to respond within minutes.

Singularity Complete has helped us reduce our organizational risk.

What is most valuable?

The management dashboard is the most valuable feature.

What needs improvement?

The most difficult part of using Singularity Complete is logging in, as they often update the management console. I don't know if our accounts become disassociated or what the deal is, but if we don't log in within a certain amount of time, we have to go through a password reset or account reset process.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for around five years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is stable with no downtime.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is scalable.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support team is prompt.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The price is fair for what we are getting.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete nine out of ten.

SentinelOne is very mature. It's a lightweight application that does not waste a lot of resources, and the quality is definitely good.

Singularity Complete is a self-sustained standalone application that updates to the cloud. Every computer checks in and updates as needed.

I manage our future application deployments and ensure that Singularity Complete is automatically pushed out and kept up to date.

SentinelOne is a good overall security partner.

It's always worth testing out different solutions and finding the one that works for each organization. But as far as SentinelOne Singularity Complete goes, it's been an easy process for our organization and I recommend it to others.

Simplicity is key, with one portal to look at, and it blocks anything bad from happening
Pros and Cons
  • "The alerting features are the most valuable. We know that when something goes wrong, we get alerted instantly. That gives us a leg up. Even before the user knows what's happening, we're being alerted to step in and stop anything catastrophic from happening."
  • "I would like to see a better mobile app so that I could look through my phone at the alerts and not have to go to the website. They should make it a little more mobile-accessible."

What is our primary use case?

We mostly use SentinelOne to protect our computers and know which users are logging in.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne gives the end-user and our IT staff a level of security, knowing that when they're downloading something, talking to a client, or looking at email, their computer is secure. And if, God forbid, they click on the wrong link or download the wrong item, SentinelOne will step in and block anything from happening.

The simplicity of the solution is key. There's only one portal to look at. I don't have to jump around to a couple of programs or combine multiple programs into one. It provides ease of management for me and my team.

And with Singularity, I don't have to worry as much about scanning. It has taken some of my daily activities away, such as system scans, identity scans, and making sure that everything is updated. Also, I now don't have to manually update anything on the laptops for security. The fact that SentinelOne can do that automatically has given me time back in my day.

It saves us at least a couple hours a week, and more if we need to do a full upgrade. If we're doing a full upgrade and have to update every SentinelOne client or any endpoint protection, it could take a day to touch every computer. Now, it takes five minutes to make a policy and push it. It all depends on what the day's workload is, but it definitely saves us time.

In terms of reducing alerts, that did not happen at the beginning, but now that we have it fine-tuned, I don't get as many false alerts. It has really dialed itself in to know what issues to look for. We're not getting spammed with insignificant stuff anymore. It definitely took some time to figure out the alert system and how to make the emails work for us. But now that we have it running, I know that when I get a notification that it's a real one.

And it has reduced our mean time to detect because I don't have to detect. It does it for me. And similarly, for our mean time to respond, it's definitely quicker because I get the email notification right away, and it becomes a priority in our ticketing queue from the notification. Once that comes in, someone on my team stops what they're doing and looks at the alert set. Nothing will sit on the network for long now with it scanning all the time.

It has reduced our organizational risk.

What is most valuable?

The alerting features are the most valuable. We know that when something goes wrong, we get alerted instantly. That gives us a leg up. Even before the user knows what's happening, we're being alerted to step in and stop anything catastrophic from happening.

What needs improvement?

I would like to see a better mobile app so that I could look through my phone at the alerts and not have to go to the website. They should make it a little more mobile-accessible.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using SentinelOne Singularity for about a year and a half.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

There have been no issues at all.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Scaling is easy. It's not hard to expand it at this point.

How are customer service and support?

When I contacted their technical support, the experience was okay. They fixed the issue. It was just a matter of getting to the right person.

I would rate SentinelOne highly as a strategic security partner. For any issues we had, they have been responsive, talking to the vigilance team and high-level teams. Again, it always comes down to finding the right person. It takes time to get to the right person, but once we get there, it's fine. They are able to help with our needs.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used Sophos. We switched to Singularity because it's simpler, easier to use, and rated higher.

When looking at the quality and maturity of Singularity, it's a great program. Depending on what program you are coming from, there might be a little learning curve, but once you get past that, it's easy to use, and it becomes very intuitive after some time.

How was the initial setup?

It took some time to figure out how to make the deployment work, to get it on everyone's computers, and to get the organization to fully adopt it, but it really wasn't hard in the long run now that we have it deployed.

There is no maintenance involved on our end. I can push policies during the day to upgrade the clients.

What about the implementation team?

We did it in-house. The implementation was done by me and four other guys.

We did have training, but they didn't help with the deployment. They just showed us how to use the program itself.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing is reasonable. It may be a little high, but it's on par with everything out there.

I wish the more users you have, the better the price would be.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We looked at CrowdStrike.

What other advice do I have?

We have SentinelOne deployed through Intune, but we use the cloud login to work on any alerts or events that pop up. When new SentinelOne updates are available, we log into the cloud portal, make a new batch, and just send out the update automatically to all 400 clients that we have. If any events or errors show up, we go through the normal process. We let the vigilance team look at them, remove the computer from the network if need be, isolate it, and do our normal due diligence on what the error or the event is telling us.

We're very happy with the SentinelOne platform, so we haven't looked at anything else recently.

Reduces alerts, offers deep visibility, and saves time
Pros and Cons
  • "The deep visibility is really important for us. With it, we can really look deep into some of the incidents."
  • "We did use the Ranger functionality. However, there was some scanning going on and it caused a lot of noise, so we had to disable it."

What is our primary use case?

We use it at our enterprise to protect all of our endpoints. We needed an EDR tool, and this product was one of the top options that we looked at at the time.

How has it helped my organization?

We definitely get a lot more insights into incidents. When we get an alert, we can go a lot deeper into the information and investigate.

What is most valuable?

The deep visibility is really important for us. With it, we can really look deep into some of the incidents.

Singularity's interoperability with other SentinelOne is okay. It does an okay job. We can tie it into some of our other tools. 

The solution's ability to ingest and correlate across our security solutions is okay. We can tie it into messaging solutions so that we can get alerts directly rather than logging into the console. 

It reduces alerts. There are not a lot fewer false positives. I'm not sure the percentage it has reduced, however in comparison to before, it is definitely less. 

The product does save a lot of time and we are able to get to tasks and respond quicker. It's helped reduce our mean time to respond.

It's helped us save costs in some areas. It would be based on hours saved. While the solution itself is a little more expensive, operationally, it helps us reduce costs. 

What needs improvement?

We did use the Ranger functionality. However, there was some scanning going on and it caused a lot of noise, so we had to disable it.

The remote console is currently an add-on. Having the remote console without having to pay a huge fee would be ideal. They could reduce the cost a lot.

There was an issue a few months ago where the agent kept getting shut off, however, now there's a newer agent and that's not happening anymore. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for almost two years now. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability has gotten better and better over the last two years.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is deployed across 2,000 machines in four properties. 

It can scale well. We keep deploying it further and it works. 

How are customer service and support?

Technical support does a good job. I've never had to work with support a ton. They do a decent job. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We had previously used a few solutions, including FireEye and Endgame. We left Endgame when they got bought out shortly after we bought them and it felt stagnant. 

How was the initial setup?

The deployment was pretty straightforward. We deployed it originally in a reduced state until we had an outline for a majority of machines when we could protect the environment better. 

We had two or three staff members who handled the deployment. 

There is some maintenance required. We do have to monitor and fix agents and occasionally update the product. There are two to three people who perform occasional maintenance duties. 

What about the implementation team?

We set up the product ourselves. 

What was our ROI?

We have witnessed an ROI, although I can't speak to the exact number or percentage. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I don't have any visibility on the pricing. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We did evaluate other options. We looked into CrowdStrike and SentinelOne and maybe one other option, however, it wasn't considered very long. We demoed CrowdStrike and went with SentinelOne as it was more user-friendly and had a better flow. CrowdStrike felt thrown together and was hard to navigate. 

What other advice do I have?

SentinelOne's ability to be innovative is good. They've done a good job. Over the last two years, the product has continued to improve, change, and add valuable features. 

The quality of the product is good. It feels mature and is well-developed. I don't have any concerns with its technology. 

They are a good strategic security partner. They are a growing company and one of the leading EDR tools in the space. 

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. I would recommend it to others.

Indicators of compromise, such as hash files, IP addresses, and domain names are blocked for all endpoints with one click
Pros and Cons
  • "It is purely cloud-based, meaning you don't need to have something installed, such as a server on-prem. You have cloud management and can access it from anywhere, with integration with SSO, with one click. It's also very lightweight."
  • "Since SentinelOne Hologram was an Attivo Networks product acquired by Microsoft, I have to install a different agent on endpoints for that product. It would be better if the same SentinelOne agent could be used for both the EDR and deception technology."

What is our primary use case?

Initially, we had only detection and response on each endpoint where we installed the agent. Now, we are expanding from detection and response to action. For example, if it finds something on the endpoint, it will not only detect and report it, but it will also respond and block it or isolate the endpoint.

It's all about protecting our endpoints and devices, including servers, Windows and Mac machines, whether laptops or desktops.

How has it helped my organization?

As a security guy, I don't need to have a VMware or Windows expert help me deploy this environment because it's purely cloud-based.

We had Trend Micro with an on-prem server from which we were pushing updates on a daily basis. We have connectivity between our head office and regional offices, but if that connection was overutilized, those updates would not be pushed in a timely manner. Now we don't have that issue. A laptop, for example, just pulls the updates automatically, and they don't need to come through a congested connection.

Overall, it has reduced our risk by 50 to 60 percent.

What is most valuable?

It is purely cloud-based, meaning you don't need to have something installed, such as a server on-prem. You have cloud management and can access it from anywhere, with integration with SSO, with one click. It's also very lightweight. It provides granular control as it is cloud-based, and there is no on-prem hardware or software to manage.

It protects against malware, suspicious activities, and suspicious people on the endpoint itself. The endpoint can be a user machine, a server, or an IoT device.

Another feature I like is that when there are indicators of compromise, such as hash files, IP addresses, or domain names, you can add them straight away with one click, and, boom, everyone will have them blocked right away.

The detection is very good and very fast. Once we install it, files or malicious software that are installed on the system are quarantined or deleted right away. The response is also fast.

We have many old machines with outdated software that have been compromised, with malicious software installed on them. It detects all these issues, including that the software is not updated and that they have all these malicious files. It helps us identify those endpoints. All those machines are sent to be upgraded and to have things removed or installed—whatever actions are needed. And for servers that are running software for the business and that can't be upgraded on-the-fly, isolated, or shut down right away, we create an isolated network for them and give access only to the particular users who need them.

What needs improvement?

Since SentinelOne Hologram was an Attivo Networks product acquired by Microsoft, I have to install a different agent on endpoints for that product. It would be better if the same SentinelOne agent could be used for both the EDR and deception technology. I don't want to have to install an additional agent on all 5,000 of our endpoints. If the SentinelOne EDR agent could be used for both Hologram and SentinelOne, that would be ideal.

For how long have I used the solution?

It's been a year since we started using this product. We recently extended it to XDR for instant response. We have expanded with SentinelOne EDR.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is very stable. So far, we haven't faced an issue.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability is a nine out of 10.

How are customer service and support?

The support is excellent.

As a strategic security partner they are a nine out of 10.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We tried CrowdStrike. The issue with it was that it was not compatible with older iOS and Windows OSes. We have some old servers in our data center that are now undergoing a migration process. On top of that, we have some Windows machines that are running on Windows 8, and it did not support them. We had to switch to SentinelOne since it supports those clients. CrowdStrike is also a very expensive solution.

Trend Micro is not smart; sometimes it's unable to detect malicious files.

SentinelOne is faster. It scans and detects issues and vulnerabilities on endpoints in real time. That's the main thing you look for when it comes to EDR.

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was straightforward and simple for us. We just needed to install the agent on the end-user machines, open communication to their cloud URLs through our firewalls, and do some initial configuration on the console with help from their team.

We have a hybrid structure, not only on-prem. We have services running in the cloud as well as on-prem. We have multiple locations across regions and in different countries.

It's not difficult to maintain since it's purely on the cloud. If there are updates, they notify us. That is the maintenance activity. They update our services. Once all the environments move to the cloud, we won't need to worry about maintenance anymore. It depends on the vendor; there's nothing much to do on our end. They push any end-user updates, or they make them available to us and we push them out from the console.

What about the implementation team?

It was not done in-house. We worked directly with SentinelOne support. They provided trial versions for two to three months and assigned SentinelOne engineers to help deploy it on some machines as a PoC. There were three or four people involved in total, including their engineers. After that PoC we bought the product.

What other advice do I have?

We have a SOC solution as well, and we are trying to integrate playbooks. With the SIEM solution, we are able to run multiple playbooks without issues. Using our proxy gateway and detection technology, we have pretty good options to create playbooks without any hard configuration.

The quality and maturity of the solution are excellent. I would recommend SentinelOne.

High-quality, cost-effective, and stable
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature of Singularity Complete is the Ranger function."

A mature solution that has a good amount of documentation and provides comprehensive threat detection and response
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution's in-place upgrades have been very helpful."
  • "The ability to have more direct purchasing for smaller groups and smaller businesses would be great."

What is our primary use case?

We utilize SentinelOne Singularity Complete as our EDR. The solution has replaced our previous solutions, Trend Micro and Symantec antivirus.

How has it helped my organization?

The Symantec agent we had before would require almost a reboot every time you would make a change, an agent update, or even sometimes in definitions. None of them were as comprehensive as SentinelOne Singularity Complete regarding threat detection and response. I don't believe any of them had any of the rollback features that are available through SentinelOne.

Overall, having more coverage and confidence in our antivirus is part of our decision to choose SentinelOne Singularity Complete. The other consideration was cost. We were going to upgrade to a more comprehensive threat protection solution either way. We were also looking at CrowdStrike then, and SentinelOne beat it by pricing while offering the protection we were looking for.

What is most valuable?

The solution's in-place upgrades have been very helpful. Another valuable feature is the ability to set policy exclusions on different scope levels, such as at the site or across all sites. Having the API access and documentation for the API is very valuable. If we needed a feature that didn't already exist in the SentinelOne console, we could cook it up ourselves and have it run whenever we wanted.

What needs improvement?

I feel like SentinelOne is very locked away from being able to be sold to smaller businesses to self-manage. We did have to jump through a lot of hoops to purchase SentinelOne and have control over it because, most of the time, you're forced to go through a reseller. In our experience, the reseller also wanted to manage it for us.

Unless it's a managed detection and response, that's not adding as much value as adding access outside of our organization that we may not necessarily want. The ability to have more direct purchasing for smaller groups and smaller businesses would be great. However, I understand if that's not part of what SentinelOne wants and is not lucrative for their bottom line.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete since June 2021.

How are customer service and support?

My only issue with the solution's technical support so far is that we can only communicate via email tickets, not phone calls. However, we've still been able to resolve the majority of issues. Their response time is pretty fair. I wish there were more abilities to conduct a remote session because there are a lot of situations where I will have to get walked through some instructions.

Then I have to give feedback saying that an instruction is unavailable, or I can't do this because this device is in this situation or this mode. There may have to be three or four back-and-forth messages before we can proceed to the next step because it isn't an interactive remote session. It is just email communications with a delay every time, which adds to some frustration.

Suppose there's something that's concerning to us that we really wanted to make sure wasn't a false negative as a threat. While we were worried about it, we would just have to wait for responses and be unable to communicate with anybody.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

How was the initial setup?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete's initial setup is straightforward.

What about the implementation team?

We did not use an integrator, reseller, or consultant for the solution's deployment. I have had some experience with SentinelOne in the past. We just read through some of the documentation and asked a couple of questions. There was also some information on what other administrators have done to implement the solution.

That has worked well, and things have been pretty smooth sailing since the implementation. I've been pretty happy in that regard, and it wasn't a big pain to replace our existing antivirus solution. Two other guys were involved in the solution's deployment, but I was heading up the task.

What was our ROI?

We have not seen a return on investment with SentinelOne Singularity Complete because we have not used it. It has just added costs for us that we're not taking advantage of.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

SentinelOne Singularity Complete's pricing is not terrible. It's not enough to make us want to move away from using SentinelOne. The solution's pricing is not too bad for what it's offering, like the documentation that comes with it. I feel like it should be an optional add-on for people who may not be using things to integrate or may not want to integrate things.

What other advice do I have?

We have used very little of SentinelOne Singularity Complete's interoperability with other solutions. It has looked like it has been nice because we have been scoping out the use of a managed detection and response and have SentinelOne Singularity Complete plugin with other solutions for log output. There hasn't really been anything we wanted to use that SentinelOne was incompatible with.

I believe SentinelOne Singularity Complete is very capable of ingesting and correlating across our security solutions. I don't think I've seen any solutions that would necessarily outperform it. It's done everything that we've needed it to. Again, we have not used it extensively.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has not helped us consolidate our security solutions, but that's our choice. We like going into the console and seeing everything within there and the dashboards we already have access to.

I can't say that I think SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped reduce alerts. We would like to use SentinelOne to correlate our alerts so we're getting alerts from multiple different areas to see what matches up there. Currently, we still have an ad hoc solution where we're looking at different sources for that information because we don't have it all trusting each other yet.

Overall, for supply chain attacks, we're hesitant to give access to other products to our SentinelOne. We just don't want to put all our eggs in one basket, but that's more of a mindset problem than a functionality problem.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped free up our staff for other projects. The solution's automation functionality, notifications, alerts, additions with its API, and custom tools to do what we want have helped me not to have to go in and manually check for things. For example, SentinelOne says they do not need to do static file scans other than when you first install the agent.

Our compliance requires that we still have static agent scans on a regular basis, preferably daily. You can launch those from within the console, but it's not viable for me to log in to the console daily and initiate that. Since there's no ability to schedule that in the future, that was best done with the API script that runs automatically and can give us feedback on how it went.

I believe SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped reduce our organization's mean time to detect. We get some good context within there of what the threat was. Most of the time, it has pretty good notes regarding what it got flagged for if it's behavior-based, but some static file threats don't show the indicators.

We do not know what to do with some threats or understand what it is. We've been told we would need to get the SentinelOne vigilance or managed detection and response to fill that gap. We have been looking at managed detection and response but haven't put it in place yet.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped reduce our organization's mean time to respond from our previous antivirus solutions. The solution gave us some more context than we had and also the ability to isolate each endpoint. If an endpoint looks scary and we don't know what it's doing exactly, we can cut off all of its internet access except SentinelOne until we feel it's a clean endpoint. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped reduce our mean time to respond by 20 minutes.

Singularity Complete has helped reduce our organizational risk. There have been multiple things that could have potentially been an incident, and they were stopped in their tracks by the solution. For that, we've been able to demonstrate the solution's value to our leadership in terms of keeping it.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has not helped our organization save on its costs. SentinelOne Singularity Complete isn't optional and was forced onto us from the licensing. We didn't really get a choice on whether we wanted those extra features, but we had to pay for the SentinelOne Singularity Complete add-on, which is just a blanket cost.

If it was up to us, we might not have chosen it, but it was not. We don't use many of the features, and many of the things we like are within the basic SentinelOne license.

We earlier used SentinelOne Complete, and then we used SentinelOne Complete with Singularity. There hasn't been a great improvement since we've done that. We haven't used many of its features or had any guidance on recommendations that would be helpful to put into place without having to buy anything else.

Most of the time, if we wanted to use anything in the marketplace, we would have to start paying for something we don't already have or integrate with something we aren't using.

I would say SentinelOne Singularity Complete is pretty mature, and there's a good amount of documentation of details. I would say it's much more mature right now than a year and a half ago when it was introduced. I looked into it then and said there's nothing that looks useful to us here.

Now, there are actually many more applications and things to integrate with it that we didn't have access to before. We're still not using a lot of it. As far as recommending it to somebody else or another company, I am confident that it will plug into all the major utilities and tools you may want.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete requires maintenance, but it's not bad. We need to go into the console and initiate updates for select devices when there are updates available. We need to ensure that we stay within supported and not end-of-life releases of SentinelOne. After those select devices have been tested out and we know there are not many issues with them, I will go ahead and release those to all the other devices we manage in the rolling phases.

That's not too much work. I would not classify it as maintenance, but when detection comes up while using the platform, that works well when we need to check that out. We haven't necessarily caught something that needed to be caught.

I am impressed with what they're doing both for detections for our endpoints and also for the security world at large. A while back, they headed up some of the investigations and publications about the supply chain attack for 3CX software, which was something that we had used and were impacted by. However, thanks to SentinelOne, we did not have any fallout from that attack.

Overall, I rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete an eight out of ten.
