SentinelOne Singularity Complete Reviews

We outsourced the operation to a partner, a supplier, and they have managed those services. If the product does identify some abnormal behavior, our supplier is informed, and our main IT division or group IT division is informed. They correct the machine, and they do whatever they need to do.

Nowadays, there is a lot of malware and various other malicious threats. Our system is an internal system. There might be a firewall there, however, malware can still get through an email. However, this solution is very good at detecting abnormal behavior. They act very fast and quarantine machines well. 

We find that having an endpoint protection solution allows us to adapt and react faster. 

I can put something on my pen drive and get the solution to scan it and see if there are any issues. They can identify and block without affecting any core sections. 

The solution is easy to set up.

It's stable.

The solution works quite well and I don't have many notes for improvement. 

The solution can use up a lot of resources when scanning. It would be ideal if it was lighter. 

We find the initial setup does take some time, as you have to do a lot of whitelisting. We'd like the process to be faster. 

I've used the solution for a while. It's been more than two years. 

The solution is pretty stable. I'd rate it seven out of ten. It's pretty reliable. 

You can scale the solution. However, you do have to pay more to expand as you need to purchase more licenses. At this point, we get additional blocks of licenses when we need them. We do not upgrade one license at a time. 

We have about 5,000 clients on the solution currently.

I do not have much experience with technical support.

We also have Microsoft Defender. They are two different products. We use Defender on our machines and workstations, however, not for endpoint security reasons. 

IT installed the solution on my machine. 

That said, my understanding is the initial setup is not overly complex. At first, however, we had to do some whitelisting. You need to perform a few operations, and we had to reinstall the OS, install a backup, and handle whitelisting. While it takes time, it's not hard. 

I'm not sure of the exact pricing of the solution. That's handled by a different team.

We have an IT department that may look at other options, depending on the use case. They've looked at, for example, Sophos, however, they found SentinelOne to be more suitable for us. 

I'm an end-user and not very technical.

While the solution is cloud-based, there's an on-prem server, and that is for the administration of our nodes. Mainly, the subscription is controlled by the cloud.

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. Depending on the use case and if it makes sense for the company, I'd recommend the product.

The primary use case is as an endpoint detection and response software. Basically, it is an enhanced antivirus, anti-malware, and anti-ransomware solution. It protects from ransomware attacks and other types of cyber attacks. It protects the endpoint from malicious actions.

Protection from cyber attacks is the feature we find the most valuable.

It's a stable product.

We find the solution to be scalable.

Technical support is good. 

The pricing is not too high.

It has a pretty simple user interface and is user-friendly.

They need to improve how we install the software. For the agent of SentinelOne in the endpoint, it's not an automated process. We have to download it and then upload it on the endpoint. That is something that can be made simple. The uploading of the software in the endpoint, if that can be done publicly, would be great. The setup should be available publicly. The agent installation should all be done in the cloud.

I've been using the solution for more than a year.

The solution is stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

The solution scales well. You can expand it as needed. 

We are a small organization and have around 200 to 250 people on the solution. 

The management is outsourced, and I find they are doing a very good job. We are satisfied with how we are able to get help if we need it. 

This is the first EDR solution we used. We did not have another solution in place beforehand. We only used basic antivirus software previously.

The initial setup is annoying since you have to download the agent and then upload it to the endpoint. 

For maintenance, basically, I'm the admin for SentinelOne. Also, there is a different organization altogether to whom we have outsourced the management of SentinelOne. They have their own employees. Their particular team would be working for our organization. They are an SoC organization, and they work 24/7 for various clients. We are one of their clients.

The pricing is reasonable. 

I'm not sure of the exact costs, as those are managed by a different team.

I'm a client and end-user. 

The solution is pretty easy to implement and administrate. We have not tried to integrate it with other solutions. While the pricing is reasonable, it's a bit more than typical antivirus software. That said, it has advanced functionalities that make the price worthwhile. Therefore, I would rate it nine out of ten. 

SentinelOne is an antivirus and an EDR platform. We are using is simply for its antivirus and EDR features.

The solution is overall very good in terms of protecting endpoints and servers from malicious activities, malware, cyber attacks, viruses, worms, and so on. It offers really good security.

The initial setup is easy.

We have been happy with the stability.

It is possible to scale the product.

There is good documentation available, and support works to help users resolve issues.

It doesn't have application control capability. Other antivirus or EDR solutions have that. I would be happy if SentinelOne added that to their platform. This is the first point.

The second point is SentinelOne should provide support for legacy open-source operating systems. For example, old versions of Oracle are not supported by SentinelOne.

The third point is that SentinelOne does not support a few platforms, including IBM AIX and UNIX-based OS. These three platforms are almost all used in all enterprises, and SentinelOne does not support them. If SentinelOne provides agents for these missing platforms, it'll be very good.

It would be ideal if they offered video support for troubleshooting issues.

I've been dealing with the solution for just over one year.

The solution is stable and reliable. We have been happy with its performance. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

I'd give it a four out of five in terms of stability.

The scalability has been very good.

There are thousands of both users and servers. Everyone uses it.

I have raised a lot of tickets, and their support is very good. However, with other members, when we have raised tickets in the past, we were able to have technical sessions through Zoom, WebEx, or Teams very easily. That's true, for example, with Microsoft, Cisco, McAfee, and Kaspersky. With SentinelOne, they are providing very good support, excellent support, however, their engineers are not very interested in providing online sessions, which is more convenient.

When you face any issue, they always provide documentation and videos - and that's very good. However, sometimes it's required that they show us how something is done. Doing some sort of video call helps with the walk-through. SentinelOne engineers, most of them, are not so much interested in doing this.

We did previously use a different solution. However, I can't speak to which product that was.

Other solutions that I usually use in other organizations were on-premises.  This one is cloud-based. The point is, when you have your antivirus or EDR solution on-prem, that's your responsibility to troubleshoot the core server and do that maintenance patch and all of those kinds of tasks. When the solution is hosted in the cloud, all of these responsibilities belong to the provider, in this case, SentinelOne. When a new patch is getting released from the vendor, normally, if we were using legacy platforms, we would have to upgrade each endpoint one by one. By using cloud-based EDRs, it can be done automatically and reduces maintenance time.

The solution is very easy to set up. It's not overly complex or difficult. 

The implementation strategy was very simple: removing the old antivirus solution and replacing that with SentinelOne.

It took us three months to migrate and deploy.

We have ten to 14 people that can handle deployment and maintenance. Only one person, however, needs to handle typical maintenance tasks. 

We handled the initial setup ourselves. We did not need any outside assistance. 

Licensing is part of the procurement team. I can't speak to the exact cost of the product.

We are a customer of SentinelOne.

SentinelOne does not have a version. SentinelOne is a centralized platform that is hosted in the cloud. It's the agent that we install on servers and clients, it has versions we are using the latest version of agents. 

The product has two deployment options, cloud deployment, and on-prem deployment. Most people prefer to use cloud deployment in the way we do.

I recommend this solution often. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

My advice for other companies that do not use SentinelOne is this: that everyone, every company, likely has its own antivirus solution, whether it's McAfee, Symantec, Kaspersky, and so on. These platforms provide only an antivirus solution, however. If they replace their solutions with SentinelOne, they will have two features: EPP, endpoint protection from antiviruses, and EDR, endpoint protection and response features. They will not need to install two applications, one antivirus, and one EDR, on their clients' computers; only one agent can do anything.

SentinelOne provides an amazing amount of visibility over clients and servers. Anything done on a server, on a client, with a network connection, login, logout, changes in directories, et cetera, is recorded. Using query searches, you can find what happened very easily.

It runs continuously and uses AI to look for any suspicious activity. If it does determine that there is a virus or something going on that shouldn't be happening, it not only stops the process but also completely logs the whole function. It tells you in a map version how the attack happened and how it was stopped. It is brilliant. In the past, for example, if I had the same problem in Webroot, I would've had to submit the case to Webroot for viewing so that they could, as a human, literally determine what the cause was, but by that time, it is way too late, whereas, this is the real-time protection.

It protects your machine, and it does an excellent job using AI to determine an attack and stop the attack. Its most powerful feature is prevention, and it can unwind ransomware activity as well. So, it is a really useful product in that sense.

There is the ability to SSH into a machine even if the machine has been disconnected from the network. When a real hazard happens, SentinelOne disconnects it from the internet so that no more transactions can occur, but I still have access to the machine. One of the bigger benefits is that no harm could be done because there is no communication with the internet, but I still have the ability to go in, restart a machine, do some investigations, and make some things happen.

One of the things they could do is extend the product range to include Android and iPhone so that you could have the app on your phone as well. There is probably something going on there with that, but that's something that they're lacking at the moment. For instance, if I was to have to recommend a client to protect their phone, I'd have to recommend Norton or something else. I don't have an answer within the SentinelOne solution.

I have been using this solution for close to three years.

It is perfect. I've seen very few problems related to the app. It is not using too much of the PC's power. It does not make PCs slower. So, I find it the best of both worlds. You reduce the impact of the product on the user, but at the same time, thoroughly protect the user, no matter what he does.

You can certainly have thousands of SentinelOne users. We have 250 users. In terms of our plans to increase its usage, I provide IT as a service. So, as I add clients, I always add licenses for those clients.

Their support is very good. I would rate them a five out of five.

Positive

It was straightforward. It probably took me a week to get 250 machines converted.

It can be done in-house very easily. You probably need one staff member that knows how to implement it, and after that, it pretty much runs itself. It requires very little maintenance.

It is not sold as a consumer product. It is only sold based on the number of licenses. So, as an MSP, you're probably going to pay about three and a half dollars per license, per month to have SentinelOne.

I would advise others to go for it. It is great. As an MSP, the peace of mind it gives me is really significant. While the cost of SentinelOne is higher than Webroot, the reality is that the peace of mind and the knowledge that you are probably not going to get a complete attack, simply because SentinelOne stepped in and stopped it, is worth every penny.

I would rate it a ten out of ten. It is absolutely fantastic.

We use SentinelOne to collect logs and data. We will connect it to other tools and places in the future.

It is easy to collect and retain logs with SentinelOne. When you need to compare information, the data is available. It also has the possibility to configure information. It integrates well with all the other solutions we use. 

The only concern we have is that there are a few features that were not readily available. We use a lot of application files that didn't have a connection.

We would also like to see integration with other tools that have to collect the logs.

Although Microsoft claims the use of building artificial intelligence to correlate events, we have actually had a couple of events that should have logs but did not. The solution is not at the same level in terms of building artificial intelligence.

SentinelOne can do a better job of not only creating corrective action based on the correlation. For example, someone was trying to repeatedly change their password. What they didn't realize was that they weren't connected correctly.

I have been using SentinelOne for six months.

SentinelOne is a stable product.

Scalability is based on the measure. There is no limitation regarding scalability if you pay for the upgrades.

Technical support is good. When you need help from Microsoft, there is a long list of resources to help understand the issues.

Positive

The initial setup is straightforward as we have contracts with Microsoft Office Supplies, commodities, defender, and Active Directory.

I would rate the ease of initial setup of SentinelOne a five out of five. It is easy.

Our company used a third party that provided the utility. 

This solution is less expensive than its competitors. You might need to buy additional space depending on how much they are willing to provide. I would rate the pricing a five out of five.

We selected SentinelOne because it was less expensive than the competitors. We also saw the speed of evolution with Microsoft, so it can be involved theoretically when compared to Splunk.

We also chose SentinelOne because of the balance between features. It is stable and has enough choices. Being with Microsoft, we felt confident that the solution would evolve.

If you are considering SentinelOne, you should consider the cost of storage. Otherwise, the product is easy to deploy. You either need to have your own security operating center or hire someone that will use Sentinel or the secondary service. For you to consume the data, you may have had an internal security center or Sentinel.

With SentinelOne you have to invest extra cost. You have to always think of how much it will cost you to delay a response by a couple of days. If the incident is going to cost two days of revenue for the organization, that is much more than the cost of the solution.

I would rate SentinelOne an eight out of ten because of the price point and the features you get. 

We use the solution for anti-malware, policy enforcement, and blocking USBs, for example. It's used for detection in general, and for protection and threat blocking.

The solution is very straightforward to set up. 

The features are great. It is excellent for detection and device blocking.

The network control has been useful, as well as the firewall control. 

The solution is both stable and scalable. 

The inventory is a good feature. However, it's not up to date. The delay in updating inventory is ten minutes. If it can be improved, it will help a lot. 

For the general IT management, there is a need to correlate the software version from inventory with the CVE information. For example, we have the CVE, however, it doesn't take into account the current version. We need it to stay up to date with the latest version. 

I've used the solution for less than one year.

The solution is quite stable. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. 

The product can scale very well. 

We have less than 50 people on the solution currently. We are using it in a smaller environment.

We do have plans to increase usage in the future. We are, in fact, still deploying it. So the department is not finished yet.

We get technical support from the vendor. 

I've also used Microsoft Defender.

It offers an easy implementation process. It's not overly complex or difficult. Setting everything up on the cloud is simple. The deployment was done in a matter of days. In the end, it took less than a week. We had two people handle the deployment process. 

We did have some outside assistance. They helped with half of the process. 

We found the ROI to be quite high. However, it would vary, depending on the contract. It's a good investment. I'd give it a five out of five.

I cannot speak to the exact pricing. That said, it's very reasonable. I'd rate it five out of five in terms of affordability. There are cheaper options; however, it is quite affordable. We pay a yearly licensing fee. 

We are a customer and end-user. We deal with a SentinelOne partner. 

I can't speak to which version we are using.

Whether or not the solution would work for an organization depends on the environment and other factors. That said, we are very satisfied with the product overall. 

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.

We use SentinelOne mainly for lateral movement, ransomware, anti-malware, AI engine, and forensics.

The most valuable features of SentinelOne are the lateral movement and the use of the Active Directory.

SentinelOne can improve by having better integration with Active Directory.

SentinelOne can be deployed on-premise and in the cloud.

I have been using SentinelOne for approximately two years.

SentinelOne is stable. However, the only issue I had was with legacy system, such as older kernels. The newer systems are more stable.

The scalability of SentinelOne is good, but my biggest concern is they need to find some way to automatically install their agents to specifically Microsoft Windows devices because not every IT infrastructure has SECM of others that automatically deploy it. It would be helpful during the migration of new customers.

We have approximately 4,000 systems using the solution and plan on adding another 400.

I haven't had the opportunity to interact with SentinelOne support.

I have previously used Microsoft Windows Defender.

The initial setup of SentinelOne is very easy. You only need to turn it on and it starts working with a couple of clicks. The ease of implementation is SentinelOne strongest feature.

We have three people deploying SentinelOne. As part of the team deploying the agent, there are multiple teams involved, and each one can deploy an agent when they have their own time.

SentinelOne can cost approximately $70 per device.

The advice I would give others that are thinking of implementing SentinelOne is if they have any other solutions, I would highly recommend them to start using it, especially if they have Active Directory. It's very good at picking up weird anomalies.

I  rate SentinelOne an eight out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for endpoint protection. 

SentinelOne is very simple to install and very simple to manage. It's very aggressive, so it does protection well, and it seems to be stopping attacks that other solutions cannot.

The ability to integrate this product with an antivirus solution would be welcome. Even consolidation with more security products, like Umbrella networking abilities etc. to provide more on this platform, that would be great.

We have been implementing this product for our customers for a few months now. 

The solution is very stable.

We have implemented this product for companies ranging from 10 to 200 endpoints, with many hundreds of users and it has been fine with this volume. 

We get support from our local reseller in Israel and their support has been fine.

We trialed an ESET product, but it didn't provide us with the solution we needed. 

The implementation time depends on the size of the network but it's usually very short, no more than a day or two.  

The pricing of the solution seems reasonable, we got a discount but it still seems reasonable. The licensing cost is $3 to $4 per endpoint and can be paid monthly or yearly, with the price changing according to commitment. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten. 

I would say it is important to understand all the settings to deliver exactly what the customer requires.
