SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint Reviews

It is used in my customer's companies. It handles incident management, firewall implementation, and device control.

The most valuable feature is the rollback. 

Remediation is great. 

The ranger feature for work devices is most useful.

The reporting part is awesome.

It is easy to deploy the product. 

It should not limit itself to EDR. I need some other solutions to integrate into it. It should give us more visibility by integrating other solutions with it.

I want some other solutions like email security. Email security should also integrate with it to get more visibility on it.

Agent upgrades might cause some issues. Most of the time, an agent gets removed after it is not communicating with the server. After every three months, it will get automatically removed. That might cause an issue.

The solution is expensive. It is costlier than Trend Micro and Palo Alto XDR.

I've used the solution for around six months.

The solution is stable. We've found the performance to be good. It's light. There are no bugs or glitches. 

We have 1500 users on the solution right now. It is pretty scalable. 

With technical support, I've got an immediate response, and when I log a ticket, I get good assistance. 

I had worked on Palo Alto XDR as well. However, the remediation is not so good. There is no option with the rollback as well. That might cause data loss during a ransomware attack.

I'm also aware of the Trend Micro solution. 

It's easy to set up and has a very lightweight agent. It's very easy to deploy.

The time it takes to deploy all depends upon the number of uses, the number of clients, which machines are there, et cetera. In the Ranger, you have options. If you have advanced features for deployment, Ranger deployment, it is easy.

The solution is a bit pricey and they should look at the costs involved. You have to pay extra for certain features, such as the Ranger feature. Everything should be included in the subscription. 

We are partners. 

It's a good solution as compared to others. In terms of MML features, it is fine.

I'd rate it eight out of ten. 

We primarily use the solution at our endpoints. We use it for security.

It's catching a lot of malicious and suspicious threats. That's good for us. 

We are able to write some custom rules on SentinelOne.

The setup is simple. 

Right now, the solution meets our needs. We do not need anything added to it. 

Maybe they can develop some firewall aspects for it to better protect us. If they did that, we can write a lot of rules for the firewall and custom rules.

I've been using the solution for about two years. 

The solution is stable and reliable. It catches a lot of malicious and suspicious threats. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

The solution scales well and can work across platforms. We can use it with MacOS, Linux, and Windows Servers. You can use it with everything.

We have 600 people on the solution right now. It is used throughout the company.

We may increase usage in our company. 

Technical support is great. They are very responsive. For example, today, if I open a ticket, they will likely give me an answer in 24 hours.

Positive

I used FireEye and Symantec. However, SentinelOne is better than them. It's more flexible and catches more threats. 

We found the initial setup to be very simple. You just click through, and you're up and running. 

I'd rate it five out of five in terms of ease of deployment.

We're deploying it every month. SentinelOne sends updates every month and we action them. 

Licensing is paid on a yearly basis. I can't speak to the exact pricing. 

I'm not sure which version number we are currently on. 

If a company has a lot of people and needs to protect its many endpoints, this is a great option.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. 

We use SentinelOne daily for endpoint protection and restriction on using USB devices. 

The protection and management provided by SentinelOne is good.

I would like to see the reports from SentinelOne more customizable, as there are very few options.

I have been using SentinelOne for four months. I work as a senior network security engineer.

The management of SentinelOne is easy, it does not put too much burden on the machine. We will be upgrading to Windows 11 in the upcoming months, we will be able to better comment on stability after that.

Our organization has close to 3,000 machines with approximately 2,000 users. It is easy to scale.

We were using McAfee prior to SentinelOne. McAfee has a wide range of reports and is more customizable than SentinelOne. We switched from McAfee because we were no longer satisfied with the support they provided. They were no longer providing prompt responses, tickets were taking too long to get resolved.

The other reason we switched was that McAfee was a traditional antivirus working on a definition basis. They have not moved on to the next generation of antivirus. McAfee needs to focus on the behavior of the program and machine files. If you want this, you need to choose a different McAfee product. They were not putting everything in one place, but rather offering a buffet of offerings, driving the cost up.

The initial setup of this solution was simple. We did the setup ourselves, but did require a little help from the vendor.

I would give SentinelOne a four out of five for ease of setup.

The deployment of SentinelOne is easy. If you calculate the installation of the product and make all the packages ready, it takes about a week. Implementation was another month to go through and replace the older systems and install the new ones.

The pricing of SentinelOne is less than McAfee.

I would advise anyone looking to implement SentinelOne to look before you set up. Know how many machines are working in your network and which type of communication they are doing, whether it is internal or on the internet. No matter what solution you pick if it is SentinelOne, Carbon Black, McAfee, or Symantec check the usage of your machines.

I would rate SentinelOne a nine out of ten overall.

We are using it for endpoint security. It acts as an antivirus as well as is useful for endpoint detection. We are using the same product for both use cases. 

SentinelOne is very lightweight. It doesn’t consume much memory of endpoints. Endpoints don't hang, and machine performance doesn’t get impacted. Their technical support is also very nice.

It has all the features that other leading products in the market provide. They should keep enhancing it based on the challenges in the market. I am fine with its detection capability, but they can work more on deep inspection.

I have been using this solution for around two years.

It is stable. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of stability.

It is scalable. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of scalability. We have more than 1,200 users who are using this solution.

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

Positive

It is very easy to implement or install. I would rate it a five out of five in terms of the ease of setup. It does require maintenance by someone.

Its cost is yearly. It is not much costlier than other leading products available in the market. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing.

We were looking for an antivirus and EDR solution. We evaluated some of the products, and finally, we decided to go for SentinelOne EDR. CrowdStrike was one of the solutions we evaluated. SentinelOne was lightweight, but CrowdStrike had a more secure door.

I would rate it a nine out of ten.

The most important feature is the roll-back feature because when any system is corrupted, we can easily restore it within a few seconds. Also, if an end-user is not connected to your network, they can communicate with the central manager. We can be notified of any end-user activity with a central dashboard. The solution is also a very lightweight agent model compared to other solutions like Sophos, Carbon Black and the app action from X-microsite product. SentinelOne does not use the RAM SCP installation for the agent, and the user interface is also straightforward.

The setup process could be improved, and it would be good if artificial intelligence were added as an additional feature in the next release.

We used SentinelOne at my previous company before I left eight months ago, and it was deployed on cloud base.

It is a stable solution.

It is a scalable solution, and we have about 800 users using SentinelOne. We only need one person for maintenance, and they can offer maintenance in person and remotely via email and SMS.

I rate the technical support a ten out of ten. The support is very easy if you connect with global support. A company focused on non-technical issues can't easily adopt the solution. You have a support team from the layman language.

The initial setup was a bit complex but very simple if you set up a single order.

I rate the price of SentinelOne a ten out of ten, meaning it is the best price in the market. This is because SentinelOne has a nominal cost. For example, if CrowdStrike costs $1000, SentinelOne provides the same features for about $7 to $8.

I rate this solution a ten out of ten. I have around 10 to 15 years of experience in security and have used products like Sophos, Micro and CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike and SentinelOne are the best, but SentinelOne is preferred because of its great features and nominal cost.

Our primary use cases for SentinelOne are data endpoint management, document version tracking, and email security.

A concrete fact is that it allows us insight into our data and our security and helped us protect our intellectual property.

For us, the dashboard is the most valuable feature. The analytics that you can pull out of the actual tool are valuable.

Their CASB tool needs to mature. I think there are some CASB vendors out there that have a dashboard tool that's much more mature than SentinelOne. That would be the only constructive criticism that I have.

I have been using SentinelOne for more than five years now. 

I have total confidence in the stability of the solution. 

SentinelOne's scalability is very good. The solution is very flexible. 

I was extremely happy with their technical staff. The solution's tech support is top-notch. They have some really good engineers on their team.

We previously used McAfee ePO and we switched to SentinelOne just because of the customer service and the product.

The initial setup was complex, but their technical staff are professionals and were able to help us custom-tailor the package we needed. On a scale of one to five, in terms of the complexity, with one being impossible to do and five effortless, I would put SentinelOne at about a four.

Deployment was about a six-month project for us and it included a discovery period and learning about our environments. We worked with SentinelOne to learn the environments and figure out what we needed to be successful. Then, we focused on an implementation period and then just monitored it after that. It was about a month and a half for each phase of that six-month period.

We implemented it in-house but we worked directly with SentinelOne. Our experience with them was fantastic. I wouldn't want to do it without those folks again.

The ROI we saw was that for the first time we had actual dashboard data on our data usage for our cloud vendor that we chose and also for our on-premises. We purchased our servers from Dell and it allowed us to actually get a better grip on what we actually needed to buy versus what we were buying.

SentinelOne's licensing costs are reasonable. I can't provide hard numbers, but I can say that SentinelOne is a much better solution with better value and a lower cost than the McAfee ePO. 

We did not evaluate any other options before switching to SentinelOne. 

SentinelOne would be my go-to security provider. I would recommend that others go there first. They will get solicitations from McAfee and such because McAfee knows they're losing that business, but they just can't offer what SentinelOne offers.

Overall, I would give the product a nine out of ten rating. 

Everyone who is a client of ours gets SentinelOne by default. It provides ransomware protection, malware protection, and increased security. Those are our top-three selling points for SentinelOne when we talk to clients.

Prior to deploying Sentinel One, we had a team of staff members dedicated to ransomware prevention and malware alerts. Since deploying Sentinel One, we have been able to allow that team to focus on other proactive security measures for our clients.

The dashboard alerting is great and it has helped us out a ton.

SentinelOne has also greatly reduced incident response time, based on the toolsets and the ability to deploy it to new companies through a script. That has been very helpful. It has decreased the amount of time spent on incident response by 40 to 60 hours a month.

And when it comes to mean time to repair, while we haven't had a situation where we've had to reload an operating system or repair to that extent, we've used the 1-Click Rollback feature which saves several hours over a reload of a PC. 

The detection and response feature is really good for us. 

Also, there is a feature called Applications, and it shows all the critical applications that are on devices that may need to be reviewed.

The solution’s Static AI and Behavioral AI technologies are great when it comes to protecting against file-based, fileless, and Zero-day attacks. I would rate that aspect at eight out of 10. They have been great at detection.

The solution’s 1-Click Rollback for reversing unauthorized changes is also huge for us. That is one of the top reasons we have SentinelOne in place. For example, we had a site that had downloaded malware on a share for their sales office. It was trying to move laterally throughout the network but SentinelOne detected it. We then used the 1-Click option to remove it from the 10 or so PCs it had infected. Then we blocked it based on the information SentinelOne provided to us. That way if it happened again, it would already be blocked and wouldn't be allowed to launch.

One area of SentinelOne that definitely has room for improvement is the reporting. The canned reports are clunky and we haven't been able to pull a lot of good information directly from them.

Also, integration is almost non-existent. We would really like to see integration with ConnectWise. Within ConnectWise Automate, you're only allowed to deploy at the top-level group. Our company is dealership-focused, but if we have a parent dealership that has 10 sub-dealerships with SentinelOne, we have to treat them as one large group instead of one parent and 10 sub-groups. That's been a pain point for us. We've done some workarounds, but since there is no integration, it's tough.

I have been using SentinelOne for about two years.

We haven't had any issues, outages, or upgrades. I would rate the stability at 10 out of 10.

One of the features that we love about SentinelOne is that we don't have to buy licenses ahead of time. It just scales up as we grow. We're bringing on a client now that has 500 endpoints and I don't have to worry about contacting sales at SentinelOne and getting a PO for 500 licenses. It just scales up and we're charged based on what we use, which is awesome.

The solution is on 100 percent of our clients that we manage, and that's going to be the goal moving forward. Our sales team does not put in a contract without SentinelOne.

SentinelOne technical support has always been very quick and responsive. We haven't used them a lot. We're a technology company as well and we're able to fix the minor stuff ourselves or by looking at a knowledge base.

One of our concerns or complaints at the beginning was the lack of training, which they fixed. They allowed us to schedule our staff to do the eight hours of free training, which was great. That would have been my only complaint, but that was resolved a few months ago.

Positive

We didn't have any EDR solution in place like SentinelOne. We had Bitdefender for antivirus, but that has been removed. Our existing antivirus was failing in several ways. It wasn't detecting everything that was coming through. That was the big catalyst for the switch.

Originally, we had SentinelOne through SolarWinds, which was our previous RMM tool. And when we migrated to ConnectWise, we moved our existing licenses over.

The initial setup was straightforward. It was through our RMM. We bought licenses and we had a one-click deployment to deploy that software. And when we migrated, the gentleman who helped us was awesome. We migrated 9,000 endpoints from that RMM directly into SentinelOne, and he did a lot of the heavy lifting. We just had to check and confirm things were getting moved over.

The migration of the 9,000 agents took 10 to 14 days.

Our implementation strategy included a deployment where we would do a test phase. We picked certain endpoints at different clients and we would deploy and set it in a "listen-only" mode and see what it caught. If everything was good, we would then turn it on to regular mode. That process helped a lot in the implementation.

We have about 75 people in our company using SentinelOne. The main roles among them are about 60 percent help desk, which is view-only; 20 percent client-side, which is reporting and view-only; and the rest are our engineering level where they have the ability to do rollbacks and fix certain issues that are coming in. There is very little maintenance involved with the solution, maybe a handful of hours a month. We have it set up to auto-update. Prior to that, we had to set up our script to download the most recent version, but that's all been replaced now with automation. Maintenance on the actual system is very minimal.

In the past, we had to purchase licenses in advance, so if we hit our license limit, we could not expand until we got a signed agreement in place with the sales rep after the back-and-forth. That meant if a client had ransomware and they had 200 agents, we couldn't deploy right away if we were up against our limit. So we always had that balancing act of figuring out if we were close to our limit and whether we needed to buy more licenses? We ended up paying for licenses we didn't need because we had to buy them in packages of 100.

We now pay based on usage. They do an audit once a quarter and calculate any overages. We pay a set amount quarterly, based on our licenses in use, and then they true-up the figure. Right now we have 12,800 agents with SentinelOne on them. We charge our clients monthly, so it would be really difficult for us to write a check to SentinelOne, in advance, for a full year's worth, at that level. It's been great for us to have the quarterly payments.

We looked at CylancePROTECT in addition to SentinelOne. We liked the pricing better and the contract options better with SentinelOne. The deployment also seemed to be easier. In addition, SentinelOne detected things that others missed. We did a few quick trials of other solutions, but SentinelOne seemed to be the best in terms of detection. For example, we did a test with Mimikatz and SentinelOne detected it immediately, whereas some of the others bypassed or didn't see it at all.

And when we talked to the ConnectWise sales rep—because ConnectWise was integrated with Cylance at that point, and SentinelOne was not—the rep told us that they were actually dropping Cylance and moving to SentinelOne over the next year for integration, which was a big factor for us.

My advice would be to implement SentinelOne immediately. It is one of the top things that we've implemented and it has saved us countless hours. It's really hard to quantify the savings, but if a client were to get ransomware, it could involve weeks of several team members working around the clock to get them back up and running. Since we've implemented this, we haven't had to do that in an environment where we had experienced having to do so previously.

The biggest thing I've learned from using SentinelOne is that there are a lot more attacks out there than a typical antivirus will display. Regular antivirus, rather than an EDR-type platform, gives people a false sense of security because there are a lot of processes running in the background that the typical antivirus solution is not equipped to catch. It was eye-opening when we started deploying this at clients, locations where we felt we had very good peace of mind in terms of what was happening. SentinelOne started detecting things left and right that were completely unable to be seen prior.

Our main use cases are endpoint protection, EDR, and automated threat response for users and servers. We also use it for ransomware protection, threat hunting, and incident investigations. One thing that helped us a lot is the single-agent approach, because we don’t need multiple tools or agents installed on every machine.

It reduces complexity and makes deployment and updates much easier across different entities. The automated isolation of compromised endpoints has also saved a lot of manual effort. Overall, we use it to improve detection, response, and visibility on all endpoints with minimum overhead.

SentinelOne has had a very positive impact on our security posture. We see threats being stopped in real time without waiting for manual action. This has reduced the stress on our team and lowered the number of incidents we need to handle directly.

The automatic isolation and remediation really helped us shorten response time. The ransomware rollback feature also gives peace of mind, especially in critical environments.

We now have much better visibility into what actually happened during an attack, which helps with investigations and closing gaps. Overall, it has saved us time and improved our confidence against modern threats.

The best feature for us is the autonomous response. We don’t have to wait for a security analyst—SentinelOne isolates the device, kills the malicious process, and stops lateral movement automatically. The ransomware rollback capability is also something we really value because it gives confidence that even if something slips through, we can undo the damage.

The visibility and forensic details are excellent; it actually tells a story of what happened instead of just showing alerts. This helps our investigations and audits a lot.

Performance-wise, the agent is lightweight, and deployment was very smooth across different entities. Overall, the combination of prevention + response + forensics in one platform has been the biggest advantage for us.

SentinelOne works very well overall, but there are a few areas that could improve. The reporting and dashboards could be more customizable, especially for audit and compliance needs. Sometimes the UI feels a bit complex when you’re trying to drill down quickly.

More built-in analytics and ready-made reports would help a lot. Also, alert tuning could be simpler, because in some cases we still get false positives that require manual review.

It would also be great to see more visibility into identity-related attacks in future releases. Overall, nothing critical, but these improvements would make the platform even stronger.

We have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for roughly four years in our production environment.

It is a very stable solution.

It is a scalable solution. Everyone is using this solution in our organization, with almost 2000 users. It's mandatory for us to install this EDR solution on all the inputs.

Customer support has been generally good for us, and most questions are handled properly. The platform is stable, so we don’t need support very often. For normal issues, the response time is fine.

However, for complex cases—especially agent-related problems—we sometimes need remote assistance, and that level of support is not included in the basic subscription. In those situations, the resolution can take longer. Overall, support is helpful but could improve in advanced troubleshooting.

Positive

Yes, we previously used Trend Micro. We switched to SentinelOne because we wanted stronger detection capabilities, faster automated response, and better visibility into advanced threats. SentinelOne’s AI-based approach and single-agent design were important factors for us, along with the ability to automatically isolate and remediate incidents without relying completely on manual action.

The initial setup was straightforward. We use the SaaS model, cloud-based solution, and console on cloud, so it's very straightforward. I rate the setup a 4.8 out of five, and I would give it a five if they added application control.

Yes, we have seen clear ROI after moving to SentinelOne. The biggest saving has been the reduction in manual investigation and remediation time. Since most incidents are handled automatically, our team spends less time reacting and more time on proactive work.

We also avoided several potential ransomware impacts, which in itself protects us from large financial and operational losses. The single agent and tool consolidation also reduced the need for multiple products and maintenance efforts.

Overall, the time saved, lower incident impact, and improved security confidence clearly justified the investment.

Pricing is okay and costs almost the same as Trend Micro. We have a partnership with SentinelOne, and it costs about $30 to $35 per user per year.

We also evaluated Malwarebytes and CrowdStrike before choosing SentinelOne. Malwarebytes was simple to use but it didn’t provide the same level of autonomous response or forensic depth that we needed. CrowdStrike was strong in detection, but overall SentinelOne offered better rollback, a single-agent approach, and more automation.

In the end, SentinelOne gave us a more complete platform for prevention, response, and investigation rather than just detection. The balance of features, automation, and usability was the main reason we selected it.

I rate this solution a ten out of ten. SentinelOne is the next-generation EDR solution. Once it is installed, no action is required from the end user. It's machine learning and AI integrated, and 95% of threats are blocked. It's a great product.
