Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

It integrates well with other platforms, is user-friendly, and is stable
SentinelOne Singularity Complete integrates with our other security solutions, correlating data from NDR, ADR, SIEM, and XDR tools. All this information is consolidated within SentinelOne, providing a centralized access point. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us streamline our security operations by consolidating multiple solutions into a single platform. We are currently in the process of acquiring a threat intelligence platform to complete our security stack. We use Ranger to monitor our network and track connected devices. This is crucial because it helps us quickly identify unauthorized machines connected to our infrastructure, including personal devices. We have additional security measures in place, but Ranger provides an extra layer of protection. It also alerts us if the SentinelOne Singularity Complete agent is missing from any new or existing machines, allowing us to take appropriate action. SentinelOne Ranger's agentless and hardware-independent nature is crucial for our environment with 26,000 endpoints, as manual management of such a large number would be extremely challenging. Ranger uses a multi-layered approach to prevent vulnerable devices from being compromised. We employ scanners, network configurations, and a risk scanner to assess devices, endpoints, servers, and cloud infrastructures. Vulnerability reports and timelines for remediation are shared with device owners or custodians. This proactive strategy enables us to address vulnerabilities efficiently and secure our infrastructure. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has significantly enhanced our security posture. While no system is impenetrable, this solution has brought us closer to achieving a high level of protection, ensuring we maintain at least a 90 percent security level. Our team is dedicated to refining alerts and eliminating false positives from our solutions. Additionally, a team is responsible for identifying and excluding alerts from the solution. We can manually expedite this process by reviewing these elements and utilizing our security tools. We have been able to reduce the alert volume by 20 percent. Our 30-member Security Operations Center team has been able to redirect their focus to other tasks due to the time saved after implementing SentinelOne Singularity Complete. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us improve our mean time to detect threats, which we accomplish using the Vigilance service for detection and response. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us decrease our organizational risk. We utilize the Security Scorecard to manage our security posture, which has remained steady at 90 percent.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It secures different entry points into the network."
"CylancePROTECT is a fairly decent antivirus."
"It is a good endpoint solution. It is very easy to manage and detect the threat immediately. It will take the necessary actions."
"The solution runs in the background, and I do not need to care about it."
"The solution is pretty easy to scale."
"On the management side, we liked the way it displays things."
"The most valuable features are script blocking and macros within Word documents for stopping unwanted applications from running in the background."
"I've found the AI engine in CylancePROTECT to be particularly effective for technology and in preventing unknown threats."
"I find the application inventory feature to be extremely useful."
"It has saved us from a couple of ransomware attacks already."
"SentinelOne's managed detection response service Vigilance Respond is convenient for companies like ours with small IT teams. If something happens on the weekend, SentinelOne steps in and resolves the issue. It's a false positive 97% of the time, but at least they're resolved instead of hanging around for us to find on Monday."
"The overall product quality is good."
"The rollback feature is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The best thing is it has a secure shell command that you can use to get into any endpoint and do some jobs."
"Singularity has the same features as other antivirus products, but it provides an added layer of security and vulnerability protection. It's also light on resources. Singularity doesn't use a lot of CPU or memory."
"Offers good protection against ransomware."
 

Cons

"The solution needs better dashboards that are easier to use."
"It should provide more details about the events that they have detected."
"The initial deployment was quite complicated."
"It was not effective. There were a lot of false positives, even when we use Adobe, and everybody uses Adobe, which is not a threat."
"I would like to see a better UI in terms of sifting through more specific data and providing analytics. A little bit more would be nice."
"I would like to see them fix the alerting system so that the endpoint reporting is a bit more streamlined."
"Reporting is an area with shortcomings in CylancePROTECT that needs to be improved."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"Deployment strategy for large organizations that do not use active directory (AD)."
"As a cloud-based product, there is a minimum number of licenses that need to be purchased, which is unfortunate."
"I would like to see a better control panel for the managed service side of it."
"The SentinelOne portal is not user-friendly, which is one of its drawbacks."
"The solution could improve its notifications and communications."
"Periodically we have an application that does not work correctly when SentinelOne is installed, yet performs as expected when SentinelOne is removed."
"The maintenance window can be improved because once it happened that I had multiple laptops, and the maintenance window caused a lot of laptops to get stuck in the portal, blocking access."
"The false positive rate has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We went through a third party initially to do the renewal, but we won't be renewing, we will move on to something else."
"It's not so heavily priced; rather, it's average and decent."
"We would just add more if there are new users, but right now you just need one license for per user."
"CylancePROTECT's pricing is reasonable, at about €18 per user, per year."
"This cost of the license is approximately $5 USD monthly per user."
"Our licensing cost for the solution is around $4,000 for six months. There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"CylancePROTECT is an affordable solution."
"Currently, we have competitive pricing for Cylance, which is affordable enough to consider."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is cheaper than CrowdStrike but more expensive than any traditional anti-virus solution."
"I rate Singularity Complete four out of 10 for affordability. SentinelOne costs more than traditional antivirus solutions, but we get more out of it. It hasn't saved us any money, but it's an EDR solution, so we get a lot of value from it."
"The one I use is $6 a month per device. Some are $4 and there are some that are more than that."
"The price is competitive, if you compare it with other solutions on the market."
"The pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete is competitive."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is reasonably priced."
"We buy the licensing in bulk. From a pricing standpoint, because we buy in bulk, we get very good pricing. Based on its functionality and capabilities, it is well worth the price. I do not think it is at all expensive based on what you get in the solution. We use the complete up to the core. Our pricing is probably a little bit more than somebody who is on the core. In general, it is well worth what you get for the price you pay."
"The price of Singularity Complete compared to some of its competitors is competitive."
