Executive Summary

Review summaries and opinions

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

Customer Service

Sentiment score
8.9
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers excellent customer service with quick responses, though some users report variable support quality.
No sentiment score available
Sentiment score
6.7
Prisma Cloud support is generally praised for responsiveness and knowledge, but experiences vary, suggesting room for improvement in consistency.
When we send an email, they respond quickly and proactively provide solutions.
They took direct responsibility for the system and could solve queries quickly.
Having a reliable team ready and willing to assist with any issues is essential.
The presales team was very proactive and helped us in every aspect we needed to resolve our queries during implementation and they provided knowledge to our team internally.
They have remained engaged to drive resolution of issues that we have found.
When we raised an issue to high priority, they answered faster.
 

Room For Improvement

Sentiment score
6.2
Users seek enhanced SentinelOne features, including search, integration, reporting, UI navigation, cost, documentation, and deployment efficiency.
No sentiment score available
Sentiment score
4.7
Prisma Cloud needs enhancements in documentation, UI, integration, pricing, and automation to improve usability and competitiveness.
If I had to ask for anything to make it easier, it would be signed images that are GPG signed and a public repository where we can get the bits from.
If they can merge Kubernetes Security with other modules related to Kubernetes, that would help us to get more modules in the current subscription.
As organizations move to the cloud, a cloud posture management tool that offers complete cloud visibility becomes crucial for maintaining compliance.
API security is an area that is definitely growing, because almost every web application has tons of APIs connecting to other web applications with tons of APIs.
It is scanning everything rather than giving us the ability to be real granular in choosing which agents can scan which repositories.
Their support needs to be improved. It is by far one of the worst support that I have seen.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
9.1
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security excels in scalable, seamless endpoint integration and deployment, with robust adaptability and auto-scaling features.
No sentiment score available
Sentiment score
7.8
Prisma Cloud offers efficient scalability, seamless multi-cloud integration, and flexible scaling for diverse, complex infrastructures, despite rare limitations.
As soon as we need to add somebody, we just add them to NinjaOne, and then we have a script set up where it automatically deploys and adds them to whichever group we need.
I would rate it a 10 out of 10 for scalability.
Scalability is no longer a concern because Cloud Native Security is a fully cloud-based resource.
How flexible is the tool as far as working with different cloud environments goes? And it is perfectly fine in that regard.
It's very scalable and very easy to use.
Aporeto is now available in AWS where it efficiently deploys, manages, and secures applications at scale on various platforms including Kubernetes, Docker, Linux, and Mesos, among others.
 

Setup Cost

Sentiment score
7.8
SentinelOne Singularity offers competitive and flexible pricing with discounts, modular options, and savings compared to competitors like Sophos.
No sentiment score available
Sentiment score
7.2
Prisma Cloud's pricing is seen as economical by some and high by others due to complex licensing.
With very little negotiation involved, we just let them know what we could pay and they were willing to meet us at slightly above what we paid with Sophos, which was still very fair for what we were looking at.
The price was very, very important to us, and it came down to the price when we were doing our evaluations WatchGuard and SentinelOne.
Covering our 50,000 endpoints would have nearly bankrupted most security programs, even well-funded ones like ours.
There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees for Prisma Cloud.
Does it do what we need it to do? Does it work with the things that we want it to work with? That is the important part for us.
They gave us some good discounts right at the end of the year based on the value that it brings, visibility, and the ability to build in cloud, compliance, and security within one dashboard.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.4
SentinelOne Singularity is reliable, stable, and integrates well with AWS, despite minor agent issues and interface concerns.
No sentiment score available
Sentiment score
7.1
Prisma Cloud is stable and reliable, with minimal downtime and high user satisfaction scores ranging from 7 to 10.
In my experience, there has been 100 percent uptime.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud is incredibly reliable.
The cloud console is very resilient.
The ability to log in and get near real-time data on our cloud environment is very good.
A pre-announcement or pre-testing of the alerts would be a better way for them to do this, instead of creating 50 or 100-plus alerts.
I cannot recall any downtime with the solution.
 

Valuable Features

Sentiment score
8.7
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security delivers automated threat management, seamless integration, and comprehensive visibility, enhancing productivity and security efficiency.
No sentiment score available
Sentiment score
8.2
Prisma Cloud offers automated security, compliance, and vulnerability management with multi-cloud integration, enhancing visibility and control for users.
The real-time detection and response capabilities of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud impressive because it is a platform that uses artificial intelligence to determine what is normal and what is abnormal and can lock down any virus it may encounter.
We were shown how ransomware can be immediately stopped in real-time. That was huge.
Our previous product took a lot of man hours to manage. Once we got Singularity Cloud Workload Security, it freed up our time to work on other tasks.
Aporeto is designed to combine metadata from the orchestration layer, the container, the operating system, and the AWS instance identity document.
The most valuable feature is that the rule set is managed and that it can be run on a regularly scheduled basis.
The Inventory functionality, enabling us to identify all of the resources deployed into a single account in either AWS or Azure, or into Prisma Cloud as a whole, has been really useful for us.

Featured Reviews

Andrew W - PeerSpot reviewer
Tells us about vulnerabilities as well as their impact and helps to focus on real issues
Looking at all the different pieces, it has got everything we need. Some of the pieces we do not even use. For example, we do not have Kubernetes Security. We are not running any K8 clusters, so it is good for us. Overall, we find the solution to be fantastic. There can be additional education components. This may not be truly fair to them because of what the product is going for, but it would be great to see additional education for compliance. It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background.

Mohammad Qaw - PeerSpot reviewer
It gives you one console to see all of your assets, review their configurations, and build your processes
Most customers use Prisma Cloud for visibility and compliance. Prisma has so many features, but many organizations do not use them. They primarily use the visibility part to connect all their cloud accounts and hosts for visibility to see if they are missing any security controls or if they have any misconfigurations. You can connect it to cloud environments such as Azure, AWS, Oracle Cloud, Alibaba, etc., or to an on-prem data center. Prisma Cloud gives you so many options to automate processes related to your daily operations. When it comes to cybersecurity, you can automate things with their existing APIs. They also have out-of-the-box integrations with many solutions. I have not seen any limitations. Everything is customizable. You can do whatever you want, defining the reporting and custom use cases. They recently updated the UI, so it's much better than before.
