7.4
Cortex Cloud provides effective automation, enhances security, reduces costs, and optimizes resources, offering significant value despite its cost.
Sentiment score
5.8
Many respondents lacked ROI data for Skyhigh Security but noted positive experiences and general satisfaction with its benefits.
The detailed information PingSafe gives about how to fix vulnerabilities reduces the time spent on remediation by about 70 to 80 percent.
After implementing SentinelOne, it takes about five to seven minutes.
Our ability to get in and review our vulnerability stance, whether daily, monthly, weekly, or whatever it might be, has drastically improved over our prior provider.
It eliminates the need for additional hardware, making it a financially and technically sound investment.
It helped reduce risks and sped up threat detection.
From a security standpoint, we have significantly enhanced our client's security posture by implementing Prisma Cloud.
 

Customer Service

7.6
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides efficient customer service, rated highly for prompt and effective support across various channels.
Sentiment score
7.1
Cortex Cloud provides prompt technical support, highly rated despite occasional delays, with integration offering added benefits.
Sentiment score
7.7
Skyhigh Security's customer service is praised for responsiveness, while technical support has mixed reviews due to inconsistencies and language barriers.
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.
Whenever I have issues with the solution, I will get an immediate response from the product team and they will try to close the issue as soon as possible.
When you send them a message, you get a response in a minute or two.
They can respond with technical documentation or pass on the case to the next level because it requires the development of a new feature or changing a feature due to a bug.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
8.1
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is highly scalable, seamlessly integrating and auto-scaling in diverse environments with minimal infrastructure concerns.
Sentiment score
7.8
Cortex Cloud ensures scalable integrations in cloud environments, praised for adaptability despite some module limitations and licensing constraints.
Sentiment score
6.8
Skyhigh Security efficiently manages scalability for diverse company sizes, with minor challenges but generally flexible and effective.
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.
It's very scalable and very easy to use.
It's the type of tool that is constantly improving, and its scalability suits our environment well.
If we want to scale, we only need to purchase another license.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.3
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is praised for reliability, stability, seamless AWS integration, with minimal bugs and rare downtime.
Sentiment score
8.0
Cortex Cloud offers strong stability and reliability, excelling in handling enterprise needs with minimal disruptions and swift incident resolution.
Sentiment score
7.6
Skyhigh Security is praised for its stability, speed, and reliability, with quick resolutions to occasional minor issues.
In my experience, there has been 100 percent uptime.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud is incredibly reliable.
The cloud console is very resilient.
I cannot recall any downtime with the solution.
I would rate it a ten out of ten for stability.
I haven't seen any outages with Prisma Cloud.
 

Room For Improvement

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud should enhance search, reduce costs, optimize performance, integrate better, improve support, and lower false positives.
Cortex Cloud needs better documentation, user interface, API integration, automation, and support for diverse cloud environments with seamless third-party integration.
Skyhigh Security faces slow performance, poor UI, limited integrations, scalability concerns, and compatibility issues, needing better training and support.
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.
It is a SaaS solution, but some of my clients have a local regulatory requirement, and they want to install it locally on their premises.
From a developer's perspective, especially for organizations like banks developing their applications, ensuring API security before deploying them to the cloud is crucial.
Prisma Cloud is an excellent tool.
The solution has room for improvement in its DDoS protection.
 

Setup Cost

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers competitive pricing with flexible models, ideal for enterprises but potentially costly for smaller businesses.
Cortex Cloud offers premium security features with complex licensing; valued for integration but perceived as expensive compared to competitors.
Skyhigh Security pricing is high, especially for Salesforce API, but offers valuable features and includes support in fees.
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.
A strategy to optimize costs will save you money.
The licensing model for data security should be compared to the native security offered by AWS and Azure.
Prisma Cloud is remarkably expensive.
 

Valuable Features

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers user-friendly, AI-driven threat detection and remediation, enhancing productivity and security efficiency.
Cortex Cloud excels in workload security with robust identity creation, AWS integration, and multi-cloud support for comprehensive protection.
Skyhigh Security excels in cloud risk detection, DLP integration, and scalability with strong security features and user-friendly interface.
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.
Prisma offers visibility to developers and high-level leadership because the dashboard is excellent and the alerts are comprehensive.
Its ease of integration is valuable because we need to get the solution out of the door quickly, so speed and ease matter.
Security posture management is the most valuable feature.
The cloud security features are the most valuable.

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.
Santiago Gomez - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved the organization's PCI compliance with data loss prevention
I use the solution on a Macintosh computer and it has issues and does not work when I try to log in from the Safari Browser, but it works fine when I log in from the Google Chrome browser. The console has issues when the login is done through a Safari Browser. The console has to be more competitive and the compatibility of the browser needs to be better. I want to know about Skyhigh's competitiveness with other brands and about the vulnerability assessment and micro segmentations. I know Skyhigh has other products, but right now, I am studying what this new product is about. They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support.
