Ivan Burke - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides effective incident response and investigation features
We also use Palo Alto's XDR, SentinelOne, Trend Micro, and quite a few others. SentinelOne is nice because you have a centralized dashboard. You just have a single instance and can manage all your clients from one central dashboard, which Cybereason currently lacks. It hinders our use case because we have to redeploy our rules. However, SentinelOne's search feature is slightly more limited than Cybereason's. SentinelOne's search feature is very restrictive, and they have a certain way you have to do it. If you don't follow that way, you're kind of stuck. The deployability is the same, and we have not had scalability issues. We don't work with a larger client. Our largest deployment was about 3,000 endpoints. Cybereason's tech support or the support engineer tends to be slightly better than SentinelOne's because there is no direct contact for support in our region. We usually have to reach out to either the European or the American branches for assistance. There's a bit of a time delay or something that happens. Those are the only major differences.
Ch342 - PeerSpot reviewer
Continuously improving and comes with automated response and SIEM/SOC
This is the third company I've worked with, and I've brought them in as a provider. For me, it's as good as it gets. Nobody likes to talk about tens, but they have a better record of detection than CrowdStrike, and they didn't shut down the world like CrowdStrike. If you really dig down into it, who are the founders of the companies? On the one hand, you have a guy who used to be a consultant, I believe, and we know they're full of it. On the other hand, you got a guy who hacked into an Israeli bank, I think, when he was about 15 years old. They eventually hired him, and now this is his third startup. So, when you look at it that way, there's no comparison.
