Sentiment score
7.5
SentinelOne Singularity Complete enhances efficiency and security, reducing response time, costs, and incidents while increasing productivity and savings.

Sentiment score
7.2
SentinelOne's support is praised for efficiency, expertise, and responsiveness, despite occasional slow responses and non-interactive communication.
I felt it was important to raise awareness about this new technique where attackers use legitimate applications to gain remote access and control of computers.
They are thorough and ensure the problem is addressed without pushing responsibilities onto me unnecessarily.
Our team on the security side has contacted Huntress support, and they have been pleased.
They do a great job of figuring out the problem and pointing you to generic documentation or working with you to fine-tune a solution.
We are using the automated email process for support, and they respond within an hour or two hours sometimes.
I think they were responsive, but there was a delay in reaching out to my team on one incident report.
 

Scalability Issues

8.5
Huntress Managed EDR is lauded for its efficient, scalable deployment, supporting diverse companies with seamless cloud-based endpoint management.
Sentiment score
8.1
SentinelOne Singularity Complete enables seamless scalability and integration, supporting global enterprises with effective endpoint protection and management.
I know other techs with thousands deployed, so scalability isn't an issue.
Scaling Huntress is simple; I can manage up to a thousand devices without issue.
I can easily scale from one machine to thousands without any fuss.
It's all auto-scale and auto-categorized, configuring automatically.
The tool's built-in automation for deploying the agents works well for large infrastructures like mine.
My deployment is relatively small, and SentinelOne Singularity Complete works within those constraints.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.4
Huntress Managed EDR is praised for stability and reliability, despite occasional minor issues and compatibility challenges with some OS.
Sentiment score
7.9
SentinelOne Singularity Complete is praised for stability, effective performance, and reliable updates, with occasional third-party software conflicts.
We have not experienced any issues with lagging, crashing, or downtime.
I never experienced issues, but once there was an instance with false positives with their Rio service, which was quickly resolved by customer service.
It barely takes up resources on the computer, and I have had no issues with lagging or crashing.
It has caused problems with interoperability between third-party tools, which could lead to entire servers crashing or specific tools failing.
This indicates room for improvement in stability when interacting with other solutions.
 

Room For Improvement

Huntress Managed EDR needs better report customization, UI, Mac coverage, API functions, automated remediation, and enhanced security features.
SentinelOne Singularity Complete needs console improvements, better integration, clear documentation, efficient updates, and enhanced automated threat responses.
A more transparent way for the support team at Huntress and our IT team to collaborate to make it faster and easier would be beneficial.
Since we support customers in different countries, expanding the language options for their training would be beneficial.
Their EDR is pretty mature in terms of what it does.
The only thing that prevented the attack from succeeding was a free version of Malwarebytes.
Providing a single pane of visibility for the end user would be beneficial.
It's challenging to prevent a user from manipulating their privileges or someone else's of others, and it's difficult to control what users can access at the organizational level.
 

Setup Cost

Huntress Managed EDR offers competitive, flexible pricing per endpoint, delivering good value and performance for both small and large businesses.
SentinelOne Singularity Complete balances higher costs with robust endpoint protection, justifying prices of $5-$8 per endpoint monthly.
The savings from utilizing the included Windows Defender offset the cost of Huntress Managed EDR, making it an affordable solution overall.
It is not too expensive or too cheap. It is just right.
It can get expensive for small to medium businesses if large license quantities are not purchased.
They counted many of the instances and licenses as duplicates despite them only being alive once, which was frustrating.
I did not notice a significant increase in cost after adding SentinelOne.
 

Valuable Features

Huntress Managed EDR offers 24/7 SOC, proactive threat management, seamless Microsoft Defender integration, and personalized support for efficient protection.
SentinelOne Singularity Complete offers robust security, automation, and integration, excelling in threat prevention and minimal disruption across platforms.
What stands out most is their human element: when faced with an unknown threat, real people, not just automated processes, are investigating it, and they're people we trust.
They provide detailed remediation steps, explaining why an issue is a problem and what steps to take.
Previously, I could not modify it unless I had special Microsoft licensing, so it was beneficial to control Windows Defender through a central console to add policies and things like that.
I have an advanced app providing visibility of all my endpoints, which was not the case before.
SentinelOne has a feature to decommission automatically, which has been fantastic.
The setup process is smooth.

Featured Reviews

Anto Baharian - PeerSpot reviewer
Never misses anything and has an attractive price point and a simple interface
One thing they could improve is evolving from an EDR to an MDR, like Blackpoint. This transition would enable automatic remediation of anything that looks dangerous, including within Microsoft 365. For instance, when one of my clients' Microsoft 365 account was breached, Blackpoint identified suspicious activity and disabled the account. It was in Dallas, and we are in California. Blackpoint knew something was wrong there, and they went in and disabled the account. Developing more automated remediation features would elevate them to an MDR level, but I understand that it might affect pricing. They are trying to keep it at a good price point because once they go to MDR, it is probably going to double the price. For now, I find the current features satisfactory, as they continue to add improvements. They have added security awareness training and then log collectors. They are adding pillars as they move along, and I assume they are going to have an option for MDR.
Asim Naeem - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
