Mahender Nirwan - PeerSpot reviewer
Efficiently blocks unwanted websites from laptops but also blocks information from the websites
One problem I'm facing with K7 is that if it blacklists a website that I need, I have to ask my admin guy to unblock it. When we whitelist it, I have to manually update my policies on my laptop for the change to take effect. I want it to reflect automatically when something is done from the admin side. I shouldn't have to update K7 case and policy settings manually.

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 has its own model to decide whether a website is trusted or not."
"One of the features that convinced us to adopt SentinelOne was that the solution can recognize and respond to attacks with or without a network connection. That is very important."
"The most valuable feature is the quick response to attacks."
"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 most valuable feature of this solution is the user-friendly interface."
"The best thing SentinelOne has done for us is that it gives us insight into the endpoints. We never had insight into lateral movement threats before. Once a threat known as Qbot gets on the network, it actually spreads throughout sub-networks quickly. SentinelOne has detected that and saved our bacon. We were able to get in there and stop the threat, lock it down, and prevent it from actually spreading through. It would have been 50 or 60 computers. It had spread through in a few minutes. We have a lot of HIPAA data and FERPA data that we need to keep protected."
"It is great for security monitoring and blocking when needed."
"In the past, we were not able to identify a few viruses, but now we are able to identify them because of the machine learning feature."
"The visibility component is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"But blocking websites also means blocking information."
"SentinelOne's customer service has room for improvement."
"Although the SentinelOne firewall seems to offer potential benefits, in reality, it hasn't proven to be very helpful."
"The reporting needs improvement and I would like to see a more granular level of administrative privileges."
"The endpoint firewall capability is fairly primitive and basic."
"DLP support would be a good addition."
"Native integration with the mobile console is an area that can be improved."
"They have tiers of support like most companies do. For the first three years, we had the top tier of their support and we would get a response from a technician quickly. We didn't have many things we had to ask of them. They would be very quick. We are now one tier down from that. The SLA for us is no longer within an hour or two. It's within half a day or something like that. As far as if I do ask a question of them, it is a little slower than what it used to be. I understand that we're at a lesser tier, but sometimes it feels like that could be a little better. I have to preface that by specifying that we're no longer paying for their top tier support."
"We need to analyze the threats and make decisions based on that, so the analytics could be better at analyzing exactly where the threats are coming from."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Our licensing fees are about $5 USD per endpoint, per month."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete meets all enterprise requirements and is priced accordingly."
"SentinelOne can cost approximately $70 per device."
"SentinelOne was half the price of CrowdStrike."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is fairly priced."
"After negotiations, the pricing was found to be fair."
"Pricing seemed reasonable at first. However, the way SentinelOne handles its licensing did not work for our environments and led to secondary discussions around cost. They counted many of the instances and licenses as duplicates despite them only being alive once, which was frustrating."
"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."
