Easy to setup, stable and good security use cases
I primarily use this solution for security.  I appreciate the good control it offers, which simplifies management. So, I feel confident using this solution. We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system. I have been using Kaspersky for eight years. I use the latest version.  I…

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

"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is a very powerful tool for us. We use a lot of third-party software that integrates well with the solution."
"Endpoint Security is efficient and easy to use. It doesn't slow the performance of your personal computer."
"Especially the firewalling, I found useful, as you can control the applications and services on a granular level to tell them where they have access to or not."
"The tool's interface is good."
"I have found the most useful features to be protected against viruses, mail threats, encryption of the devices, and MDM. There are a lot of features."
"I like that Kaspersky isn't heavy."
"We're more familiar with Kaspersky's interface, and we find it more user-friendly. It also has more features than others, like with BitDefender and Mirco. The price is better, too."
"Ability to specify the level of protection on devices,"
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete stands out for its threat-hunting abilities and the agility of its agents in detecting malicious content across our gateways and endpoints."
"It delivers the type of security which we were hoping for, since we have a lot of different endpoint users utilizing different types of software. We have people who only use Office software, like email, Word, and PDFs. Then, we have people who use some applications that other people wrote. We also write applications in-house using people who develop software. Therefore, we have some machines using very high-end developer software for mechanical development, electronic development, and software development. Those users are used to managing their PC on their own. The centralize platform allows us to differentiate between those three groups of people. We have overall control and can oversee the security levels at all the endpoints. They have not yet been blocked in any way when performing the functions"
"Its capacity to prevent new threats."
"It is great for security monitoring and blocking when needed."
"The terminating or killing remediation process that they use is top-notch. Pretty much anything that is even remotely malicious gets blocked by it within seconds. That is important for us. We have thousands of endpoints with tens of thousands of users. It is hard to do good security for that many people without some kind of automated detection and response. That is what SentinelOne does for us. It helps us automate that process."
"We have a preference for their receptor. It's good at finding many EFC files. EFC files could have a virus."
"The threat detection and prevention capabilities are valuable, providing development programming support that enables us to perform fair investigations."
"The most valuable aspect of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is the protection it provides."
 

Cons

"This solution needs improvement in the reporting section. Reporting in Kaspersky Endpoint is good but it's not that great. The platform needs to centralize reporting control."
"It would be preferable if the product were more proactive and more modern in its approach to security and protection."
"The solution could provide more integration."
"They're restricted to endpoint protection for now, I'd like to see some additional products."
"The installation is technical. You need to be certified."
"If someone has the older version of the solution, and wants to install a newer version, they must remove all of the previous applications. Otherwise, there will be issues with the solution."
"They should continue to put more security measures in place in order to make it more robust."
"There are many improvements needed, such as faster responses, faster notification, and immediate reports."
"I would like SentinelOne to add a threat-hunting report and more UEBA features. They could add more SIEM functionality. It would be nice to have the ability to easily drag all the logs from the agents, so there's no need for multiple agents installed on the endpoint."
"I would like to improve the reports because they are not so customizable and we would like more info from them."
"I'd like to see us be able to take action on one platform for items such as security variation, security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR)."
"While SentinelOne Singularity Complete effectively visualizes security data across our solutions, requiring extensive manual effort for analysis limits its effectiveness. I would therefore rate it a seven out of ten."
"One disadvantage of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is that the agent doesn't auto-update, and my company found it more complicated than usual to get the agent updated and keep it updated."
"They can just continue adding more integrations with these big brands and software security products."
"We did use the Ranger functionality. However, there was some scanning going on and it caused a lot of noise, so we had to disable it."
"I would like to see category-based web filtering."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an annual license required to use Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business."
"It would be beneficial if the price could be reduced, and improved management of the license allocation for adding additional Endpoint users would be advantageous."
"I don't remember exactly what the licenses cost, but it's not too expensive. It's affordable, especially when you are dealing with on-prem. However, I don't know about the new prices because we are in the process of buying support."
"We have an annual license and there is a fee per device used. The price is fair compared to the latest EDR solution."
"We have a yearly license, and the pricing is fine."
"The price of this solution is affordable and there is only a standard license required."
"I received a very good deal with Kaspersky."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"The one I use is $6 a month per device. Some are $4 and there are some that are more than that."
"The price of Singularity Complete compared to some of its competitors is competitive."
"Pricing is a bit of a pain point. That's where we have not been able to convince all of our customers to use SentinelOne. The pricing is still on the higher side. It's almost double the price, if not more, of a normal antivirus, such as NOD32, Kaspersky, or Symantec."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is expensive, but we must be willing to pay for it if we want a high level of protection."
"It is very affordable and easy to license, and it allows us to onboard new analysts quickly, with a turnaround time of one day at most."
"The pricing of the solution seems reasonable, we got a discount but it still seems reasonable. The licensing cost is $3 to $4 per endpoint and can be paid monthly or yearly, with the price changing according to commitment."
"I believe the retail pricing, or MSRP, is a bit high."
"The per-seat cost is low, but you have to commit to a certain number of licenses for a year."
