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.

Sentiment score
6.7
Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange's customer service is praised for responsiveness, but suffers from delayed responses and knowledge gaps affecting satisfaction.
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.
Sometimes, support takes time since the solution has some bugs that need fixing.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
8.1
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers robust scalability and seamless integration, praised for efficient handling of diverse workload demands.
Sentiment score
8.0
Lacework FortiCNAPP is praised for scalability, adaptable across various environments, with minor licensing challenges noted by users.
Sentiment score
7.9
Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange Platform is highly scalable and adaptable, praised for performance and suitability in varied organizational needs.
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.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.2
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is highly rated for stability, integrates seamlessly with AWS, and outperforms competitors.
Sentiment score
7.4
Lacework FortiCNAPP demonstrates stable performance with minimal issues and rare non-disruptive delays, fostering user confidence in its capabilities.
Sentiment score
7.9
Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange is stable and reliable with minor latency issues, resolved initial concerns, and strong threat monitoring.
In my experience, there has been 100 percent uptime.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud is incredibly reliable.
The cloud console is very resilient.
 

Room For Improvement

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security requires enhancements in cost, functionality, integration, UI, alerting, and user support systems.
Lacework FortiCNAPP enhancements focus on visibility, IAM controls, usability, integration, and granularity in alert management and reporting.
Users report performance, configuration, support, and integration issues with Zscaler, highlighting speed, cost, and interface improvements.
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.
They might be able to identify if something is missing with Zscaler.
 

Setup Cost

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is seen as cost-effective and flexible, offering competitive pricing with value compared to competitors.
Lacework FortiCNAPP offers stable, competitive pricing, starting at $80,000 annually, with a unique, refined licensing structure.
Zscaler offers flexible pricing with discounts for larger enterprises, though additional licenses and gateway fees can increase costs.
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.
 

Valuable Features

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides a unified dashboard with AI-driven threat detection and automated threat response for efficient management.
Lacework FortiCNAPP excels with ease of use, machine learning anomaly detection, compliance reports, and seamless multi-cloud security integration.
Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange excels in security, scalability, and usability, offering seamless integration and advanced cloud capabilities for organizations.
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.
The solution is cloud-based with the latest inspection engines, which I find to be amazing.

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.
Carlos Vitrano - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides quick visibility and significantly reduces alerts
Its integrations with third-party SIEMs can be better. That is one of the things that we discussed with them. We have integrations, for instance, with Splunk. The data that we are receiving in Splunk is huge, and it is valid because Lacework has a bunch of data that they can provide to you. However, to be able to import the data and create alerts, we needed to do some work, so integration is one of the things that they can improve. For container security, how they scan images and how they provide results is something that they need to continue improving in terms of visibility. We already have visibility to several artifacts, but they can take that to the next level and see what else they can do. There can be better integrations with CI/CD pipelines. There can be improvements in terms of how we can take action or how we can report from the number of inventories they are providing to us.
Sumit Bhanwala - PeerSpot reviewer
Cloud-based platform simplifies device and data center management
I find it to be good. The solution is cloud-based with the latest inspection engines, which I find to be amazing. We are less dependent on data centers and device management, which reduces our efforts significantly. It improves our device management, data center management, and updating devices. We need fewer engineers for this management, and it reduces time and efforts for data center management, device upgrades, and IT support.
