Effective threat predictions, simple to deploy, and light on resources

Malwarebytes's initial setup is simple. It is easy to deploy and configure the policies and the configuration. I deployed Malwarebytes for one customer and I did it in under two days. They had approximately 50 users, it took approximately an hour. The steps I took for the implementation were downloading the Malwarebytes management console from the site, installing it, then running the discovery tool, scanning my network, and checking all of the PCs on my network. It's already pre-configured, you don't need to configure anything. The only configuration that I did on the administration console was some of the exclusion from the scan. This is the only rule that I have created. I rate the initial setup of Malwarebytes a ten out of ten.

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

"I like the solution's ability to detect potentially unwanted programs. For some reason, it seems superior to other solutions, or at least in comparison to McAfee."

"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the agents, user experience, efficiency of the findings, and MDR features."

"The platform is straightforward to install."

"Malwarebytes is a comprehensive solution for keeping endpoints safe and secure from intruders, viruses, malware and so on."

"The product provides notifications for suspicious events. We have several public access points. The product helps to prevent unauthorized entry. Its most valuable features are pre-installation procedures and a cloud console. The console's interface is simple and can be viewed easily to take action. It covers everything in terms of security threats."

"The dashboard actually is good and it is simple."

"Being able to carry out a full scan on your system."

"We have seen a decrease of approximately ninety percent in the number of events."

More Malwarebytes pros

"Whether our endpoints are running on Windows, Mac, Linux, or any flavor of operating systems, and even mobile devices, we can have a central dashboard through which we can do complete user management and policy management. We can have a complete security posture organization-wise, department-wise, or business-wise."

"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne is the EDR functionality. We are protected against threats, such as ransomware."

"Singularity's threat-hunting platform is user-friendly, and I like the built-in remote access feature."

"The solution is extremely stable."

"SentinelOne’s Rollback is its best feature."

"The platform is user-friendly, easy to administer, and aligns well with GDPR requirements, which is crucial for us."

"The Deep Visibility feature is the most useful part of the EDR platform. It gives us good insights into what is actually happening on the endpoints, e.g., when we have malicious or suspicious activity. We came from a legacy type AV previously, so we didn't have that level of visibility or understanding. For simplifying threat-hunting, it is extremely useful, where traditional techniques in threat hunting are quite laborious. We can put in indicators of compromise and it will sweep the environment for them, then they would give us a breakdown of what assets have been seen and where they have been seen, which is more of a forensics overview."

"The XDR capability is quite good."

More SentinelOne Singularity Complete pros

Cons

"It would be better if updates could be downloaded, and deployed, on-premises to avoid low bandwidth causing issues."

"The interface could be improved. Currently, you need to really dig around to find the elements you need."

"The product update capability needs to be improved."

"The product is a little bit more expensive than the other brands."

"I would like to see a little more detail in the log. So, when an event occurs, I'd like to know not just when it happened and on what device, but what activity was taking place on the machine at the time so that we can drill down. If we get a false positive, we have to do a lot of research and go back and forth with our end-users to know why it was a false positive. So, having a little more detail around detections and events would probably be my most asked feature."

"My clients have frequently encountered some tech support scams where when you go to a particular website, it throws up a fake warning to you and states that you need to call this number."

"Every once in a while, it gets clobbered by updates from other places. I don't think this should happen."

"I would like to see integration with other vendors going forward."

More Malwarebytes cons

"It primarily operates on local machines, monitoring processes, and not always providing detailed insights, relying on external information to determine the nature of a file."

"It is difficult to manage users in SentinelOne."

"The reporting needs improvement and I would like to see a more granular level of administrative privileges."

"SentinelOne is making a lot of moves to acquire various companies, but the roadmap isn't clear, and it is still uncertain how the new acquisitions will integrate. For example, SentinelOne recently acquired a mobile security solution, but there is no real integration between the platforms."

"Using the filters takes a little bit of time to get to used to."

"I would like to see the reports from SentinelOne more customizable, as there are very few options."

"Improvement seems necessary, especially with the focus on enhanced support."

"The ability to have more direct purchasing for smaller groups and smaller businesses would be great."

More SentinelOne Singularity Complete cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is per seat, with clients being a little less expensive than servers. If we need more licenses, we can accomplish that within a day. As Malwarebytes adds new features to their product, such as DNS filtering and a patching module, they want to charge us more even though we're a premium user, which isn't ideal."

"Its licensing is annual. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."

"I would say that it's affordable. It costs much less than Sentinel One, CrowdStrike, or anything of that nature. But, at the same time, you are getting what you pay for. So I would say it's one of the best when you're comparing traditional NextGen AVs like Webroot that aren't the best in the bunch."

"It is expensive."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the product's pricing a seven."

"Its cost is around $60 a machine. The cost of the total solution for 250 people is about $8,500 a year. If we add EDR to it, it will bring that cost up to about $15,000. The cost for Carbon Black is about $25,000, which is $10,000 more, but you get all AI functions with it."

"I believe the retail price is between $40 and $50 per copy."

"We expect to pay $1,000 USD a month, depending on the number of users."

More Malwarebytes pricing and cost advice

"You have to look at the kinds of problems you can end up with and the fact that you want security against them, and then SentinelOne is not expensive."

"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."

"The cost of Singularity Complete is similar to our previous solution but it comes with additional options such as Kubernetes integration."

"I did not notice a significant increase in cost after adding SentinelOne."

"While SentinelOne Singularity Complete carries a higher price tag than some endpoint security solutions, customers find its robust features and return on investment justify the cost."

"The solution's pricing is not too bad for what it's offering, like the documentation that comes with it."

"The tool's price is reasonable."

"At this time it is only a trial. After the trial period, I am going to purchase two licenses from SentinelOne."
