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.

We no longer need to hire highly skilled data engineers to create and monitor data pipelines
The things I like about StreamSets are its * overall user interface * efficiency * product features, which are all good. Also, the scheduling within the data engineering pipeline is very much appreciated, and it has a wide range of connectors for connecting to any data sources like SQL Server, AWS, Azure, etc. We have used it with Kafka, Hadoop, and Azure Data Factory Datasets. Connecting to these systems with StreamSets is very easy. You just need to configure the data sources, the paths and their configurations, and you are ready to go. It is very efficient and very easy to use for ETL pipelines. It is a GUI-based interface in which you can easily create or design your own data pipelines with just a few clicks. As for moving data into modern analytics systems, we are using it with Microsoft Power BI, AWS, and some on-premises solutions, and it is very easy to get data from StreamSets into them. No hardcore coding or special technical expertise is required. It is also a no-code platform in which you can configure your data sources and data output for easy configuration of your data pipeline. This is a very important aspect because if a tool requires code development, we need to hire software developers to get the task done. By using StreamSets, it can be done with a few clicks.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We moved from ESET, and we find that the licensing scheme, particularly how the licenses are attributed to clients, is pretty nice compared to what ESET offers."
"SentinelOne offers several valuable features for threat detection and response."
"The visibility feature is crucial for effective detection analysis."
"The deep visibility and the ability to perform security investigations and assess our endpoint security posture are the most valuable features."
"This technology is perfect for us."
"The best part of the agent is that users can't remove or disable it, so endpoints will be safe. I can control it from the portal. I can see when it's updated and I can push updates from the portal. The greatness of SentinelOne is that our end-users don't see anything to do with the agents. Some of them don't even know it's on their laptops. And that's a good thing."
"It provides network and asset visibility for us."
"The best thing is it has a secure shell command that you can use to get into any endpoint and do some jobs."
"It is really easy to set up and the interface is easy to use."
"Also, the intuitive canvas for designing all the streams in the pipeline, along with the simplicity of the entire product are very big pluses for me. The software is very simple and straightforward. That is something that is needed right now."
"StreamSets’ data drift resilience has reduced the time it takes us to fix data drift breakages. For example, in our previous Hadoop scenario, when we were creating the Sqoop-based processes to move data from source to destinations, we were getting the job done. That took approximately an hour to an hour and a half when we did it with Hadoop. However, with the StreamSets, since it works on a data collector-based mechanism, it completes the same process in 15 minutes of time. Therefore, it has saved us around 45 minutes per data pipeline or table that we migrate. Thus, it reduced the data transfer, including the drift part, by 45 minutes."
"What I love the most is that StreamSets is very light. It's a containerized application. It's easy to use with Docker. If you are a large organization, it's very easy to use Kubernetes."
"The most valuable would be the GUI platform that I saw. I first saw it at a special session that StreamSets provided towards the end of the summer. I saw the way you set it up and how you have different processes going on with your data. The design experience seemed to be pretty straightforward to me in terms of how you drag and drop these nodes and connect them with arrows."
"StreamSets Transformer is a good feature because it helps you when you are developing applications and when you don't want to write a lot of code. That is the best feature overall."
"The entire user interface is very simple and the simplicity of creating pipelines is something that I like very much about it. The design experience is very smooth."
"The scheduling within the data engineering pipeline is very much appreciated, and it has a wide range of connectors for connecting to any data sources like SQL Server, AWS, Azure, etc. We have used it with Kafka, Hadoop, and Azure Data Factory Datasets. Connecting to these systems with StreamSets is very easy."
 

Cons

"Managing the false positives creates additional management overhead. The behavioral analysis engine might misinterpret real user behavior as malware. For example, a drafter was cleaning up a Revit folder and deleting 4,000 files. That looks like ransomware. The SentinelOne agent kicked his computer off the network."
"SentinelOne's performance and the accuracy of its incident filtering could be improved."
"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."
"Since SentinelOne Hologram was an Attivo Networks product acquired by Microsoft, I have to install a different agent on endpoints for that product. It would be better if the same SentinelOne agent could be used for both the EDR and deception technology."
"The only thing that prevented the attack from succeeding was a free version of Malwarebytes that was running on the session, which effectively protected against it. The MSP confirmed that SentinelOne failed to detect the threat."
"The documentation provided for implementation is not adequate and has caused us challenges."
"The filtering features of the application management console could be improved."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete offers competitive pricing, but there's always potential for even better value."
"One area for improvement could be the cloud storage server speed, as we have faced some latency issues here and there."
"We've seen a couple of cases where it appears to have a memory leak or a similar problem."
"StreamSet works great for batch processing but we are looking for something that is more real-time. We need latency in numbers below milliseconds."
"Sometimes, it is not clear at first how to set up nodes. A site with an explanation of how each node works would be very helpful."
"Currently, we can only use the query to read data from SAP HANA. What we would like to see, as soon as possible, is the ability to read from multiple tables from SAP HANA. That would be a really good thing that we could use immediately. For example, if you have 100 tables in SQL Server or Oracle, then you could just point it to the schema or the 100 tables and ingestion information. However, you can't do that in SAP HANA since StreamSets currently is lacking in this. They do not have a multi-table feature for SAP HANA. Therefore, a multi-table origin for SAP HANA would be helpful."
"I would like to see it integrate with other kinds of platforms, other than Java. We're going to have a lot of applications using .NET and other languages or frameworks. StreamSets is very helpful for the old Java platform but it's hard to integrate with the other platforms and frameworks."
"Visualization and monitoring need to be improved and refined."
"The design experience is the bane of our existence because their documentation is not the best. Even when they update their software, they don't publish the best information on how to update and change your pipeline configuration to make it conform to current best practices. We don't pay for the added support. We use the "freeware version." The user community, as well as the documentation they provide for the standard user, are difficult, at best."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While the cost of SentinelOne Singularity Complete might seem high at first glance, it's important to consider the value it offers."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is expensive compared to Microsoft but not Sophos."
"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."
"The cost of endpoint protection is fairly reasonable."
"The pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete is competitive."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is cheaper than CrowdStrike but more expensive than any traditional anti-virus solution."
"The pricing was very similar in terms of its competitors, but I believe SentinelOne's capability and willingness to attract new business allowed us to save some extra money."
"The pricing model is simple."
"The pricing is affordable for any business."
"The pricing is too fixed. It should be based on how much data you need to process. Some businesses are not so big that they process a lot of data."
"The licensing is expensive, and there are other costs involved too. I know from using the software that you have to buy new features whenever there are new updates, which I don't really like. But initially, it was very good."
"I believe the pricing is not equitable."
"We use the free version. It's great for a public, free release. Our stance is that the paid support model is too expensive to get into. They should honestly reevaluate that."
"StreamSets is an expensive solution."
"It has a CPU core-based licensing, which works for us and is quite good."
"StreamSets Data Collector is open source. One can utilize the StreamSets Data Collector, but the Control Hub is the main repository where all the jobs are present. Everything happens in Control Hub."
