We compared SentinelOne Singularity Complete and VMware Carbon Black Endpoint based on our users reviews in five parameters. After reading the collected data, you can find our conclusion below:
Comparison Results: Based on the reviews, SentinelOne Singularity Complete is praised for its easy setup process and user-friendly features, including agent deployment and AI capabilities. In contrast, VMware Carbon Black Endpoint may require more knowledge and experience. Carbon Black's MDR capability stands out among its features. Both products have areas for improvement, with SentinelOne needing enhancements in user-friendliness and stability, and Carbon Black requiring better node management and troubleshooting capabilities. Pricing for SentinelOne is considered reasonable, while Carbon Black is seen as more expensive. Customer support for both products receives mixed reviews.
"he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"It is stable and scalable."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"This is stable and scalable."
"The most valuable features are asset tracking, patching, endpoint tagging, and policy updates."
"The process visualization, automated response, and snapshotting are valuable. The integration and automation possibilities are also valuable."
"I have found the most valuable feature to be the rapid threat detection."
"It is a robust solution. It provides great visibility."
"It uses AI technology so it can find known and unknown threats. It is stable and provides one of the best technical support."
"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."
"SentinelOne is very simple to install and very simple to manage. It's very aggressive, so it does protection well, and it seems to be stopping attacks that other solutions cannot."
"The overall product quality is good."
"It has the best live response feature."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup was straightforward."
"This product has the capability of uploading scripts to the tool and this is a very comprehensive feature."
"The new feature that we're deploying, the new offering from Carbon Black, is MDR, which stands for manage, detect, and response. It's the most valuable feature because Carbon Black will be continuously checking the logs, and they will be advising us on how to improve some of the policies as well as review the logs. If there are any nefarious agents or things happening on the end points, they will know."
"The data analysis is the most valuable because of the whitelist database. It is different than standard IDS solutions."
"Behavioral Monitoring stops known malicious events before they even begin."
"I like the historical features, interface, and integration."
"The whole purpose of the product, like application control, is very good, and also if you need to update some policies, it works well and instantly."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"Detections could be improved."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"SentinelOne should include Ranger Pro out of the box with Singularity Complete."
"I would appreciate it if they would consider providing a comprehensive vulnerability assessment report that goes beyond just application vulnerabilities."
"Something we are looking forward to is the ability of the SentinelOne backend to ingest data from other sources. Now that they are moving to the Singularity data lake, we are looking forward to being able to query data that is not just collected by SentinelOne endpoint agents. We are looking forward to being able to query against all data that we are ingesting into that backend."
"SentinelOne needs to improve its endpoint deployment process."
"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."
"If it had a little bit more granularity in the roles and responsibilities matrix, that would help. There are users that have different components, but I'd be much happier if I could cherry-pick what functions I want to give to which users. That would be a huge benefit."
"The learning curve was a little steep."
"SentinelOne can improve by having better integration with Active Directory."
"This solution could have greater granular control on how certain applications work."
"The tech support communicates, but it's just not with movement."
"The solution needs expanded endpoint query tools."
"The UI interface needs improvement. The management needs further work in future versions."
"The solution needs better overall compatibility with other products."
"What was rolled out to my company are mixed versions of Carbon Black CB Defense, so what I'd like to see in the next release is more synchronization, where it can detect the endpoint that's running an old version and suggest updates."
"It would be nice to have additional forensic tools that you can build into the back end."
"At this point, we're test-bedding several other providers right now to see if there's anything that does equally or better and that comes at a better price point."
