Featured Reviews

Roftiel Constantine - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides proactive threat remediation, reduces alert volume, and enhances incident response capabilities
During our pre-purchase evaluation of SentinelOne's EDR capabilities three years ago, we were consistently impressed by the positive relationships customers reported having with SentinelOne's engineers, sales teams, and customer success managers. These strong relationships, evident in the customers' unsolicited feedback, highlighted the "soft skills" and intangible qualities that SentinelOne possessed. This positive customer experience has been mirrored in our own interactions with them. Their responsiveness to our needs, particularly when addressing a couple of challenges we faced, has been excellent. They proactively scheduled weekly meetings to demonstrate their commitment to resolving our issues, a customer-centric approach I admire. SentinelOne's dedication to customer service, including their rapid technology updates and responsiveness to our suggestions, has been crucial to our success in protecting our organization. Their ability to quickly incorporate our needs into new releases is truly impressive and sets them apart. Overall, I highly recommend SentinelOne based on our positive interactions across all levels of their organization.

Enhancing administration security with critical feature improvements needed
My primary use case is to make a training about Active Directory security. In my experience, I work with Bastion. I emphasize the importance of having a good knowledge of Bastion to avoid vulnerabilities It helps by providing some security features for administration, although it's crucial to be…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"All the features within the XDR are valuable as a whole for our organization."
"The biggest value for us is getting a much better picture of what our risks are."
"The effectiveness of their AI and behavioral analysis helps mitigate zero-day activities and detect new threats."
"Their ability to quickly incorporate our needs into new releases is truly impressive and sets them apart."
"The protection provided by SentinelOne Singularity Identity is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne Singularity Identity is its ability to detect based on behavior rather than just static signatures."
"They have different levels of support. We have the highest level where they are constantly checking all the endpoints. If at any certain point, they identify that a computer has been triggered by a virus, a link, or something else, they would automatically tell us that within 15 seconds. If they notice something, they automatically send us an email saying that they noticed something in the computer, and they are going to block it."
"I like the detection and protection features. We don't need to do anything, and it will alert us when the mitigation is not successful. We only need to target those endpoints. Otherwise, we don't have to do anything about that."
"The interface is very simple. It doesn't need any plug-ins, just browsers that are installed at the beginning."
"I like that it's Linux-based, and you don't need to have separate implementations, extra database licenses, or enterprise licenses. I think because it's Linux-based, it's more seamless than Windows. I also like the access manager, which I think is a super tool. Everything is browser-based, and you don't need a VPN. So, that's a great thing."
"WALLIX Bastion's most valuable feature is the Access Manager because you can use it and access the data center without any client VPN."
"Its video recording capabilities have definitely been key for us."
"The solution's technical support team is helpful."
"Bastion provides a kind of isolation between the administration laptop and the server you want to administer."
"We use WALLIX Bastion to provide access and to monitor sessions."
"The support is great. They offer 24/7 support, but the specific level of support depends on your subscription. There's a weekday-only option, and a 24/7 option that covers all days of the week. They also have offices in different regions, including West Africa, so people there can easily get support. There's no need to worry about getting assistance."
 

Cons

"I don't like SentinelOne's reporting tools. Their reports seem fine theoretically, but the issue is the sample size. For example, it will report that there were four incidents, and that equals 25 percent fewer incidents compared to the previous months. It would be a great improvement if I could expand the range to see reports for the last six months, but it's always one month. That would be an easy thing for them to resolve."
"The policies could be more precise, and Singularity should use more templates like alternative solutions have. Endpoint management is poor. We cannot manage individual endpoints and must rely on policies, exclusions, or block lists to apply settings to a group instead of the individual agent. If I have to make settings for one computer, I need to create a group, apply the configuration, and move the agent there. It's challenging to manage endpoints that way."
"Support could be faster. They need a faster response time."
"The solution's query resolution time could be reduced further, and a faster resolution could be provided."
"To enhance our already strong partnership with SentinelOne, we should focus on improving collaboration."
"To improve SentinelOne, I would suggest adding a network detection and response capability."
"The primary reason for this discontent is that we frequently encounter performance issues with our servers."
"Our company has different locations, such as Sunbury, Oklahoma, and Alabama. I have my devices by location, and I have not found a way to choose all the endpoints and then push the update automatically. I have been doing it one by one."
"It would be better if I could manage multiple accounts in one place, like CyberArk. With WALLIX, you can only manage one account, and you are given a separate category. You have to click on each connection to do anything. For example, CyberArk might give three options for one connection if you want to have an interactive user-level experience. But with WALLIX, you have to click three times to get that access. Also, the biggest disadvantage of WALLIX is the reporting. I feel like it's very weak in reporting when compared to the other solutions. As a solution, they're good and stable. But they need to make their reports neater and better. Right now, we're going to the console and then pressing buttons every single time."
"For me, the main issue has to do with the system performance itself."
"The main problem of Bastion, CyberArk, and WALLIX is that they have the same interface for both administration and users, which is not a good idea from a security perspective."
"The performance of WALLIX Bastion's password manager is very low."
"Based on my experience as a sales tech person, one area of improvement could be a more unified licensing model."
"WALLIX Bastion is GUI-driven, but it sometimes needs some management."
"The password management needs improvement. Management of Access Manager should be improved as well."
"There could be more automation features for the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is affordable."
"Ideally, I would like SentinelOne to lower their prices a little bit."
"The pricing is a bit high."
"The price of SentinelOne Singularity Identity is relatively high, but it offers numerous features and capabilities that make it well worth the investment."
"SentinelOne Singularity Identity's pricing is cheaper than CrowdStrike and is really good."
"Compared to competitors, it's well-priced for the quality offered, and I don't see anyone surpassing them in that regard."
"There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing charges associated with the product...I think the prices associated with the product are okay and it is not too expensive."
"The cost of SentinelOne Singularity Identity is better than CrowdStrike."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
"The solution's pricing is comparable to that of other products."
"Some extra price needs to be paid for license."
