Mature, good integrations, and super helpful support
Pros and Cons
  • "The Microsoft integrations are most valuable right now."
  • "They can just continue adding more integrations with these big brands and software security products."

What is our primary use case?

We have been growing, but we are still a pretty small team. We have integrated it with our other software, and we are getting logs out of it. We go into threat hunting and do a deep watch. We go in there, see those logs, and make more sense of things. It has been a real help.

In terms of its deployment model, we have private companies. It is mostly on-prem, but each plant is a little bit different. Anything and everything that touches our corporate environment gets it.

How has it helped my organization?

For the most part, it gives us time to react by getting things off the network and getting that account locked down for a minute. We can let a member of our team take a look at it and move on from there instead of letting something fly under the radar and letting the incident take place or continue to happen. We can put the spotlight on the incident, make someone take a look at it, and then we can get going.

The integrations I have been working with work great. They do exactly as advertised, and they have been helping me with my threat hunting and seeing what is out there. There are always things lurking in the weeds that you just do not know about, so being able to have that correlation and more insights is always helpful.

Singularity Complete has helped free up our staff for other projects and tasks. It is a small team. I am more of a one-man SOC. A lot of the incidents either come through me or someone else on the team if I am not there for vigilance, so being able to dive down and get an issue resolved quickly is helpful. I can then go back to another incident. Usually, they come in batches, so being able to go to the next one or go back to working on a major project has helped a great bit.

Singularity Complete has not helped to reduce alerts. To my knowledge, it stayed about the same. We have fewer false positives, but there are some other ones that I would rather look into. They are more on the identity side. Now that we have Singularity Identity, I am intrigued by what we will see there in terms of weird logins and other things. Now that we have the integration set up, I will get some alerts from there to go track down.

Singularity Complete has helped reduce our organizational risk. When you get these new tools, you see everything that is wrong, and then you are like, "Oh, man," but at least we are seeing them and fixing them. In that sense, it has helped to reduce risks. I do not have the metrics, but we have been able to tackle some vulnerabilities and issues that have been big known ones.

Singularity Complete would help our organization save on its costs if we were not trying to expand so much. We are into manufacturing, and we grow a lot by mergers and acquisitions, so anywhere we can get security funding is a great point. It has helped us identify some things that we can do without. We can either reduce or eliminate those other tools and cascade down, so overall, it has reduced costs.

What is most valuable?

The Microsoft integrations are most valuable right now. One that I still have in the testing is putting user accounts into the high risk and letting our policies on that take place, and then have SentinelOne put it into network isolation as well until an incident is resolved.

What needs improvement?

There could be more integrations with more software. We have been looking at Palos and getting those put into the data lake. If there was a native integration for that, that would help a lot. They can just continue adding more integrations with these big brands and software security products.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been with the company for two years, and it has been there since the time I have been there, so I can only say two years at most.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate it a ten out of ten in terms of stability. It is great in terms of stability and agents working as long as you do your due diligence and you do not leave it there to run just like every other product. If you leave it there with no attendance, it is going to do what it does, but if you are in there, doing your due diligence and making sure things are set, it is great. Auto updates are something I know that was implemented. That has been super helpful, so if you are doing what you need to do, it is a ten out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I would rate it a ten out of ten in terms of scalability, especially because we have Ranger deployed. If we need to or if we have a merger, we can get them to put SentinelOne on a couple of devices for us and give us creds so that we can deploy to the rest from there in case they cannot get us in the SCCM or whatever else they are using.

How are customer service and support?

Their support is great. Keith Fields and Mitch Milligan are always there. They have been super helpful. I knew Keith before Mitch was even part of our account. I have been working with Keith for a little bit, and he has been super insightful on different things that I did not know the tool could do or quicker ways to do things. Mitch has also been super helpful in getting us set up. 

We just bought Singularity Identity, and Keith, Mitch, and Paul have been there to give us those meetings on what we need. They really understand what our business is, and they look into our console to help us out at times as well. It has been great. I would rate their support a ten out of ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

It was already in place when I joined the organization. We run Defender as well. It is like a dual-stack. We have E5 for other reasons, and we use it because it is already there, but our team has gone for SentinelOne. We have had other people, especially the research teams, who want to use their own agent, but we are so comfortable with SentinelOne's abilities and what we have set up to keep us secure that we have looked away from those other SIEMs who want their agent. We have looked away from other software in the realm of MDR that may not work with SentinelOne. It is a staple piece for us that would be a hard buy to remove.

What other advice do I have?

It works great. One thing I wish I had done more in college is hands-on with EDR agents. I went to Purdue for the cybersecurity network engineering major. They had classes and labs for forensics, but one thing we did not get too much hands-on was EDR. I believe they lived in the world of Microsoft for their operations there. Since I have been working here, Singularity Complete has been a great product. We are expanding. We have gone into these other modules and platforms, and we have always had a great experience.

It is a mature solution. It has been here longer than ten years. I graduated from college in 2021 and from high school in 2017. It has been around longer than I have known cyber practices. It is a good one. Always do your research and compare, but it is definitely a top one. I believe it is up there on the Gartner's Quadrants as well. It is up there for a reason.

We will use it more as we get more tools and integrate it. Currently, some of the things are still in beta. I am not leveraging it to its full capability because things are either in testing or we are looking at the software that is going to be connected. From what I have seen and based on the demos and how the beta is going, I have to give it a ten out of ten.

Good range and functionality with increased visibility of threats
Pros and Cons
  • "Its ability to interact with other third-party tools has been great for us. It can work through APIs and partners and integrate well."
  • "The MDM functionality and maturity still need improvement."

What is our primary use case?

We deploy and manage the product for hundreds of clients.

How has it helped my organization?

We are a large global insurance company and we're trying to help proactively find a way for clients not to get breached by ransomware. This product is part of the way we do that.

What is most valuable?

The range and functionality are great.

The remote script orientation is good. 

The level of vigilance is impressive.

Its ability to interact with other third-party tools has been great for us. It can work through APIs and partners and integrate well.  

The solution's ability to ingest and correlate across other security solutions is helpful. It's been very important in terms of how we will move forward with the product. We're in the process of consolidating security solutions right now. Hopefully, it will help us reduce the use of some tool sets. It's helped us automate more and correlate better by bringing in data sets from different areas or systems so that we get a sense of threats. That's been really critical.

It provides increased visibility through Ranger. We don't need new agents or hardware. The ability to look for and find new devices that come onto the network helps us protect more efficiently.

It's been a great product in a couple of ways from my analysis of working on it. They have a great user interface, for example. It's easy to install and easy to support. It's allowing integration from all the different parts of our business and data points. Then there is the breadth of services that are tied into it. The support infrastructure overall has been great. 

Singularity can correlate with other data and it helps us put an automated lens around everything to reduce the amount of alerts we'll get.

We can scale with the solution and not have to scale more analysts. It helps us be more efficient.

It has already helped reduce the mean time to detect. The mean time to respond has been okay.

It's also helped us save costs. We're able to deploy a standardized solution that's really well-defined and offers very good training. The ability to scale has been wonderful and it's helped reduce the overall cost of the service we provide. 

Singularity helps us reduce organizational risk from a customer perspective. 

What needs improvement?

I'm able to have my analyst view everything from one console, and we have multiple boxes with them, and we have to log into separate consoles to access each of those one boxes. We really need a more centralized view of all of our environments. 

The MDM functionality and maturity still need improvement.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for two years. 

How are customer service and support?

I have contacted technical support in the past. They've been very responsive and helped us drive problems to completion. We've had no issues there.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We were using Carbon Black previously. Singularity has been much better about mean time to detect. It's likely 15% to 20% better by comparison. 

Carbon Black also didn't operate from a place of integrity.

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in the initial setup and found it to be straightforward. I cannot really how long it took to fully deploy.

What about the implementation team?

We handed the setup internally.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing is great. I don't have any issues with it.

What other advice do I have?

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

Flexible, secure, and great for writing custom rules
Pros and Cons
  • "We are able to write some custom rules on SentinelOne."
  • "Maybe they can develop some firewall aspects for it to better protect us."

What is our primary use case?

We primarily use the solution at our endpoints. We use it for security.

What is most valuable?

It's catching a lot of malicious and suspicious threats. That's good for us. 

We are able to write some custom rules on SentinelOne.

The setup is simple. 

What needs improvement?

Right now, the solution meets our needs. We do not need anything added to it. 

Maybe they can develop some firewall aspects for it to better protect us. If they did that, we can write a lot of rules for the firewall and custom rules.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for about two years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is stable and reliable. It catches a lot of malicious and suspicious threats. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution scales well and can work across platforms. We can use it with MacOS, Linux, and Windows Servers. You can use it with everything.

We have 600 people on the solution right now. It is used throughout the company.

We may increase usage in our company. 

How are customer service and support?

Technical support is great. They are very responsive. For example, today, if I open a ticket, they will likely give me an answer in 24 hours.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I used FireEye and Symantec. However, SentinelOne is better than them. It's more flexible and catches more threats. 

How was the initial setup?

We found the initial setup to be very simple. You just click through, and you're up and running. 

I'd rate it five out of five in terms of ease of deployment.

We're deploying it every month. SentinelOne sends updates every month and we action them. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Licensing is paid on a yearly basis. I can't speak to the exact pricing. 

What other advice do I have?

I'm not sure which version number we are currently on. 

If a company has a lot of people and needs to protect its many endpoints, this is a great option.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Interoperable, saves time and reduces alerts
Pros and Cons
  • "It has helped to reduce our organizational risks."
  • "Using the filters takes a little bit of time to get to used to."

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution for antivirus protection. We do know it does more, however, we're trying to just get the antivirus program up and working and functioning at this point.

How has it helped my organization?

It's allowed us to really cover all of our endpoints, including servers, Macs, and services. We're hoping to do a kiosk mode in some of these services for our labs and facilities, and we're hoping that SentinelOne can actually do that. We're going to work with them to make sure we can get that rolled out.

What is most valuable?

The fact that they have a lot of search features is very helpful. We can go into their filters and we can filter out by specific computer name, for example. We can specify if we want Macs or we want Windows computers, or if we want just laptops, or desktops. There's just a lot of versatility as to how we can look up the devices and really drill down.

The interoperability with other SentinelOne solutions and other third-party tools is good. For other third-party tools, I've used other antivirus software that doesn't have this type of interface. This gives you a lot more latitude to control the computer to basically push out updates and monitor what's going on with the endpoints immediately. It really helps with everything that you need to be on top of quickly, and it really helps that we can monitor everything in real-time.

It integrates smoothly with other solutions. We were able to push out the software and the agent to all the endpoints rather easily. There were only a few stragglers who just weren't physically on and weren't getting the endpoint, however, the rollout went pretty smoothly. The few endpoints not covered were ones that weren't turned on or not in use.

My impressions of the solution's ability to ingest and correlate across our security solutions are positive. It works really well. 

We like the fact that we actually have a dedicated person at SentinelOne that we can talk with and work with.

It's helped to reduce alerts. The alerts have really gone down. We've actually had a lot of good coverage. There really haven't been that many alerts or issues. They've actually caught a lot of issues and threats before it's even been a problem. It's really helped cut down on the amount of work that we have to do on our end for troubleshooting and the prevention of viruses or phishing attempts.

This solution helped us to free up the time for other projects and tasks for your team members. We just rolled out a new software program, and it allowed us to focus on that more rather than having to deal with virus alerts that come through from our previous virus program. They've really managed it for us and really helped us find more time to work on the projects that we really need to focus on to advance our business rather than worry about threats that are coming through. It's been quite a time saver. 

It helped to reduce our organization's mean time to detect. It's got a much nicer interface to work with, and it's really helped to have them as a working partner rather than our previous vendor which was just a little harder to get a hold of and not as easy to work with.

The mean time to respond is much quicker than what we did have. 

It has helped to reduce our organizational risks. We save a lot of hours by not having to deal with all the alerts and managing them. It has saved us many hours of work and really helped us focus on what we really are there to do rather than working on the threats that come our way.

The solution does allow us to be innovative. The product has a nice interface and is quite robust in comparison. We like the options and availability and how it allowed us to manage our endpoints.

What needs improvement?

Using the filters takes a little bit of time to get used to. There are so many. You have to scroll from side to side in the filter section to find them. It's not very user-friendly. 

Some of the options they have up top are a bit much. It is a bit daunting. It minimizes, and then you have to click on select filters for it to completely open, and then you've got a scroll to the right or scroll to the left. Even if you maximize your screen from left to right, there are still more filters to scroll through. They're not well laid out.

I haven't used the reporting feature much, however, having a little bit more options in reporting would be helpful.

For how long have I used the solution?

I started using the solution about six months ago. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is very stable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have about 400 endpoints. They are all deployed in one location.

It is a scalable product. If we need to add more endpoints, we can. That said, we have yet to scale. 

How are customer service and support?

Technical support has been really good. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We had a current vendor called Carbon Black who did our antivirus software, however, it wasn't it wasn't working as well as we would have liked. So we went with SentinelOne to give us a more complete solution.

There is just a lot of functionality on the end of SentinelOne that we just didn't have with Carbon Black, and it just made a lot more sense to go with this. Even though it was priced a little bit more.

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in the deployment of the solution. The process was very simple. SentinelOne took care of most of it for us. 

SentinelOne pushed out the agent for us. 

We did not need a lot of resources in terms of staff members. We were involved in the planning yet not too much of the implementation. We're still working on covering the last few machines. 

There is some maintenance, however, they are mostly updates and those are pushed out by SentinelOne. 

What about the implementation team?

We had a representative from the vendor who helped with the deployment. 

What was our ROI?

I can't speak to the exact numbers in terms of ROI. However, other programs do not have as much support and in that sense, support, along with savings, has provided some form of ROI. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

My understanding is the pricing is reasonable. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated other options as well. We looked at Norton, McAfee, and Avast, which were built-in. We went with this product based on the support we would get and the fact that they were personable and easy to work with. We have a dedicated customer service rep that we can talk with about any issues.

What other advice do I have?

We do not use the Ranger feature at this time. We would need to upgrade if we wanted to use that, apparently. So we just decided not to go with that.

The quality is good. I like the way it works and the amount of options it has. However, it has so many options and functionalities you need to really figure out how it works. It takes care of a lot of things for you. You can just set it and forget it. 

They are great as a strategic security partner. They worked closely with us and were good at explaining the layout and how the solution would work. They are very helpful.

I'd recommend the solution for users looking for antivirus or endpoint management. It's got great features for both small and large companies. I'd talk with SentinelOne about a company's individual needs. They are quite flexible.  

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

Robust, good visibility, and easy deployment
Pros and Cons
  • "It is a robust solution. It provides great visibility."
  • "It is complicated to do certain tasks."

What is our primary use case?

We are a system integrator. We are a SentinelOne partner, and we provide Singularity Complete to our customers.

How has it helped my organization?

Singularity Complete has helped to reduce alerts. There is about 50% reduction. It automatically generates alerts and can also solve a problem.

It has reduced the mean time to detect (MTTD). It has real-time detection, and it has been very good so far.

The mean time to respond (MTTR) has been reduced. We can respond to an incident in 10 to 15 minutes.

Singularity Complete saves costs for our customers. Its automation helps save money. There is a reduction in the operational costs.

It reduces the risk for the organization. They have an AI engine to detect new threats, such as Zero-day threats.

What is most valuable?

It is a robust solution. It provides great visibility. It scans and shows the vulnerabilities in our devices.

What needs improvement?

It is complicated to do certain tasks.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with Singularity Complete for about one year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is stable. Our customers have not had any issues.

How are customer service and support?

I have not used their support so far.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have worked with Symantec and one more solution for endpoint protection. Singularity Complete has an AI engine. There is no need to download anything.

How was the initial setup?

It is very easy to deploy. It takes about a week.

What other advice do I have?

We are a partner of SentinelOne. We are happy with SentinelOne as our strategic security partner. 

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete a ten out of ten.

For the first time we have global knowledge of what's happening in all of our subsidiaries
Pros and Cons
  • "One of the features that convinced us to adopt SentinelOne was that the solution can recognize and respond to attacks with or without a network connection. That is very important."
  • "Generally, the stability is good, but I would like to see better stability from the solution. The stability issue is partially a con of a behavioral-based product, but being behavioral-based, it also has a lot of pros."

What is our primary use case?

We were looking for an EDR solution to get the best protection available, especially against ransomware. For us, any EDR solution needed to be supported by a 24/7 SOC.

We deploy it on-premise, in all of our factories and branch offices, worldwide.

How has it helped my organization?

Security operations have been improved as SentinelOne is easier to manage and update compared to most traditional anti-malware products. It enables us, for the first time, to have global knowledge of what's happening in all of our subsidiaries. Previously, each of them had a local antivirus solution.

What is most valuable?

  • Easy to install and update
  • Management Console in the cloud
  • Ability to partition it in "sites" (our subsidiaries) with local site admin
  • Overall good quality protection

Also, in terms of impact on the endpoint, we carefully manage endpoints for specific purposes (such as for connection to industrial machines) to avoid the false positives that are quite typical in a behavioral engine like SentinelOne. But generally, the impact is quite low, and the Management Console and SOC support allow us to check if everything is working properly or not.

In addition, one of the features that convinced us to adopt SentinelOne was that the solution can recognize and respond to attacks with or without a network connection. That is very important.

For how long have I used the solution?

We started to install SentinelOne on the first endpoints in August of 2019.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Generally, the stability is good, but I would like to see better stability from the solution. The stability issue is partially a con of a behavioral-based product, but being behavioral-based, it also has a lot of pros.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability is good. At present, I can't see scalability limits.

We have SentinelOne installed on almost 1,700 endpoints and have one main admin for deployment and maintenance and about 20 local site admins.

We have some factories and branch offices where the solution is not yet installed. We hope to complete most of them by the end of this year and, by then, have it installed on about 2,300 endpoints.

How are customer service and technical support?

Support is quite fast to solve problems. The SOC is very good and really operates 24/7. When necessary, they contact SentinelOne support directly and their replies, generally, are quite fast.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We used traditional antivirus solutions. None of them could stop ransomware attacks and that's the main reason we choose SentinelOne.

In terms of the time it takes for SentinelOne to catch malware compared to our previous platform, the results are similar, with an advantage of SentinelOne being its discovering of Zero-day threats and ransomware.

A SOC provider showed us the product, and we worked out a global agreement for EDR and SOC with them.

How was the initial setup?

The initial complexity was mainly related to finding the right exclusions to avoid false positives, especially with endpoints running technical and industrial software.

The rollout in our main company, with about 600 endpoints, was completed in about three months, including the initial fine-tuning for the AI engine.

In terms of our deployment strategy, in the first company where we installed SentinelOne, we chose to maintain our traditional antivirus product, and run SentinelOne together with it. The decision came about because we were not initially confident with SentinelOne. When we deployed it later to all of our subsidiaries, SentinelOne replaced the local antivirus solution.

What about the implementation team?

Main support was provided by the SOC company, working together with our IT Staff.

What was our ROI?

We have seen a good ROI about the SOC service and the product.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The solution's price/performance ratio is reasonable.

In addition to the standard licensing fees there is, of course, the SOC service fee.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated main SOC companies and the solutions they provide. Most of them required a SIEM platform but not specifically an EDR solution. In the end, we chose the best and most affordable combination of SOC and EDR.

What other advice do I have?

My advice is to start with a few endpoints and become comfortable with SentinelOne, and test the exclusion rules for endpoints running specific software.

At present, it looks like the most advanced EDR solution on the market, but I think we have to stay tuned to the market and to what's happening in cybercrime, as 100 percent security doesn't exist.

Improves our visibility and response across multiple platforms in our enterprise network
Pros and Cons
  • "The visibility and, obviously, the protection aspects are second to none when it comes to speed. Another thing we fall back on is the option to roll back an endpoint if it is infected. There is a shadow copy so that if a PC downloads malicious content, we can roll it back to the state it was in before that package was imported."
  • "Their documentation could afford to be a little bit better communicated. A lot of times we have to look at things in the knowledge base, and much of that could be communicated better, but that would probably be the only thing that needs to be improved."

What is our primary use case?

Our primary use case would be for active XDR protection. We wanted an innovative XDR to keep up with the rising dangers of malware, ransomware, et cetera.

How has it helped my organization?

Our visibility and response to a lot of the things that come with an enterprise network have improved. We have users doing multiple things across different platforms. There are applications, servers, endpoints, and certain things that fit in the wild, and it does a really good job protecting all of them.

It has saved time for my team because of what we can do in terms of device control that it provides externally. We have total control.

When it comes to detection, we have email alerts when a threat comes across, so it's pretty quick. And if we have predefined responses to certain threats, then obviously, our response is instantaneous. But in a lot of cases, we like to have our administrators take a look at it and make sure it gets remediated as quickly as possible.

As for security, SentinelOne Singularity puts us in a better place than most solutions. We can look at platform reviews that keep us in the loop regarding what's not considered a good solution.

What is most valuable?

The visibility and, obviously, the protection aspects are second to none when it comes to speed. Another thing we fall back on is the option to roll back an endpoint if it is infected. There is a shadow copy so that if a PC downloads malicious content, we can roll it back to the state it was in before that package was imported.

It also has a lot of flexibility with its ability to ingest things.

And the AI feature of the solution is prompt in how it learns a certain network and how it responds to certain things. If you do come across false positives, it's relatively easy to get around them.

What needs improvement?

There are some obstacles you have to overcome when it comes to whitelisting and the like, but that's true of every XDR platform.

Their documentation could afford to be a little bit better communicated. A lot of times we have to look at things in the knowledge base, and much of that could be communicated better, but that would probably be the only thing that needs to be improved.

For how long have I used the solution?

We've been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for about three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would give it an A-plus in stability. A lot of times, when you download a new endpoint protection agent or an AV agent, you might run into a lot of compatibility issues or programs kind of freezing up.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I would give it an A-plus for scalability as well.

How are customer service and support?

Our experience with their technical support has been straightforward and good. We got good, timely responses.

As a strategic partner, they're "the new guy on the block." There is some talk of them being bought out. I have heard some rumors like that. But from what I've seen, SentinelOne is just as good as, or better than, any other security partner out there.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We did use an endpoint protection platform, but I can't comment on which one we used.

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in the whole process of deployment. One thing that wasn't SentinelOne's forte was compatibility with a script for an on-premises software distribution tool. Most of what we did was homegrown to deploy the agents to the machines.

What about the implementation team?

We did it in-house. There were a handful of us involved, probably 10 at least.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I don't deal with the cost side of things, but the licensing, as far as endpoints go, is a pretty straightforward and simple process.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We looked at a couple of other solutions but, again, I can't disclose more about those.

What other advice do I have?

The speed and user friendliness that this platform offers break down some complex aspects of the security industry, and the solution lays them out in a way that a general user can understand.

Definitely compare and contrast Singularity with other solutions. It depends on what fits best for you, what industry you're in, how mobile your network is.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

It scans quickly and doesn't use a lot of system resources
Pros and Cons
  • "I like that SentinelOne doesn't use a lot of system resources or make the system slow. It also performs a full scan quickly—within two hours. It has an easy-to-use end-user GUI."
  • "We'd like SentinelOne to upgrade automatically. It doesn't automatically update the agent if some system has an older version of the SentinelOne. It has to be triggered from the console."

What is our primary use case?

Sentinel One protects our endpoints from malware, viruses, trojans, and other cyber attacks. We outsource the management of Sentinel One to another organization. They monitor for infections at any endpoint on the console and work to determine if it's a false positive or an actual attack.

Most of the time, Sentinel One can automatically identify an attack, and it quarantines the process to block the attack. If Sentinel One can't make that determination on its own, the third-party team will further investigate the suspicious traffic. 

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne is doing its job and protecting our endpoints from various cyberattacks. Since we implemented the solution, we haven't seen any big cyberattacks get through, which has happened before. Any malware and threats we've seen in the past have been resolved by SentinelOne.

What is most valuable?

I like that SentinelOne doesn't use a lot of system resources or make the system slow. It also performs a full scan quickly—within two hours. It has an easy-to-use end-user GUI. 

What needs improvement?

We want more communication about features that we request and when they will be added to the product. For example, they can tell us what is being done about it. part, if that can be shared for the new features. 

We've requested that SentinelOne's agent provide more reporting on the endpoint's OS, system host, modem, and serial number. It's not able to determine this now. If the SentinelOne team can provide us with some updates about whether they're working on it, that would be useful.Also, we'd like SentinelOne to upgrade automatically. It doesn't automatically update the agent if some system has an older version of the SentinelOne. It has to be triggered from the console.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using SentinelOne for a year now.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We've had SentinelOne for a year and haven't faced any major issues, so I would say it is reliable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

SentinelOne is scalable, but we need to purchase additional licenses. We have purchased two licenses for 300 endpoints. The license not only applies to the users but also to some of the servers. We have SentinelOne installed on some of our critical servers. It can be scaled to whatever size we want if we purchase enough licenses.

How are customer service and support?

We haven't contacted SentinelOne support directly. When we need help, we reach out to our service provider. SentinelOne deals with threats when it detects them. If not, the service provider will analyze them. We haven't had issues with them so far. Their service is satisfactory and cost-effective.  

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

This is the first time we have used endpoint security. We were using an antivirus solution before this. I would say Sentinel One is doing the job perfectly.

How was the initial setup?

Setting up SentinelOne is a pretty straightforward process. We have around 300 systems in our environment. Working with our security service provider and four other colleagues, we completed the deployment 10 to 15. It's worth noting that we were handling our daily tasks, so we weren't working on this the entire time. 

After deployment, we have to scan the endpoint for maintenance and upgrade. We also need to regularly update the endpoint agents from the console. Our security service provider primarily handles upgrades to the console itself. 

What about the implementation team?

We have outsourced this whole thing to a security service provider. They provide complete security services for SentinelOne. They worked with our in-house IT team, and I took the lead. Once I learned the process from them, I could deploy it on a few systems, and they did the rest.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

SentinelOne isn't cheap, but it's less expensive than CrowdStrike It's priced competitively. There are no add-ons. We have a Singularity Complete license, which includes everything we need for endpoint protection. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We compared a few endpoint security solutions, including CrowdStrike before introducing SentinelOne to our organization

What other advice do I have?

I rate SentinelOne eight out of 10. It's a good endpoint security tool, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Hybrid Cloud
