We performed a comparison between Microsoft Defender for Office 365 and SentinelOne Singularity Identity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Microsoft Defender has a feature to protect each and every attachment. Even if it's an encrypted attachment, it will check for any potential threats."
"The product's scalability is good."
"There are several features that I consider valuable."
"The risk level notifications are most valuable. We get to know what kind of intrusion or attack is there, and we can fix a problem on time."
"Defender helps us prioritize threats across our organization."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365's most valuable features are safe attachments and safe links."
"Does a thorough job of examining email and URLs for malicious content."
"The basic features are okay and I'm satisfied with the Defender."
"The biggest value for us is getting a much better picture of what our risks are."
"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 incident and threat logs are great."
"The AI-based detection, scanning, prevention and mitigation features are the most valuable features."
"The threat detection capability is the most valuable feature."
"The protection provided by SentinelOne Singularity Identity is the most valuable feature."
"Having high visibility into all of our network concerns and a customizable UI are the most valuable features."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365 could improve by giving customers information on techniques to prevent threats. For example, information about best practices on how to protect their own devices against hackers and scammers, such as educational information or training. This would help others have a better understanding of cyber security. Additionally, there can be more security features added."
"Too many false positives and lacks an accurate capability to detect malicious SharePoint sites."
"This product's effectiveness could be improved, in terms of detecting unwanted spam or even malware between the emails, compared to other products."
"One area for improvement is integration. For example, when it comes to external SaaS platforms, we were not able to get a lot of information on integrations with such apps for security and authentication."
"The company should focus on adding threats that the solution is currently unable to detect."
"The pre-sales cost calculations could be more transparent."
"The XDR dashboard has room for improvement."
"There's room for improvement regarding the time frame for retrieving emails."
"Our engineers are dealing with issues to add exclusions to the antivirus for custom applications."
"We haven't received the expected support whenever we've had questions."
"The primary reason for this discontent is that we frequently encounter performance issues with our servers."
"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."
"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."
"The solution's query resolution time could be reduced further, and a faster resolution could be provided."
"The root cause of automation could be better."
"A lot of those features came from an acquisition of a different company."
