We performed a comparison between Trend Micro Apex One and SentinelOne based on our users’ reviews in four categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: Based on the parameters we compared, Trend Micro Apex One comes out ahead of SentinelOne. Our reviewers found that SentinelOne's deployment time may vary, which could be an inconvenience for some customers, it also lacks reporting, policies, and endpoint visibility, which are important for many organizations.
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture."
"The main thing is that I feel safe. Because the processes that have been used to get a handle on the attackers are much better than other competitors"
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"SentinelOne is preferred because of its great features and nominal cost."
"The best thing SentinelOne has done for us is that it gives us insight into the endpoints. We never had insight into lateral movement threats before. Once a threat known as Qbot gets on the network, it actually spreads throughout sub-networks quickly. SentinelOne has detected that and saved our bacon. We were able to get in there and stop the threat, lock it down, and prevent it from actually spreading through. It would have been 50 or 60 computers. It had spread through in a few minutes. We have a lot of HIPAA data and FERPA data that we need to keep protected."
"The solution can search for hidden and dormant threats on encrypted traffic in your environment."
"I have found the activity timeline and threat analysis to be particularly useful."
"The most useful feature of all is deep visibility."
"The deep visibility feature is valuable. It is helping enrich our IR team in their investigations."
"SentinelOne is a stable solution."
"The process visualization, automated response, and snapshotting are valuable. The integration and automation possibilities are also valuable."
"The cloud-based management portal was okay."
"One of the better features, in my opinion, is that it also makes use of a web reputation. For example, if someone accidentally clicks on a link in an email that leads to a malicious website, they will block it."
"The product has proven to be very flexible over the years that we have had it."
"I can run a full scan and it won't cost too much in terms of resources, which is good."
"The most valuable aspect is achieving zero attacks and zero data compromise."
"The ease of deployment is one of its most valuable features."
"It is easy to learn. In just two or three hours, our system administrator could learn how to use it. It is easy to integrate and easy to manage."
"The ADR capability of Trend Micro has helped us in investigating the root cause for any threat that is hunting by providing us with good visibility of the timeline and activity of the threat."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"Detections could be improved."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"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."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete could improve by having DNS filtering. Other competitor solutions have this feature."
"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."
"The solution’s distributed intelligence at the endpoint is pretty effective, but from time to time I see that the agent is not getting the full execution history or command-line parameters. I would estimate the visibility into an endpoint is around 80 percent. There is 20 percent you don't see because, for some reason, the agents don't get all of the information."
"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."
"Email security should also integrate with it to get more visibility on it."
"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."
"I encountered issues running Singularity Complete alongside other machine-learning tools."
"We'd like to have a network map or scan to cover network security."
"The CPU usage when scanning is too high and we have run into bottlenecks were it consumes a lot of CPU time."
"The technical support should be more proactive."
"Apex One uses a lot of RAM and other physical resources, and I also don't like the web interface."
"They should include easy-to-use connectors to make it easier to connect to SIEM."
"Some of the updates still require a complete reboot of the system."
"The UI has room for improvement."
"The DLP model needs improvement."
"The Apex One endpoint sensor has room for improvement."
