"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"
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"It is very easy to set up. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being very easy to set up."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"It is very efficient. I like its simplicity."
"They have a very good reporting system and they have a very good dashboard for the administrator, which makes monitoring everything easy."
"The advice I would give someone implementing this solution is that the management of the solution is very easy. You don't need a lot of people to manage the solution."
"The solution is scalable, we have 500 users using this solution."
"The performance is good. It doesn't use a lot of resources, which is crucial for us."
"I appreciate the good control it offers. So, I feel confident using this solution."
"We have gained advanced threat protection without investing more into that area."
"The solution provides protection for all our systems, file servers, endpoints and domain controllers."
"The most valuable feature is the machine learning capability, as opposed to the traditional rule-based antivirus."
"Our clients have been able to survive a ransomware attack without even knowing that they had had files encrypted and automatically rolled back - even their Point of Sale (POS) system did not miss a beat and the business continued as normal without interruption."
"Singularity has the same features as other antivirus products, but it provides an added layer of security and vulnerability protection. It's also light on resources. Singularity doesn't use a lot of CPU or memory."
"When there is an incident, the solution's Storyline feature gives you a timeline, the whole story, what it began with, what it opened, et cetera. You have the whole picture in one minute. You don't need someone to analyze the system, to go into the logs. You get the entire picture in the dashboard. The Storyline feature has made our response time very fast because we don't need to rely on outside help."
"The most valuable feature is the rollback functionality, which is highly impactful. We can roll back deleted or compromised files. The Ranger feature is also interesting. It enables the solution to visualize the logs and assets that are not yet covered by the platform. Ranger also enables deployments and revisions. It doesn't always work, but it's effective 90 percent of the time."
"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."
"The solution is extremely stable."
"The setup is very straightforward."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"FortiEDR could add a separate scanning dashboard. In incident management, we prefer to remove the endpoint system from the environment and scan the system. We typically use Symantec for that, but if we want to use FortiEDR for that, then we need a scanning tab to clarify things."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"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."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"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."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"It would be beneficial to have more robust cloud management capabilities for Endpoint."
"There have been some performance issues. They provide good security, but this slows down the performance of machines' servers. The software is not updating as frequently as we need."
"Reaching their support team can be difficult."
"They're restricted to endpoint protection for now, I'd like to see some additional products."
"The licensing fees could be reduced."
"The solution could be more secure. It's an aspect the company needs to be mindful of."
"When it comes to handling the expiration of licenses, the solution should give a company more time to set up a renewal. It happens too abruptly right now."
"The solution is very draining on the computers at certain moments in its operation, excluding the scanning periods that make the computer unusable until finished. It is a balance between economic protection and client machine performance to our users."
"SentinelOne needs to provide more documentation for administrators and analytics."
"It is not so much on the Singularity platform itself, but they have their own built-in SIEM that is included with it. That needs to evolve a little bit. It is relatively basic in its capabilities. They have potential there for a great product and a needed product too. Having some kind of SIEM capability with the endpoint solution will save me from buying a bigger SIEM or buying another one. I could just use the one that comes with my endpoint solution."
"While SentinelOne Singularity Complete effectively visualizes security data across our solutions, requiring extensive manual effort for analysis limits its effectiveness. I would therefore rate it a seven out of ten."
"It is complicated to do certain tasks."
"It seems like they are doing a lot with their automatic updates. They can maybe slow down the actual release cycle to make it easier to deploy the most recent and then do it using the live update. They can continue to work on that because trying to get agent changes through change management platforms and get approvals and testing can be quite difficult."
"In automation, if we could schedule when we run the task and on which systems we want to run the task, it would improve automation."
"It would help if they could get all the relevant threat information, the related events, in one place. Currently, we need to go to a number of places and do research. If they could have it all in one place, that would help investigations."
"There is an area of improvement is agent health monitoring, which would give us the ability to cap and manage resources used by the SentinelOne agent. We had issues with this in our environment. We reached out to SentinelOne about it, and they were very prompt in adding it into their roadmap."
