In terms of getting ROI from SentinelOne Singularity Complete, some factors must be considered. There is a requirement for a few layers to start with. My company has to spend some money just as a baseline.
One requirement is to be SOC 2 compliant, which means an auditor will come in and ask about the company's antivirus software, whether it's running an EDR, including analyzing logs.
Another player is the cyber risk insurance, as the company tries to get the premiums as low as possible and takes security as seriously as possible, by demonstrating to insurance partners that the company is a very low risk in terms of threats becoming problems.
In terms of cost-effectiveness, mainly based on adjustments to your premium, which either raises or lowers the price, SentinelOne Singularity Complete is quite effective.

We saw a return of investment during the first year. We far exceeded our ROI expectations, meeting our ROI expectations within the first year.
The Storyline feature has significantly affected our incident response time. Originally, what would take us hours, now it takes us several minutes.
From an overall perspective, it has reduced our mean time to repair in some cases to less than seconds to a maximum of an hour. Before, it would take days.

If we weren't using any protective measures, and we were consistently experiencing security breaches, this would result in an exponential level of risk when compared to an alternative solution. Expressing this concept can be quite challenging. How would we even identify if a breach has occurred? Typically, we'd notice something like data encryption taking place.
So, I believe implementing robust cybersecurity measures is an essential aspect of operating in any technology-dependent field today. It's essentially become a fundamental requirement. That's how we perceive its significance in the present day. Therefore, we communicate this necessity to all our clients and that is where the return on investment can be perceived by using SentinelOne Singularity Complete.

SentinelOne is more expensive than our previous tool, but we're hoping to see a return by saving money on recovering from some kind of incident.
We have seen a return on investment. Because of the product, we have been able to focus more of our teams into other areas. Because SentinelOne handles most of the things, we have been able to invest in our CTI or SOC, and our e-discovery team. SentinelOne takes a huge load off.

It has helped us save a lot of soft dollar costs. I do not know if they offer it to everybody, but we have the ransomware insurance policy from SentinelOne that provides us a certain amount of reimbursements per endpoint should there actually be a ransomware outbreak. In all our time, we never had to use it because there simply has not been a ransomware outbreak on a single one of the machines that has SentinelOne properly installed on it.
We've seen a positive return on investment with SentinelOne Singularity Complete. The key benefit for me was the ability to proactively prevent suspicious activity on our endpoints. As a practitioner rather than a manager, I dealt with an incident on an endpoint and was impressed by the solution's capabilities. Singularity Complete automatically contained the threat, allowing me ample time to clean the infected machine. Most importantly, it prevented the need to rebuild any other machines, even the affected ones in most cases. I often resolved issues on endpoints within an hour or two, minimizing downtime and ensuring user productivity.

We've definitely seen an ROI. I'm not sure where we would be without it right now.
View full review »We do not put a price on security, but we have to choose between different products that are on the market. We are constantly evaluating other products every year. Endpoint protection is not something with which there is a huge opportunity cost by moving from one vendor to the next. Our security stack is not so integrated with SentinelOne. If, for some reason, they were not the best option, we could move to another option fairly easily. The fact that we are sticking with SentinelOne is a testament that it is not broken. It is still working for us. It gives us good peace of mind about the product line, where it is going, and the protection that it provides.

Anytime my company doesn't get infected with ransomware, there's ROI from SentinelOne Singularity Complete, as being infected with ransomware is pretty costly.
View full review »It has the best ROI that I've seen. If I compare it to Microsoft Defender ATP or Defender for Endpoint, which a lot of people compare it against because it's included with the E3 or E5 Office licenses, Defender is three to five years behind SentinelOne. You're also tied to Microsoft's licensing scheme, whereas SentinelOne is independent of all of them. The ROI is very good. For me, its closest direct competitor is either Cybereason or Palo Alto's Cortex.

We saw a return of investment within the first month.
On several occasions, we found some persistent threats that we wouldn't have known were there by using the Deep Visibility feature.
The solution has reduced incident response time by easily 70 percent.
The solution has reduced mean time to repair by probably 40 to 50 percent. This has been a game changer for us.
Analyst productivity has increased by about 50 percent.

Defender for Endpoint is more expensive than SentinelOne. Other solutions are more expensive and others are cheaper, but in terms of cost-benefit ratio, we’ll always stick with SentinelOne.
The detection and visibility over all assets, whether by the agent or Ranger, and the ability to take action as a result are worth it. It is all very intuitive, and for me, these elements are our return on investment.
View full review »In terms of cost savings, I am starting to get into the budget, but we have not got any malware or serious incidents. There are money savings when you do not have serious incidents.
We have not had any downtime. We have not had anybody's machines compromised. It has been protecting the endpoints pretty well. It has been pretty quiet. We have not had anything that we would consider a major incident, so it is doing pretty well.

It is hard to say, but I can say that we have seen an ROI because we have discovered things that we were not aware of. That alone is a return on the investment in my book, and my leadership understands that, and that is easy for me to make.
Singularity Complete has not saved us costs. We are not there yet. It will, but we are at the beginning of our journey. It is going to zero in on things that need to be corrected. For us, it is hopefully going to be that change agent or the catalyst for the change agent to our behavior. Technology can only go so far. We are starting to look at the behavior of how some of our business processes have been run because the risk has not been fully understood, so the costs are unquantifiable at this time, but I am sure they are there. I am confident that they are there.

It has helped our organization save costs. In terms of metrics, I can only go by what other competitors were charging at the time, and we got it at a significantly better price than what some of the other competitors were charging.
The ROI is not just from the platform itself. It is also from the Vigilance service perspective that has freed up my guys to do many other things. It saves my analysts at least two to three hours per day in man-hours, so there is a huge return on investment there. For the price that the service costs, it is extremely good value.

We have seen a return on investment because we have saved at least 50% to 60% since we bought the tool. It is an achievement when we get one solution instead of two at 50% less cost. It improved our KPIs.
View full review »We see a return in the form of increased endpoint security, but we aren't seeing cost savings or reducing the number of personnel.

SentinelOne has paid for itself more than once because of the threats it stops. It allows central management, the end-user does not have to interact with the antivirus at all. They will get a warning that says, "Hey, you went somewhere risky," but it's all centrally managed. We don't have to dispatch a technician to go out and try to clean something. I can literally clean it right here from the console. It actually has full rollback capability. If you have ransomware that goes and encrypts an entire hard drive, the way the SentinelOne works on a Windows machine is so that I can hit a rollback command and I can roll the thing back before the thing got there and actually defeat ransomware for that.
It's been night and day for what my job was previous to having this solution.

Rae Jewell
Deputy Chief Information Officer at a computer retailer with 201-500 employees
When we were at a point of 50 clients, which is an average of 10,000 endpoints, we needed four analysts using Cylance. When we switched to SentinelOne for that same protection, the 50 clients could be covered by two analysts. We dropped our need for analysts in half.
The average cost of a security incident involving ransomware is a minimum of $50,000 USD, and this is something that SentinelOne can prevent.
The product has a rollback feature, where you can take a machine that's been attacked and partially damaged, and you can roll it back to a previously healthy state. That saves endless hours of system administrators' time rebuilding systems. That alone can reduce the cost of an incident from $50,000 down to $20,000. There is a cost because you still have to determine exposure and other factors with an incident response to determine if the threat actor has taken any data, things like that, but on the damage to the equipment, with the rollback feature and the restoration features built in the SentinelOne, and the fact that it stops everything but the most sinister lateral movements today, just means that an incident never has to occur.
This means that there is a great return on investment for a lot of companies. Another important thing to mention is that they don't lose people. Approximately 60% of businesses that are hit with a ransom attack go out of business within six months. If SentinelOne is preventing those incidents from occurring, that return on investment is worth almost the value of the entire company in some cases.
It is difficult to put an exact number on something like that, but the lack of pain and suffering of the employees of the company, because they didn't have to go through an incident response, and the lack of expense for the company to hire lawyers and professional companies to come in and help them during an incident, as well as their increased insurance costs of having an incident is also another factor.
Overall, it's difficult to judge but it's a true factor in the return on investment of owning SentinelOne and utilizing it to protect your environment.

It would be easier to calculate ROI if we had already rolled it out to every machine, because the number I have to compare it with is for the complete installation on all machines. My feelings say "Yes, we have seen ROI," but I don't really have good numbers that I could give you.

We have absolutely seen a return on our investment because it has created that first-level SOC. Plus, it has all these other functions. It has replaced McAfee. We don't need a file integrity monitoring product. And we can see application vulnerabilities without using another product. And they keep adding features. Once they add this IoT feature, the ROI will be much more.

SentinelOne has reduced incident response time. The two main pillars that SentinelOne helps us with:
- Central management: I can ensure management that if there is a breach all the machines and endpoints are up-to-date and protected.
- SentinelOne allows us to switch off an endpoint remotely, which we could do previously. Most people are on-premises, but there are 15 to 20 people all over the world with laptops connected everywhere.
It saves a few hours a week for one person, because you can see the statuses of all the machines in one place.
