We use it for protection and endpoint detection across our entire customer base because we are a managed service provider. It is also for endpoint protection of our internal machines.

We have Linux, Mac, and Windows. It has essentially replaced our antivirus solutions. It is our full endpoint detection. We then work in and partner with our outside XDR and our SOC. We interface SentinelOne identifications and alerts into the SOC so that they can manage those for us.

It is very strong in terms of the ability to ingest and correlate across our security solutions. They have added cloud capabilities. Some of that is through acquisitions, but a lot of it is native. It allows us to bring in data from everywhere, analyze what we need to analyze, and make sure that we are as secure as we can possibly be. When we have SentinelOne running in an environment, it always makes us feel more comfortable. We require it for every one of our customers. They may have a license elsewhere, but regardless of that, we essentially say that if they are coming on and going to be a customer of ours, we are going to remove whatever they have, and they are going to SentinelOne just because it is a far superior product that we have tested and evaluated.

With SentinelOne, we have not consolidated security solutions, but we have reduced our TCO because we do not have to support customers utilizing other endpoint protection solutions. We simply would not work with other solutions. We enforce SentinelOne to be the only endpoint protection solution that is monitored or managed by us. That obviously has helped our TCO in terms of the knowledge base and being able to support and protect our clients, but we have not reduced any applications or vendors that we work with because we stuck with SentinelOne from day one.

We have used the Ranger functionality a little bit. It provides network and asset visibility. It lets us see everything else that may be on the network that we may not already have an idea of. Just by having an agent in the environment, it lets us see additional switches that may have vulnerabilities or new machines that may pop up on the network that we are unaware of. There is a large benefit to that, for sure.

The fact that Ranger requires no new agents, hardware, or network changes is crucial to it being effective because a lot of different solutions out there require you to have something else running on the network to be able to perform the functions of Ranger. However, the way they designed SentinelOne, we can essentially have the regular SentinelOne singularity agent installed on a machine out there and enable the Ranger functionality on the agent. It will then do the work for us. Rather than having an additional appliance or an additional software service running in the environment to capture the information that we are looking for, we get it from Ranger. Ranger can help to prevent vulnerable devices from becoming compromised, but we have not used it this way.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete without a doubt has helped reduce alerts. With the policies that we enable across the board for our customers through SentinelOne Singularity Complete, we can onboard new clients, and as we onboard them, we are able to quickly and easily protect their environment without filtering through a ton of random alerts that are typically false positives when you are onboarding a new customer. That, to me, has been a huge benefit to having SentinelOne and reducing our overhead to manage the new customers that we are bringing on.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped free up our staff for other projects and tasks by reducing the false positives that we get for our existing customers and when we onboard new ones. It obviously allows us some engineering time to be focused elsewhere. We have been able to do more automation and tie in other protection solutions into SentinelOne, such as our XDR with our SOC.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has reduced our mean time to detect (MTTD) without a doubt. We get alerts regularly from the console that get notified to our SOC and also internally. We are able to respond to those very quickly. In fact, on average, about 90% to 95% of the time, SentinelOne Singularity Complete automatically remediates the solution based on how it is set up with our policies. Therefore, we do not have to do anything other than verify that it was a legitimate threat that was blocked.

Our mean time to respond (MTTR) is a lot faster than what we experienced with other solutions in the near past. It is almost immediate. It sees the process kick off. It remediates it 90% to 95% of the time, and even when it does not remediate it, it alerts us immediately. We are not waiting for a weekly scan or a daily scan that the other solutions typically use because it is all in real-time with the Singularity agent.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped reduce our organizational risk. It is one of those solutions that lets us sleep easier at night when we have it on a machine. Security, in general, is not set-it-and-forget-it. It is not a single layer. You have to have multiple layers. We have other solutions that we partner with SentinelOne to try and make the environment as secure as possible, but SentinelOne is definitely the starting point. It gets us protected, and it makes our lives easier with the device. We feel more confident that the device is secure from everyday end users who do not necessarily know the difference between a fake or a phishing email that has a fake Adobe or Word Document attached to it that they are going to download and try to run. It definitely makes our life easier, and in my role, it helps me sleep a little better at night knowing that all of our machines are protected by that, both internally and across the board of our customers.

The ability to quickly and easily identify threats on our machines is valuable. The fact that it protects the environment as a whole is also valuable. They have the ability to identify network nodes, and they have Ranger as a component of the solution that allows us to see the whole picture. We can see on what we have SentinelOne and on what we do not. There is always that concern that you protect what you know, but items can be brought into the network that you are unaware of because you are not sitting at every customer location every day or every office every day, so the ability to quickly identify anything new on the network has been a huge benefit to the application. It is something that they have added over time. It has been huge for us.

Interoperability with other SentinelOne solutions and other third-party tools is an area where you can run into some issues. Because of the way the agent works, there are sometimes things that are blocked or prevented from happening that are not identified as a threat, and therefore, not alerted in the console. Sometimes, we do have to dig through the logs, run tests, and adjust the whitelisting or exclusions to make sure that other applications will run properly. It is very effective, and it protects our environment like no other solution that we have ever worked with or tested. It is very strong, but you have to get in and look at the visibility reports and the information in the system, in the console, and on the dashboard to really identify if something is being blocked and causing a performance issue for a customer or on a machine. They have the flexibility there, but it can be a little frustrating at times to find the needle in the haystack until you get used to the console and understand how it works. So, there are times when it can impede the ability of an application. The way I typically look at that is that the application developer or whoever developed the app is probably using some functionality that is not standard, and that is why SentinelOne is effectively not allowing it. The only issue there is that we do not always know that SentinelOne is not allowing it. It could be impeding the traffic for an application or a database connection, but we do not know that initially. It does not flag that as a threat or block anything, so there is no alert.

They have device and network control that they have added over time. It allows you to take over control of the firewall through the network control, and you can block and manage CD-ROMs and USB devices. One thing that I always thought would be beneficial for device control is the ability to enforce encryption on USB and external hard drives. You do not have to have a separate agent to handle any of that even if it is just tying into BitLocker on Windows devices or BitLocker To Go capabilities. To me, that would be a huge benefit to the product so that there is no other application, and you do not have to privately manage BitLocker settings for USB devices or external hard drives.

Lastly, it would be very beneficial to have a solid SentinelOne agent for mobile devices that easily ties into the existing endpoint dashboards. With the proliferation of mobile and email threats that are exploited on mobile devices having a centralized console for managing these endpoints would be crucial in the future.

Between my current organization and prior organization, I have been using SentinelOne for close to 12 years.

We have not had any incidents where we have had to contact them for an emergency. There were no ransomware outbreaks and no major attacks or threats running through our environment, so I have not had to deal with that level of support. Typically, we reached out to their support when we had a question on interoperability or we were seeing some weird effects or an agent upgrade not wanting to push from the dashboard properly. For the most part, their support is pretty strong. The turnaround time is usually pretty good. We had only one ticket that had to be escalated above the initial tier 1 support. They get prioritized based on criticality, and even that ticket was closed within eight calendar days. To me, it was not a critical issue. I did not think it was an issue, but it took eight days. That was well within the expected time frames. I would rate their support a nine out of ten.

In the past, I have used Trend Micro. This was prior to endpoint detection times. It was more than nine years ago. I used Trend Micro, Kaspersky, Norton, and McAfee. I have also used ESET and Malwarebytes. Typically, we were using those in layered approaches. We put ESET and Malwarebytes on the same machine because they served different purposes, but I have not used those in nine or ten years.

By implementing SentinelOne Singularity Complete, we were not necessarily trying to solve a problem. We wanted to try and find a best-of-breed solution that was more effective than legacy AV because legacy AV is based on somebody getting hit by the virus, and then it allows the fingerprint to be used to block hashes, etc. Somebody has to get hit, and then everybody else can benefit from that. That was the old model, and we wanted to go next-gen. We wanted to make sure that we were using something that could be as protective as possible on zero-day outbreaks. After reviewing many of the solutions out there, we felt like SentinelOne was the best of the breed. That is justified year over year, and that is why we have continued to stay with them both in my last organization and this one. When you review different reports that are out there every year, SentinelOne is the leader year after year.

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 buy the licensing in bulk. From a pricing standpoint, because we buy in bulk, we get very good pricing. Based on its functionality and capabilities, it is well worth the price. I do not think it is at all expensive based on what you get in the solution. We use the complete up to the core. Our pricing is probably a little bit more than somebody who is on the core. In general, it is well worth what you get for the price you pay.

Overall, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete a nine out of ten.

The primary use case for us is to use the lightweight SentinelOne agent on our endpoints. Our previous vendor's agent was heavier, which caused performance issues when scanning our systems. We were impressed with how lightweight the SentinelOne agent is and how few resources it consumes. We also use it for some of our infrastructure, which includes machines with limited resources. We wanted to find a solution that would not impact the performance of these machines.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has streamlined the mitigation process and the time it takes to analyze and understand whether I have a true positive or a false positive. This has definitely saved me some time. The rollback feature is also a nice addition. Previously, our old solution would link out to services like VirusTotal, but it was difficult to follow these links to determine if an alert was a true positive or a false positive. For example, an alert might be labeled as a potentially unwanted application, which might not be as critical as a true positive. SentinelOne has made it easier to determine the severity of an alert. I have also noticed that SentinelOne has cut down on the number of false alerts. Our old solution would alert us to things like Chrome browser updates, which would download and make registry changes. With SentinelOne I have only encountered one alert that I didn't need to worry about.

We have definitely saved a lot of time. We had to spend some time setting up the environment correctly, scaling up the protections, and setting any exemptions. After that, the most I need to do is troubleshoot issues that are not related to SentinelOne, such as removing the SentinelOne agent if I need to troubleshoot another issue on an end-user device. Application updates, such as when a new installer is released, are the only other times I need to access SentinelOne, besides when I need to review an incident.

It has helped us reduce our MTTD. We are notified of threats quickly, and being able to see the threat on our dashboard has simplified the process. Once a threat is identified and I am on the screen, I can click once to view the visibility and see if the threat is anywhere else on our network. This is fantastic.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us reduce our MTTR.

Although it is difficult to quantify the direct financial savings of SentinelOne Singularity Complete, we have saved money indirectly through time saved.

Visibility is one of the most valuable features of SentinelOne Singularity Complete. It does not directly replace a dedicated SIM solution, but it works well for our environment and gives us the visibility into our systems that we need.

I appreciate that it is easy to review incidents that have been detected by the behavioral AI or the SentinelOne Cloud. From the notification we can click into the incident to start reviewing, it is just a few clicks. I have all the data in a single pane, and I can pivot to other sources of information, such as VirusTotal, with a single click. I can also hunt for the incident on the network with a single click. This makes things much easier and saves me time from having to review logs.

One way to improve and get additional benefits would be for SentinelOne to host the updated installer files for us, rather than us having to download and host them ourselves. This could be done in cloud storage or through our mobile device management platform. When they release a new package, whether it's an early release or a general release, I believe they could provide more value by hosting those packages directly. Currently, when they release a new package, I get notified, which is great. However, I then have to go to the portal, download the package, and replace the package that we have posted on our own cloud storage. This is time-consuming. If they could simply provide me with a link to the latest general release installer, that would be fantastic. Even if the link changes, I would only need to change the URL in our cloud storage. This would save me a lot of time.

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for five months.

I keep the central tab open in my browser. If I click Sign in instead of being signed in, the page refreshes, and I have to sign in again. I think this was just a session token expiring. I have not experienced any stability issues with SentinelOne Singularity Complete, such as crashing or downtime.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is scalable to our infrastructure and endpoints. Once we figured out the deployment hurdle for Windows and Mac, we were able to push it out to all of our endpoints without any problems. I can break out devices into different sites and groups, and some of those groups can be dynamic. For example, if I'm looking for a Mac computer versus a Windows computer, I can just click on the group and see all of them there. I can also add tags for anything, such as the OS version or if the person might be a specific risk. These are non-relational attributes and values that we can set, so we can define whatever schema we want. It's fantastic.

The technical support team was quick to answer my question and their answer was precise. I didn't have to go back and forth with them or explain things multiple times. They gave me exactly what I needed.

We previously used BitDefender and Malwarebytes. SentinelOne Singularity Complete was priced similarly, and we felt that it had better support. When we had a support issue, it was answered and resolved quickly. Additionally, the visibility and ability to traverse the logs of all the other devices in our network were invaluable. This allowed us to see if a threat might be present elsewhere in our network. This is what ultimately led us to choose the complete solution over the other SKUs that they offer.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete has a lightweight agent. Additionally, some of our servers are running older operating systems. The agents from our previous vendor did not work well with these older systems. I specifically looked for a new solution that would not be a watered-down solution and would function across our legacy architectures as well as our current modern setup.

Another benefit of the Singularity Complete solution is the increased visibility it provides. We are able to collect data on endpoints that are connecting to specific IP addresses or installing specific files with similar hashes. This allows us to see how far a threat has propagated through the network or if anyone else has it installed. This is something that we could not do with our previous solution.

We use Windows and Mac computers. Deploying SentinelOne on Windows was fairly easy. We were able to do it through our remote management solution. The installation was straightforward and simple. The most difficult part of the process was that the device had to reboot in order for SentinelOne to connect to the visibility service and bring everything online.

Deploying SentinelOne on Mac was a bit different. This is primarily due to the way the macOS operating system works. We need to grant specific privacy permissions to applications in order for them to have full disk access or screen recording capabilities. We found that if we installed SentinelOne on the user profile of a Mac computer, the user's administrator could remove it. This is not ideal, so we had to go back to the drawing board and deploy SentinelOne through our MDM solution.

The biggest headache was that, in order to deploy SentinelOne through MDM so that users did not have to grant privileges to the application, we needed to create a Privacy Preferences Policy Control profile with the specific permissions granted for the SentinelOne bundle ID. We then pushed this profile out to all users. Once we did this, the installation was seamless.

A few colleagues and I completed the implementation in-house.

We have seen a return on investment in the form of time savings. We used to spend more time on incidents, but now we can quickly triage them and move on to other things. This has freed up our time so that we can focus on more important tasks.

We did receive a competitive price for SentinelOne Singularity Complete. However, I believe the retail pricing, or MSRP, is a bit high. I hope we can get the same competitive pricing through our reseller when it comes time to renew. I still believe there are benefits to the solution, even if we had to pay the list price. However, I think they could be more competitive with their upfront pricing.

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Complete eight out of ten. The room for improvement is to add some additional features, such as Ranger, which they sell separately. I see a lot of value in Ranger, and I wish it was included with the complete purchase.

We do not have any direct plugins for SentinelOne Singularity Complete, such as Ranger. Ranger is an add-on that I believe can be purchased through SentinelOne to expand our visibility. We do not have that, and I wish it was included because there are quite a few nice features that I would hope to see eventually included or trickled down to the complete solution. I feel like those are just a few other cherries on top that would really put this package over the top. One of the struggles I have in a Mac environment is creating a custom application creating the Privacy Preferences Policy Control profile and setting everything correctly so that users do not need to interact with the application when it is pushed to them. SentinelOne has clear documentation and works with a few MDM vendors that have documentation already published. So when we were running a POC for a few of these vendors, it was very easy to get that set up, which is not something I can say for other applications.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is an intuitive product. I found the getting started guide and active preparation checklist to be very helpful. The checklist is well-documented and comprehensive, and it covers everything from the initial purchase to GoLive. The support team was also able to answer any questions I had about navigating the application. The interface is mature and user-friendly. I have not encountered any major issues so far. Overall, I am very happy with SentinelOne Singularity Complete.

SentinelOne Singularity Complete is definitely valuable as a strategic security partner. SentinelOne Singularity Complete was our top choice, and we are happy with it. I would definitely recommend it to my colleagues if they were looking for a solution for their company.

Maintenance is only required when the vendor releases a new general access version of the installer. I need to download the new version, upload it to our servers, and make sure it deploys successfully to our machines. This is the extent of my maintenance responsibilities. I do not need to directly interact with the application itself.

I would recommend that people evaluating SentinelOne Singularity Complete try it out to see if it is right for their environment. SentinelOne offers a trial that can be set up for their environment. When an organization purchases the product, they will flip a switch and there is no need to set anything else up. This was beneficial for us because we did not have to waste time setting up and deploying the product to a few devices in our environment only to have to do it again after we purchased it. I would also recommend engaging with the resources that SentinelOne provides to get a good understanding of the product. We can tweak the settings and see how it responds to different threats. If organizations have any specific needs, they can talk to an engineer during the trial. This was helpful for us because the engineer was able to make changes to the settings to meet our needs. Overall, I would recommend taking a look at SentinelOne Singularity Complete. I was initially overwhelmed by the different SKU offerings, but I was able to work with sales to find the best package for our needs. The SentinelOne team has been very helpful.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

It is an all-in-one agent on multiple operating systems that can detect malicious and suspicious activities. You can also use it to respond to different threat signals that you get from the platform.

There are multiple engines that run different types of detection, such as behavioral-type activities, that it can detect. It can also detect malicious activity based on a hash. It's a pretty great tool.

Overall, the level of detection and visibility we get have vastly improved, and that means the protection for our company has improved likewise.

Singularity has helped reduce the number of alerts we get. We were using FireEye at one point, and it was producing a ton of false positives. We have seen a major reduction in false positives, and that has saved our team's time. We have time to do other projects now.

In my previous company, we were using a Cisco product, and there was a ton of time wasted. Out of a 40-hour week, about eight to 10 hours were wasted, and with Singularity, we were able to get back about nine of those hours. Obviously, there are alerts coming in, and you have to investigate them, but the number was greatly reduced. In my current company, about 15 hours a week were wasted with false positives and wild goose chases and alerts. Now, we may put an hour into investigations. The great thing about SentinelOne is that you can get right down to what's going on with the events and deep visibility. It has saved us around 12 to 14 hours a week.

It's pretty quick when it comes to time to detect because you're right on the endpoint. Some agents have a delay in terms of when they report back to a console or a reporting server, but with SentinelOne, it seems that the agent is talking to the console right away. There isn't a huge delay.

Our mean time to respond is also very quick once we see the threat come in. It depends on the policy that is in place and the type of threat. If it is something suspicious, which we don't always have a set response for with the platform, we are able to easily look at what's going on a couple of minutes before the threat and what comes after. We can see the artifact on the endpoint, what is executed and what the user was probably doing. That means we're able to respond really quickly with all that visibility.

When it comes to cost savings, in the first company where I used SentinelOne, man-hours were saved, and it was cheaper to use SentinelOne than the Cisco product.

One use case where we've reduced risk has been due to users using something risky. They were trying to use an application that's like a keylogger. We've blocked it, and we've also created a rule using a star to detect when people are trying to use it. We have also set up rules to detect downloads of risky software, and that's protecting us too. It's protecting us from risk, but there's not a lot of reduction other than some protections and blacklists.

The deep visibility is a valuable feature. I can use it during threats or alert signals that we get. I can also use it when we have alert signals from other security tools that we have. I can use the SentinelOne platform to dive into those, even though there's no alert from SentinelOne, and zero in with a timestamp using its deep visibility to look at an endpoint and see if there's anything going on that might be correlated to a threat.

And Singularity's interoperability with other solutions has been a major bonus. You can put exclusions in place for other security platforms. For example, if you're using Symantec, you could easily put in an exclusion for that. The way that you can put them in, with the scope and the different groups, is really great. Singularity also provides pre-baked exclusions for interoperability with other pieces of equipment. For instance, for Microsoft SQL Servers, it already has pre-baked exclusions that you can put in for interoperability. It's far beyond the other platforms that I was using before.

In terms of ingestion, it's definitely taking in a lot of information at the endpoint level. You still need a human to do some of the correlation of the activities. The SentinelOne platform is looking at the endpoint, but you still need a human on the other end to analyze what the human at the other end of the endpoint was doing. But overall the solution does pretty well at correlating activities. I have seen some serious threats come in, and it definitely detects them right away with a pretty good correlation to the threat.

During my use of it over the years, they've been continuously improving it.

My biggest complaint is that when you're logged into the console there is the Help section where you can review all the documentation. But when you log in to the support portal, there is documentation there as well. They need to sync those two into one place so that I don't have to search in two different locations for an answer.

And I'm on the fence about whether to keep the agents a little bit longer than they do, before they go end-of-support. That might be an improvement, but I'm not positive about that.

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete for about four years.

Uptime is all the time.

I've only had one experience where there was a disconnect between the agents and the console. It was pretty brief, but that is when I opened a case with support. I had never seen that before, so the uptime is awesome. It's up 99.9 percent of the time.

It's very scalable. We are working on a special project, in which we want to set up a lab for a special event. I talked with our support, and they said we could set up another site. It's really scalable.

As I mentioned, I recently had a case because there were a lot of agents offline for a moment. Their support responded within one minute. That was an outlier. Every other case that I've opened up with them has not been a priority-one issue, but they usually respond within about five to 10 minutes, and they have been really great. I have not had an issue yet with support.

Everyone I've worked with in support is awesome. They always have the answers. Even if it's a complex issue, we usually get right down to it. I'm really happy with support.

I have used it in two different workplaces. Both workplaces were replacing platforms that just did not perform well and did not give you good visibility into what was going on on the endpoints. Both had a higher rate of false positives, and neither had the various detection engines that SentinelOne provides.

I was involved in the initial deployment of the solution in my previous place of employment and it was straightforward. It was only made complex by our own IT department.

There is a little maintenance. I check on a daily basis because you can build out multiple groups. When a new agent is deployed, I have it start off in a specific group to get the agent installed, and then it does a full disk scan. There is a little maintenance—and maybe no one else does this—but I log in and check for new systems. Once they have their full disk scan completed, I'll move them over to the production policy. You could do that on a weekly basis but I do it daily. The morning maintenance is less than five minutes for me, and you could definitely do that weekly as well.

I did it mostly by myself. I had another engineer working with me but that was it. It's really easy, a no-brainer. And that was for about 1,200 endpoints

I'm not a manager, but the return on investment may be in saving man hours.

When we were checking out different platforms we did get a price from Microsoft and it was unreasonable. SentinelOne was definitely reasonable and worth the money.

I've used several different platforms. We had a demo of the Carbon Black EDR, and I've used the FireEye EDR, Symantec, and Cisco.

We did a comparison between CrowdStrike, Carbon Black, and looked at Microsoft's EDR products.

As far as consolidation of security solutions goes, I have some suggestions for my leadership. I think we can definitely consolidate. For instance, we have a certain network segmentation where we have multiple security tools, including the SentinelOne agent and other agents on the devices. These devices are lower-end systems that don't have super-high specs like you might have on a power user's PC. In that area, we could eliminate one of the security agents and leave the SentinelOne agent. We would be covered in several different areas, such as FIM. I could create a custom rule to watch a certain configuration file, and if it changed, we would receive an alert. You can definitely use it to consolidate. Although we haven't done that yet, we're going to start because it's possible with the SentinelOne.

I believe we could save money by reducing the number of agents on those endpoints. If you walk that back to the yearly cost when we buy licenses, we should be able to save money on licensing for the other agent that we're using.

SentinelOne is very mature as an EDR platform. I would definitely put it in my top two. Across the breadth of everything I've dealt with using SentinelOne, even support, it's definitely top-two and you should check it out. I don't have a bad thing to say about it.

You definitely have to check out SentinelOne. They are firing on all cylinders for multiple areas that you want to consider when buying a tool like this. They're at 100 percent. When it comes to visibility, they present the information so that it's easy to read and understand. Responding is really easy to do. Support, which is a big factor nowadays, has faltered at some companies over the past four years, but support from SentinelOne has been awesome. Put SentinelOne in your PoCs. If you're looking at a couple of companies, you have to look at SentinelOne.

SentinelOne as a provider is a major player in hardening the protection of our environment.

Every five years, we research tools that could replace our old software. We combine our AV and intrusion detection. We were trying to find out if there’s an agent for the whole nine-yard, and we came across SentinelOne.

The product has an automated process where we find security issues. It’s a 24/7 behavior analytical tool to execute certain actions. The tool deletes the problem-causing process and prevents issues. It discovers, kills, and protects. The software is good. I don't see much of an issue with it.

They should train their own people so that they can train us better. The theory is good. If the product is good, but we cannot rely on it or pass it along to the customer, it's useless. When we purchased the solution, we were told that certain functions could be done. I understand it is part of sales, but I feel like I'm being fooled. We couldn't test it because it was in production. We first had a proof of concept but didn't connect it to our Azure portion.

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Complete since February.

The product's stability is okay.

The tool's scalability is average.

The support people of SentinelOne do not know the different products offered by SentinelOne. How can they support their customer if one person knows one thing and the other doesn't? They tell us the issue does not come under them and point us to a different team.

There is a SentinelOne support team and a Singularity support team. SentinelOne's support team is okay. Once, the technical support and help desk director got involved with all our issues. However, the director got involved after we strongly complained about the issues. That's not the way it's supposed to be.

I have used Arctic Wolf.

The initial deployment was good. The solution is cloud-based.

We took help from SentinelOne to deploy the solution. We paid for it, but it was not worth the money we paid for. Two people from our company are required for the deployment. The solution requires maintenance.

The licensing is okay. I don't see any issues with it.

We evaluated other options. We were trying to have one solution for everything. We heard that SentinelOne purchased another company. Other products like Rapid7 provide multiple solutions and products for our needs. We saw that SentinelOne provided us with one product and one support system. However, even while using SentinelOne, I have to contact different teams.

When we purchased the solution, it did not do what we expected. We didn't use all of the features. It has quite a few options. There are a bunch of more add-on modules. Other products from SentinelOne are not good. I am really disappointed with them. The user must understand the solution by just reading the training documents. The team claims it is professional, but it lacks a lot of functions.

The integration is fine, but the feature is not how they market it. It looks good on paper, but it's not what we think it is. It's not a ready product in marketing. I am disappointed with it. The interoperability is still under development. Not many people know or understand it, including people from SentinelOne. When we call and try to figure out what's going on with the solution, not many understand what it is. There is a lack of training on their products and services.

The Ranger functionality is fine. It’s only been six months since we started using it. We're still learning as it goes. I think Ranger is probably better than Singularity. Sometimes, they send false positives. It's not really a big feature for us. It's good. They're trying to prevent any networking attack, but I don't think it’s there yet. They're just trying to discover what is on the network, but we already have other tools for that.

It is important for us that Ranger requires no new agents, hardware, or network changes. Ranger is just trying to discover whatever issues we have. I don't think it can prevent it. I don't think it can block issues or protect our devices.

Overall, I rate the product a seven out of ten.

We use it at our enterprise to protect all of our endpoints. We needed an EDR tool, and this product was one of the top options that we looked at at the time.

We definitely get a lot more insights into incidents. When we get an alert, we can go a lot deeper into the information and investigate.

The deep visibility is really important for us. With it, we can really look deep into some of the incidents.

Singularity's interoperability with other SentinelOne is okay. It does an okay job. We can tie it into some of our other tools.

The solution's ability to ingest and correlate across our security solutions is okay. We can tie it into messaging solutions so that we can get alerts directly rather than logging into the console.

It reduces alerts. There are not a lot fewer false positives. I'm not sure the percentage it has reduced, however in comparison to before, it is definitely less.

The product does save a lot of time and we are able to get to tasks and respond quicker. It's helped reduce our mean time to respond.

It's helped us save costs in some areas. It would be based on hours saved. While the solution itself is a little more expensive, operationally, it helps us reduce costs.

We did use the Ranger functionality. However, there was some scanning going on and it caused a lot of noise, so we had to disable it.

The remote console is currently an add-on. Having the remote console without having to pay a huge fee would be ideal. They could reduce the cost a lot.

There was an issue a few months ago where the agent kept getting shut off, however, now there's a newer agent and that's not happening anymore.

I've used the solution for almost two years now.

The stability has gotten better and better over the last two years.

The solution is deployed across 2,000 machines in four properties.

It can scale well. We keep deploying it further and it works.

Technical support does a good job. I've never had to work with support a ton. They do a decent job.

We had previously used a few solutions, including FireEye and Endgame. We left Endgame when they got bought out shortly after we bought them and it felt stagnant.

The deployment was pretty straightforward. We deployed it originally in a reduced state until we had an outline for a majority of machines when we could protect the environment better.

We had two or three staff members who handled the deployment.

There is some maintenance required. We do have to monitor and fix agents and occasionally update the product. There are two to three people who perform occasional maintenance duties.

We set up the product ourselves.

We have witnessed an ROI, although I can't speak to the exact number or percentage.

I don't have any visibility on the pricing.

We did evaluate other options. We looked into CrowdStrike and SentinelOne and maybe one other option, however, it wasn't considered very long. We demoed CrowdStrike and went with SentinelOne as it was more user-friendly and had a better flow. CrowdStrike felt thrown together and was hard to navigate.

SentinelOne's ability to be innovative is good. They've done a good job. Over the last two years, the product has continued to improve, change, and add valuable features.

The quality of the product is good. It feels mature and is well-developed. I don't have any concerns with its technology.

They are a good strategic security partner. They are a growing company and one of the leading EDR tools in the space.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. I would recommend it to others.

This is our primary and only EDR in our environment. We have this deployed to corporate workstations and servers, utilizing a variety of operating systems including Windows, macOS, and various Linux distributions. The data ingested into Deep Visibility provides great insight into what is going on in our environment. The XDR capabilities in there almost make you not even need a traditional SIEM anymore. The Identity solutions involing Active Directory security provide great information on our environment for continuously auditing and remediating threats.

SentinelOne's ability to prevent, detect, and respond to threats like ransomware and zero-days without requiring immediate human intervention saves us a lot of time and manpower. We have seen multiple occasions of rogue applications, suspicious downloads, and unauthorized USB drives get flagged and quarantined before anything could happen.

We have gained 2-3x more visibility into our endpoints with the benefits from Deep Visibility. The timelines created from incidents paint a very accurate picture of what happened in a given time window.

The platform has significantly enhanced our security posture through three key areas:

1. Unified Visibility and Simplified Integration (XDR):
   • Excellent Data Correlation: The solution excels at ingesting and correlating data across multiple security tools (we integrate it with three to four other platforms) inside of Deep Visibility. It doesn't just receive data; it processes it to provide actionable insights, saving us significant manual parsing time.
   • Seamless Integration: We rarely need custom API work due to its strong native integration support with our common platforms, streamlining our security architecture and allowing us to consolidate several tools into the platform itself.
2. Network Visibility (Ranger):
   • The Ranger functionality provides comprehensive network and asset visibility without requiring new agents, hardware, or network changes.
   • Ranger has enabled us to quickly identify and manage numerous unknown endpoints, successfully reducing our unknown endpoints count from hundreds down to single digits.
3. Improved Security Metrics and Risk Reduction
   • Thee solution has measurably improved our Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) and Mean Time to Respond (MTTR), giving our SOC quick alert times and the ability to react almost immediately to incidents.
   • We estimate it saves us several days' worth of analyst time overall. While direct financial savings are hypothetical, the platform has clearly and significantly reduced our organizational risk compared to our previous security posture.

The grouping feature needs improvement. There are many times I've wanted to do blacklisting or exclusions for specific people in a group, however, I don't want to remove them from the group itself. Giving admins the ability to create subgrouping would allow for all parent exclusions to be applied without the need to create all new scopes.

The integration of an MFA push when signing into the admin console. I know this is a small thing but it is much more convenient to accept a push versus scroll through my many 2FA profiles to find the code for SentinelOne's platform.

I've been using the solution about 5 years while being on both an IT support team and Cyber Security team.

They are pretty stable. The company is expanding at a good rate and they are releasing new features to maintain the stability effectively. Downtime on their end has been very minimal.

Technical support is quick and helpful. They do a good job of addressing issues at level one and escalating if needed.

We are at about 98% deployment. There are endpoints that pop up that don't have the agent to get it, however, we're past the deployment phase or past the initial configuration phase. It's all just maintaining and tweaking, and as new features come out, we adjust.

I wasn't here for the initial deployment process. I've done a lot of configurations for new features that they've implemented.

Our team does general maintenance. They do a really good job of giving you the information you need to troubleshoot. Their knowledge base is very helpful to those brand new to the console and even more experienced users of SentinelOne.

The solution seems to be quite innovative. They are coming out with new features every month and continue to roadmap impressive products for the future as well.

This is a great product. If a company is unhappy with its current EDR, SentinelOne is a good choice. They are acquiring a lot of companies and solutions to add to their roster in order to provide a more centralized platform. I look forward to what they will bring in the future.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. It's going to be a good one-stop-shop and I enjoy working with them.
