Reviews On SentinelOne
Here are some of the reviews on SentinelOne from its users.
Jay L. says, “Very powerful end point protection feature sets including file roll back, threat hunting, etc…” He adds,
| What do you like best about SentinelOne Singularity? We especially like this end-point protection that comes with the feature that we can roll back files even in case of a ransomware attack. This can be a lifesaver to get back files during a ransomware attack in case not covered by backup software. In addition, S1 has been a lightweight software with powerful protection against anything it scanned. The cloud portal also has a lot of info for reports, thread hunting, etc… What do you dislike about SentinelOne Singularity? There were quite a bit troubles with the VSS occupying 100% space instead of the default 10% on a few agent versions. Some of our VMs went out of space due to this issue and we had to apply manual fixes for each affected server. It took a while for this issue to be fixed. There was an agent software claim that would fix the issue, but in fact, it didn’t. The VSS space issue was completely resolved after two or three software releases since the problematic one. What problems is SentinelOne Singularity solving and how is that benefiting you?SentineOne is a strong end-point protection that can provide day-to-day protections for end-user workstations and servers.SentineOne provided us extra protection against ransomware attacks where some up-to-date data may be without backup.SentineOne provided us a centralized management portal where we can find everything we need from managing end-points to visibility of threats, reports, etc… |
