We performed a comparison between Field Effect MDR and SentinelOne Vigilance based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Managed Detection and Response (MDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Binary Defense's most valuable feature is the 24/7 monitoring and threat hunting. Their team checks the latest breaches and how they're done."
"One of the main benefits of Binary Defense MDR is the ability to easily meet with their support team to discuss any issues we encounter."
"The case interface is Binary Defense MDR's most valuable feature."
"The best part about Binary Defense MDR is that it runs on everything, and they keep an eye on things 24/7."
"The customization has been the most valuable aspect and was really the reason we ended up selecting Binary Defense. They worked with us to provide exactly the level of support, features, response, and collaboration we needed."
"Among the valuable features are the agent, continuous reporting, and dashboard. It has all the features we need and we haven't had to customize it, other than turning on certain features that we wanted."
"With Binary Defense, we don't just get an alert, but also a detailed rundown of why they're alerting us on it. They tell us what was executed, or the username, script, or IP. That way, we're not wasting time investigating."
"The most valuable features are the SIEM and the ticketing function; the latter is very smooth and easy to read and understand. We don't have any issues looking at the ticketing information when we're trying to identify what's going on."
"Unlike previous solutions, where we were solely informed of security incidents, Covalence's MDR allows for real-time incident prevention."
"The solution's advanced detection behaviors, automated notifications and responses, and automated remediation behaviors are valuable features."
"The ARO alerts are helpful to use almost daily to get a sense of what actions we need to take to expedite security measures."
"It's running in the background and does a packet-level analysis of everything that comes in. It also has an auto-response feature, so if something gets through and is clicked on, or somehow gets through the network, it gets isolated and quarantined, and we get notified."
"What I like the most about Field Effect Covalence is the ease of deployment, the fact that it's cost-effective to roll out, and it is reasonable."
"It is easy to manage surveillance."
"Covalence's cloud protection element has been excellent. A lot of organizations are using 365. It's hard to find a secure solution for protecting accounts. We've gone down the path of trying to utilize other security solutions for that particular area. We've been disappointed and always come back to trying to implement Covalence when we can so we know people are safe."
"I like how comprehensive Field Effect Covalence is."
"The best feature of this solution is the third-party management aspect. An external company oversees the tool's management and monitors the data it generates. If the EDR detects suspicious activity, it will react accordingly and take necessary actions, such as blocking a device."
"SentinelOne Vigilance has very good detection."
"SentinelOne is a comprehensive solution for protecting SOAP-based web services and AWS-based cloud infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its performance, which is very important for us in our company."
"In our company, we use SentinelOne Vigilance for security purposes. We not only use it to detect viruses but also to monitor any activities on the endpoints so that we can take appropriate measures to mitigate any potential threats."
"The endpoint security software is great."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"SentinelOne has a rollback feature that has helped them gain popularity in the market. No other competitors of the solution including Cisco, Fortinet, or Cortex XDR have this feature. SentinelOne is a kernel-independent solution. We don’t need to check the kernel dependency on the Linux platform. They also commit to a 100 percent recovery from ransomware attacks. The solution has rollback features for ransomware on Windows."
"We should be able to isolate devices faster. They should shorten the time between clicking on a device to contain it and carrying out the action. That would be a welcome improvement."
"I would like to get more reports from Binary Defense about what they're blocking."
"I would like to see more frequent check-ins with our security status."
"We found that an earlier version of the agent had high memory usage and that was a bit concerning, but we raised the concern with their support team and they immediately replied that they had noticed the same thing and had a candidate fix already available... it totally fixed the issue."
"The current reporting system could benefit from improvement."
"If I were shopping for an MDR solution today, I would not only look for a company that has the ability to alert, detect, and remediate, but also the ability to integrate vulnerability management. That's a big thing that they're lacking today."
"The only area I see for improvement with Binary Defense is their service portal. It could benefit from some enhancements."
"It's hard to think of anything that they need to improve on, but just to point out something, I would like to see them provide advanced XDR."
"I would like Covalence to implement patch management as well."
"It would be incredibly valuable to have the Field Effect team handle some of the third-party application patching they're currently identifying."
"I would like Covalence to include patching."
"While Covalence addresses our notification and visibility needs, it falls short in keeping information up-to-date, which is where our MSP comes in to supplement its functionality."
"Because this is a security solution, I would recommend that they extend their support hours, and perhaps for emergencies, even to 24/7 or 24/5."
"There are tags for security threats, but I only view them. I do not action anything. I just see what is happening. Sometimes, they are a little bit vague, and I am unsure what they mean, so I leave that to the IT experts. Overall, we are quite satisfied with their product and how it is working."
"The tagging of ARO closure has room for improvement."
"I'd love the price to be a little bit less."
"The process to replicate exclusions is not user-friendly."
"My only complaint is that the knowledge base is not accessible to the customer."
"The solution should add endpoint clients for mobile and Linux devices because it currently doesn't support them."
"Sometimes, SentinelOne Vigilance also detects false positives, which are not true. In such cases, we need to make changes in the policies on the dashboard accordingly."
"Occasionally during an update, customers may temporarily be without protection until the upgrade is complete."
"The solution's memory forensics capabilities and hard disk capacities are quite basic."
"The tool needs improvement in clear communication and detection."
"SentinelOne Vigilance doesn't actively monitor incoming emails or offer an email plugin for Outlook."
