We performed a comparison between Malwarebytes and SentinelOne based on our users’ reviews in four categories. After reading the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: SentinelOne, which is generally considered one of the leaders in endpoint security, comes out on top in this comparison. Users say it is a robust next-generation tool that uses intuitive AI and machine learning. SentinelOne is equally effective with most every OS in the marketplace today and can support legacy and new environments too. Users say Malwarebytes lacks basic automation and AI processes, which are commonplace in most endpoint security solutions today. Many processes rely on manual follow-up, which makes the tool cumbersome and slow.
"Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture."
"he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"It notifies us if there's any suspicious file on any PC. If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the ability to customize it and to reduce its size. It lets you run in a very small window in terms of memory and resources on legacy cash registers."
"The dashboard actually is good and it is simple."
"It is a stable solution."
"It gets the job done, and they are consistently updating it monthly."
"Provides successful ransomware shut down operations."
"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the EDR and the complete feature set provided."
"We have seen a decrease of approximately ninety percent in the number of events."
"The platform is straightforward to install."
"The pricing of the product is very good."
"It gives you good visibility of any threats or vulnerabilities that you might have on your network."
"The most valuable features include the agent installation and update processes."
"We have had very few false positives or false negatives, which allows our analysts to focus on their work instead of dealing with noise."
"The process visualization, automated response, and snapshotting are valuable. The integration and automation possibilities are also valuable."
"It has the ability to rollback a ransomware infection instantly and with minimal disruption to the user & provides robust reporting."
"SentinelOne has improved the overall security posture of the firm without creating a lot of hassle for our end users. Everything is a bit more secure. We think Singularity Complete has helped us reduce our organizational risks."
"The solution's in-place upgrades have been very helpful."
"The tool has helped us streamline and centralize things with a single solution. We are a small organization with a handful of people managing multiple sites. It is a simple tool with an easy-to-use UI. The product has an intuitive and up-to-date GUI."
"The support needs improvement."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"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."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The product is a little bit more expensive than the other brands."
"They could come up with better reporting capabilities."
"The online reporting needs to be improved. Currently, we have to look at it online, and if we want to download a report, it just downloads as an Excel file. It's just raw information. There needs to be some way to better display it when it's downloaded."
"The product could be improved in blocking malicious traffic, such as communication with known malicious IP addresses."
"Strictly in terms of cyber security, the release cycle should be quarterly, at most. It shouldn't be more frequent than that because, for one thing, keeping up with tech support is difficult."
"Overall, I haven't found any ways the solution lacks in features or usability."
"We have noticed that when the solution is doing the scanning, all the scanning activities make the device heavier. It slows down your machine."
"The EPP solution lacks the sophisticated artificial intelligence required for automating reports and letting you know about things in real-time. It stops a suspicious activity in real-time, but it doesn't let you know in real-time. You have to look at a report, and then you find out that something is wrong. You have to manually kick off a scan. With the Advanced EDR solutions, Malwarebytes has the ability to alert you in real-time, but they still don't do automatic remediation or quarantining of devices. That is something that you still have to do manually. So, the endpoint protection piece, which is just like their basic endpoint protection, lacks AI. For the advanced detection and response piece, there is an add-on that comes with it, but it still doesn't go far enough in terms of automatic remediation of viruses. It won't separate that virus from your network if something happens. You have to manually go there and do it."
"Communication and documentation could be improved."
"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."
"The training for SentinelOne Singularity should be free. The solution has a lot of features but we do not know how to use them all. The moment someone purchases the solution they should contact them and provide them with a feature session on how to use the features."
"The filtering features of the application management console could be improved."
"All is good for now, but we cannot rest, and continuous development - in particular with regard to the areas of automation, machine learning, and artificial intelligence - is required to keep ahead of the cybercriminals."
"There is room for improvement with the management interface. It could be more user friendly."
"SentinelOne is causing a problem with the data service that causes one of our applications to crash randomly. We're still looking for a permanent fix, but we have implemented a temporary workaround that excludes that application from the scan."
"The solution can use up a lot of resources when scanning. It would be ideal if it was lighter."
