Comparison Results: Based on the parameters we compared, Trend Micro Apex One comes out ahead of SentinelOne. Our reviewers found that SentinelOne's deployment time may vary, which could be an inconvenience for some customers, it also lacks reporting, policies, and endpoint visibility, which are important for many organizations.
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"The main thing is that I feel safe. Because the processes that have been used to get a handle on the attackers are much better than other competitors"
"The stability is very good."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"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 price is low and quite competitive with others."
"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."
"We find the solution to be scalable."
"Its ability to interact with other third-party tools has been great for us. It can work through APIs and partners and integrate well."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Vigilance Respond Pro monitoring. You don't have to have a dedicated SOC and worry about staffing."
"SentinelOne also provides equal protection across Windows, Linux, and macOS. I have all of them and every flavor of them you could possibly imagine. They've done a great job because I still have a lot of legacy infrastructure to support. It can support legacy environments as well as newer environments, including all the latest OS's... There are cost savings not only on licensing but because I don't have to have different people managing different consoles."
"SentinelOne is a stable solution."
"The most valuable aspect of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is the protection it provides."
"Scalable endpoint protection solution that takes seconds to set up per device. It has a rollback feature and offers good technical support."
"Most of the features are valuable. As a system integrator, agent deployment is valuable. It also fits the requirements of most of the clients."
"The number of accessories included is the most valuable feature."
"I like Apex One's DLP capabilities. You can scan and control data leakage on the user system level. Our previous solution would look at things from the user desktop level, and you had to have an agent deployed to collect that. The solution offers different levels of protection that you can invest in."
"Its threat-hunting capabilities and the information about the known threats are the most available features. It can easily catch any threat in our environment."
"I use Trend Micro Apex One for work control, application control, firewall, whitelist and blocklist filtration, analysis, monitoring, deep security for the servers, major monitoring, and IPS modules."
"The main benefit is the threat intelligence network of Trend Micro."
"Trend Micro Apex One is a seamless solution compared to others."
"The initial setup was very straightforward."
"Device control works well, and the anti-malware updates are also pretty good. Every two or three weeks, you get updates. The frequency of the release of new definitions is quite good. We had peace of mind."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"Detections could be improved."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"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."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"The product must provide the ability to update applications from the SentinelOne Management Console."
"The only concern we have is that there are a few features that were not readily available."
"It has all the features that other leading products in the market provide. They should keep enhancing it based on the challenges in the market. I am fine with its detection capability, but they can work more on deep inspection."
"Some of the reports that are exported through SentinelOne can be complicated for people who are not IT professionals. For example, we have some people within our leadership who would like to know why we are spending so much money on their product, and one of the ways that we are able to do that is through reports. Some of those reports are pretty easy to understand, and some of them are very complicated. Because they are not IT or security professionals, they may not have the same grasp. I wish their reporting feature was a little better."
"I am not a fan of the UI and feel it has room for improvement."
"As a cloud-based product, there is a minimum number of licenses that need to be purchased, which is unfortunate."
"SentinelOne can improve by having better integration with Active Directory."
"I've had some issues with the specific agents, however, we are moving off of that particular OS that we were having issues with. Other than that, it's been a pretty solid tool."
"The reports are not eye-catching from the customer's point of view, which is something that should be improved."
"The EDR feature is difficult to use and could be made more user-friendly."
"I would like to see behavior analysis capabilities included."
"Apex One could use some updates to its UI, threat modeling, and insights. I would like to see better integration with helpdesk platforms and more AI-driven features."
"I would like to see the initial setup simplified to make it less complicated, and the price reduced."
"There is room for improvement in the reporting aspect"
"The solution could use signatureless detection."
"No product can ever be rated a ten out of ten. They are always improving on one aspect or another."
