We performed a comparison between Trend Micro Apex One and SentinelOne based on our users’ reviews in four categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
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 price is low and quite competitive with others."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"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."
"When there is an incident, the solution's Storyline feature gives you a timeline, the whole story, what it began with, what it opened, et cetera. You have the whole picture in one minute. You don't need someone to analyze the system, to go into the logs. You get the entire picture in the dashboard. The Storyline feature has made our response time very fast because we don't need to rely on outside help."
"Previously, we had some processes related to incident response which required more steps. We needed to upload to VirusTotal, Sandbox, et cetera. Now, this process is shortened because all of the information we need is already in SentinelOne. We can briefly analyze and even respond from one management console. If someone has SOC, using the API, they can control everything. It's very cool. I think this is the future."
"The protection SentinelOne Singularity Complete provides to our endpoint devices in terms of cybersecurity is valuable."
"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne is the EDR functionality. We are protected against threats, such as ransomware."
"The best feature of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is that you don't need to configure a lot with it because it provides an unmatched layer of protection out of the box."
"It has saved us from a couple of ransomware attacks already."
"It is great for security monitoring and blocking when needed."
"The platform is user-friendly, easy to administer, and aligns well with GDPR requirements, which is crucial for us."
"The ease of deployment is one of its most valuable features."
"Trend Micro Apex One is a seamless solution compared to others."
"It provides comprehensive visibility into all client logs and seamlessly integrates with other products, such as CM."
"Its ability to detect ransomware and malware is the most valuable. Its protection is also good."
"It's a good solution, and they have something called Suite incorporating many, many engines like encryption, GLB, anti-virus."
"They have a wide range of products, including a couple for virtual patching, which is very important."
"The solution offers good community support."
"One of the better features, in my opinion, is that it also makes use of a web reputation. For example, if someone accidentally clicks on a link in an email that leads to a malicious website, they will block it."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"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."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"There aren't enough reporting capabilities for decision-makers."
"SentinelOne's performance and the accuracy of its incident filtering could be improved."
"Singularity Complete needs to improve its ability to granularly select and extract the executable files that I want to run."
"Improvement seems necessary, especially with the focus on enhanced support."
"The solution should include USB blocking for specific machines."
"We often experience interruptions to our investigations in SentinelOne Singularity Complete."
"I am not a fan of the UI and feel it has room for improvement."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete could improve by having DNS filtering. Other competitor solutions have this feature."
"The portal is a little bit slow in loading. The cloud portal or management control should be a little faster. There seems to be a lot of load on their servers over there. Maybe they are using one server for multiple customers. It would be great if they can increase server performance in the cloud. Its technical support and reporting can be improved. There is no proper reporting, and there is no PDF or things like that. They should include detailed reporting. An attack happened at a client's site, but we couldn't get the report on the same day. We were unable to provide a detailed report to our client. We approached the technical support, and even they didn't give proper answers. They need to improve the reporting capabilities, or the technical team should support us in providing these reports. They should include reporting in the solution. They should also insert sandbox analysis in Apex One."
"The support could be more customer-friendly, although my experience with them has been okay."
"We want to manage the policies in the group. Currently, if I am at one location and other users are at other locations, the main problem is that we cannot manage policies location-wise. The policy management should be improved. I should be able to group them based on the location. If one location has four policies and another location has the same policy, currently, I have to scroll the screen to find out the policy as per my location."
"There is room for improvement in next-gen attacks protection."
"Product performance needs improvement. Customers face the same performance issues on the endpoint of the product. We need improvement on that side."
"I'd like to see the different interface components combined into one, or be allowed to get to the agent management portion without having to log into the main console."
"This software could affect the performance of your device negatively, particularly causing slow performance after installation."
"It needs a consolidated manager as there are too many parts to currently manage it."
