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.
"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 product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"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."
"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."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The ease of deployment and configuration is valuable. It's very easy compared to other vendors like Sophos. Sophos' configuration is complex. Fortinet is a lot easier to understand. You don't need a lot of admin knowledge to do the configuration."
"The protection is really good with Malwarebytes. It's also user friendly and quite easy to set up."
"The pricing of the product is very good."
"The solution has a good management interface."
"We don't have to spend any time remediating bad things happening: Not viruses nor ransomware."
"The platform is straightforward to install."
"When it comes to frontend protections, it has some of the best definitions. In addition, they do traditional signature and heuristic detection a lot better than Microsoft and some other players in that space."
"It is a stable solution."
"Provides successful ransomware shut down operations."
"The most valuable aspects of SentinelOne Singularity Complete are the ease of deployment with the Sentinel Agent and the enhanced visibility with Skylight, which provides correlation of logs and all endpoint data in a centralized location."
"The customer support for this solution is good."
"Its capacity to prevent new threats."
"It is easy to manage and install. It has a very nice graphical interface that is very intuitive when end users are using it. You don't have to follow or read a book about 600 pages to have knowledge on how to use it. When SentinelOne is up and running, you can easily find your way."
"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne is the good graph it provides. It has a specific page where it detects the recent attacks on other machines or the hackers, for example, group APT28 and all."
"Their platform is really easy to work with."
"The portal is the most valuable feature because it provides us with a single pane of glass view and is highly intuitive."
"The most valuable aspect of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is the protection it provides."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"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."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"The support needs improvement."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"The solution is not user-friendly."
"Malwarebytes is too simplistic. From a SOC IR perspective, it doesn't give you very much data around it. It doesn't tie things or provide SHA-1 and SHA-256 detection information, which makes it hard to do an additional investigation."
"They could come up with better reporting capabilities."
"The reporting is not as flexible as you would find with other antivirus software."
"This solution reports far too many false positives!"
"Malwarebytes is not there in the reports from Gartner or IDC...If we look at the market trends and the industry, most customers look at Gartner's reports to identify whether a product is a leader, challenger, or a big product, depending on which they choose."
"Every once in a while, it gets clobbered by updates from other places. I don't think this should happen."
"They should make it faster, less taxing on the processor."
"Malwarebytes can improve its network database. Malwarebytes can scan the files and registry. It can scan the system with a light agent. It will not impact the performance of your PC. You can do the full scan and database scan using the EDR, and the RAM and CPU consumption will not increase."
"The solution does not have an application security and control module."
"One way to improve and get additional benefits would be for SentinelOne to host the updated installer files for us, rather than us having to download and host them ourselves."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete could improve by having DNS filtering. Other competitor solutions have this feature."
"When comparing SentinelOne to CrowdStrike, I find that CrowdStrike has more comprehensive vulnerability assessment tools."
"Communication and documentation could be improved."
"I don't like switching the way you switch from legacy to XDR."
"I would like to see the reports from SentinelOne more customizable, as there are very few options."
"They could add “right click>scan” where most users were trained to do so in handling flash drives."
