We performed a comparison between Microsoft Defender for Office 365 and SentinelOne Singularity Identity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365's most valuable feature is its performance."
"The risk level notifications are most valuable. We get to know what kind of intrusion or attack is there, and we can fix a problem on time."
"The technical support is good and quick to resolve issues."
"The email protection is excellent, especially in terms of anti-phishing policies."
"Defender for Office 365 has helped eliminate having to look at multiple dashboards and that is the aspect I like most about it. It is simpler, effective, and convenient. The users like the process efficiency."
"Does a thorough job of examining email and URLs for malicious content."
"The initial setup is straightforward. You just add the license, click it, and then you can set up the rules. It is quite simple."
"I would say that 90% of the spam and phishing attack emails get blocked right off the bat."
"The threat detection capability is the most valuable feature."
"The AI-based detection, scanning, prevention and mitigation features are the most valuable features."
"SentinelOne Singularity Identity is very lightweight as an agent or software."
"The biggest value for us is getting a much better picture of what our risks are."
"Behind the scenes, SentinelOne has real people who evaluate problems and mark them as false positives. That's what I find most helpful."
"The incident and threat logs are great."
"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne Singularity Identity is its ability to detect based on behavior rather than just static signatures."
"I like the detection and protection features. We don't need to do anything, and it will alert us when the mitigation is not successful. We only need to target those endpoints. Otherwise, we don't have to do anything about that."
"There needs to be an improvement in integrating the product to work across multiple operating systems, and to have better support for non-Microsoft file types."
"The XDR dashboard has room for improvement."
"We noticed that from time to time, Microsoft's stability does have problems. Sometimes the service goes up and down. Sometimes they change without prior notice."
"The visibility for the weaknesses in the system and unauthorized access can be improved."
"There is room for improvement with the UI."
"One area for improvement is support, in terms of being able to reach them and, especially, technical support for configuration."
"The only thing they should improve is the licensing model. They should stop changing it. A year ago, the five features I mentioned were included in one product. Now, three of them are bundled into one product, and you have to pay extra for the other two. I don't mind paying extra, but I don't want them to change it every year or every six months. I need to know what I'm looking at and not worry about it next year."
"Microsoft security solutions work as expected. They are constantly updating the solutions to make them better. At the same time, the changes can impact a customer's environment, and we need to adjust settings. Sometimes we aren't aware of the changes, and nothing is pushed from the backend automatically."
"We haven't received the expected support whenever we've had questions."
"The solution's query resolution time could be reduced further, and a faster resolution could be provided."
"The resolution turnaround from SentinelOne Singularity Identity's support should be improved."
"The root cause of automation could be better."
"Our engineers are dealing with issues to add exclusions to the antivirus for custom applications."
"SentinelOne Singularity Identity could be more user-friendly."
"A lot of those features came from an acquisition of a different company."
"Our company has different locations, such as Sunbury, Oklahoma, and Alabama. I have my devices by location, and I have not found a way to choose all the endpoints and then push the update automatically. I have been doing it one by one."
