Elastic Enterprise Search vs. SentinelOne Singularity

Swiftype is excellent for e-commerce companies and especially the financial services sector where speed plays a major role in executing transactions. It is also very dynamic and customizable. It is very useful for electronics/travel reservations on e-commerce sites also. The only place it is inappropriate is when it comes to indexing a website in which case Google is slightly better, as I mentioned before. There is nothing much to complain about here in regards to the breadth of applications and analytics it offers.

It works extremely well for investigating the root cause analysis of events because you can see so much detail into what was happening before, after, and around the detective incident. A weak point would be when the AI gets a little over-aggressive or doesn’t quite understand the use case for specific tools. Our RMM tool was detected as a pup.

• It's very easy to implement. The documentation is great and you can be up and running very quickly.
• It's easy to configure. The web-based user interface makes it super simple to configure (i.e. customize search rankings, edit synonyms, etc.).
• Their support is very friendly and helpful. Whenever I had a question or couldn't figure something old, they were quick to help me out.

• Installs on all of our Windows machines and only requires 1 reboot for the install to finish.
• It allows you to customize the UI and filters based on your use case.
• Gives a very high level of visibility into any concerns you have or should have in your network.

• Swiftype does not have indexes ready to go. When you add a new website to the search set, it takes some time to index the website. This is something that is different from what Google does. Google in this particular aspect does a relatively better job.
• Swiftype is very expensive, this makes it difficult for smaller companies to afford.

• Possibly for compatibility with legacy Windows OS's and non Windows OS's.
• Some settings are greyed out and unable to change but I believe this is to protect you from making a bad configuration change.
• Could do better with reporting at the base level subscription.

Reliable for simple installation and above all efficient

There are some minor issues with the platform that can be mildly frustrating, but the overall performance, peace of mind, and ROI make it worth using. The management console is intuitive and easy to learn, the endpoint clients are simple but give IT professionals enough data to make management easy and simple

Their support is good and quick to respond. The one issue we faced was when a non-protection issue arose there was a lot of dancing around trying to figure things out. This was frustrating as it took significantly longer to figure out issues. Lots of repetitive log gathers, screen caps, uninstalls that never seemed to resolve issues. Eventually, the product would be updated and the issue seemed to be resolved, but seemed to be the only solution.

Google Search Appliance is no longer supported. Apache Solr is a popular, free open source solution, but it lacks a web crawler and is more difficult to configure and maintain.

SentinelOne had all of the major features that we were looking for. The other products either required too much administrative attention or were lacking key features. For example, one could be uninstalled by the end user. We required that the installation be password protected to protect against end user disabling or uninstalling. One product required manual intervention for all remediation which put to high a burden on limited staff. All products are always being revised so these may no longer be issues but they had a significant impact on our decision.

• It has a positive impact as it helps traders and other users to seamlessly use applications.
• It has a positive ROI and we would know the results in time to come.

• SentinelOne has already proved its value by stopping attacks that would have gone otherwise unnoticed until much later in their infection process.
• The Vigilance team has provided quick response to threats that were not easily contained via the automated response SentinelOne's agents provide. This has given us a significant piece of mind.
