    		•

    Detection

  • Offers the most comprehensive coverage in industry tests, with greater visibility.
    		•
  • Continuously fails to detect cyber threats in yearly industry evaluations.
    		•

    Remediation

  • Revert malicious activities through one-click remediation and rollback.
    		•
  • Only offers manual and scripted remediation options and legacy signature-based repair procedures.
    		•

    Ease of Use

  • Offers centralized and intuitive operations through a single platform, including endpoint security, cloud workload protection, and network attack surface management.
    		•
  • Requires switching between SEP and EDR interfaces, with “other” enterprise security offerings severely limited following Broadcom acquisition.
    		•

    Industry-Leading Managed Services

  • Complete portfolio of proven security services includes MDR and DFIR services staffed by in-house experts.
    		•
  • Has a disjointed MDR offering: Managed versions of Symantec were sold to Accenture by Broadcom, response capabilities are limited to containment.
    		•

    Lightweight Agent Footprint

  • Best-in-class offline protections with minimal performance impact.
    		•
  • Heavy system impact with 4GB+ footprint on disk, grows as you add custom configurations.

    Legacy vs. The Long Run
    Since Broadcom’s purchase of Symantec in 2019, the legacy platform has fallen further behind in adapting to today’s cyber threats, and left thousands of customers scrambling for a new solution. In contrast, SentinelOne’s autonomous platform leads the market in preventing, detecting, and remediating modern attacks—without the overhead and manual workflows.
