SentinelOne vs Palo Alto Cortex XDR: Which Tool is Best?

SentinelOne and Palo Alto are two of the top brands in this space, and this comparison will help you decide if either one of the company's tools is right for you.
SentinelOne's Singularity platform offers four subscription tiers that include their EDR service.
You can request a demo of both Singularity Commercial and Singularity Enterprise via SentinelOne's official website.
While you can request a demo of Cortex XDR on Palo Alto's official website, there is no explicit price list of both Cortex XDR tiers as of May 2024.
Personally, I would've liked to see more transparent pricing from Palo Alto to get a better understanding of Cortex XDR's value proposition.
You can contact them for both a demo and a price quote for their EDR and XDR services.
SentinelOne's Singularity XDR has an automated Storyline feature that automatically links events and associated activities together, helping cybersecurity experts learn what happened and when.
SentinelOne's automation capabilities also extend to artificial intelligence models residing on each device in a network.
Palo Alto's automation for Cortex XDR extends customizable features and automation packs that help companies start streamlining processes faster.
Cortex XDR can automatically integrate host data with network and flow logs, making it easier to pinpoint the root cause of a threat.
SentinelOne recently introduced new PowerQuery analytics features that allow users to search through and summarize data without working with it manually.
By comparison, Cortex XDR aims to reduce the alert fatigue often associated with data analysis by letting people only receive notifications about the events that matter most to them.
The SentinelOne dashboard allows users to create custom detection rules against certain threats.
SentinelOne also retains data for a year, making it easier for users to perform historical analyses and see if current threats have caused problems before.
More cloud security coverage SentinelOne Singularity pros and cons Pros Cons.
While Cortex XDR is preferred for its ease of use and ongoing product support over SentinelOne, the platform requires more configuration to work well, especially for in-house and custom software.
Users also tend to prefer SentinelOne's new feature rollouts and its ability to cover mobile device security.
SentinelOne is ideal for smaller teams in need of a robust EDR solution that will also allow them to meet their business needs.
If you're still unsure, both SentinelOne and Palo Alto offer free demos, which can allow you to get acquainted with what's available and envision how these products could address your organization's pain points.
My comparison between SentinelOne and Palo Alto's respective EDR solutions involved a detailed assessment of each product's security offerings, cost and standout features.
