Don't overpay for features you won't use. Here's our recommendation based on your use case:
Most AI tools, including many in the enterprise agents category, offer special pricing for students, teachers, and educational institutions. These discounts typically range from 20-50% off regular pricing.
• Students: Verify your student status with a .edu email or Student ID
• Teachers: Faculty and staff often qualify for education pricing
• Institutions: Schools can request volume discounts for classroom use
Most SaaS and AI tools tend to offer their best deals around these windows. While we can't guarantee SentinelOne runs promotions during all of these, they're worth watching:
The biggest discount window across the SaaS industry — many tools offer their best annual deals here
Holiday promotions and year-end deals are common as companies push to close out Q4
Tools targeting students and educators often run promotions during this window
Signing up for SentinelOne's email list is the best way to catch promotions as they happen
💡 Pro tip: If you're not in a rush, Black Friday and end-of-year tend to be the safest bets for SaaS discounts across the board.

Both are Leaders in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection, but they take different architectural approaches. SentinelOne runs its AI engines directly on the agent, which means endpoints stay protected even when disconnected from the internet, while CrowdStrike relies more heavily on its cloud for analysis. SentinelOne also includes patented ransomware rollback for Windows, which CrowdStrike does not offer natively. CrowdStrike typically has a larger MSSP ecosystem and a more mature threat intelligence operation through its OverWatch and Falcon Intelligence services.
Purple AI is SentinelOne's generative AI security analyst, launched in 2024 and significantly expanded in 2025. Instead of writing PowerQuery or KQL syntax, analysts ask plain-English questions like 'show me suspicious PowerShell activity in finance team workstations last week' and Purple AI translates that into queries against the Singularity Data Lake. It also suggests hunting hypotheses, summarizes incidents, and can autonomously triage alerts. This dramatically lowers the skill floor needed to perform threat hunting compared to traditional SIEM query languages.
SentinelOne does not offer a public self-serve free trial or free tier. Evaluations are arranged through the sales team or via authorized partners and MSSPs, typically as a 30-day proof-of-concept on a defined number of endpoints. Pricing is quoted per-endpoint per-year and varies significantly based on which Singularity tier (Core, Control, Complete, Commercial, or Enterprise) you select and the modules added on. Expect pricing in the same range as CrowdStrike Falcon and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Plan 2.
Yes — that is one of the platform's main 2024-2025 strategic positions. The Singularity Data Lake, built on technology acquired from Scalyr in 2021, ingests log data from any source (firewalls, cloud, identity, SaaS, custom apps) and provides search, correlation, and retention at SIEM-class scale. Many customers use it to retire Splunk or QRadar, particularly for the cost savings on ingest and storage. However, organizations with deeply customized SIEM content packs should plan a parallel-run migration period to recreate detections in SentinelOne's query language.
The Singularity agent supports Windows (including legacy versions back to Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2), all major Linux distributions (RHEL, Ubuntu, CentOS, Amazon Linux, etc.), macOS, Kubernetes containers, and mobile devices via Singularity Mobile for iOS and Android. There are also dedicated agents for cloud workloads and serverless environments. This broad OS coverage including older Windows versions is a meaningful advantage for organizations with legacy infrastructure that cannot be easily upgraded.
