Featured Reviews

Otis Brinson - PeerSpot reviewer
Helps users keep track of everything from one place
The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that we can track all of it in one place across all those different locations. Because it's cloud-based and reports up to the cloud, we also have access to the back end, and an incident response team monitors all incidents. We also have an escalation process in place. From my perspective, there are other pieces of CrowdStrike that the security architect team uses as well, but I don't get involved with those as much. I usually just wait for the end results or the notification if I need to get involved if there is an incident.
Peter Nowak - PeerSpot reviewer
Quick response and reliable restoration enhance security operations
If the language barrier was addressed, it would lower the barrier for a number of German customers. It would take away a unique selling point for our own specialist managed service. I'm a bit hesitant, however, this would improve the product or the offering. Detection time already is very quick. The completeness of the offering was integrating more data. I am discussing with a customer who wishes to include identity data. Detecting early when someone tries to compromise your ID would be a nice feature.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It works as a security device and provides an extra layer of security to our devices and computers."
"As an end-point solution, nothing beats it, to be honest."
"Falcon Complete's best feature is detection. The interface is also user-friendly."
"Two of the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete are the remote terminal and unlimited IoCs."
"It has good security features."
"I would recommend Falcon Complete for anyone looking for a cheaper alternative that's almost the same quality as Cortex."
"If someone is using the old Microsoft Office and the system is not updated, then CrowdStrike takes action on behalf of the operating system."
"What's most valuable about CrowdStrike Falcon Complete as an endpoint security solution is that it provides different features against malware outbreaks. The solution is also cloud-based so it offers flexibility in terms of managing it. It's also easy to deploy the agent and you can deploy it through CrowdStrike, your CloudStrike console, or you can take that agent out and you can use different solutions to deploy it through your group policy, your SSCM, or any asset management tool."
"Automated information on zero-day threats is provided without us needing to ask."
"The quick reaction and the ability to restore the state before within a short time are significant."
"The quick reaction and the ability to restore the state before within a short time are significant."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is endpoint management...The solution's support team is quite good at giving us feedback if there is an issue."
 

Cons

"The one issue with Falcon Complete is that it can't be run manually if you find any viruses or malicious files in a post."
"It would be good if they fleshed it out a bit more, possibly with additional areas such as security awareness training. They could build that in. They're leveraging the same endpoint base that they have the security software on, but then they could offer a centralized portal or hub whereby someone like me could leverage it to track and put out security awareness training for people on all the common topics. I could have a centralized hub for everyone's results from that training and for the evidence that training occurred. It would be relatively straightforward, but it would add a lot for people in the compliance area. It would be a great expansion."
"All of our customers complain about the reporting and say that it is very poor."
"Their UI is a bit noisy."
"There have been some issues with Falcon Complete's performance."
"The solution should include some sort of DLP capabilities."
"We'd like the pricing to be a bit lower in the future."
"The support from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very fast. The support could improve if it was in the French language."
"For every new client or every new case, my company has to spin up a new instance, because of which there is a new URL."
"The interface, particularly the dashboard we use for looking at alerts, could be improved."
"If the language barrier was addressed, it would lower the barrier for a number of German customers. It would take away a unique selling point for our own specialist managed service."
"If the language barrier was addressed, it would lower the barrier for a number of German customers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not cheap, and it is not overpriced. It positions itself in the upper half of pricing in the market. You can find a product that claims to do the same and is super cheap, but it'll be not at all good. You can find something that says it does everything in the world, and it is the best thing since sliced bread, but it would be incredibly expensive. Falcon Complete is neither of those. It is always best to go somewhere in the middle, but it is not in the middle. It is in the upper half. So, it is by no means cheap, but it is worth it. Its pricing is well fixed. Given what you get in return, you wouldn't feel bad paying for it. They have a great licensing model. You can add extra bells and whistles if you want. There is that ability to reduce the price by turning off certain features if you wish."
"There is a standard license to use CrowdStrike Falcon Complete."
"The licensing cost for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is fair, and I would give it a five out of five. You have to pay per device/user."
"They are really reasonable for the services they are providing. When you add more endpoints, you are going to pay more for the license."
"We pay $50,000 for the 200 endpoints we have."
"Pricing is reasonable."
"The price of this solution is expensive compared to others solutions."
"Falcon Complete isn't too pricy."
"Price-wise, Cybereason Managed Detection & Response is effective for larger companies, but if you have a small company with less than 1,000 employees, then it gets expensive."
