Round-the-clock monitoring has freed our small team and improves our threat response focus
In terms of improvement for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR, they just keep going full steam ahead. The biggest room for a house is the room for improvement, but as of right now, I don't have any complaints about CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR. Additional features that should be included in the next release of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR would be on-demand scanning. That is something we have to do manually. For instance, if a user plugs in a USB device, even though in our environment we have USB devices locked completely, CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR will still read those devices even though they can't physically access them. If it does find malicious software, those are manually done still, and that's per the SLA. I have had a few of those that have come up, but those have been few and far between.

Reasonable price, scalable, useful for Malops detections, and helpful for layered defense
We are not satisfied with their support. We are facing some challenges. They should be proactive, but we have to chase them a lot. This is where there is room for improvement. They should be proactively serving their customers. We had some batch update issues, and we're still working on them. We are almost there, but it took a couple of email exchanges in order to achieve it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"From a security efficacy point of view, I have not seen anything that's been as good as CrowdStrike and I've seen a lot them."
"The staff's expertise from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR has helped me because they spend more time analyzing threats than I am able to do and they can qualify incidents better than I can."
"Comparing the stability of the solution to other similar products it is at the top."
"Overall, I am very satisfied with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR."
"It is a cloud-based solution. You can easily scale it."
"CrowdStrike has improved our meantime to closure on incidents by enabling us to have more contextual awareness for each of the detections, providing a much richer and broader scale of intelligence to each of the incidents and detections."
"If there is something wrong or not normal in the endpoint CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very responsive."
"Falcon's threat intel is strong, and the solution allows our customers to automate their site intelligence. We can integrate Falcon X with the other platforms we use, like FireEye, Insight, Cybertech, and Kaspersky."
"It has a lot of things for Malops detections."
"It helps us in layered defense, and if one of the other products does not capture what we require, it comes up in Cylance and vice versa, helping the overall security posture of the organization."
 

Cons

"The technical support is good. However, the technical support is outsourced to India which causes some language barriers. I am not sure if this is still an issue, they might have allotted more suitable representatives."
"We find CrowdStrike Falcon Complete to have a steeper learning curve when it is deployed in certain industries such as finance and retail."
"I want better integration with other security solutions; integrating with third-party apps wasn't as seamless as I expected."
"I think having a personal point of contact and not changing agents for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR would be good."
"In my opinion, CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR can be improved by reducing the requirement for us to build a lot of the policies ourselves, as it would help a lot if there were more of those policies out of the box that we can leverage right away instead of developing them over time; I believe there should be a common denominator of policy that could be suggested at implementation time."
"Some dashboards can be very complex, but once you get to know them, it is very logical."
"The simplicity of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete's content control and firewall management should be improved."
"It really is an expensive product in the South African market. And they need people in our country. Their partner program isn't yet where it should be. They need a lot of work and there's a lot of improvement needed."
"Their support needs improvement. We have to chase the Customer Success Manager a lot to get things done. It should have more features in terms of portability. It should be more scalable on other endpoints such as mobile devices and BYOD."
"We are not satisfied with their support. We are facing some challenges."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This product is one of the more expensive ones on the market."
"At approximately €60 per machine, per year, I think that it's a good price point."
"There is a standard license to use CrowdStrike Falcon Complete."
"CrowdStrike offers training at an additional cost, so many organizations wouldn't want that route."
"The pricing could be lower."
"There is a license for this solution and everything is included. However, The price of the could be lower."
"The price is okay, although you're not going to get away cheap when it comes to security."
"We pay $50,000 for the 200 endpoints we have."
"Its price is reasonable, but there are other products that are cheaper than this."
