Muhammad  Fahad - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhanced security team efficiency and proactive threat management with room to improve alert management and cost-efficiency
There are several issues we are facing with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR, including data overload, noise, and false positive alerts. We experience alert fatigue, contextual gaps, integration complexity, and timeliness of intelligence challenges in our environment. Areas that should be improved include noise reduction, prioritization, real-time delivery, and advanced threat coverage. The filtering algorithm should be improved to address these concerns.
MiguelPurizaca - PeerSpot reviewer
Reliable with great technical support and excellent alerts
The solution would be better if there was some kind of integration with network equipment so that we can also have visibility of everything related to the firewall or the routers or switches - not only the computers but also on other network equipment. If they could provide a solution for smartphones and for tablets that would be very helpful as we have some people accessing information from these types of devices. It could improve the security in terms of coverage as we both computers and mobile phones or tablets in use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I would recommend Falcon Complete for anyone looking for a cheaper alternative that's almost the same quality as Cortex."
"It's a stable application. It is one of the most stable out of all the other market applications, especially if you're talking about within the EDR platform."
"We have experienced ROI using this solution. The value is clear when you are able to stop a ransomware attack or other threats."
"It's not a signature-based solution, which is ideal for us."
"The endpoint detection and response is very valuable."
"It is a major anti-malware solution. It can stop zero-day attacks and ransomware attacks. There are so many features in CrowdStrike. Falcon Overwatch is a valuable module. It is lightweight on the endpoints. It doesn't have any scanning mechanism. It works on artificial intelligence, static analysis, and dynamic analysis. There is no signature available on this. It is a pretty easy solution. It is cloud-based, so there is no driver maintenance or anything like that. You can go anywhere in the world. If you have internet, you'll get connected to the cloud and the policies that it contains. It is pretty simple."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"What I found most valuable in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is that it has a lot of monitoring dashboards and use cases, and I saw that it's a very good product, but my company has only tested it, so it's not been used for real use cases. My company hasn't tested the complete license for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete, so the team hasn't checked the open fiber rooms for zero-day attacks, IOAs and IOCs, or any indicators of fraudulent activities. I was also amazed at the solution and its licensing. My company did a competitive analysis of many EDR solutions, but it went with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. It's one of the top-rated solutions on CyberRatings as well."
"The stability is very reliable."
 

Cons

"It has a lot of false positives, which can be an issue, but you can verify these false positives."
"We have a problem with the CrowdStrike Falcon Complete agent. It was closing the communication with the network or other computers."
"What could be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the threat hunting feature and the insights it provides, in particular, the variable analysis feature. Protection against zero-day threats and sandboxing could also be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. If you compare it with other solutions, it can go head-to-head, but the features I mentioned still need improvement."
"Its support should be improved. The product is amazing, but the problem is that their support team is overconfident about the product. If something happens, they don't listen. They keep arguing with the customer. It should have more reporting. Reports are not that customizable. We need customizable reports for our customers, but they not there in CrowdStrike as well as SentinelOne."
"I prefer to put a pound into the prevention and an ounce into the cure, but CrowdStrike put more focus into the EDR. This works as a business model for them, as they get a lot of customers purchasing their MDR services, usually SMBs lacking the staff to leverage the EDR tool themselves adequately. We have many such customers. I would much rather see more refinement and investment into the prevention side of the equation, though CrowdStrike has a good engine. The solution is as effective as SentinelOne and Windows Defender for Endpoint; it's an excellent endpoint protection solution."
"The licensing is a bit complex."
"The solution needs to have human involvement, they could improve by having more automation where the solution can take the necessary action on time and more accurately."
"It would be nice to have full-scale ESR reporting."
"If they could provide a solution for smartphones and for tablets that would be very helpful as we have some people accessing information from these types of devices."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CrowdStrike offers training at an additional cost, so many organizations wouldn't want that route."
"There is an annual subscription."
"Falcon Complete isn't too pricy."
"The licensing cost for this solution is $5000 per license, with each machine requiring its own license."
"There is a license needed to use the solution. The price of the solution is fair."
"This product is one of the more expensive ones on the market."
"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."
"The price is okay, although you're not going to get away cheap when it comes to security."
