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.
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

"Two of the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete are the remote terminal and unlimited IoCs."
"The continuous improvement in detections and response times is valuable. They are more focused on threats that come from the cloud, not only that we see."
"EDR and Next-Generation Antivirus (NGAV) are good features. The Spotlight feature is also good, and it also can detect patching-related vulnerabilities."
"I am not a CrowdStrike fanboy, but as an IT leader, they make my life easy. I like proactive monitoring and remediation, so I do not have to guess or run around. They are doing everything for me."
"It is very easy to manage the licenses centrally because these are cloud licenses. There is no need for manual data reports."
"CrowdStrike side, Falcon is the Endpoint Detection, Overwatch is the service that sits behind it. From a human point of view looks at the anomalies that normal AI and machine learning couldn't catch. So it is the combination of the two that really works well."
"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."
"The threat intelligence of CrowdStrike Falcon is the most valuable feature."
"The stability is very reliable."
 

Cons

"The solution should be lighter because it currently uses a lot of computing sources."
"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."
"At the moment, nothing is missing in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. I'm amazed by it. It's perfect and I'm not aware of any other vendors that provide its features, but it would also depend on the configuration and policy management of the solution, for example, I can bring you an EDR solution and configure it badly, so it won't do anything. It also depends on the people, not just the technology you're obtaining, so this is the most important thing to do for all solutions, even for firewalls. You can obtain a firewall and if you permit everyone to go through it, then it's useless. What could be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is its management console. Currently, that console is on the cloud, so if the cloud is compromised, then the management console would also be compromised, and that's quite risky."
"As of recent, their MITRE scores were not as good as in years past."
"The reporting could be better. It's not as good as it could be."
"Crowdstrike could be cheaper. It's pricier than Carbon Black."
"We have a problem with the CrowdStrike Falcon Complete agent. It was closing the communication with the network or other computers."
"Their UI is a bit noisy."
"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

"The price of this solution is expensive compared to others solutions."
"The licenses are sold per user."
"While the cost is relatively high, it is justified by the value it brings."
"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."
"We pay $50,000 for the 200 endpoints we have."
"I think the pricing is a little high."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is one of the more expensive security protection solutions."
"Pricing is reasonable."
