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.
Nadeem Syed - PeerSpot reviewer
Quick response times enhance client satisfaction while managing multiple security features
On the financial side, it is quite expensive. If they could reduce the prices, it could attract more customers who are currently deterred by the cost. They need to improve their mobile device security solutions compared to competitors like Symantec or Kaspersky. They lack mobile device management features, despite offering security.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Crowdstrike has better support than Carbon Black."
"I find the incident management feature valuable because it identifies new types of viruses and sends an alert to the console administrator to check the hardware."
"Its machine learning and AI features are good."
"Endpoint protection is the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete at this moment."
"One unique thing that they offer is a breach warranty. We basically have a warranty of up to $100,000 should there be any breach that they're not able to manage."
"The real-time response features are valuable for us."
"Its ease of use is valuable. Nothing is left to you."
"The system is valuable as it is a fully managed endpoint protection service designed to stop breaches, detect threats, and respond to incidents effectively."
"The tool has significantly improved threat detection and response times for my clients' organizations. The solution has performed exceptionally well, and my customers are pleased with both the performance of the system and the support they receive."
"I appreciate the detection and response methodology used against virus and ransomware attacks."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Managed XDR is that it protects all of the layers."
"The features are such that MDR is a part of XDR, which includes different products."
"The initial setup is very straightforward. CIOs appreciate the ease of installation, server configuration, and the user-friendly dashboard."
"Trend Micro Managed XDR has indeed enhanced our customers' threat detection capabilities. Many of our clients are utilizing it and have experienced positive outcomes. Overall, I would recommend it, especially considering the rising popularity of Trend Micro and its excellent product support."
"The response time to any issues is very quick, providing a high level of client satisfaction."
 

Cons

"The support is good from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. We call them and we have a response immediately. They could improve by increasing their knowledge."
"It should be integrated with AI and ML."
"The solution is costlier compared to other solutions, which may be a concern for price-sensitive customers."
"Patch management in vulnerabilities needs improvement."
"Instead of a single dashboard with an overload of information, I favor a more user-friendly approach with an interactive dashboard."
"There have been some issues with Falcon Complete's performance."
"The biggest thing is to scan into your Office 365 environment, not from a cloud access security broker standpoint, but from the Secure Access Security Edge standpoint in protecting the Copilot ecosystem. Copilot has become more widely popular than I could have imagined. You need to back up and protect your Office 365 tools anyway, and Copilot is just a high sense of awareness."
"The performance slows down by between 10% and 40%, depending on what type of work the machine is doing."
"On the financial side, it is quite expensive."
"Being cost-effective is crucial, allowing customers with lower budgets to access the services. Offering a range of services at various price points ensures that customers can find suitable options without being compelled to explore alternative products or vendors."
"The product could benefit from some improvements in its interface and organization. Functionality-wise, it performs well, but there's room for enhancement in terms of user-friendliness. There are ample resources like documents and videos provided by most vendors to assist users, although reaching out for direct support might not always be straightforward."
"On the financial side, it is quite expensive. If they could reduce the prices, it could attract more customers who are currently deterred by the cost."
"The main drawback is the lack of local language support in Oman."
"Trend Micro Managed XDR could improve its support documents. This would allow us to explore the solution better and provide a better presentation to our customers. Addiontaally, there could be more automation features."
"There is a need for greater integration of non-Microsoft devices."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Falcon Complete isn't too pricy."
"While the cost is relatively high, it is justified by the value it brings."
"The licenses are sold per user."
"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."
"CrowdStrike offers solutions with the same functionality for both large enterprises and small to medium organizations with competitive pricing."
"CrowdStrike has a reasonable price."
"The price is okay, although you're not going to get away cheap when it comes to security."
"Trend Micro's solutions are considerably more expensive than competitors."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"There is a subscription needed to use Trend Micro Managed XDR. We are on an annual license."
"The solution's pricing falls within a reasonable range—it's not the most expensive option out there, nor the cheapest."
