Provides effective real-time threat detection with potential for cost optimization
Some features such as device control, firewall management, and file analysis are standalone products that we need to purchase separately. If these features came out of the box within the product, it would be much more beneficial for us. Other providers such as SentinelOne include these features in their base product. We attended a CrowdStrike Falcon event where they discussed some shallow AI features, but we cannot see these in our panel yet. We work with different solutions such as Darktrace and SocRadar, where AI features are automatically displayed in our dashboards after release. However, for CrowdStrike Falcon, we cannot see these features.
Muhammad Fahad - PeerSpot reviewer
Security needs improvement and email scanning features are not included
The email scanning feature is not available in DeepArmor. We cannot use this for email scanning. There are many options that are not available in DeepArmor. We cannot use separate applications for different internet applications or for different internet scanning. This is why we cannot use it. I would like to see additional features such as email scanning, which should be included, or malware detections, and other cybersecurity features should be included. It could also be more secure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"CrowdStrike provides a lot of visibility in their tool."
"The most valuable feature is its threat analysis."
"The OverWatch is the most valuable feature to me. It's a 24x7 monitoring service, and when they see anything suspicious in my environment, they will investigate."
"CrowdStrike Falcon helps with endpoint protection by having very low memory utilization and processor usage, so it doesn't impact the computer system performance, and the computer system works very fast compared to all other endpoint protection solutions."
"The most valuable features are the complete IPS and IDS."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's scalability is good. We have thousands of students using this solution."
"The most valuable feature is that we don't need to re-image machines as much as we had to."
"I like the feature called RTC, the remote time connector."
"It is easy to install."
 

Cons

"The pricing is a bit too high."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve the EDR functionality. Once the functionality of the solution improves, it will be even better in the market and able to compete with Carbon Black."
"They need to strengthen the forensic capabilities of this product, for e-discovery."
"Forensic controls have room for improvement."
"CrowdStrike should provide better visibility in its reporting. There should be more forensic details about detected threats."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve by adding manual scanning or serverless scanning. It is not available at this time."
"I would like to see a little bit more in the offline scanning ability. This just comes from my background in what I have done in other positions. They only scan on demand, so I always have this fear that we sometimes maybe email out a dormant virus and can be held liable for that. That is something where I would like to see a little bit more robustness to the tool."
"There are some aspects of the UI that could use some improvement, e.g., working in groups. I build a group, then I have to manually assign prevention policies, update policies, etc., but there is no function to copy that group. So, if I wanted to make a subgroup for troubleshooting or divide workstations into groups of laptops and desktops, then I have to manually build a brand new group. I can't just copy a build from one to another. Additionally, in order to do any work within a group, I have to first do the work on the respective prevention policy page or individual policy page, then remove the group if the group is assigned to a different prevention policy, remove the prevention policy, and then add the new one in. So, it can get a little hectic. It would be easier if I could add and remove things from the group page rather than having to go into the policy pages to do it."
"The email scanning feature is not available in DeepArmor."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is fixed with no room for negotiation."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced."
"The pricing is definitely high but you get what you pay for, and it's not so high that it prices itself out of the market."
"The solution's pricing is great for us."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers excellent value for the money for our organization, particularly given our lean IT team."
"We are on an annual subscription for the solution. There are not any additional costs."
"The licensing model is straightforward. We choose the features we want and we then can download the package we want."
"It is expensive compared to SentinelOne, but as the market leader, it is worth it."
"There are licensing fees."
