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.

Easy to deploy, scalable, but the UI needs work
We use the solution for LLC merchants, threat advisories, and research The solution is adding a more contextually rich and higher fidelity enrichment to our IOCs. Integration is the most valuable feature. The web front end of the UI is a bit clunky and has room for improvement. I would like a…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform is very scalable."
"The biggest advantage of this solution for my customers is that it is a single solution that fulfills most of their security concerns while being easy to manage."
"The threat intelligence is the most valuable feature."
"The DLP is the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon for me is its unified sensor, applicable across all models."
"The key aspect of CrowdStrike Falcon is its behavioral detection approach."
"It is an easy product to deploy."
"The real-time analytics aspect of CrowdStrike performs well because we get all logs in real-time, with no delay, allowing us to take action immediately."
"Integration is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"I would love to see more investment in Insight because CrowdStrike have an opportunity to potentially displace some of the vulnerability management vendors with the visibility they can see over time. I want to see them continue to evolve, e.g., what other things can they disrupt which are operational things we have to continue to do as an organization."
"There are some areas where some customers would prefer a different service."
"Tighter integration around XDR could be included."
"As the company has grown, the technical support has felt less personal."
"As for stability, I would rate it around eight because last year they faced some downtime with around eight thousand computers, but it will improve."
"CrowdStrike should provide better visibility in its reporting. There should be more forensic details about detected threats."
"The malware analysis could be improved, as that's what we use the solution for the most and that change would make it a better EDR tool."
"I would like to see a more accurate integration and an option to check the local machine."
"I would like a more universal search."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The more endpoints an organization adds the cheaper the cost."
"When comparing to Microsoft, CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive."
"The tool is a little bit expensive compared to other products, but I think it's okay owing to its quality."
"The pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon is competitive."
"We pay 40,000 dirhams per 100 users."
"Different components are additional price points. We got the components that were right for us, but other organizations may require more (or less) components to suit their needs."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is one of the more expensive endpoint solutions on the market."
"CrowdStrike Falcon can be more expensive than some competitors, and its base price doesn't cover every feature."
