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 most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is crowdsourcing intelligence."
"It's really good because it can detect anything."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon for me is its unified sensor, applicable across all models."
"The most beneficial part is the active response capability of the product."
"It's very easy to set up."
"The most beneficial features of CrowdStrike Falcon are that it is easy to install, easy to manage, lightweight, and it can stop breaches."
"The most valuable aspects of CrowdStrike Falcon for me are its device observability, identification, and software and OS recognition."
"From what we have seen, it is very scalable. We have recently acquired a company where someone had a ransomware attack when we joined networks. Within the course of just a few days, we were able to easily get CrowdStrike rolled out to about 300 machines. That also included the removal of that company's legacy anti-malware tool."
"Integration is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"I'm concerned about the recent issue that involved a faulty update."
"The solution should have included remote wipe capability out of the box."
"The management of the solution could improve."
"CS Falcon sensing capabilities for non-domain machines should be enhanced since the agent doesn't detect the neighbor's IP Address and/or any anomaly which was identified in the network for the non-domain machine."
"The installation process for this software needs to be simplified."
"The UI is not efficient."
"Threat prevention should be their first priority, and false positive reductions are needed."
"Tighter integration around XDR could be included."
"I would like a more universal search."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are at about $60,000 per year."
"The cost of CrowdStrike Falcon in Latin America seems high relative to the economic conditions in the region."
"All I can say about the licensing cost is that it's negotiable."
"CrowdStrike is a reasonably priced tool."
"It is an expensive product, but I think it is well worth the investment."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers excellent value for the money for our organization, particularly given our lean IT team."
"This solution offers annual subscriptions. The pricing for this solution could be reduced."
"It is expensive compared to SentinelOne, but as the market leader, it is worth it."
