Easy to set up with good behavior-based analysis but needs a single-click recovery option
Most organizations are currently looking for a scheduled scan to meet their compliance needs. Other players like Symantec and Trend Micro, FireEye, et cetera, are still providing the signature-based regular scheduled scans also, which is not available in CrowdStrike. That is one parameter that we feel should be there in CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike is only working on the dynamic or the files under execution. CrowdStrike is not scanning the static files. The product could be more accurate in terms of performance. We'd like to have a single-click recovery option. With some machines getting corrupted by malware, we need an easy way to start with a blank slate if things happen. That one feature should be there in the EDR.

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 initial setup is a very fast process."
"The most valuable aspects of CrowdStrike Falcon for me are its device observability, identification, and software and OS recognition."
"It helps to prevent unauthorized access or identity theft from external sites. If your identity is stolen, you can ban it."
"The solution's reporting console is phenomenal, and I can get a lot of data out of it."
"We haven't had any infections or down time."
"It has definitely minimized resources. When everything was on-prem, there was a lot more work maintaining it. One of the big value tickets: I don't have lists of hundreds of exceptions for certain applications that I have to maintain, add, delete, and move. The very nature of the product has lessened my workload considerably."
"Easy to use, intelligent, and stable threat detection software."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's most valuable feature is the fact that it's not getting in the way of our workforce and their workflow."
"Integration is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"The management of log aggregation is in need of improvement."
"I have experience with a product called SentinelOne, which has a feature that allows for the customization of query languages. I would like to see such a feature for CloudStrike."
"I would rate it an eight out of ten. It does what it needs to do but there's always room for improvement."
"They should provide us with good visibility for everything."
"Crowdstrike Falcon XDR can improve the integration. There are some locks on the cloud to on-premise integrations."
"Falcon could include more integrative features."
"In a future release, I would like to see more integrations for data breaches and security features."
"The solution should have included remote wipe capability out of the box."
"I would like a more universal search."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced."
"The pricing could be reduced. If it was more reasonable that would be great."
"I do not have experience with the cost or licensing of the product."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's price is good."
"When it comes to licensing, customers can choose a bundle or select licences based on the specific features they would like access to. This solution comes with premium pricing. It is approximately 20 to 30% more expensive than competing solutions."
"In my opinion, the pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon seems aggressive."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive than other EDR solutions with similar features."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive."
