Waleed Omar - PeerSpot reviewer
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 setup, highly stable and scalable and efficiently tracks threat actors and analyze their tactics
We use Group-IB Threat Intelligence to help us with threat hunting, incident response, and vulnerability management We have found the site intelligence features to be the most valuable. We are able to use these features to track threat actors and analyze their tactics, techniques, and procedures…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cyberattack detection is very good. We use it for detecting different vulnerabilities, such as ransomware, virus, and malware. It is a good product today when compared to Symantec that we used previously."
"The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon are the AI in detecting and real-time detections."
"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."
"The ability to execute real-time response, or, that you can connect to the agent and see exactly what processes are operating, is the most important feature of this solution."
"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."
"CrowdStrike enables the infrastructure managers to visualize all the events and get information about the network."
"Scalability hasn't been an issue for us."
"EDR is effective in CrowdStrike."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the sandbox."
"Threat Intelligence's best feature is threat activation."
"The totality of the recordings is quite important. The networks, the new threat actors, the new methods, tactics, techniques, and procedures."
"We have found the site intelligence features to be the most valuable."
"The most valuable Group-IB Threat Intelligence features are their detections, especially in terms of account and card information leakage. This data sets Group-IB apart from some of the competition."
 

Cons

"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."
"The biggest issue with Falcon as a standalone product is it doesn't have very much reporting."
"Some of Falcon's features are a bit pricey."
"CrowdStrike Falcon sometimes wrongly flags things as malicious. Let's say a user is active on Chrome only. Sometimes, our cross-segmenting will fetch from the backend data and show that it is malicious because of memory or CPU utilization."
"Falcon could include more integrative features."
"It would be nice if the dashboard had some more information upfront, and looked a little better."
"CrowdStrike should add support for ransomware protection."
"The support for different OS versions needs improvement because sometimes due to business conditions, updating our OS is impossible."
"The web intelligence could be improved. It is not as good as the intelligence from other solutions."
"Threat Intelligence's OT security could be improved."
"Group-IB Threat Intelligence should improve integration for SIEM and SOAR solutions."
"The lack of appliance-based or on-premise options for this solution is its biggest downfall. Clients request them often."
"As the landscape evolves, they could provide a little more detail or specificity to map it to the MITRE ATT&CK framework."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"With respect to pricing, my suggestion to others is to evaluate the environment and purchase what you need."
"Pricing and licensing seem to be in line with what they offer. We are a smaller organization, so pricing is important. Obviously, we would make a business case if it is something we really needed or felt that we needed. So, the pricing is in line with what we are getting from a product standpoint."
"There is no license required to use this solution."
"I am not aware of the price, but I believe that it is among the most expensive XDRs out there. Of course, this is dependent on the features you choose. Depending on the features, the price might increase."
"While CrowdStrike Falcon offers significant security benefits, its high price point might make it prohibitively expensive for many small and medium-sized businesses, including companies like ours."
"CrowdStrike Falcon can be more expensive than some competitors, and its base price doesn't cover every feature."
"The pricing will depend upon your volume of usage."
"Group-IB Threat Intelligence's pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing is alright. It's right on the mark."
"Threat Intelligence is costly, but it gives value for money."
