Its scalability is good.
In terms of scalability, I find CrowdStrike to be stable, and I have not encountered any limitations with it.
When it comes to scalability, it is entirely based on premium models according to demand.
LogRhythm SIEM is highly scalable as it has modular components allowing me to expand storage, indexing, or other resources as needed.

CrowdStrike Falcon offers stable, reliable performance across environments, managing endpoints effectively despite minor update challenges and connectivity issues.
Sentiment score
5.0
LogRhythm SIEM is generally stable and reliable, with improvements and effective support despite occasional hardware and high log volume issues.
I have never seen instability in the CrowdStrike tool.
We are following N-1 versions across our environment, which is stable.
I find CrowdStrike to be stable; there are no issues, although there was one instance when we had an outage for updating the Falcon Agent.
The platform needs regular updates to fix problems encountered with each quarterly patch and version release.
 

Room For Improvement

CrowdStrike Falcon users seek better third-party integration, intuitive UI, threat detection, support, pricing, and forensic tools.
LogRhythm SIEM needs better third-party integration, ease of use, performance enhancements, superior support, and improved scalability and cloud integration.
Simplifying the querying process, such as using double quote queries or directly obtaining logs based on IP addresses or usernames, would be beneficial.
False positive reductions are needed.
Another concern is CrowdStrike's GUI. It changes annually, making it hard to work and find options.
A more user-friendly user interface with drag-and-drop features, similar to key competitors like Splunk, would be beneficial.
 

Setup Cost

CrowdStrike Falcon provides robust security at premium pricing, with flexible licensing but may be costly for some businesses.
LogRhythm SIEM offers competitive, transparent pricing with flexible licensing and premium enterprise features, justifying its higher cost.
It is expensive compared to SentinelOne, but as the market leader, it is worth it.
The license cost is around $10 per MPS.
 

Valuable Features

CrowdStrike Falcon provides advanced, efficient threat protection with AI capabilities, ease of management, and comprehensive detection and prevention features.
LogRhythm SIEM offers AI-driven threat detection, easy dashboards, compliance reporting, and scalable log integration for enhanced network security.
I can investigate by accessing the customer's host based on the RTR environment and utilize host search to know details for the past seven days, including logins, processes, file installations, malicious processes, and network connections.
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.
CrowdStrike has improved our incident response capabilities.
The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient.

Chintan-Vyas - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Mokhammad Rakhman - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly dashboard and machine learning capabilities improve threat hunting efficiency
LogRhythm SIEM has strong machine-learning capabilities with behavioral rules and analysis. The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient. Analytics and behavioral analysis help me save time with rule creation. Its scalability allows me to add components as needed. Overall, LogRhythm SIEM offers end-to-end visibility with a reasonable price.
