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.

Protects the global station and has good stability
The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station The solution's integration with the Windows environment could be better. The solution needs better integration with products, if it did, it would have the assumption of better security. I've been using the solution since…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The malware protection is the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"I value the overall behavior analysis of CrowdStrike. The engine of this product is what drew us to this solution."
"I like the Overwatch feature the most."
"The CS falcon agent is a lightweight agent compared with other agents of EDR products."
"I have found the connection to search the hosts for detections very useful in CrowdStrike Falcon."
"The best benefit of CrowdStrike Falcon is 99% MITRE coverage."
"It helps to prevent unauthorized access or identity theft from external sites. If your identity is stolen, you can ban it."
"CrowdStrike is a great solution."
"The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station."
 

Cons

"In the future release of CrowdStrike Falcon, they should add a sandbox feature."
"The content-filtering features for children could be improved. We have young grandchildren aged 12 and 8. My daughter, their mother, wants to keep them from getting in trouble on the net. She looked at all these other solutions from Google, Microsoft, etc., and she couldn't figure out how to make any of those work. I told her that I bet CrowdStrike could handle this. Sure enough, CrowdStrike can do exactly that. It's the same solution that the Defense Department gets. It works, but it's a little complicated to implement. It could be simpler to set the policies."
"I would rate it an eight out of ten. It does what it needs to do but there's always room for improvement."
"I don't think anything is missing in CrowdStrike Falcon, but if they can manage their SOC solution instead of users or the end users or customers doing that, it will be very useful, just as Sophos does."
"Too many false positives."
"I would like to see equal support across all versions. Aside from that, I would say most of the features are there."
"There are some aspects of the UI that could use some improvement, e.g., working in groups. I build a group, then I have to manually assign prevention policies, update policies, etc., but there is no function to copy that group. So, if I wanted to make a subgroup for troubleshooting or divide workstations into groups of laptops and desktops, then I have to manually build a brand new group. I can't just copy a build from one to another. Additionally, in order to do any work within a group, I have to first do the work on the respective prevention policy page or individual policy page, then remove the group if the group is assigned to a different prevention policy, remove the prevention policy, and then add the new one in. So, it can get a little hectic. It would be easier if I could add and remove things from the group page rather than having to go into the policy pages to do it."
"For CrowdStrike to work, all the machines need to have an internet connection. This makes it challenging to assist customers without an internet connection. We would like to have a mechanism or relay to make this possible."
"The solution's integration with the Windows environment could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced."
"The more endpoints an organization adds the cheaper the cost."
"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."
"When comparing to Microsoft, CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive."
"The other administrator and I can log in to check the exact details of what happened, what was running, and what caused the detection. We know exactly what was happening on the end users PC and we can tell if it's something that we actually need or something that's malicious."
"There are three to four licensing models available to choose from for CrowdStrike Falcon. The price of CrowdStrike Falcon depends on the distributor and the reseller partner. The price we received was good."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive than other EDR solutions with similar features."
"CrowdStrike is a reasonably priced tool."
