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.

High fidelity cyber incident detection is near in real-time, enabling proactive & timely mitigation efforts
The nature of the system means it has to be implemented throughout the organizations. You need to implement it on the network layer, the email layer, the web proxy layer, and also the endpoints. Nevertheless, endpoint monitoring is very challenging due to the lack of automated method to install the endpoint agents. In one of our customer case, we have about 40,000 endpoints and we need to have a simplified method of deployment if we're going to implement the endpoint monitoring effectively. Product features also need some improvement in creating custom signatures for detection because that is not open to customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's very easy to set up."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is effortless to use, and it's a cloud-specific platform. You only need to deploy the light agents on the licensed endpoints, and you're ready to work. Your dashboards will tell you the number of the endpoints being protected and the incidents. There are also incident dashboards with alerts that will tell you about the details."
"The UI is simple and self-explanatory. Everything is easy to understand."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon for me is its unified sensor, applicable across all models."
"The CS falcon agent is a lightweight agent compared with other agents of EDR products."
"This solution has made the lives of the IT staff much easier, compared to the previous one."
"I like the overall reports of this solution. They are crisp, and to the point."
"It helps to prevent unauthorized access or identity theft from external sites. If your identity is stolen, you can ban it."
"Great automatic correlation of all internal activities."
 

Cons

"I have worked with their technical support on several problems that were never fully resolved."
"Crowdstrike Falcon XDR can improve the integration. There are some locks on the cloud to on-premise integrations."
"They don't really have anything when it comes to scanning attachments."
"The performance could be better."
"Some of Falcon's features are a bit pricey."
"The dashboard area must be improved. We have integration with Splunk, and we are creating a dashboard there. Their dashboard area must be up to date. It should have more details and more options to create the reports and things like that."
"The biggest issue occurred when every computer worldwide experienced a blue screen."
"As the company has grown, the technical support has felt less personal."
"Monitoring the endpoint could be improved, it requires a huge effort."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CrowdStrike is well priced. On a yearly basis, it costs between $60 and $100 per user."
"The solution isn't very costly; it's affordable."
"We have a yearly subscription and find the price to be good. I'd give it a rating of four out of five for price, we got a good discount."
"CrowdStrike is a reasonably priced tool."
"I do not have experience with the cost or licensing of the product."
"The pricing will depend upon your volume of usage."
"The cost of CrowdStrike Falcon in Latin America seems high relative to the economic conditions in the region."
"In my opinion, the pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon seems aggressive."
