Featured Reviews

Cloud-native security has improved real-time threat detection and streamlined daily operations
While CrowdStrike Falcon is strong overall, there are a few areas where it could be improved. First, the user interface can be a bit complex for new users. Sometimes, navigating through different sections and understanding detailed alerts takes time, especially for teams without deep security expertise. The cost is also something to consider, as the features and additional modules can increase pricing, which may be a challenge for smaller teams. Additionally, some integrations with simpler reporting would be helpful. The onboarding process for new users is a bit challenging for beginners to understand all features and workflows in the product. More simplified documentation, step-by-step guides, and real-world examples could help new users get comfortable faster. A structured onboarding or basic training module would be very useful for teams who are new to endpoint security tools. In addition, having more in-product guidance and tooltips within the dashboard could make navigation easier and reduce the learning curve. Overall, improving training resources and onboarding support would make the platform more user-friendly, especially for new users.

AI-powered discovery enhances threat visibility while customer support excels
I am a reseller. One of our customers suffered an attack a few months ago, and they discovered that they have some data available on the deep and dark web. The biggest driver for using ThreatMon was takedown services. SIEM integration into their incident response was also essential. They wanted…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The CrowdStrike Falcon agent is very lightweight. Users never complain about their PCs getting stuck and things like that."
"The flexibility and always-on protection that is provided by a cloud-based solution are important to us; the cloud is everywhere, so with the agent on the laptop, wherever the user may go, including home, office, or traveling, it's protected 24x7, all the time."
"The endpoint and server management are the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"I like the overall reports of this solution. They are crisp, and to the point."
"Cyberattack detection is very good, we use it for detecting different vulnerabilities, such as ransomware, virus, and malware, and it is a good product today when compared to Symantec that we used previously."
"It's given me a level of confidence that my network is secure — the fact that it's not finding anything; however, I am not experiencing the issues that competitors are saying I should be experiencing."
"Using this solution has reduced my need for imaging. We can mitigate the issue and address it immediately, for people both on and off of the network."
"We find that the solution is very, very scalable as a tool and it can completely manage and protect the endpoint."
"I would recommend ThreatMon."
"Machine learning or AI discovery, which discovers our resources on the deep and dark web, has been very useful."
 

Cons

"The new interface, the UI, seems a bit messy."
"The console is not user-friendly or visually appealing and has room for improvement."
"The performance could be better. It's a bit slow."
"The malware analysis could be improved, as that's what we use the solution for the most and that change would make it a better EDR tool."
"As the company has grown, the technical support has felt less personal."
"CS Falcon sensing capabilities for non-domain machines should be enhanced since the agent doesn't detect the neighbor's IP Address and/or any anomaly which was identified in the network for the non-domain machine."
"It would be nice if they did have some sort of Active Directory tie-in, whether that be Azure or on-prem."
"For further improvements, I can only think of one example because this is very important for us; they could reduce the price. Then it would deserve a rating of seven."
"We are looking at a better pricing model to onboard as many customers as possible."
"ThreatMon is very expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution offers annual subscriptions. The pricing for this solution could be reduced."
"I do not have experience with the cost or licensing of the product."
"CrowdStrike Falcon can be more expensive than some competitors, and its base price doesn't cover every feature."
"The cost of CrowdStrike Falcon could be reduced. It is quite expensive if you compare it to other solutions, such as Blue Coat, Symantec, McAfee, or Kaspersky."
"The pricing is not bad. It's on the higher end of the market, but you get what you pay for."
"CrowdStrike is a reasonably priced tool."
"The pricing will depend upon your volume of usage."
"The price is high in comparison to similar brands."
