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.

Improves the threat intelligence gathering process, but it is not user-friendly
The tool is not user-friendly. It is not beginner-friendly. It would be very difficult for a beginner to learn the tool. It will take at least two months to get familiar with it. Building the playbook is a little difficult for a beginner. The vendor must simplify the tool and make it user-friendly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It helps to prevent unauthorized access or identity theft from external sites. If your identity is stolen, you can ban it."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has positively impacted my organization by providing good protection, logs, and reports, which I find very good."
"It's very easy to set up."
"The ability to remote into other devices for investigation and the way it presents a graphical representation of the detection, like the parent-child process, are valuable features."
"The product's deployment phase is easy."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has a ransom detection time of less than 50 seconds."
"The key aspect of CrowdStrike Falcon is its behavioral detection approach."
"The solution offers great stability."
"Integrating the solution with our existing security tools and workflows was easy."
"The reporting services are great. With reporting services, if you have customers that just visit a URL you can see the result - including why it's blocked and how and how the URL was first recognized as malicious."
 

Cons

"As for stability, I would rate it around eight because last year they faced some downtime with around eight thousand computers, but it will improve."
"I would like to see a more accurate integration and an option to check the local machine."
"Unfortunately, native applications are not supported."
"In the six months that I have been using CrowdStrike, it has not been able to detect anything."
"They respond quickly on the weekdays, but the weekend response times are slower."
"The solution needs to have integration with on-premises security devices and security facilities. That means all the security products, including the perimeter firewall, the DMZ."
"The detection time has room for improvement."
"CrowdStrike should provide better visibility in its reporting. There should be more forensic details about detected threats."
"The solution should be simpler for the end-user in terms of reporting and navigating the product."
"The tool is not user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced."
"The price is high in comparison to similar brands."
"Our company pays approximately US$ 65,000 annually for 900 machines."
"Crowdstrike Falcon is relatively cheap."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's price is good."
"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."
"The pricing could be reduced. If it was more reasonable that would be great."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive than other EDR solutions with similar features."
