Useful search host detection, simple to scale, and great support
Pros and Cons
  • "I have found the connection to search the hosts for detections very useful in CrowdStrike Falcon."
  • "The solution could improve by providing more types of reports because it's in the detection span you cannot re-export anything. If it could be exported to a CSV file directly there it would help a lot. I currently need to do this by API to get what I need."

What is our primary use case?

I am using CrowdStrike Falcon for network protection. We have government customers.

What is most valuable?

I have found the connection to search the hosts for detections very useful in CrowdStrike Falcon.

What needs improvement?

The solution could improve by providing more types of reports because it's in the detection span you cannot re-export anything. If it could be exported to a CSV file directly there it would help a lot. I currently need to do this by API to get what I need.

In the next release, it would be beneficial to have a DLP or CASB solution.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon for approximately one year.

The agents are deployed on every workstation, so policy changes can be enforced on all of them
Pros and Cons
  • "CrowdStrike is deployed on every workstation, so policy changes can be enforced on all of them. It lowers the manual work on each of the workstations. It has helped us manage device usage in our environment."

    What is our primary use case?

    We use Falcon to check the login attempts of the users. We can see who has logged in and when. We can see which workstation is assigned to each user. CrowdStrike helps us enforce policies, such as USB policies and users recycling passwords. 

    How has it helped my organization?

    CrowdStrike is deployed on every workstation, so policy changes can be enforced on all of them. It lowers the manual work on each of the workstations. It has helped us manage device usage in our environment. 

    What is most valuable?

    I like CrowdStrike's policies. The integration is easy to do. I can remember once when Falcon prevented a security breach occurred because someone clicked on a phishing link, and their credential was compromised. We used threat tracking to isolate the device from networks.

    I rate Falcon nine out of 10 for stability.

    A very good solution useful for next-gen AV but tighter integration of XDR could be included
    Pros and Cons
    • "The initial setup was straightforward."
    • "Tighter integration around XDR could be included."

    What is our primary use case?

    We primarily use this solution for AV, next-gen AV, EDR or XDR.

    What is most valuable?

    I find most of the features to be very generic.

    What needs improvement?

    The solution is very good but tighter integration around XDR could be included. There are a lot of open integrations, but they are external factors that cause dependencies on the integrator, not really on CrowdStrike, so it's a bit of a challenge as there is no comprehensive solution. Additionally, the solution is dependent on Windows technical support.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    We have been using CrowdStrike Falcon for approximately three years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    The solution is stable.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    The solution is scalable, but price and support are a bit of a challenge.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    We previously used different solutions, and the primary differentiating factor was marketing.

    How was the initial setup?

    The initial setup was straightforward.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    The price is high in comparison to similar brands.

    What other advice do I have?

    I rate the solution a seven out of ten. I advise new users first to understand their use case, its vulnerability and its importance.

    Has great threat intelligence, integrates well, and scales to our needs
    Pros and Cons
    • "The threat intelligence is the most valuable feature."
    • "The support for different OS versions needs improvement because sometimes due to business conditions, updating our OS is impossible."

    What is our primary use case?

    We use CrowdStrike Falcon as an XDR to replace our old antivirus solution.

    We implemented CrowdStrike Falcon for better visibility into our environment and easy online access to the policies.

    How has it helped my organization?

    CrowdStrike Falcon's cybersecurity background allows for better integration with other tools.

    What is most valuable?

    The threat intelligence is the most valuable feature.

    What needs improvement?

    The support for different OS versions needs improvement because sometimes due to business conditions, updating our OS is impossible. For example, I have a production environment connected to the PNC that runs Windows XP on computers that CrowdStrike Falcon does not support.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon for six years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    CrowdStrike Falcon is stable.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    CrowdStrike Falcon has been able to scale to our needs with no issues.

    How was the initial setup?

    The initial deployment was straightforward. The deployment took one day to complete. Ten people were involved in the deployment.

    What about the implementation team?

    The implementation was completed in-house.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    CrowdStrike Falcon's price is good. I am looking for other partners and compared to Microsoft Defender and other vendors the price is lower.

    What other advice do I have?

    I would rate CrowdStrike Falcon a then out of ten.

    Before purchasing CrowdStrike Falcon I suggest checking the policies, particularly those regarding internet connections, and conducting a proof of concept.
