My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing was a traditional business venture where you go back and forth and ask for what you want. The only surprising piece for me was that there is a third-party vendor who we purchased from. I thought we would be dealing directly with CrowdStrike, and we were dealing with a third party that offered financing and handled all the contracts, and that is who we paid. I was prepared to write a check to CrowdStrike and it is not that way. That was the surprising piece. I will not say it is negative or positive, but that was the surprising piece. I thought it would all be consolidated.

My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing is great. They work with all of my vendors and resellers, or I could buy directly through the AWS marketplace. The purchasing process is extremely easy.
Regarding my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing, I can speak from different perspectives. At my previous employer, we were closer to a medium-sized business, and I could easily see the value of adding CrowdStrike Falcon. I can also discuss the perspective of smaller customers who find it challenging to motivate the acquisition of CrowdStrike Falcon due to higher pricing compared to other players in the field. However, we have been fairly successful so far. On bigger enterprises, there is a very easy way to show ROI and value in implementing CrowdStrike Falcon over a competitor.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for CrowdStrike Falcon was that pricing was very expensive, so much so that we could not justify onboarding it at first. However, after some back and forth with CrowdStrike representatives and getting quotes from other providers, CrowdStrike was willing to work with us to adjust some items included in the subscription contract and provided us a price that we could justify to our finance team.

I do not deal with pricing, setup costs, and licensing, but I know that it is approximately 60 dollars per endpoint at MSRP, and they make deals based on that. Our sales reps are pretty good, so we just let the sales rep talk to us, and they sold us on it right there.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that I was able to lower the price a bit by going from a one-year to a three-year contract, but it was still very expensive for the three-year commitment.
I do not directly handle the pricing, setup cost, and licensing, as we work with a partner team who handles the licensing and cost. I do not have to worry about it.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing has been good with no complaints. It has been really simple, and they have been very honest and willing to work with us.

My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing is beyond my knowledge at the organization level because I did not deal with any of that as far as the pricing goes.
The pricing typically depends on the number of endpoints and the features or modules selected. It is licensed per endpoint on an annual subscription basis. The pricing can vary depending on the subscription chosen. For example, the basic plan starts at a certain price per endpoint per year, while advanced plans with more features cost higher.
The pricing is very straightforward and negotiable. The license is thoughtful and very fruitful. The licensing is pretty simple, so it has a very good impact with the licensing, setup cost, and pricing with respect to CrowdStrike Falcon. Money is saved because if a user is receiving spam alerts or spam emails which are damaging the organization's privacy, the number of alerts, data threatening, DLP, data extraction, and everything has been reduced. There is a big impact on the organization's security posture as well as time saved while doing troubleshooting, allowing us to monitor that alert via one single console. The positive impact is significant, and the money saved is a very good effect for the organization.
The price is reasonable when comparing it to other tools. The license cost is typically per device. Based on the modules customers purchase, the cost will increase, as they have more than 28 to 32 modules.

I don't have much information about the setup costs, but it was manageable. CrowdStrike offers three or four packages depending on the company's size, and we purchased the most expensive one for better operations.

I would rate it a seven out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive because it's a bit on the costlier side. Compared to Symantec or Trend Micro, CrowdStrike is more expensive.
The price depends on the kind of service we need. If we need excellent service, we must pay a reasonable price. We can choose any pricing model if we do not want excellent service. The product is excellent. We need to pay a premium price for the tool.
