We performed a comparison between Alert Logic and CrowdStrike Falcon Complete based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Managed Detection and Response (MDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is reviewing tickets and the notes added by technicians."
"The case interface is Binary Defense MDR's most valuable feature."
"Binary Defense has a human service department that provides live monitoring for our systems."
"The customization has been the most valuable aspect and was really the reason we ended up selecting Binary Defense. They worked with us to provide exactly the level of support, features, response, and collaboration we needed."
"The speed at which their services are reactive is valuable. Nowadays, when a threat hits an endpoint, you've got minutes, not hours or days. Their average response time is about four minutes on an alert. For anything that needs to be sent to us, it's about fourteen minutes, which is pretty good. They're the third SOC that I've used in fifteen years. By far, they are the quickest ones to act. When you're looking at prevention, that's a key factor."
"The biggest aspect for us is that they are able to conform to our environment and utilize our tools. That way, we still maintain ownership of all the data and access to the applications, and we never lose control of the ability to run the solution ourselves if we need to."
"Among the valuable features are the agent, continuous reporting, and dashboard. It has all the features we need and we haven't had to customize it, other than turning on certain features that we wanted."
"One of the main benefits of Binary Defense MDR is the ability to easily meet with their support team to discuss any issues we encounter."
"The solution was consistently available, and I cannot recall any instances where it was down."
"Notifications and the detail of notifications are most valuable. It is a user-friendly solution."
"The installation and configuration were slick."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"We receive infrastructure security warnings from it. So, we know what is going on and what needs to be addressed."
"The quicker implementation of changes to our infrastructure from Alert Logic tell us if there are any problems."
"It is a very stable product."
"The most valuable aspect of Alert Logic is its technology platform. They have SOCs in the US and Europe, giving them global visibility of the threat landscape. They detect and respond to threats in minutes. Their biggest value is human expertise. You're being attacked by a human, and you cannot respond to it unless you have a human on the other side. They have the human and technological resources to respond."
"It has good security features."
"It is a major anti-malware solution. It can stop zero-day attacks and ransomware attacks. There are so many features in CrowdStrike. Falcon Overwatch is a valuable module. It is lightweight on the endpoints. It doesn't have any scanning mechanism. It works on artificial intelligence, static analysis, and dynamic analysis. There is no signature available on this. It is a pretty easy solution. It is cloud-based, so there is no driver maintenance or anything like that. You can go anywhere in the world. If you have internet, you'll get connected to the cloud and the policies that it contains. It is pretty simple."
"CrowsStrike Falcon Complete is a good solid endpoint protection solution; it has a good engine and is on par in terms of efficacy with SentinelOne, and with Microsoft Defender for endpoint protection."
"The most valuable feature is the Managed Detection and Response."
"The system is valuable as it is a fully managed endpoint protection service designed to stop breaches, detect threats, and respond to incidents effectively."
"The response service is the most valuable as it frees up our IT staff to focus on other tasks."
"As an end-point solution, nothing beats it, to be honest."
"There's less workload on the endpoint."
"I would like to see more frequent check-ins with our security status."
"If I were shopping for an MDR solution today, I would not only look for a company that has the ability to alert, detect, and remediate, but also the ability to integrate vulnerability management. That's a big thing that they're lacking today."
"Binary Defense MDR could be even better with additional features, like automatic scans and file quarantine."
"We should be able to isolate devices faster. They should shorten the time between clicking on a device to contain it and carrying out the action. That would be a welcome improvement."
"The most significant area for improvement is in support for non-English speakers; we're a global organization, so many of our users are not English speakers, which can make interacting with them a challenge. There's no Chinese language support, so we must rely on what we can do with the internet. We don't expect Binary Defense to build a language staff, but details can get lost in translation when we assume the whole world speaks English."
"I would like to get more reports from Binary Defense about what they're blocking."
"The current reporting system could benefit from improvement."
"It's hard to think of anything that they need to improve on, but just to point out something, I would like to see them provide advanced XDR."
"Could be more of an endpoint protector."
"The product needs to mature. We don't want to be bombarded with unnecessary issues and have the real ones slip through."
"As a user involved with the user interface, I believe there is a need to continue improving it based on feedback from our customers."
"They have ideas and email you whatever they find, but they don't have a dedicated security team who will work on an attack or a specific security instance."
"I would like to see it do initial scans and start capturing data, which it will truly analyze, not just be a reporting system saying, "Here is an email. Here is an email. Here is an email.""
"I would like more data on the alert payload. It would be good to have the ability to customize the alert payload to add whatever data that we want on there. Right now, it is a bit limited."
"Its menu is not very intuitive. I would like to see the user menu expanded a bit. The user menu is very layered, and because of the layers, you have to go down a path that is not very intuitive."
"The documentation, especially with the initial setup, needs improvement."
"The support is good from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. We call them and we have a response immediately. They could improve by increasing their knowledge."
"They need to continuously integrate with other security tools such as CyberArk or Mimecast, to cover the entire IT infrastructure."
"The solution is geared more towards larger organizations, so it can be difficult for organizations with smaller budgets to utilize the solution."
"This solution is lacking in a recovery feature. If there is a full compromise, this product can't recover the machine, which results in us having to rebuild the entire system."
"Falcon could use more SIEM capabilities, like a central place to monitor all our clients."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete does not include patch management functionality."
"I would like to see CrowdStrike Falcon Complete XDR integrate more effectively with other technologies."
"Like any other solution, a lower price would make CrowdStrike Falcon Complete more appealing."
