Worth the money, fantastic communication, and fast service with an average response time of about four minutes on an alert

This is my third SOC. I have never had anybody react as well. So, it's hard for me to provide something that they could do better because I'm really happy with them. I just signed another three-year contract with them. I don't find any downside to them, but if I have to put one, it would be consistent manpower or staffing. The only area where the solution can be improved is going to be with people. As they grow, they are struggling with the same thing that every other company is, which is getting talent and getting that talent to stay, but they've just revised their tiering system to go from a flat analyst and manager to a three-tier solution where it goes through two or three before it gets elevated. That seems to have worked out well, so if one level misses it, the next one picks it up, and it works out fine. Consistent staffing is the only challenge they have because when you're hiring level-one analysts, you go through them pretty quickly. You'll probably hire them at 50K or 55K, and after they do it for a year, they find out they can make 85K somewhere else, and they bounce. So, their turnover is a little high, but that's it.

Useful to monitor and track any suspicious activities

I rate the tool's deployment ease as five out of ten. In our situation, our team doesn't understand what it means to configure your solution properly. Because in the end, if any security solution isn't configured correctly, it won't provide optimal protection. So, it's very clear that we need to balance the gaps in our team's skills and what the vendors can do to cover those gaps for us. The tool's agents are deployed on-premises and connect to a very secure API to a cloud console. From the cloud console, you start managing and controlling the workstation configurations. Deployment took a few days because it included extensive orientation for our team members.

Helps improve our security posture, frees up IT staff time, and is stable

We use CrowdStrike Falcon Complete as our MSSP. We previously relied on antivirus products like Sophos and Malwarebytes, which seemed to function adequately. However, Sophos lacked centralized management, requiring our IT team to manually review over a hundred security notifications daily. This…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best part about Binary Defense MDR is that it runs on everything, and they keep an eye on things 24/7."

"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."

"The most valuable part of Binary Defense is its team of cybersecurity analysts. Their analysts filter out the noise and only forward the critical threats that require a response instead of false positives."

"In the six months we have been with Binary Defense on this, they run with the ball. They take care of our problems. When we get a ticket, they do not just give us a report."

"With Binary Defense, we don't just get an alert, but also a detailed rundown of why they're alerting us on it. They tell us what was executed, or the username, script, or IP. That way, we're not wasting time investigating."

"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."

"Our mean time to response has gone down. We're much faster with direct response and have more investigative capabilities than we did before."

"Binary Defense's most valuable feature is the 24/7 monitoring and threat hunting. Their team checks the latest breaches and how they're done."

More Binary Defense MDR pros

"The product is fairly new compared to others like Trend Micro or Symantec. However, it offers sophisticated features, especially in scanning and analyzing activities on workstations or servers. It can prevent malicious operations from spreading to other applications or the network. This feature is particularly effective because it operates at the IO level, unlike behavior or signature analysis used by other products. It contains threats and alerts administrators about whether they are false positives or real threats that need immediate action or support recommendations."

"One of the most valuable features is its around-the-clock, 365-day-a-year online technical support."

"The most valuable feature is the Managed Detection and Response."

"Falcon's threat intel is strong, and the solution allows our customers to automate their site intelligence. We can integrate Falcon X with the other platforms we use, like FireEye, Insight, Cybertech, and Kaspersky."

"It has good visibility, works well, and it is fast."

"The overwatch module is the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon."

"Its IOCs alerting mechanism is good. I think it is AI based and categorizes behaviors which are unusual."

"The stability is great for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete."

"It is an endpoint protection product. It has a very good reporting engine and dashboard. It has a good set of endpoint controls. It provides an effective set of protections. When we throw malware and stuff like that at it, it is able to stop them."

"If there is something wrong or not normal in the endpoint CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very responsive."

Cons

"The only area I see for improvement with Binary Defense is their service portal. It could benefit from some enhancements."

"The only area for improvement that I can think of relates to statistical analysis for SLAs. They are in the middle of moving to a new product called D3 which is going to do some backend work for them. I know they are working to improve some of the help desk statistics, such as the time the tickets open and the time they are closed."

"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."

"I would like to get more reports from Binary Defense about what they're blocking."

"The current reporting system could benefit from improvement."

"While my understanding is that they're working on this, I would like to see some more of the quantification or reporting."

"We found that an earlier version of the agent had high memory usage and that was a bit concerning, but we raised the concern with their support team and they immediately replied that they had noticed the same thing and had a candidate fix already available... it totally fixed the issue."

More Binary Defense MDR cons

"They should consider adopting the desktop version as a solution."

"I think having a higher level of MDR would be beneficial, although it's quite expensive. This would involve not just monitoring the network but also taking actions to stop and detect threats. We haven't implemented this yet, but we're considering it for our organization's plans."

"Its price and integration into a pre-existing process could be better."

"The analysis of the investigation of the incident could be easier."

"Their endpoint solution is excellent. But I would like to see them improve their HDR, as well as their DLP (Data Loss Prevention)."

"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete does not include patch management functionality."

"Like any other solution, a lower price would make CrowdStrike Falcon Complete more appealing."

"The solution needs to have human involvement, they could improve by having more automation where the solution can take the necessary action on time and more accurately."

"The licensing is a bit complex."

"When you enable a particular feature, it takes a long time, from 15 to 30 minutes, to implement in enterprise environments. This can be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's valued at the right price. Even with the number of endpoints we have, we don't feel that it's a lot more than any competitor. In fact, it might be less expensive when you look at the fact that you're getting a full flex SOC out of it along with the tools."

"Binary Defense MDR is priced competitively and may be slightly lower than CrowdStrike."

"The pricing is on target. Working with their sales team on pricing negotiations was a pleasant process. They were very respectful of the constraints we had and I feel that we're paying a fair price."

"From the initial cost that Binary Defense came in with, we pared it down quite a bit over the course of 30 or 60 days. My leadership would say that their cost was high, but realistically, they were in line with the market."

"Binary Defense has changed its pricing model from being primarily based on the volume of data to one based on escalations and incidents they handle."

"The solution's price is spot on; if anything, it's slightly below the norm for most services. Compared to building the same team internally, it would cost more to create the same amount of capability than what we get from an external team. Price-wise, Binary Defense is in a great spot."

"It has been good. We have saved money, and we have a better product."

"The pricing isn't that bad, it's very competitive. I don't feel that it's over-priced and I don't feel that it's under-priced."

More Binary Defense MDR pricing and cost advice

"The tool's pricing is high compared to other products. If you want to target a certain quantity, it should provide discounts to enterprises."

"The pricing falls within the moderate range."

"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very expensive in comparison to Bitdefender."

"CrowdStrike offers training at an additional cost, so many organizations wouldn't want that route."

"There is an annual subscription."

"Falcon Complete could be a bit cheaper."

"It is expensive, but looking at the capabilities that it brings, it is reasonable. There are no additional costs to the licensing costs. If you increase the number of licenses, support is included."

"The price is okay, although you're not going to get away cheap when it comes to security."

"CrowdStrike has a reasonable price."

"They are really reasonable for the services they are providing. When you add more endpoints, you are going to pay more for the license."
