Sachin Bode - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Manager at IFB Industries Ltd
Managed detection has strengthened our defenses and has provided real-time threat visibility
Sometimes we are facing performance issues with the end-user systems, and sometimes it is blocking a few of our applications, which we later resolve with the team. Recently, we were having our call center application running on the systems, which suddenly stopped working because CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR was not allowing it to run. After removing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR, it started working, and then later we added the application URLs and the communication URLs to CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR allow list, so it started working. Some processor utilization needs to be dropped because now Windows systems are consuming more CPU and RAM than earlier. Windows 10 was fine, but Windows 11 is consuming more CPU and RAM. If CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR is contributing to consuming the resources, then other applications are taking a lot of time to run. In Windows 11, we are facing this issue sometimes, and we need more powerful systems than earlier. I would also appreciate improvements on the pricing side. Some of our locations where people are isolated, we are not buying CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR due to the pricing. If there is a nominal reduction in the price, then we will go for everyone in the organization.

Quick response and reliable restoration enhance security operations
If the language barrier was addressed, it would lower the barrier for a number of German customers. It would take away a unique selling point for our own specialist managed service. I'm a bit hesitant, however, this would improve the product or the offering. Detection time already is very quick. The completeness of the offering was integrating more data. I am discussing with a customer who wishes to include identity data. Detecting early when someone tries to compromise your ID would be a nice feature.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My advice to anyone looking into implementing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is to go for it."
"The exposure management covers vulnerability management in discovery."
"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."
"The AI and the group knowledge base that they get from having multiple clients in the cloud is very useful to us."
"The Falcon Spotlight is a most valuable feature."
"Its machine learning and AI features are good."
"It's a stable application. It is one of the most stable out of all the other market applications, especially if you're talking about within the EDR platform."
"I like Falcon's AI functionality and vulnerability management. That has been so helpful. Falcon Complete can manage vulnerabilities, quarantine threats, and do all kinds of forensic incident analysis. It's a lightweight solution that only uses 1% of the CPU, which is a game changer. Other EDRs have had high CPU usage."
"Automated information on zero-day threats is provided without us needing to ask."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is endpoint management...The solution's support team is quite good at giving us feedback if there is an issue."
"The quick reaction and the ability to restore the state before within a short time are significant."
"The quick reaction and the ability to restore the state before within a short time are significant."
 

Cons

"Patch management in vulnerabilities needs improvement."
"People should be able to obtain training at any point of the engagement so that if somebody who doesn't have the basic knowledge is getting thrown into it, they are able to get trained, and CrowdStrike is able to help them out. CrowdStrike is really doing what they're supposed to be doing, but it is like anything else where they have to keep up on their research and development, or they'll fall behind. This is a fast-paced environment, and I've seen that vendors that were really good three years ago are terrible now. CrowdStrike is trying to stay ahead of the bad guys. They have AI. I have not had a problem with them missing anything. If they missed something, they should just make sure that they don't miss it again and understand why they missed it. I don't know if they did."
"It would be better if they offered other language options. It's only in English, and in Latin America, we mostly speak Spanish."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete could improve the threat visibility and have remediated vulnerabilities that they find."
"What could be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the threat hunting feature and the insights it provides, in particular, the variable analysis feature."
"The solution could use an on-demand scan feature."
"The support for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is not good. They take a very long time to respond, it takes 24 to 28 hours for them to get back to us."
"I prefer to put a pound into the prevention and an ounce into the cure, but CrowdStrike put more focus into the EDR. This works as a business model for them, as they get a lot of customers purchasing their MDR services, usually SMBs lacking the staff to leverage the EDR tool themselves adequately. We have many such customers. I would much rather see more refinement and investment into the prevention side of the equation, though CrowdStrike has a good engine. The solution is as effective as SentinelOne and Windows Defender for Endpoint; it's an excellent endpoint protection solution."
"If the language barrier was addressed, it would lower the barrier for a number of German customers. It would take away a unique selling point for our own specialist managed service."
"The interface, particularly the dashboard we use for looking at alerts, could be improved."
"If the language barrier was addressed, it would lower the barrier for a number of German customers."
"For every new client or every new case, my company has to spin up a new instance, because of which there is a new URL."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This product is one of the more expensive ones on the market."
"We pay 40,000 euros to use this solution."
"There is a license needed to use the solution. The price of the solution is fair."
"The licensing cost for this solution is $5000 per license, with each machine requiring its own license."
"The pricing is a little bit expensive for our region."
"We pay $50,000 for the 200 endpoints we have."
"They are really reasonable for the services they are providing. When you add more endpoints, you are going to pay more for the license."
"Its licenses are expensive for small-scale companies."
"Price-wise, Cybereason Managed Detection & Response is effective for larger companies, but if you have a small company with less than 1,000 employees, then it gets expensive."
