Round-the-clock monitoring has freed our small team and improves our threat response focus
In terms of improvement for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR, they just keep going full steam ahead. The biggest room for a house is the room for improvement, but as of right now, I don't have any complaints about CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR. Additional features that should be included in the next release of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR would be on-demand scanning. That is something we have to do manually. For instance, if a user plugs in a USB device, even though in our environment we have USB devices locked completely, CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR will still read those devices even though they can't physically access them. If it does find malicious software, those are manually done still, and that's per the SLA. I have had a few of those that have come up, but those have been few and far between.

Reasonable price, scalable, useful for Malops detections, and helpful for layered defense
We are not satisfied with their support. We are facing some challenges. They should be proactive, but we have to chase them a lot. This is where there is room for improvement. They should be proactively serving their customers. We had some batch update issues, and we're still working on them. We are almost there, but it took a couple of email exchanges in order to achieve it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is very easy to manage the licenses centrally because these are cloud licenses. There is no need for manual data reports."
"One unique thing that they offer is a breach warranty. We basically have a warranty of up to $100,000 should there be any breach that they're not able to manage."
"Its ease of use is valuable. Nothing is left to you."
"It is a cloud-based solution. You can easily scale it."
"The most valuable feature is AML-based threat detection."
"The most valuable feature of Falcon Complete is that it is a full security operations center (SOC) as well as a SIEM solution, and it is fully managed."
"The solution is easy to deploy and manage."
"Technical support is helpful."
"It has a lot of things for Malops detections."
"It helps us in layered defense, and if one of the other products does not capture what we require, it comes up in Cylance and vice versa, helping the overall security posture of the organization."
 

Cons

"The reporting could be better. It's not as good as it could be."
"An MDM, Mobile Device Manager, should be added in the next release."
"The solution should be lighter because it currently uses a lot of computing sources."
"Of course, the cost is going to take a couple of years to get back after the initial cost investment."
"Most of the incidents that it has detected are false positives."
"I have found customer support to be fairly good but it could be quicker."
"I would much rather see more refinement and investment into the prevention side of the equation, though CrowdStrike has a good engine."
"It would be good if they fleshed it out a bit more, possibly with additional areas such as security awareness training. They could build that in. They're leveraging the same endpoint base that they have the security software on, but then they could offer a centralized portal or hub whereby someone like me could leverage it to track and put out security awareness training for people on all the common topics. I could have a centralized hub for everyone's results from that training and for the evidence that training occurred. It would be relatively straightforward, but it would add a lot for people in the compliance area. It would be a great expansion."
"We are not satisfied with their support. We are facing some challenges."
"Their support needs improvement. We have to chase the Customer Success Manager a lot to get things done. It should have more features in terms of portability. It should be more scalable on other endpoints such as mobile devices and BYOD."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a little bit expensive for our region."
"Its licenses are expensive for small-scale companies."
"This product is one of the more expensive ones on the market."
"Its price is very high. CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is 50% more expensive than Cisco AMP for Endpoints."
"CrowdStrike offers training at an additional cost, so many organizations wouldn't want that route."
"At approximately €60 per machine, per year, I think that it's a good price point."
"The average price is approximately $500 per customer."
"Falcon Complete could be a bit cheaper."
"Its price is reasonable, but there are other products that are cheaper than this."
