I can onboard a new customer in no time, freeing up time for my team to onboard as many as needed without it taking too much time.
Scalability is great; I would rate it a ten out of ten.
It scales with you.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.5
CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR is highly stable, reliable, efficient, and well-rated, with minor glitches quickly resolved.
Sentiment score
8.8
ThreatLocker Cyber Hero MDR is highly reliable, with users praising its stability and prompt threat resolution despite occasional training issues.
The solution is stable, like Falcon, and does not cause any problems for the agent to work with minimal memory.
I find that it is very stable; however, there is always room for improvement.
What's been wonderful about ThreatLocker is when we have found an issue and identified it, the entire team has taken those things seriously and gotten them remediated for us and our clients quickly, and more quickly than I've experienced with other vendors.
I would rate it around nine out of ten.
 

Room For Improvement

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR needs enhancements in reporting, integration, automation, user interface, and support to improve overall functionality.
Desirable features include integration, affordability, EDR improvements, better training, communication, patch management, third-party API support, and granular control.
Patch management in vulnerabilities needs improvement.
For UI/UX, it is good, but I think they should keep up with the times.
It is preferred that everything is seen under one tool rather than multiple platforms requiring multiple logins.
The Cyber Hero Support is not as effective as it is portrayed.
From an MDR perspective, the solution can have the ability to ingest logs from other sources, such as M365, firewalls, external sources, and even cloud SaaS-based platforms.
 

Setup Cost

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR is priced high but offers justified value with extensive security features and cost-saving options.
ThreatLocker Cyber Hero MDR is seen as competitively priced, offering good value, especially for larger companies, with flexible options.
Pricing is a bit high, with a minimum of 50 devices.
We would have been one of the biggest partners in Ireland, so we got pretty good pricing at the start, and it is still competitive.
We have an essential users package where we charge per head, and then we have an advanced security offering that we charge per head, and we've baked ThreatLocker into that advanced offering for our clients.
 

Valuable Features

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR offers AI-powered threat detection, real-time response, and seamless integration for comprehensive endpoint protection and ease of use.
ThreatLocker Cyber Hero MDR enhances security with application ringfencing, quick incident responses, and 24/7 monitoring, boosting trust and productivity.
We have achieved 100% success in detection with our clients and have no need for reclamation.
I find CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR to be effective and stable, with minimal false positives.
We've seen an 80% to 90% improvement in remediation.
There is a tremendous amount that is helpful, such as their recording, watching the systems, locking down the systems, and their training.
When the update rolled out for version 18, it was able to catch a 3CX Supply Chain attack where a client had downloaded a DLL file that was trying to steal the authenticated Office 365 or authenticated G Suite tokens.

Featured Reviews

Otis Brinson - PeerSpot reviewer
Helps users keep track of everything from one place
The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that we can track all of it in one place across all those different locations. Because it's cloud-based and reports up to the cloud, we also have access to the back end, and an incident response team monitors all incidents. We also have an escalation process in place. From my perspective, there are other pieces of CrowdStrike that the security architect team uses as well, but I don't get involved with those as much. I usually just wait for the end results or the notification if I need to get involved if there is an incident.
AP
Enables granular control through Ringfencing and works seamlessly for us as an MSP
The most valuable feature is ringfencing. It enables us to only allow what needs to be allowed into the environment and keep out anything else. It permits applications to perform without accessing anything they are not supposed to. For instance, if an application tries to utilize the command prompt unnecessarily, it blocks this action while still allowing users to operate the application. Being able to let the user or the customer continue to use that application but block the application from using the command prompt because it is not necessary is great. Being able to inform customers about enhanced security from a zero-trust standpoint has significantly improved our sales. We are able to walk up to a customer or call a new prospect and let them know that we are going to keep them secure at a level that they have not seen before. We are able to explain to them how cybersecurity works through it.
