Provides effective real-time threat detection with potential for cost optimization
Some features such as device control, firewall management, and file analysis are standalone products that we need to purchase separately. If these features came out of the box within the product, it would be much more beneficial for us. Other providers such as SentinelOne include these features in their base product. We attended a CrowdStrike Falcon event where they discussed some shallow AI features, but we cannot see these in our panel yet. We work with different solutions such as Darktrace and SocRadar, where AI features are automatically displayed in our dashboards after release. However, for CrowdStrike Falcon, we cannot see these features.

Easy to deploy, scalable, but the UI needs work
We use the solution for LLC merchants, threat advisories, and research The solution is adding a more contextually rich and higher fidelity enrichment to our IOCs. Integration is the most valuable feature. The web front end of the UI is a bit clunky and has room for improvement. I would like a…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My advice for others is to purchase the solution it is simple to use and effective."
"This solution has made the lives of the IT staff much easier, compared to the previous one."
"We use it to monitor everything related to the activity and to block any malicious activity."
"Everything you need to know is right there in a single dashboard."
"The Insight feature is one we found the most useful."
"The solution is silent and sits on your system as one single agent."
"It has good features for threat detection."
"It is an easy product to deploy."
"Integration is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement in CrowdStrike Falcon could be the user interface and reports; it requires some improvements to be easily handled."
"The UI is not efficient."
"I think there's an opportunity to enhance the AI or at least the traps to say, if something changes from this baseline, let us know and flag it."
"The ability to receive text alerts natively in the console would be kind of cool."
"To simplify the budgeting process for our clients, CrowdStrike should consider offering bundled packages that include essential features."
"Setting up and installing CrowdStrike Falcon is not easy, so an area for improvement is for that process to be simplified."
"I have experience with a product called SentinelOne, which has a feature that allows for the customization of query languages. I would like to see such a feature for CloudStrike."
"The solution isn't known in my market. The brand isn't as recognizable. Their shortcomings are more on the marketing side."
"I would like a more universal search."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The other administrator and I can log in to check the exact details of what happened, what was running, and what caused the detection. We know exactly what was happening on the end users PC and we can tell if it's something that we actually need or something that's malicious."
"I do not have experience with the cost or licensing of the product."
"The tool is a little bit expensive compared to other products, but I think it's okay owing to its quality."
"All I can say about the licensing cost is that it's negotiable."
"When comparing to Microsoft, CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive."
"It is expensive compared to SentinelOne, but as the market leader, it is worth it."
"The solution's pricing is great for us."
"This solution offers annual subscriptions. The pricing for this solution could be reduced."
