Room For Improvement

Users desire improved dashboard functionality, integration, machine learning, and interface enhancements with cost-effective options for better threat management.
LogRhythm SIEM needs better third-party integration, ease of use, performance enhancements, superior support, and improved scalability and cloud integration.
Threat prevention should be their first priority.
Another concern is CrowdStrike's GUI. It changes annually, making it hard to work and find options.
Simplifying the querying process, such as using double quote queries or directly obtaining logs based on IP addresses or usernames, would be beneficial.
A more user-friendly user interface with drag-and-drop features, similar to key competitors like Splunk, would be beneficial.
 

Setup Cost

CrowdStrike Falcon is pricier than competitors but valued for strong security, flexible features, and excellent support.
LogRhythm SIEM offers competitive, transparent pricing with flexible licensing and premium enterprise features, justifying its higher cost.
It is expensive compared to SentinelOne, but as the market leader, it is worth it.
The license cost is around $10 per MPS.
 

Valuable Features

CrowdStrike Falcon excels with real-time threat detection, cloud-native flexibility, and seamless integration, enhancing endpoint security and management.
LogRhythm SIEM offers AI-driven threat detection, easy dashboards, compliance reporting, and scalable log integration for enhanced network security.
I can investigate by accessing the customer's host based on the RTR environment and utilize host search to know details for the past seven days, including logins, processes, file installations, malicious processes, and network connections.
The moment the user clicked on the file, it was quarantined thanks to CrowdStrike.
The machine learning behavior for anomaly detection is a valuable feature.
The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient.

Chintan-Vyas - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to set up with good behavior-based analysis but needs a single-click recovery option
Most organizations are currently looking for a scheduled scan to meet their compliance needs. Other players like Symantec and Trend Micro, FireEye, et cetera, are still providing the signature-based regular scheduled scans also, which is not available in CrowdStrike. That is one parameter that we feel should be there in CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike is only working on the dynamic or the files under execution. CrowdStrike is not scanning the static files. The product could be more accurate in terms of performance. We'd like to have a single-click recovery option. With some machines getting corrupted by malware, we need an easy way to start with a blank slate if things happen. That one feature should be there in the EDR.
Mokhammad Rakhman - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly dashboard and machine learning capabilities improve threat hunting efficiency
LogRhythm SIEM has strong machine-learning capabilities with behavioral rules and analysis. The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient. Analytics and behavioral analysis help me save time with rule creation. Its scalability allows me to add components as needed. Overall, LogRhythm SIEM offers end-to-end visibility with a reasonable price.
