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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."
"CrowdStrike enables the infrastructure managers to visualize all the events and get information about the network."
"As an EDR tool, we can integrate log management and event management. The solution deals with threats automatically, that's the advantage."
"The detection and response console is the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is very simple."
"The solution's most valuable feature is that it is robust and can detect almost every malicious activity that occurs within the endpoint."
"The threat intelligence is the most valuable feature."
"The detection is very reliable. Also, OverWatch is a great feature."
"It addresses environmental problems related to user authentication protocols like NTLM and ELSA."
 

Cons

"A year and a half ago or more, if you put in a support request by email, then it wasn't timely addressed. It could be a day to three days before you received a response, which was a bit frustrating. There was a lot of customer feedback around this issue, which has been greatly refined."
"I would also like to see the endpoint firewall component produce some level of logging and feedback."
"This solution is relatively expensive."
"Too many false positives."
"The console is not user-friendly or visually appealing and has room for improvement."
"The solution needs to have integration with on-premises security devices and security facilities. That means all the security products, including the perimeter firewall, the DMZ."
"There are some aspects of the UI that could use some improvement, e.g., working in groups. I build a group, then I have to manually assign prevention policies, update policies, etc., but there is no function to copy that group. So, if I wanted to make a subgroup for troubleshooting or divide workstations into groups of laptops and desktops, then I have to manually build a brand new group. I can't just copy a build from one to another. Additionally, in order to do any work within a group, I have to first do the work on the respective prevention policy page or individual policy page, then remove the group if the group is assigned to a different prevention policy, remove the prevention policy, and then add the new one in. So, it can get a little hectic. It would be easier if I could add and remove things from the group page rather than having to go into the policy pages to do it."
"The skillsets needed to run CrowdStrike Falcon are extensive if you want to get the most value out of the tool."
"The product's technical support services could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive product, but I think it is well worth the investment."
"We pay 40,000 dirhams per 100 users."
"The pricing is good and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"I would like them to further reduce the price, because it is quite pricey at the moment."
"The tool is a little bit expensive compared to other products, but I think it's okay owing to its quality."
"I'm not directly involved in sales, so I can't comment on the exact price, but I know the price decreases the higher the quantity we purchase."
"When comparing to Microsoft, CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive."
"Crowdstrike Falcon is relatively cheap."
