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

"It's given me a level of confidence that my network is secure."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."
"As an EDR tool, we can integrate log management and event management. The solution deals with threats automatically, that's the advantage."
"The stability is very good."
"The solution's reporting console is phenomenal, and I can get a lot of data out of it."
"I like the dashboard nature of it. Everything is clickable, linkable, and information is easy to obtain and find. How it presents that information is probably the biggest win as far as the information correlation aspect. The presentation of it is very good."
"The managed services are distinguished, responsive, dynamic, flexible, and assertive when taking action."
"All the features are beneficial."
"The solution is easy to implement, and its reporting is great."
 

Cons

"Enhancements in reporting and forensic analysis could benefit the product."
"Any kind of integration that you want to do, such as using the API to connect to a SIEM, is complex and it will be expensive to do."
"The dashboard area must be improved. We have integration with Splunk, and we are creating a dashboard there. Their dashboard area must be up to date. It should have more details and more options to create the reports and things like that."
"It is cloud-based, and this does make some weary of the data being held on the cloud. Privacy requirements must be taken into account."
"Support, particularly related to after-sales and after deployment, could be improved a bit. If you need to connect to support, it takes at least a day to reach the support team and get a proper reply."
"I have worked with their technical support on several problems that were never fully resolved."
"This solution is relatively expensive."
"The management of the solution could improve."
"Tenable Identity Exposure is more expensive than Defender for Identity."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are three to four licensing models available to choose from for CrowdStrike Falcon. The price of CrowdStrike Falcon depends on the distributor and the reseller partner. The price we received was good."
"This solution has a very competitive price."
"I am not aware of the price, but I believe that it is among the most expensive XDRs out there. Of course, this is dependent on the features you choose. Depending on the features, the price might increase."
"The pricing is not bad. It's on the higher end of the market, but you get what you pay for."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive than other EDR solutions with similar features."
"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."
"The product is expensive."
"The tool is a little bit expensive compared to other products, but I think it's okay owing to its quality."
