Featured Reviews

Waleed Omar - PeerSpot reviewer
Information Security Specialist at Arab Open University
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.
Jaya Shanker - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Security Manager at a insurance company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Has improved our vulnerability tracking and supports cloud-based monitoring with scheduled scans
We don't have any issues with Tenable One Exposure Management Platform. It works well for us, but the only problem is the licensing aspect. In the license, it becomes problematic because when we go to cloud security for vulnerability management, it will take five licenses instead of the one-on-one license that vulnerability exposure management requires. The license needs to be reviewed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"At this point what is most valuable is the interface, which is easy to navigate."
"We haven't had any infections or down time."
"Its integration capability is valuable. It integrates easily with any OS."
"As long as the machine is connected to the Internet, and CrowdStrike is running, then it will be on and we will have visibility; no VPNing in or making some type of network connection. CrowdStrike always there and running in the background; for us, that is big. We wanted something that could give us data as long as the machines connected to the Internet and be almost invisible to the employees."
"Falcon's best feature is its detection and blocking of threats."
"The most valuable feature is its threat analysis."
"The best benefit of CrowdStrike Falcon is 99% MITRE coverage."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The product gives us a lot of insight."
"I think it's a good product for risk-based or exposure-based vulnerability management."
"The solution is very easy to set up."
"We find Tenable One Exposure Management Platform vulnerability prioritization effective overall because, with the scheduled scan running on our set schedule, we can remediate any findings and check on the next schedule if issues are closed, making it much easier for us to monitor vulnerabilities."
"For me, the setup has been an easy process."
"The feature of vulnerability management and discovery is what I use."
 

Cons

"It can be expensive depending on the features you select."
"I've found that CrowdStrike's technical support could benefit from increased technical expertise."
"Currently, I do not see any tangible benefits from CrowdStrike regarding incident improvement time, response time, or cost saving."
"CrowdStrike costs a little more than its competitors."
"I don't think anything is missing in CrowdStrike Falcon, but if they can manage their SOC solution instead of users or the end users or customers doing that, it will be very useful, just as Sophos does."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve if it became an XDR. When we look only to an end-point, we lost the context of the environment. I know it's another line of design of the product. However, if CrowdStrike becomes an XDR, it could be very good."
"Too many false positives."
"If we have a dashboard capability to uninstall agents, I think that would be great."
"The sensor update is a challenge that Tenable needs to address."
"The sensor update is a challenge that Tenable needs to address. Sometimes they behave abruptly, requiring me to rework reinstalling the sensors on the endpoints."
"The product has limited reporting capabilities and it isn't great at allowing for customization in reports."
"It would be nice if the product provided an agent for enforcing policies."
"Tenable needs to provide a better way to manage private clouds."
"The license needs to be reviewed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We bought a very small number of licenses, then ran it for a year. We bought a 100 licenses for a year, so we didn't actually do a proof of concept. We just bought them. Then, the next year, we bought 10,000 licenses."
"The price is too high."
"The more endpoints an organization adds the cheaper the cost."
"It has an annual license, and it is not that expensive."
"The pricing could be reduced. If it was more reasonable that would be great."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"The pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon is competitive."
"The solution's pricing is great for us."
"The pricing is fair."
