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.

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

"The solution has improved my organization by automating the detection and reporting of unwanted applications so we're aware of them and can respond appropriately."
"Everything you need to know is right there in a single dashboard."
"CrowdStrike has a much lower rate of false positives than Cylance and the dashboard makes it easier to use."
"We have seen a reduction to the performance hit to our operating systems."
"This solution has made the lives of the IT staff much easier, compared to the previous one."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's scalability is good. We have thousands of students using this solution."
"We don't need to maintain onsite servers and deep end user updates with the new vulnerabilities."
"We like Falcon's network visibility. We can see how threats are evolving on PCS or in the company network. The solution's real-time incident response is very fast."
"For me, the setup has been an easy process."
"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."
"I think it's a good product for risk-based or exposure-based vulnerability management."
"The product gives us a lot of insight."
"The solution is very easy to set up."
"Tenable EP is a great overall product for our customers; it's great at helping customers to identify current risks, it helps customers manage their risk, users can effectively analyze risk and can assign team members to take a look at items as well, the solution is very easy to set up, technical support is very helpful and responsive, and the pricing is pretty good."
"The feature of vulnerability management and discovery is what I use."
 

Cons

"It can be expensive depending on the features you select."
"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."
"During these two years with CrowdStrike Falcon, I certainly faced some problems, including the known CrowdStrike outage, which was quite pinching and brought many of the Windows-related services to a halt just because of one bad configuration push from CrowdStrike tracks."
"The dashboard does not have the facility to export the reports in a PDF format, which I can quickly share with internal stakeholders."
"The management of the solution could improve."
"In the future release of CrowdStrike Falcon, they should add a sandbox feature."
"As the company has grown, the technical support has felt less personal."
"I would like them to improve the correlation of data in the search algorithms. When we run an investigation, malware, phishing, etc., I want to look at multiple endpoints at once to correlate that data to see the likenesses, e.g., how are they not alike or what systems and processes are running across those systems? I don't want to have to run the same search in their Spotlight module five, 10, 15, or 100 times to get 100 different results, copy that data out, and then correlate it on my own. In a very simple way, I want to be able to load up a comma-delimited list giving me the spotlight data on these X amount of hosts, letting me search for it quickly. We have had to go back to CrowdStrike, and say, "Our search are taking far too long for even one host." They did bump up the cores and that did improve performance, but it is still kind of slow to get that Spotlight data. That is probably our biggest pain point. I think that needs some help. I understand this kind of information access is probably not the easiest thing to do. It is probably a big ask depending on how their back-end is setup."
"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."
"It would be nice if the product provided an agent for enforcing policies."
"The product has limited reporting capabilities and it isn't great at allowing for customization in reports."
"The license needs to be reviewed."
"The product has limited reporting capabilities and it isn't great at allowing for customization in reports."
"Tenable needs to provide a better way to manage private clouds."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is high in comparison to similar brands."
"Our company pays approximately US$ 65,000 annually for 900 machines."
"The product is expensive."
"While CrowdStrike Falcon offers significant security benefits, its high price point might make it prohibitively expensive for many small and medium-sized businesses, including companies like ours."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is reasonable."
"The pricing is not bad. It's on the higher end of the market, but you get what you pay for."
"We are on an annual subscription for the solution. There are not any additional costs."
"We pay 40,000 dirhams per 100 users."
"The pricing is fair."
