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.

The main focus for using ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) is advanced threat prediction and data protection of the organization, which has a great response to threat detection. If there is a cyber security attack, it helps significantly. The platform is exceptionally efficient and provides a very good response whenever required. The advanced threat detection helps identify suspicious activity, and whenever there is a cyber attack, it focuses on the process, analyzes the cyber security attacks on time, and provides advance warning if there is a problem.

The Unified Library helps unify the data, enables advanced detection, and provides centralized analysis of the threat library, connecting to ongoing or incoming threats. It helps with strategic, tactical, operational, and technical threat intelligence, with each type providing a different insight into the threat landscape, contributing to a well-rounded cyber security strategy.

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 is the machine learning that they use to check certain patterns in the endpoint devices. It checks the whole ecosystem or entire environment."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's most valuable features are the lightweight agent which has absolutely zero performance issues. There is no performance deterioration on the laptop on the network. It is a signature-less antivirus and anti-malware solution, it doesn't depend on signatures which better protects the systems."

"The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon are the AI in detecting and real-time detections."
"All the features are beneficial."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is effortless to use, and it's a cloud-specific platform. You only need to deploy the light agents on the licensed endpoints, and you're ready to work. Your dashboards will tell you the number of the endpoints being protected and the incidents. There are also incident dashboards with alerts that will tell you about the details."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has positively impacted my organization by providing good protection, logs, and reports, which I find very good."
"We have a small IT Team, and this allows us to get sleep at night, knowing that someone else is taking care of any incidents that occur."
"ThreatConnect has a highly user-friendly interface."

Cons

"I have worked with their technical support on several problems that were never fully resolved."
"It would be nice if the dashboard had some more information upfront, and looked a little better."
"They need to strengthen the forensic capabilities of this product, for e-discovery."
"To simplify the budgeting process for our clients, CrowdStrike should consider offering bundled packages that include essential features."
"The dashboard does not have the facility to export the reports in a PDF format, which I can quickly share with internal stakeholders."
"As the company has grown, the technical support has felt less personal."
"It does take more time to scan than other solutions."
"This solution is relatively expensive."
"They should make it a little bit easier to generate events and share them with the community"
"Support is an area with which nobody is ever fully satisfied, so it can be improved."
"Sometimes, when using the solution, it slows down, affecting our ability to mitigate threats."
"It would be good to have more feeds and more integrated sources for enrichment."
"I couldn’t get any training videos online when I was working with the tool."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced."
"The price is too high."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. I don't think we are getting charged more than what it is worth. It is fair, but I do not like how it is a la carte. I realize they do that so other organizations can buy and get the agent, getting it cheaper than you could otherwise. However, if you want the main core package, which has all the main features with the exception of maybe the multi-cloud protections, that can get pricier for an organization. So, you have to pick and choose what you want. I do not care for a la carte pricing."
"This solution has a very competitive price."
"Our licensing fees were between $50,000 and $60,000 per year, which was pretty expensive for a small business."
"The pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon is competitive."
"I do not have experience with the cost or licensing of the product."
"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."
"I rate the product price as six on a scale of one to ten, where one is extremely expensive, and ten means it is cheap."
"The price of this product is in the mid-range, not too expensive, nor inexpensive."
"The tool is expensive."
"The price could be better."
