Alexander Zhuravel - PeerSpot reviewer
A highly scalable tool that ensures its users face no problems while using it as a backup system
The tool is scalable and is currently being used on over 2,000 nodes. So, our company doesn't count the number of clients we have, but we do count the number of nodes, specifically referring to file system nodes, backup nodes, database nodes, virtual machine nodes, and blockchain nodes, which we use for file-based applications. According to the traffic, a backup of five petabytes of data can be done for a month.
Durai  Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution is expensive, support is poor, and it takes time to understand the product
I have worked with traditional antivirus solutions like Symantec, McAfee, Trend Micro, Kaspersky, Sophos, and F-Secure. Broadcom acquired Symantec, and Trellix acquired McAfee. The market is disturbed as other solutions are acquiring the traditional leaders. Getting support is becoming a challenge. Carbon Black provides endpoint detection and response. CrowdStrike provides vulnerability assessment and application testing features. It gives additional threat prevention to the customer. So, I prefer CrowdStrike over Carbon Black. Carbon Black and CrowdStrike provide very good market strategies.
