CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR Reviews

Endpoint protection is the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete at this moment.

I would improve the Operational Technology environment functionalities.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for four years.

We are working on the complete version.

This solution is quite stable.

I would rate the stability of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete a ten out of ten.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a scalable solution.

I would rate it a ten out of ten.

We have 12,000 users in our organization who use this solution.

We have a full service, we don't require any admins, and we use the support from CrowdStrike directly.

The technical support is great.

It is very easy to implement. We are already attaching new companies with this platform, and there are no issues. 

It is completed really quickly. You simply need an Internet connection, and it is quite simple to connect additional PCs and workstations.

Pricing is reasonable.

There are no additional fees.

I would rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete a ten out of ten.

The main valuable features are feasibility, ease of deployment, and that it's all based in the cloud. I like that it is gradually updated and that the detection rate is higher than that of other endpoint solutions. There are fewer loopholes.

When you enable a particular feature, it takes a long time, from 15 to 30 minutes, to implement in enterprise environments. This can be improved.

It would be nice if additional features were included in the product at no extra cost.

I've been working with this solution for about six months.

I haven't had any issues with stability.

It's scalable. You can use APIs to connect with all of the solutions. For example, you can use APIs to connect to a SIEM environment.

CrowdStrike's technical support is very good, and I would give them a ten out of ten.

Positive

The initial deployment is simple because you get continuous support from the CrowdStrike team, and they are very responsive.

The licensing cost for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is fair, and I would give it a five out of five. You have to pay per device/user.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a good solution, and we have not had any complaints so far. On a scale from one to ten, I would rate it at eight.

What's most valuable about CrowdStrike Falcon Complete as an endpoint security solution is that it provides different features against malware outbreaks. The solution is also cloud-based so it offers flexibility in terms of managing it. It's also easy to deploy the agent and you can deploy it through CrowdStrike, your CloudStrike console, or you can take that agent out and you can use different solutions to deploy it through your group policy, your SSCM, or any asset management tool.

What could be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the threat hunting feature and the insights it provides, in particular, the variable analysis feature. Protection against zero-day threats and sandboxing could also be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. If you compare it with other solutions, it can go head-to-head, but the features I mentioned still need improvement.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a stable solution.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a scalable solution. From the infrastructure and operation side, it's one of the best tools in terms of scalability.

I have not worked directly with the technical support team of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. My company has a different team that worked directly with the CrowdStrike presale team, and that CrowdStrike team was really good, always supportive, and helpful.

I have no idea on the licensing cost of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

I have experience with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete, and I've worked with it recently. I work as a solution architect, so I work with different products, and I can't tell you exactly which version of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete I used.

I manage different customers, so the solution is deployed on various clouds, but mostly on a hybrid cloud, with providers being AWS and GCP.

My advice to anyone looking into implementing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is to go for it. You should move from the traditional antivirus to the next-gen antivirus. Next-gen antivirus such as CrowdStrike Falcon Complete has malware detection, exploit detection, and endpoint detection and response (EDR) features that you won't find in the traditional antivirus. Signature-based antivirus also fails to detect zero-day attacks as well as crypto locker, ransomware, etc. CrowdStrike Falcon Complete has IOA behavioral protection, and it has an analysis functionality and great reporting capabilities, so you should go for it.

My rating for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is eight out of ten. Sometimes on remote users as it is release-signed, there's some issue with the agent and some false positives as well. In terms of detection, an antivirus or EDR solution, or any kind of threat protection product, you have to check a few things. One is how good it is when malware is in the pre-execution stage and the post-execution stage. I have done some analysis on CrowdStrike Falcon Complete on seventy-five different parameters and controls, and I concluded that the product is really good. It's not a ten out of ten because I cannot provide a perfect score for any product. Eight out of ten is a good score in my point of view because you'd still feel that other things are missing in the product.

Currently, we're trying to understand which solution would be able to help us to block external ports on computers. We're looking at Crowdstrike and working to understand how they can help us handle this.

While I'm not directly on the team that deals with the solution daily, I would say that the solution is very stable.

The solution is quite flexible.

We haven't had any issues with the product so far. 

It's my understanding that the reporting aspect of the solution could be improved. It should be more flexible and robust.

The solution should include some sort of DLP capabilities.

I've been using the solution for a while. It's been about three years or so.

The stability of the solution is very good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. The performance is great.

We have more than 25,000 users on the solution currently. 

We are currently evaluating the solution to see if we will continue to use it or not going forward. Until that is done, I can't speak to if there are plans to increase usage.

I've never been in touch with technical support. A different team handles that aspect. I cannot speak to how helpful or responsive they are. I can't provide any useful insights at this time. 

The initial setup took place about three years ago. At the time it was installed I wasn't a part of the company. Therefore, I can't speak to how easy or difficult the solution is to set up and deploy. I wasn't a part of the process. 

We pay a licensing fee in order to use the solution, however, I can't speak to the overall cost. It's not an aspect of the solution I directly deal with.

My company is a customer and an end-user of the solution. It doesn't have any direct affiliation with Crowdstrike.

We're using the latest version of the solution at this time. I can't speak to what the actual version number is. 

I'd rate the solution, on a scale from one to ten, at an eight. We're mostly quite satisfied with the solution.

I'd recommend the solution to other users and organizations.

Comparing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete with Bitdefender, I would say that Bitdefender was comparatively easier to use, deploy and maintain, especially for my technical resources.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the same as any other EDR program. It provided full antivirus protection. Also, it provided a little bit of the ransomware and other protections you would see within the Bitdefender field. The content control wasn't as intuitive and easy to use as Bitdefender.

The most valuable thing in the solution was the analytical AI to detect viruses faster than Bitdefender.

The simplicity of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete's content control and firewall management should be improved. Ransomware protection of the solution needs to be improved.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for six months before switching to Bitdefender, which is easier to maintain.

It's a stable application. It is one of the most stable out of all the other market applications, especially if you're talking about within the EDR platform.

If you don't watch the training videos for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete, it's not as intuitive as Bitdefender.

I have had a very limited experience with the customer support team. So, their response time was far worse than any of the other vendors. So that was probably one of the driving factors and the reason why the adoption process didn't go so well, which is because of their onboarding process, during which they used to take a day to get back to assist you. I would have understood if they had taken a couple of hours to help us, but waiting for a day wasn't acceptable.

I rate the initial setup a four on a scale from one to ten, where one is very difficult.

One can see a return on investment because it does protect one's core environment.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very expensive in comparison to Bitdefender.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is probably one of the best software out there if you're looking at it. But if you're on a budget and you want to get something within the same price level, I would look at Bitdefender. Then if I added a worst-case scenario, I would go to Sophos or SentinelOne. In my industry, the cost is a huge variable. Though it's a good product, it's not easy and intuitive. I have to remember that my technical resources to offload my work are in the Philippines. So I need to have something that's very simplistic. I have helped desks in the Philippines, Malaysia, Mexico, and Singapore. When I choose an application, I have to consider the intuitiveness of that application and also the multiple language barriers. So, that is where prospects fail, which is during the adoption process.

I rate the overall solution a seven or eight out of ten.

We are using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for fileless attacks, ransomware, and zero-day attacks.

The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the lightweight design, easily manageable portal, and minimal IT maintenance required.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete could improve by having advanced features, such as SOC, and HDR. There would have been a lot of processes involved.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for approximately three years.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a stable solution.

The scalability of rowdStrike Falcon Complete is good.

We have approximately 500 computers using the solution. We have approximately 1,200 people using the solution.

I have not contacted the technical support from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

The initial setup of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is easy. The time it took for the deployment was approximate one week for 500 computers.

We did the deployment of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete in-house.

There is a license needed to use the solution. The price of the solution is fair.

We evaluated McAfee and Symantec before choosing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

Symantec is complicated and it did not have as many features when compared to CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. McAfee is also a very complicated solution.

If you use this solution your environment will be safe.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete an eight out of ten.

The most valuable feature of Falcon Complete is that it is a full security operations center (SOC) as well as a SIEM solution, and it is fully managed. Their security teams are working 24/7 and analyzing everything happening on all endpoints. They also take care of the instant response, which includes disconnecting endpoints, taking over the endpoints and fixing them, and ransomware protection. All of these things are most valuable because it is very difficult to get all the resources in-house to do all of that yourself. So, if you can leverage the experience of a global corporation with the best reputation in the market, and it is fully managed, that's the best. 

They're incredibly transparent. They give full access to all the information and dashboards that they work off themselves. So, you can look in and investigate any incident you wish. It is incredibly powerful from a compliance point of view because you have evidence that all of this is happening, and you're doing it correctly, and you take it seriously. 

It is already wonderful. The dashboards they have are great, but they can always improve it in terms of general interfaces and searching and presenting the information. Occasionally, navigating it to try to find what you want can be challenging because there is so much information there. It is so rich, and it has everything you could ever want. The challenge with anything like that, and any website, is how to build the user journey so that it is user-friendly, but at the same time, it is incredibly dense with information. It is difficult to achieve that balance between these things. They've done a wonderful job, but everything can be improved. So, it could be even better. If I was to focus on one thing, that's what I'd tell them to focus on. The same is with Azure. There is just so much functionality there. How can you make it easy when it is just so vast? It is a tough one.

It would be good if they fleshed it out a bit more, possibly with additional areas such as security awareness training. They could build that in. They're leveraging the same endpoint base that they have the security software on, but then they could offer a centralized portal or hub whereby someone like me could leverage it to track and put out security awareness training for people on all the common topics. I could have a centralized hub for everyone's results from that training and for the evidence that training occurred. It would be relatively straightforward, but it would add a lot for people in the compliance area. It would be a great expansion. It won't improve the actual technical protection, but it would improve the user protection. Educating the users to be more aware increases security. So, if they branched out into that, it would be a great bonus. If I was speaking to them, that's what I'd tell them to do.

I have been using this solution for a couple of years.

It is super stable. I would rate it a ten out of ten in terms of stability.

It is scalable. It is for endpoint protection. It is a cloud-based platform. So, it can scale to whatever amount of endpoints you want. You can scale it any way you want.

The endpoint deployment is relatively straightforward. The only constraint is licensing. The more you scale, the more you pay. That's it.

We have less than 200 users of this solution.

It is a fully managed service, So, we have 24/7 support. It is not technical support. It is a dedicated team, and they're there to answer any queries or questions. So, no technical support was required because nothing went wrong, but when we have questions, they're incredibly responsive. They get back super quick. I have no complaints at all. I would rate them a five out of five.

Positive

We had another solution previously, and we just replaced it with CrowdStrike. Based on all available information, we just decided it was the best, and we don't regret that. It has been very good.

Its initial setup is simple. It is very well designed.

All our endpoints are managed by mobile device management. We have centralized device management, deployment, and installation with Intune. We can install anything we want on any of the computers with Intune.

It is not cheap, and it is not overpriced. It positions itself in the upper half of pricing in the market. You can find a product that claims to do the same and is super cheap, but it'll be not at all good. You can find something that says it does everything in the world, and it is the best thing since sliced bread, but it would be incredibly expensive. Falcon Complete is neither of those. It is always best to go somewhere in the middle, but it is not in the middle. It is in the upper half. So, it is by no means cheap, but it is worth it. Its pricing is well fixed. Given what you get in return, you wouldn't feel bad paying for it.

They have a great licensing model. You can add extra bells and whistles if you want. There is that ability to reduce the price by turning off certain features if you wish. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it, but they do cater to everyone in that sense. 

We compared it to all other vendors, and then we decided on it because it is the best in class and in the Gartner Magic Quadrant. It is the best in the market. 

I would highly recommend it. So far, my experience has been nothing but positive. 

I would rate it a 10 out of 10. It is in the top five. It ticks all the boxes that I have for it. You got to manage your expectations, and given my expectations, it exceeds my expectations. Now, if you were to ask me what is my expectation for the software next year, I'd want it to be better, but at this exact moment in time, it is doing a fantastic job, and I hope they keep it up and improve. If they don't, then my grade will drop. 

I would say it is for endpoint security, malware, antivirus, and advanced threat monitoring.

I would say it secures the edge for customers more than they were before. It makes them more secure.

I think the AI and the analytics around stopping threats as they come in and learning as threats happen is probably the biggest selling feature. 

I think the pricing is a little high. As of recent, their MITRE scores were not as good as in years past. I would like to see them integrate Humio, which is their SOC or their SIM platform. I would like to see them integrate that into a single solution.

I have been working with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for the past year and a half.

The stability is great.

They are very scalable even large organizations use CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

I would say it's pretty good for the most part. I would give it an eight out of ten.

Positive

The initial setup is pretty easy. You are given an implementation specialist. Deployment usually takes a couple of weeks for a bigger organization. For a smaller organization, it could take a couple of days. For just the straight endpoint protection product, you are probably looking at eight dollars a month per user. If you're doing the Falcon Complete with monitoring and the SOC, you're probably looking at eighteen or nineteen dollars a month per user.

A lot of them used MacAfee, Silance, or a couple of other solutions. There's more AI and more built into it.

I would rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete a nine out of ten.
