Find out in this report how the two Anti-Malware Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."What I like best about Check Point Antivirus is that it's a strong tool for preventing malicious traffic and threats from entering the environment."
"The initial setup is easy."
"This solution helps make sure that we can patch and keep security going without having to talk to everyone for change management."
"It can scan the files that our users have downloaded to check if they have a virus."
"With Check Point, we can implement security measures to control access to the network and systems, which helps prevent unauthorized access."
"It generates enough visibility in terms of what happens on our equipment."
"The solution offers multiple features in one solution, along with data detection."
"The application runs very fast and does not affect the performance speed of the device where it is installed."
"It's given me a level of confidence that my network is secure."
"The solution is silent and sits on your system as one single agent."
"The most valuable features in CrowdStrike Falcon are the full EDR with antivirus, hunting, reporting, and RTR remote control."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's scalability is good. We have thousands of students using this solution."
"The CS falcon agent is a lightweight agent compared with other agents of EDR products."
"The threat intelligence is the most valuable feature."
"The CrowdStrike Falcon agent is very lightweight. Users never complain about their PCs getting stuck and things like that."
"Probably the most valuable thing to me is the real-time response piece. The fact that I can connect to an endpoint as long as it is on the Internet, no matter where it is globally. I can remove files from the endpoint, drop files on the endpoint, stop processes, reboot it, run custom scripts, and deploy software. Pretty much no other tool can do all that."
"What's missing in Check Point Antivirus is the EDL feature."
"A certain reduction in the annual subscription pricing could help many startup organizations like ours."
"Technical support could be better."
"I'm not very happy with the support, even in terms of the website. They don't offer much."
"It may be interesting to improve this solution against zero-day attacks, as they happen very frequently and are clearly a severe threat."
"The initial setup and configuration should be simplified."
"The product should improve its pricing."
"We would like to see the URL filtering functionality improved in this solution, so that we can exclude domains, rather than just single site URL's."
"I would like CrowdStrike to provide some correlation in the threat analysis, so we can visualize things better."
"Falcon could be improved with more function on the mobile end of things and better optimization with mobile devices."
"CS Falcon sensing capabilities for non-domain machines should be enhanced since the agent doesn't detect the neighbor's IP Address and/or any anomaly which was identified in the network for the non-domain machine."
"In terms of features, I would like them to add detailed logging functionality in CrowdStrike. Currently, CrowdStrike detects the threats immediately based on the IOCs and the signature-based policies or many threat behaviors, but in terms of logging those threats, it is not very good. The information that they provide in the logs is very little. They can build more analytics into it."
"In a future release, I would like to see more integrations for data breaches and security features."
"The portal can be clunky to navigate at times and has room for improvement."
"Forensic controls have room for improvement."
"I have experience with a product called SentinelOne, which has a feature that allows for the customization of query languages. I would like to see such a feature for CloudStrike."
