A very stable tool that offers security and protection, along with automatic updates
The product's initial setup was very straightforward. When it comes to the time taken for the deployment part of 360 Safeguard, once in the back-end, the tool normally shows a message and shows the upgrade or whatever is running the back-end that I might not have noticed. The solution is deployed on the cloud. I could not even notice the deployment process because I think it just somehow showed up in my system one day, and it worked with my Windows system very smoothly and seamlessly. When I install Windows Office and choose Office 365, I see 360 Safeguard installed.

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.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product's initial setup was very straightforward."
"I like that it's stable and easy to access."
"I would absolutely recommend this solution to others."
"What I found most valuable in 360 Safeguard is its VPN feature. I support remote sites, so I use a VPN."
"Everything we've done with CrowdStrike is due to Arctic Wolf. We don't even need to get alerts from CrowdStrike anymore. It'll send those to Arctic Wolf, and then Arctic Wolf analyzes those and let us know if there's a major issue."
"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."
"The EDR feature of CrowdStrike is fantastic."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers a comprehensive dashboard that is highly effective in protecting against and blocking external infiltration attempts."
"CrowdStrike provides a lot of visibility in their tool."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has a ransom detection time of less than 50 seconds."
"I like the detection rates of mobile threats."
"The managed services are distinguished, responsive, dynamic, flexible, and assertive when taking action."
 

Cons

"It could be more secure and compatible with other software."
"The web center in 360 Safeguard could be better, so this is its area for improvement. 360 Safeguard could be more scalable, especially for big businesses."
"In 360 Safeguard, there is something called the menu or advanced menu support, a process that I find to be a little bit awkward."
"It could be more secure and compatible with other software."
"We can't do scanning audits or device blocking or application control."
"The management of the solution could improve."
"The solution needs to have integration with on-premises security devices and security facilities. That means all the security products, including the perimeter firewall, the DMZ."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve if it became an XDR. When we look only to an end-point, we lose the context of the environment."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve by adding manual scanning or serverless scanning. It is not available at this time."
"We have had to open a case with the technical support to get some issues and bugs resolved."
"Crowdstrike Falcon XDR can improve the integration. There are some locks on the cloud to on-premise integrations."
"Falcon could be improved with more function on the mobile end of things and better optimization with mobile devices."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I bought a license — it's quite cheap. It's definitely cheaper than an American product. It costs approximately $40 a year."
"360 Safeguard is low-priced. It only costs $300."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is one of the more expensive endpoint solutions on the market."
"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."
"Our licensing fees were between $50,000 and $60,000 per year, which was pretty expensive for a small business."
"Different components are additional price points. We got the components that were right for us, but other organizations may require more (or less) components to suit their needs."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is reasonable."
"I would like them to further reduce the price, because it is quite pricey at the moment."
"The other administrator and I can log in to check the exact details of what happened, what was running, and what caused the detection. We know exactly what was happening on the end users PC and we can tell if it's something that we actually need or something that's malicious."
"The cost is usually a challenge in the industry. I think we pay around sixty-eight dollars."
