Stable but bad technical support, and an out of date database

Alerts and notifications have enhanced malware detection capabilities
These features are probably the most essential for me. I find the notifications and alerts received from CrowdStrike server to be invaluable. They analyze Falcon and provide output regarding any kind of infected malware devices or files. We have seen returns on our investment in more than thousands of instances, which is the most important part for us.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like the simplicity of this solution and the fact that it saves us time. The deployment was really straightforward and useful and I am impressed by the anti-virus endpoint detection and response offered by this solution."
"The endpoint protection is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The solution has exchange protection. It has a content control, device control, a firewall, and anti-malware as well. They are all quite valuable features for us."
"CrowdStrike is an excellent tool for managing all endpoint-related security tasks."
"We have seen returns on our investment in more than thousands of instances, which is the most important part for us."
"I find the notifications and alerts received from CrowdStrike server to be invaluable."
"It provides a safe way to analyze and review documents that may have sensitive information without uploading them to a public platform. Additionally, provides an easy way to spin up a VM without requiring additional resources and patching of personal or team-managed virtualization."
"I don't have any suggestions, because the solution is company-maintained and I believe the company is adopting every feature based on their needs and requirements."
"CrowdStrike is an excellent tool for managing all endpoint-related security tasks."
"The cloud deployment of CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox benefits my organization because we can access it from anywhere and at any time we can get the information."
"The most valuable features include malware detection, threat rating related to files, studying the metadata of the files, and providing threat feeds to the endpoint."
 

Cons

"There are blurred lines between anti-virus and endpoint detection so I would say it can be confusing when you are considering buying this program. I would like to see that being explained better to the customer."
"The database needs improvement. It needs to be updated quite a bit."
"There needs to be better integration with the environment. Especially, for the active directory and also for keeping up with the changes from Microsoft. We use a lot of Microsoft OS. I have noted that sometimes they lag behind Microsoft updates. For example, when with Windows 10. I had some issues with deploying to Windows 10 because the solution was behind in updating their own services to match the Microsoft release."
"The CrowdStrike support is not good; the support team does not come remotely, and we repeatedly ask them to collect logs and analyze them before providing a solution via email."
"While CrowdStrike is a powerful tool, the user interface is cluttered with many features, making it challenging to navigate."
"The technical support is medium - they could improve, as communication is sometimes slow or late. There are missing detections that other tools catch. For improvements, we need easier ways to view full incident information and better presentation of data. Adding risk indicators for incidents would help decide on immediate actions. The platform should provide more information about incident risks to help less knowledgeable staff make decisions."
"One of the valuable features of the solution is to impressively detect threats without any impact on the end point performance. The solution ensures that the end users have a seamless experience."
"The product needs integration with SOAR products to add more integration points, which is important for various clients."
"As of now, there is nothing specific in need of improvement."
"While CrowdStrike is a powerful tool, the user interface is cluttered with many features, making it challenging to navigate."
"The detailed report is very valuable, but not always accurate. This is a great resource to share amongst team members and stakeholders after analysis."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There's a yearly cost for licensing. For us, that comes to $1,400. There are no additional costs beyond the license itself."
"Price-wise, the tool is a bit above mid-range, maybe 7 out of 10, where 10 is the most expensive."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox is not cheap; however, whether it should be more affordable is a decision best left to the company."
