Provides good protection and works well when configured correctly
It works well as long as you set it right. You have to be careful with Bitdefender. It's different when you use it on laptops and desktops, but on servers, it's not the same. You need to make proper settings on it for what you ought to exclude. The problems it was causing were mainly because they didn't set it up properly. When you start putting it on things, you have to make sure you don't include certain things and that you make proper rules and settings to say go scan this or that. When you're installing anything like this on desktops, laptops, servers, or anything else, you want to make sure that you have done the research first and that you know what to include or exclude. Overall, I'd rate it an eight out of ten.

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

"The protection that it provides is valuable because the biggest problem that people and companies have been seeing in the last two or three years is scams and everything like that."
"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."
"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."
"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 find the notifications and alerts received from CrowdStrike server to be invaluable."
"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."
"We have seen returns on our investment in more than thousands of instances, which is the most important part for us."
"CrowdStrike is an excellent tool for managing all endpoint-related security tasks."
"On a scale of 1-10, I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox a 10 out of 10."
 

Cons

"I remember when they first pushed it to the DBM server, my backup server at the time, it caused a lot of issues because they were supposed to exclude all the folders that they were backing up to and had the storage. I got hold of the security group and asked them to uninstall it. We uninstalled it, ran a script, and then it fixed the problem."
"While CrowdStrike is a powerful tool, the user interface is cluttered with many features, making it challenging to navigate."
"While CrowdStrike is a powerful tool, the user interface is cluttered with many features, making it challenging to navigate."
"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."
"The detailed report is very valuable, but not always accurate. This is a great resource to share amongst team members and stakeholders after analysis."
"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."
"As of now, there is nothing specific in need of improvement."
"The product needs integration with SOAR products to add more integration points, which is important for various clients."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was included in the account that we had. We didn't have to pay for it."
"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."
