Round-the-clock monitoring has freed our small team and improves our threat response focus
In terms of improvement for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR, they just keep going full steam ahead. The biggest room for a house is the room for improvement, but as of right now, I don't have any complaints about CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR. Additional features that should be included in the next release of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR would be on-demand scanning. That is something we have to do manually. For instance, if a user plugs in a USB device, even though in our environment we have USB devices locked completely, CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR will still read those devices even though they can't physically access them. If it does find malicious software, those are manually done still, and that's per the SLA. I have had a few of those that have come up, but those have been few and far between.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I appreciate that there are people behind the scenes sorting out valuable alerts from those that are not, so I only get alerts when they are real."
"On my end, the most valuable feature of this solution is that I can install it and forget about it. After that, their SOC team takes over and they only call me when there's a problem."
"The solution is all encompassing and can incorporate email monitoring."
"The solution also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"On a scale from one to ten, I would rate the overall solution as a ten."
"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"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."
"Two of the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete are the remote terminal and unlimited IoCs."
"The stability is great for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete."
"There's less workload on the endpoint."
"I appreciate that CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR detects malicious activities in real time, and I appreciate that it takes action fast."
"The AI and the group knowledge base that they get from having multiple clients in the cloud is very useful to us, as it helps keep us safe from attacks by allowing them to apply a broader knowledge base to our protection for our company."
"The features I have found valuable are artificial intelligence, which protects us against malicious forces of any kind, and device control through the remote execution tool."
"The solution is suitable for large size companies, it scales well."
 

Cons

"The solution does not tie into other EDR products like CyberArk or CrowdStrike but that might be more useful."
"The feature we keep asking for is a vulnerability scan."
"The interface could be more intuitive."
"While I am very satisfied with the service, supporting additional platforms, particularly Linux support, would be a beneficial improvement."
"The interface could be more intuitive. More transparency is needed in the interface as a lot of details are hidden behind the scenes, making them difficult or impossible to access."
"Some texts seem to report items as normal too quickly."
"The performance slows down by between 10% and 40%, depending on what type of work the machine is doing."
"The solution is geared more towards larger organizations, so it can be difficult for organizations with smaller budgets to utilize the solution."
"In the CrowdStrike, you have some sort of limited information and for the in-depth information you need to take it, Carbon Black provides that particular thing on the first view."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR offers an optional module that might not be cost-effective for all organizations."
"Of course, the cost is going to take a couple of years to get back after the initial cost investment."
"The one issue with Falcon Complete is that it can't be run manually if you find any viruses or malicious files in a post."
"Some processor utilization needs to be dropped because now Windows systems are consuming more CPU and RAM than earlier."
"The downside is that if you are using a device offline, not connected to the internet, you will potentially have exposure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing is in line with other products."
"At approximately €60 per machine, per year, I think that it's a good price point."
"The pricing could be lower."
"The price is okay, although you're not going to get away cheap when it comes to security."
"While CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is expensive, it offers great features and functionality."
"The licensing cost for this solution is $5000 per license, with each machine requiring its own license."
"CrowdStrike offers training at an additional cost, so many organizations wouldn't want that route."
"We pay $50,000 for the 200 endpoints we have."
"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."
