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

"On a scale from one to ten, I would rate the overall solution as a ten."
"The solution also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"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."
"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."
"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"It is a stable solution."
"We have now selected CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR, which is a managed detection and response product that is completely managed by the Falcon US team, and everything is perfectly managed by them."
"The capabilities of CrowdStrike as a tool are fantastic."
"I have found AI technology most valuable in the solution."
"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. Their security teams are working 24/7 and analyzing everything happening on all endpoints. They also take care of the instant response, which includes disconnecting endpoints, taking over the endpoints and fixing them, and ransomware protection. All of these things are most valuable because it is very difficult to get all the resources in-house to do all of that yourself. So, if you can leverage the experience of a global corporation with the best reputation in the market, and it is fully managed, that's the best."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR has transformed the workload of my internal security team because incidents are automatically resolved, so I do not have to worry about them."
"CrowdStrike is actually probably the most well-rounded endpoint platform."
"The threat response from this solution is very comprehensive."
 

Cons

"The feature we keep asking for is a vulnerability scan."
"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 solution does not tie into other EDR products like CyberArk or CrowdStrike but that might be more useful."
"The interface could be more intuitive."
"I would like to see them introduce DLP."
"It really is an expensive product in the South African market. And they need people in our country. Their partner program isn't yet where it should be. They need a lot of work and there's a lot of improvement needed."
"The solution should be lighter because it currently uses a lot of computing sources."
"I would like to have the option to deploy on-premise."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete could improve by having advanced features, such as SOC, and HDR. There would have been a lot of processes involved."
"There are some parts of this solution that are too slow."
"It's my understanding that the reporting aspect of the solution could be improved. It should be more flexible and robust."
"It would be nice to have full-scale ESR reporting."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is in line with other products."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is expensive."
"If you are looking from an IT standpoint, you get what you pay for. There is proactive monitoring in addition to the insurance policy. They do that better than others. Would you like it cheaper? Yes, but at what cost?"
"While the cost is relatively high, it is justified by the value it brings."
"While CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is expensive, it offers great features and functionality."
"The licenses are sold per user."
"We pay 40,000 euros to use this solution."
"We pay $50,000 for the 200 endpoints we have."
"The price is okay, although you're not going to get away cheap when it comes to security."
