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

"The solution also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"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 a scale from one to ten, I would rate the overall solution as a ten."
"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."
"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"It has good visibility, works well, and it is fast."
"There's less workload on the endpoint."
"It is a very good solution. It can provide detection and response in an extensive way, and for an endpoint, it can integrate the information that comes from the servers."
"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."
"One differentiator of CrowdStrike is that it's nearly what I would call zero-touch on the workstation."
"The AI detection has been excellent in terms of detection and stopping malicious processes with little to no input on our end."
"It is a stable solution."
"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."
 

Cons

"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."
"The solution does not tie into other EDR products like CyberArk or CrowdStrike but that might be more useful."
"While I am very satisfied with the service, supporting additional platforms, particularly Linux support, would be a beneficial improvement."
"The feature we keep asking for is a vulnerability scan."
"Some texts seem to report items as normal too quickly."
"The interface could be more intuitive."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete does not include patch management functionality."
"I would like to see CrowdStrike Falcon Complete XDR integrate more effectively with other technologies."
"I would like to have the option to deploy on-premise."
"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is pricey."
"The only negative is that it is pricey, but you're paying for 24/7 eyes on your entire environment."
"In my opinion, CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR can be improved by reducing the requirement for us to build a lot of the policies ourselves, as it would help a lot if there were more of those policies out of the box that we can leverage right away instead of developing them over time; I believe there should be a common denominator of policy that could be suggested at implementation time."
"The customization could be tweaked. We can do a bunch of custom dashboards. However, the one thing that I'm not a fan of is when you go to do an investigation, the way that the processes are laid out on the screen is very bland looking. While the information is there, it could be laid out better."
"It would be good if they fleshed it out a bit more, possibly with additional areas such as security awareness training. They could build that in. They're leveraging the same endpoint base that they have the security software on, but then they could offer a centralized portal or hub whereby someone like me could leverage it to track and put out security awareness training for people on all the common topics. I could have a centralized hub for everyone's results from that training and for the evidence that training occurred. It would be relatively straightforward, but it would add a lot for people in the compliance area. It would be a great expansion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is in line with other products."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The price of this solution is expensive compared to others solutions."
"It is a fairly firm price. It is not the cheapest solution, but if you take the complete team into consideration, it is a great value."
"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."
"There is a license needed to use the solution. The price of the solution is fair."
"Its price is very high. CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is 50% more expensive than Cisco AMP for Endpoints."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very expensive in comparison to Bitdefender."
"While CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is expensive, it offers great features and functionality."
