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 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 also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"The solution is all encompassing and can incorporate email monitoring."
"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"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."
"I like Falcon's AI functionality and vulnerability management. That has been so helpful. Falcon Complete can manage vulnerabilities, quarantine threats, and do all kinds of forensic incident analysis. It's a lightweight solution that only uses 1% of the CPU, which is a game changer. Other EDRs have had high CPU usage."
"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."
"If you use this solution your environment will be safe."
"Its IOCs alerting mechanism is good. I think it is AI based and categorizes behaviors which are unusual."
"It's not a signature-based solution, which is ideal for us."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR gives us very good peace of mind knowing that our organization is protected, and we have more eyes on our environment if any detections arise."
"I find the incident management feature valuable because it identifies new types of viruses and sends an alert to the console administrator to check the hardware."
"One differentiator of CrowdStrike is that it's nearly what I would call zero-touch on the workstation."
 

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. 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 interface could be more intuitive."
"Some texts seem to report items as normal too quickly."
"While I am very satisfied with the service, supporting additional platforms, particularly Linux support, would be a beneficial improvement."
"There are some parts of this solution that are too slow."
"The documentation that they had for the use of their API's was not very helpful."
"Of course, the cost is going to take a couple of years to get back after the initial cost investment."
"It's my understanding that the reporting aspect of the solution could be improved. It should be more flexible and robust."
"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."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete does not include patch management functionality."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete could improve by having advanced features, such as SOC, and HDR. There would have been a lot of processes involved."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR can be improved by working on their ability to provide file integrity monitoring a little bit better and across more platforms, but outside of the FIM, they are pretty solid."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing is in line with other products."
"The licenses are sold per user."
"The price of this solution is expensive compared to others solutions."
"The solution needs to have human involvement, they could improve by having more automation where the solution can take the necessary action on time and more accurately."
"There is an annual subscription."
"They are really reasonable for the services they are providing. When you add more endpoints, you are going to pay more for the license."
"This product is one of the more expensive ones on the market."
"At approximately €60 per machine, per year, I think that it's a good price point."
"There is a license for this solution and everything is included. However, The price of the could be lower."
