Has good integration capability and provides information and events but improvement is needed in information retrieval speed
The best features are the comprehensive event collection and analysis. Once set up properly, we receive all events and information. The team analyzes our data and presents incidents to us. We can communicate with their team to escalate and resolve incidents. It has a feature we use to search for information about our environment and past incidents. This is very valuable. The integration capability is very good - the ClearSkies SaaS NG SIEM team is collaborative. We've integrated most of our systems, including EDR and NDR. They have agents to collect events from servers and assets.

Provides effective real-time threat detection with potential for cost optimization
Some features such as device control, firewall management, and file analysis are standalone products that we need to purchase separately. If these features came out of the box within the product, it would be much more beneficial for us. Other providers such as SentinelOne include these features in their base product. We attended a CrowdStrike Falcon event where they discussed some shallow AI features, but we cannot see these in our panel yet. We work with different solutions such as Darktrace and SocRadar, where AI features are automatically displayed in our dashboards after release. However, for CrowdStrike Falcon, we cannot see these features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The correlation rules and the user platform are most valuable."
"The integration capability is very good - the ClearSkies SaaS NG SIEM team is collaborative. We've integrated most of our systems, including EDR and NDR. They have agents to collect events from servers and assets."
"The features we showcase to potential customers are prevention, malware protection, zero-day protection, and application scripting. Vulnerability assessment is another valuable feature."
"It's ability to do threat hunting is really great, quite robust, and even allows you to do hygiene stuff."
"The real-time analytics aspect of CrowdStrike performs well because we get all logs in real-time, with no delay, allowing us to take action immediately."
"The anomaly detection is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is silent and sits on your system as one single agent."
"Cyberattack detection is very good. We use it for detecting different vulnerabilities, such as ransomware, virus, and malware. It is a good product today when compared to Symantec that we used previously."
"I like the Overwatch feature the most."
"The feature I like the most is the solution's detection."
 

Cons

"The main issue for improvement is the platform's slowness in presenting information. Retrieving information can take a little time when clicking on something."
"They can add behavior analytics and AI or machine learning technology. They also improve their correlation engine. In addition to collecting logs from devices, they can collect the traffic and then correlate these logs and the traffic information."
"CrowdStrike Suites and the way that it bundles things can be a bit challenging. It should be easier to integrate with the other stuff that they sell or be included with what they sell. We have one piece, then they are talking about another piece on vulnerability management all of the sudden, and we don't own that piece. We can see it in the console, but nothing shows up. It simply appears within the tool as an option, but we can't use it without purchasing it."
"The management reporting functionality needs to be improved."
"The malware analysis could be improved, as that's what we use the solution for the most and that change would make it a better EDR tool."
"The solution needs to have integration with on-premises security devices and security facilities. That means all the security products, including the perimeter firewall, the DMZ."
"The solution should have included remote wipe capability out of the box."
"They offered a white glove service that was extremely costly. When we got into it, we saw it was relatively easy. If I was being nitpicky, I'd say that I don't like being sold something that's unnecessary. That's the only downside I've seen to the solution."
"I would like CrowdStrike to provide some correlation in the threat analysis, so we can visualize things better."
"The KDR solution is immature. They do not have much preemption in ITDR. Threat prevention should be their first priority, and false positive reductions are needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding pricing, I'd say it's in the middle range. Pricing is very good compared to others."
"They have changed the pricing policy. Its price is competitive. Its price is less than half of the price of QRadar, LogRhythm, and Splunk."
"CrowdStrike is a reasonably priced tool."
"We are on an annual subscription for the solution. There are not any additional costs."
"I'm not directly involved in sales, so I can't comment on the exact price, but I know the price decreases the higher the quantity we purchase."
"The pricing is good and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is reasonable."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. I don't think we are getting charged more than what it is worth. It is fair, but I do not like how it is a la carte. I realize they do that so other organizations can buy and get the agent, getting it cheaper than you could otherwise. However, if you want the main core package, which has all the main features with the exception of maybe the multi-cloud protections, that can get pricier for an organization. So, you have to pick and choose what you want. I do not care for a la carte pricing."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced."
"Our licensing fees were between $50,000 and $60,000 per year, which was pretty expensive for a small business."
