Experienced reduced alert fatigue with streamlined notifications
We use Blackpoint Cyber MDR for our higher-end clients who need a higher level of control over security We get a deeper look into security related events that are otherwise difficult find and analyze. Security operations does a good job of weeding out the noise. I appreciate that there are…

Centralized log onboarding has transformed root-cause analysis and streamlined alert-driven triage
I do not use automations within CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM at this point, but that is something that we want to do in the future. Maybe I did not experiment or did not investigate, but if we can get alerts based upon the CPU utilizations and the metrics over there, probably that would make this one tool used for everything. Actually, the circumstances that prompted my company to explore new SIEM solutions maybe include a point where the storage space or the license that we have, probably compared to other SIEM products, they have more, or the pricing and sales that go into the picture there. Again, that is above my pay grade to comment on, but it probably could be better if we can provide more storage of the data for the license that has been provided for organizations.

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."
"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"The solution also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"The solution is all encompassing and can incorporate email monitoring."
"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."
"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."
"The speed with which my team searches, investigates, and responds to security events has saved us more than 70% of the time by having the sources integrated in one place, and thanks to Falcon MCP, we can use AI to save time."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM has drastically changed the speed at which my team searches, investigates, and responds to security events, enabling analysts to save quite a bit of time, around 70% I would say, and making our ways of working more efficient."
"The search and query language stand out for me because they are more flexible and composable compared to other tools I have used, such as QRadar or ArcSight."
"Free EDR telemetry integration into the SIEM, eliminating extra ingestion costs. Fast query speed on complex searches. Platform consolidation: EDR + SIEM + SOAR in one, replacing several isolated tools and reducing overall cost. Out-of-the-box detection rules you can enable almost immediately. Native Fusion SOAR with growing automation capabilities, including custom Python scripts in workflows. Continuous platform development that evolves with your needs. Case management built into the platform. Very stable, including the shared EDR agent. Highly scalable with plenty of connectors and integration methods. Straightforward migration from the previous EDR."
"I think everything is good about CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, as we have many features available."
"The feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM that I like the most is the advanced search, which works smoothly without hanging, allows manipulation of a huge amount of data, and returns results within seconds."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM played a significant role in my investigations by helping me move from searching across separate tools to investigating activity in a more unified interface."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM provides centralized visibility into security events, which helps analysts quickly identify related activities and investigate suspicious behavior."
 

Cons

"Some texts seem to report items as normal too quickly."
"The interface could be more intuitive."
"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. More transparency is needed in the interface as a lot of details are hidden behind the scenes, making them difficult or impossible to access."
"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."
"Regarding potential for optimization, I imagine more could be done with the platform itself through the consolidation of the different modules, so that you do not have to call up the same menu everywhere, such as Detections, but that this is also consolidated into the Next-Gen SIEM module."
"I have not observed a clear return on investment yet."
"Maybe I did not experiment or did not investigate, but if we can get alerts based upon the CPU utilizations and the metrics over there, probably that would make this one tool used for everything."
"I think CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM could improve with full integration with other tools."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM can be improved with the Fusion Workflow. Some integrations, specifically APIs, could be improved because there are so many different formats, so it's not consistent."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM can be improved by being more user-friendly."
"CrowdStrike support for this solution has been generally useful for technical questions and deployment guidance. However, more proactive guidance for complex migrations would be helpful."
"CQL is more complex than other query languages like KQL, which raises the learning curve for some team members. Charlotte AI is not yet delivering the quality of competing AI solutions. Licensing can be complex across modules (mitigated by a good account manager, but still a platform-side issue). No standout advantage over other top-tier SIEMs in actual investigations or incidents, as long as configuration is done properly — the differentiator is integration and speed, not analytical depth."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing is in line with other products."
