Provides centralized visibility and real-time threat detection across multiple cloud accounts
Regarding how CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security can be improved, I would say they can improve their support. There were a couple of cases where we needed to escalate issues in order to get proper support. That part could use some tweaking on their end. Additionally, the recent incident during the last summer literally impacted our systems. We had some of our workloads that affected the business, and it was a difficult experience. Apart from that, it is a good tool and the experience with CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security has been excellent. We did not find any kind of issues, but if they could improve their response to security-related incidents and provide on-time support or better understand our concerns and address them accordingly, it could be very helpful. Regarding needed improvements, I think they should enhance automatic alerting with CI/CD scanning and reporting capabilities. Additionally, it would be better to implement Falcon sensor health monitoring so agents are always active. We could know how it is behaving and how it is treating our environment. That could be a little helpful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the auto-detection capability for threat hunting and issuing advisories on remedies."
"We like the solution's management and monitoring tools for our network. We use it to monitor our network between workstations and outside our organization. The AI provides useful visualizations of our network on a dashboard."
"I think the overall solution should be rated a ten out of ten."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The initial setup is easy ."
"There is a lot that it can do, but endpoint protection is the main thing about it. The fact that it uses machine learning and artificial intelligence to monitor and remediate the issues in real-time is probably the bread and butter of the product."
"The most valuable features are the real-time response, which allows me to log into a machine to pull files and check signatures for malicious activities, and the ability to restrict USB block storage usage on endpoints by policy."
"Cloud security is one valuable feature. Spotlight is the other one. There is also vulnerability management and a couple of more features."
"Our business emails are very important and Trend Micro Cloud App Security has provided a high level of protection. Additionally, there are updating the solution frequently."
"The solution is easy to integrate."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Cloud App Security is its stability across all platforms."
"Trend Micro Cloud App is easy to use and easy to install."
"I find Trend Micro Cloud App Security useful for scanning our email boxes. We can scan them one by one, which is a good feature. It's not just gateway-level protection - we integrate the email system with it. They have special protection and parameters for phishing emails."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"It has more intelligence features than other vendors."
"This is a very dependable solution and we are able to have a lot of Trend Micro security products integrated between each other."
 

Cons

"It gets the work done, but the main problem with the solution is that if you remediate anything, it takes 45 days for you to get any of the features displayed on the dashboard. This is the real weakness of CrowdStrike. Their customer support is also not ready to help with it. If you remediate any cloud vulnerability that they are giving you, such as removing a host from your organization, it takes around 45 days for them to remove it from their console."
"There is room for improvement in the solution's ability to handle Linux systems."
"One area for improvement in Falcon Cloud Security is the support portal."
"I would not say the tool's integration capabilities were straightforward because the complexity depends on the volume of the data."
"It would be more convenient if there was an easier way to install CrowdStrike, perhaps through better integration with Active Directory."
"The user interface needs improvement as it's sometimes difficult to locate specific dashboards or reports."
"The UI part needs to be improved."
"In terms of improvement, CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security could expand into the remediation path."
"For improvements, I think it would be great if Trend Micro Cloud App Security could enhance their product to be a single SASE solution. It should be similar to competitors like Palo Alto."
"There is room for improvement in the DLP component of Trend Micro Cloud App Security."
"The cost of the license is on the high side."
"The price of the solution could improve by being lower."
"The pricing of this solution is quite high, about double what other similar solutions cost."
"The granulation of the policy setup needs to be better. Right now, it is too basic."
"They should provide separate corporate-level licenses for two to three instances."
"In the next release, I would like to see the cost go down."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CrowdStrike Falcon is very expensive."
"I am not the one who handled the pricing. A different team worked on it, but it is pretty expensive."
"The pricing is fair for what you get. I'd rate them a solid nine out of ten in terms of pricing."
"It is expensive, but it adds value."
"Its price is moderate."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is pricy."
"It's an expensive package but does what it says it will do."
"The price is not too high, it is okay."
"The pricing of the solution could be better."
"The product's pricing is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"The cost of the license is on the high side. It's a yearly subscription."
"The price of Trend Micro Cloud App Security is expensive for regular users. There are not any hidden fees. First-time users of the solution should purchase implementation packages or professional services."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
