Helps users keep track of everything from one place
The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that we can track all of it in one place across all those different locations. Because it's cloud-based and reports up to the cloud, we also have access to the back end, and an incident response team monitors all incidents. We also have an escalation process in place. From my perspective, there are other pieces of CrowdStrike that the security architect team uses as well, but I don't get involved with those as much. I usually just wait for the end results or the notification if I need to get involved if there is an incident.
MiguelPurizaca - PeerSpot reviewer
Reliable with great technical support and excellent alerts
The solution would be better if there was some kind of integration with network equipment so that we can also have visibility of everything related to the firewall or the routers or switches - not only the computers but also on other network equipment. If they could provide a solution for smartphones and for tablets that would be very helpful as we have some people accessing information from these types of devices. It could improve the security in terms of coverage as we both computers and mobile phones or tablets in use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The AI and the group knowledge base that they get from having multiple clients in the cloud is very useful to us."
"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 continuous improvement in detections and response times is valuable. They are more focused on threats that come from the cloud, not only that we see."
"The most valuable feature is that it has a zero-day approach. It does not work with the signature itself. It looks into what is happening on an endpoint and protects you better against threats that are not yet known but are captured in a signature. It provides far better detection than when it is only signature-based. You get much quicker protection against any new threat. This is the most important feature of the CrowdStrike solution."
"Two of the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete are the remote terminal and unlimited IoCs."
"It has good security features."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete's most valuable features are efficient dashboards and their ease of management."
"The stability is very reliable."
 

Cons

"They need to continuously integrate with other security tools such as CyberArk or Mimecast, to cover the entire IT infrastructure."
"It would be better if they offered other language options. It's only in English, and in Latin America, we mostly speak Spanish."
"Their endpoint solution is excellent. But I would like to see them improve their HDR, as well as their DLP (Data Loss Prevention)."
"It really is an expensive product in the South African market. And they need people in our country. Their partner program isn't yet where it should be. They need a lot of work and there's a lot of improvement needed."
"The performance slows down by between 10% and 40%, depending on what type of work the machine is doing."
"The training provided could be better. There is a need to have more training to allow us to fine-tune our settings. Not that training is not comprehensive; they do provide training in hotels where we can go and see videos and other helpful information. However, they should be providing hands-on experience to the system administrators because this would be more useful. The training is normally for corporations and should be available for personal users as well."
"The support is good from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. We call them and we have a response immediately. They could improve by increasing their knowledge."
"What could be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the threat hunting feature and the insights it provides, in particular, the variable analysis feature. Protection against zero-day threats and sandboxing could also be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. If you compare it with other solutions, it can go head-to-head, but the features I mentioned still need improvement."
"If they could provide a solution for smartphones and for tablets that would be very helpful as we have some people accessing information from these types of devices."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not cheap, and it is not overpriced. It positions itself in the upper half of pricing in the market. You can find a product that claims to do the same and is super cheap, but it'll be not at all good. You can find something that says it does everything in the world, and it is the best thing since sliced bread, but it would be incredibly expensive. Falcon Complete is neither of those. It is always best to go somewhere in the middle, but it is not in the middle. It is in the upper half. So, it is by no means cheap, but it is worth it. Its pricing is well fixed. Given what you get in return, you wouldn't feel bad paying for it. They have a great licensing model. You can add extra bells and whistles if you want. There is that ability to reduce the price by turning off certain features if you wish."
"Pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is competitive. It's a cheaper solution when you compare it with others, and on a scale of one to five, I'm rating its pricing a four. You also don't need to pay extra for its features. CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is perfect."
"Falcon Complete isn't too pricy."
"There is a license needed to use the solution. The price of the solution is fair."
"CrowdStrike offers solutions with the same functionality for both large enterprises and small to medium organizations with competitive pricing."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very expensive in comparison to Bitdefender."
"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."
