Sachin Bode - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Manager at IFB Industries Ltd
Managed detection has strengthened our defenses and has provided real-time threat visibility
Sometimes we are facing performance issues with the end-user systems, and sometimes it is blocking a few of our applications, which we later resolve with the team. Recently, we were having our call center application running on the systems, which suddenly stopped working because CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR was not allowing it to run. After removing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR, it started working, and then later we added the application URLs and the communication URLs to CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR allow list, so it started working. Some processor utilization needs to be dropped because now Windows systems are consuming more CPU and RAM than earlier. Windows 10 was fine, but Windows 11 is consuming more CPU and RAM. If CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR is contributing to consuming the resources, then other applications are taking a lot of time to run. In Windows 11, we are facing this issue sometimes, and we need more powerful systems than earlier. I would also appreciate improvements on the pricing side. Some of our locations where people are isolated, we are not buying CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR due to the pricing. If there is a nominal reduction in the price, then we will go for everyone in the organization.

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

"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."
"EDR and Next-Generation Antivirus (NGAV) are good features. The Spotlight feature is also good, and it also can detect patching-related vulnerabilities."
"CrowdStrike is actually probably the most well-rounded endpoint platform."
"I would recommend Falcon Complete for anyone looking for a cheaper alternative that's almost the same quality as Cortex."
"The most valuable feature is AML-based threat detection."
"The solution is quite flexible."
"Their intelligence is really good. The security whitepapers that they write are outstanding. They handle it all for the clients. CrowdStrike Complete is managed by CrowdStrike. They only call a client if there is a problem that they can't address. They pretty much contain and eradicate. This is not something that every vendor provides."
"The stability is very reliable."
"I must say that I am very happy with the service they provide."
 

Cons

"As of recent, their MITRE scores were not as good as in years past."
"It should be integrated with AI and ML."
"We'd like the pricing to be a bit lower in the future."
"We find CrowdStrike Falcon Complete to have a steeper learning curve when it is deployed in certain industries such as finance and retail."
"The reporting could be better. It's not as good as it could be."
"The installation could always be a bit easier. You need to install it manually at the endpoint."
"The solution is costlier compared to other solutions, which may be a concern for price-sensitive customers."
"The performance slows down by between 10% and 40%, depending on what type of work the machine is doing."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The average price is approximately $500 per customer."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very expensive in comparison to Bitdefender."
"The licensing cost for this solution is $5000 per license, with each machine requiring its own license."
"Its price is very high. CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is 50% more expensive than Cisco AMP for Endpoints."
"If you are looking from an IT standpoint, you get what you pay for. There is proactive monitoring in addition to the insurance policy. They do that better than others. Would you like it cheaper? Yes, but at what cost?"
"We pay $50,000 for the 200 endpoints we have."
"There is a standard license to use CrowdStrike Falcon Complete."
"I think the pricing is a little high."
