Muhammad  Fahad - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhanced security team efficiency and proactive threat management with room to improve alert management and cost-efficiency
There are several issues we are facing with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR, including data overload, noise, and false positive alerts. We experience alert fatigue, contextual gaps, integration complexity, and timeliness of intelligence challenges in our environment. Areas that should be improved include noise reduction, prioritization, real-time delivery, and advanced threat coverage. The filtering algorithm should be improved to address these concerns.
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 most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the overall endpoint protection."
"The real-time response features are valuable for us."
"It works as a security device and provides an extra layer of security to our devices and computers."
"I would recommend Falcon Complete for anyone looking for a cheaper alternative that's almost the same quality as Cortex."
"The features I have found valuable are artificial intelligence, which protects us against malicious forces of any kind, and device control through the remote execution tool."
"We found the initial setup to be quick and easy for the most part."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the lightweight design, easily manageable portal, and minimal IT maintenance required."
"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 stability is very reliable."
 

Cons

"Its reporting feature could be user-friendly."
"Falcon Complete's user interface isn't very user-friendly, especially for writing rules."
"The customization could be tweaked. We can do a bunch of custom dashboards. However, the one thing that I'm not a fan of is when you go to do an investigation, the way that the processes are laid out on the screen is very bland looking. While the information is there, it could be laid out better."
"The downside that we see with CrowdStrike is that it is not part of a broader ecosystem. It is an endpoint product. They don't sell firewalls or a broader cybersecurity ecosystem. Some of the behavioral detections could be more robust. It does a good job of stopping common tools and techniques, but when it comes to using Windows utilities, such as PowerShell, etc, it doesn't stop them. These are some of the things where we have been able to get past it. An argument there can be that these are administrative tools, not malware, so maybe it is not its job to stop it, but we see some of the competitive products doing a very good job of detecting behaviors as opposed to malware."
"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."
"I would love for the threat intelligence part to be more globalized to provide a tailored response to types of malware and ransomware that are trending in other regions. For example, they can add a feature to tell us that there are separate attacks in South Asia or East Asia occurring at these times, so we can supply those things to our environment and protect ourselves."
"Some dashboards can be very complex, but once you get to know them, it is very logical."
"Patch management in vulnerabilities needs 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 expensive, but looking at the capabilities that it brings, it is reasonable. There are no additional costs to the licensing costs. If you increase the number of licenses, support is included."
"While CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is expensive, it offers great features and functionality."
"At approximately €60 per machine, per year, I think that it's a good price point."
"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."
"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."
"We pay 40,000 euros to use this solution."
"The licenses are sold per user."
"The pricing could be lower."
