Unified threat analysis has strengthened detection accuracy and accelerated incident response
The multi-platform analysis in the product is very effective, as it helps to identify threats through powerful scanning and detection, and in response as well. Comparing to other products, this product performs very well in terms of stability and detection, which is important because other products may encounter problems in operations. This product is powerful in detection, which is the most important part because any customer wants a solution that detects what's happening. This is the real strength of CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox. It's really powerful in detection; it detects any minor change, any minor injection in the data or whatsoever. The visibility is really good. CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox has one unified platform to manage everything, which is really nice. It has one agent and one console. One agent to install in the machine, and this one agent will give capabilities. I can have visibility into one console, and through this one console, I can do multiple things and manage multiple solutions within CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox. I know that the memory forensic feature in CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox is well-regarded, as CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox is really famous for this. It's one of the most well-known companies in forensics, and many customers are getting CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox involved when they are in threat or when they face a threat. They do their forensics in a really good way, and they are reaching a very powerful result. I have experienced this with multiple customers who asked CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox to interfere and do the forensics, knowing exactly what amount of harm or what amount of breach has been done into their network. CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox can manage this and give them full visibility about what has been done, what has been remediated, and what has been lost. The API integrations they offer are extensive and improve threat analysis and collaboration in general, as they have a wide range of integrations with multiple products and multiple vendors, multiple solutions. Throughout the one year and a half, I didn't face any scenario with integrations except for the file monitoring for the AIX. This is the only case I have faced with them, as they don't support IBM AIX file monitoring. But aside from this, their integration spectrum is really wide, really big, and strong, allowing them to integrate with multiple products.

We use this solution for authorization and more on the false positive verification IP tracing is the most valuable feature. The technical support needs improvement.  I have been using VMRay for two and a half years. The technical support team is not good.  Negative The initial setup is…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have seen returns on our investment in more than thousands of instances, which is the most important part for us."
"I find the notifications and alerts received from CrowdStrike server to be invaluable."
"CrowdStrike is an excellent tool for managing all endpoint-related security tasks."
"The most valuable features include malware detection, threat rating related to files, studying the metadata of the files, and providing threat feeds to the endpoint."
"It provides a safe way to analyze and review documents that may have sensitive information without uploading them to a public platform. Additionally, provides an easy way to spin up a VM without requiring additional resources and patching of personal or team-managed virtualization."
"Since I'm working with CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox, I would say that the solution enhances a company's threat intelligence, as it's a very powerful solution."
"The tool helps to obtain information about potential company breaches. The malware analysis capability is very effective. We check files from various sources, such as emails, USBs, and cloud drives."
"The cloud deployment of CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox benefits my organization because we can access it from anywhere and at any time we can get the information."
"IP tracing is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"The product needs integration with SOAR products to add more integration points, which is important for various clients."
"As for room for improvement, we can mention that maybe some additional integrations will be beneficial to cover the whole use cases."
"One of the valuable features of the solution is to impressively detect threats without any impact on the end point performance. The solution ensures that the end users have a seamless experience."
"While CrowdStrike is a powerful tool, the user interface is cluttered with many features, making it challenging to navigate."
"The technical support is medium - they could improve, as communication is sometimes slow or late. There are missing detections that other tools catch. For improvements, we need easier ways to view full incident information and better presentation of data. Adding risk indicators for incidents would help decide on immediate actions. The platform should provide more information about incident risks to help less knowledgeable staff make decisions."
"The detailed report is very valuable, but not always accurate. This is a great resource to share amongst team members and stakeholders after analysis."
"One area that could be improved about CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox is its console; it should be more user-friendly."
"As of now, there is nothing specific in need of improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox is not cheap; however, whether it should be more affordable is a decision best left to the company."
"Price-wise, the tool is a bit above mid-range, maybe 7 out of 10, where 10 is the most expensive."
"The solution is overly priced."
