Alerts and notifications have enhanced malware detection capabilities
These features are probably the most essential for me. I find the notifications and alerts received from CrowdStrike server to be invaluable. They analyze Falcon and provide output regarding any kind of infected malware devices or files. We have seen returns on our investment in more than thousands of instances, which is the most important part for us.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"On a scale of 1-10, I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox a 10 out of 10."
"I find the notifications and alerts received from CrowdStrike server to be invaluable."
"I don't have any suggestions, because the solution is company-maintained and I believe the company is adopting every feature based on their needs and requirements."
"We have seen returns on our investment in more than thousands of instances, which is the most important part for us."
"CrowdStrike is an excellent tool for managing all endpoint-related security tasks."
"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."
"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

"While CrowdStrike is a powerful tool, the user interface is cluttered with many features, making it challenging to navigate."
"The CrowdStrike support is not good; the support team does not come remotely, and we repeatedly ask them to collect logs and analyze them before providing a solution via email."
"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."
"The detailed report is very valuable, but not always accurate. This is a great resource to share amongst team members and stakeholders after analysis."
"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."
"As of now, there is nothing specific in need of improvement."
"While CrowdStrike is a powerful tool, the user interface is cluttered with many features, making it challenging to navigate."
"The product needs integration with SOAR products to add more integration points, which is important for various clients."
"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."
