Waleed Omar - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides effective real-time threat detection with potential for cost optimization
Some features such as device control, firewall management, and file analysis are standalone products that we need to purchase separately. If these features came out of the box within the product, it would be much more beneficial for us. Other providers such as SentinelOne include these features in their base product. We attended a CrowdStrike Falcon event where they discussed some shallow AI features, but we cannot see these in our panel yet. We work with different solutions such as Darktrace and SocRadar, where AI features are automatically displayed in our dashboards after release. However, for CrowdStrike Falcon, we cannot see these features.
Harshal Pachpande - PeerSpot reviewer
Automating intelligence workflows significantly reduces false positives and enhances response efficiency
ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) offers valuable workflows that integrate with our SOAR platform. It performs dedicated threat scoring capabilities which enrich internal indicators and automate response actions. This has been a key feature in our environment, which we have utilized for picking IOCs. The platform can be domain-specific and customer-specific, allowing data isolation for each customer. The scoring capabilities of ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) deserve a rating of nine out of ten. Its scalability and threat scoring capabilities have reduced false positives in our detection, as we dynamically change the IOCs which are updated daily through scheduled polling time over QRadar and SOAR.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"The most useful feature is that we do not need to install or keep signature files. Regular scanning that consumes a lot of computer resources is not needed."
"The DLP is the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon."

"All the features are beneficial."

"CrowdStrike Falcon serves as a next-gen AV, which basically does AI-based behavioral analysis to detect and act on malware or ransomware."

"The CrowdStrike Falcon dashboard is good, and we haven't had any problems with it."
"The product automatically generated a threat score based on the maliciousness of an IP."

Cons

"Too many false positives."
"This solution is relatively expensive."
"The product could be more accurate in terms of performance."
"Deployment in cloud environments is challenging. Another concern is CrowdStrike's GUI. It changes annually, making it hard to work and find options."
"The skillsets needed to run CrowdStrike Falcon are extensive if you want to get the most value out of the tool."
"Technical support could be better than what is currently offered."
"Any kind of integration that you want to do, such as using the API to connect to a SIEM, is complex and it will be expensive to do."
"CrowdStrike costs a little more than its competitors."
"Sometimes, when using the solution, it slows down, affecting our ability to mitigate threats."
"ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) could be improved by addressing challenges such as the customization over the tagging mechanism, where filtering based on individual tags is not available, limiting data export."
"It would be good to have more feeds and more integrated sources for enrichment."
"Support is an area with which nobody is ever fully satisfied, so it can be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"All I can say about the licensing cost is that it's negotiable."
"In my opinion, the pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon seems aggressive."
"There are three to four licensing models available to choose from for CrowdStrike Falcon. The price of CrowdStrike Falcon depends on the distributor and the reseller partner. The price we received was good."
"CrowdStrike is a reasonably priced tool."
"The solution's pricing is great for us."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. I don't think we are getting charged more than what it is worth. It is fair, but I do not like how it is a la carte. I realize they do that so other organizations can buy and get the agent, getting it cheaper than you could otherwise. However, if you want the main core package, which has all the main features with the exception of maybe the multi-cloud protections, that can get pricier for an organization. So, you have to pick and choose what you want. I do not care for a la carte pricing."
"Our licensing fees were between $50,000 and $60,000 per year, which was pretty expensive for a small business."
"The tool is expensive."
"I rate the product price as six on a scale of one to ten, where one is extremely expensive, and ten means it is cheap."
"The price could be better."
"The price of this product is in the mid-range, not too expensive, nor inexpensive."
