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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We like Falcon's network visibility. We can see how threats are evolving on PCS or in the company network. The solution's real-time incident response is very fast."
"At this point what is most valuable is the interface, which is easy to navigate."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is a very light solution. It does not use too much processor or RAM."
"The detection is very reliable. Also, OverWatch is a great feature."
"There's almost no maintenance required. It's very low if there's any at all."
"Scalability hasn't been an issue for us."
"The initial setup is a very fast process."
"It's very easy to set up."
"The tool's installation, integration, and playbooks are very straightforward."
"We have been able to see a return on investment as our clients believe in us more."
"I like their customer support."
"It's a solid platform and is stable enough. It is not complicated and is easy to use."
"The product automatically generated a threat score based on the maliciousness of an IP."
"The most valuable features are ease of use and the ability to customize it."
"ThreatConnect has a highly user-friendly interface."
 

Cons

"Support, particularly related to after-sales and after deployment, could be improved a bit. If you need to connect to support, it takes at least a day to reach the support team and get a proper reply."
"In the future release of CrowdStrike Falcon, they should add a sandbox feature."
"I would love to see more investment in Insight because CrowdStrike have an opportunity to potentially displace some of the vulnerability management vendors with the visibility they can see over time. I want to see them continue to evolve, e.g., what other things can they disrupt which are operational things we have to continue to do as an organization."
"Enhancements in reporting and forensic analysis could benefit the product."
"We encounter occasional issues, such as when disabling network access for a host that uses CrowdStrike."
"CrowdStrike Falcon sometimes wrongly flags things as malicious. Let's say a user is active on Chrome only. Sometimes, our cross-segmenting will fetch from the backend data and show that it is malicious because of memory or CPU utilization."
"Forensic controls have room for improvement."
"For CrowdStrike to work, all the machines need to have an internet connection. This makes it challenging to assist customers without an internet connection. We would like to have a mechanism or relay to make this possible."
"Integration is an area that could use some improvement."
"I couldn’t get any training videos online when I was working with the tool."
"I would like to see improvements in the time zone support of their customer service, considering users are from different time zones."
"It would be good to have more feeds and more integrated sources for enrichment."
"Sometimes, when using the solution, it slows down, affecting our ability to mitigate threats."
"They should make it a little bit easier to generate events and share them with the community"
"Support is an area with which nobody is ever fully satisfied, so it can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am not aware of the price, but I believe that it is among the most expensive XDRs out there. Of course, this is dependent on the features you choose. Depending on the features, the price might increase."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive."
"The pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon is competitive."
"The tool is a little bit expensive compared to other products, but I think it's okay owing to its quality."
"Crowdstrike Falcon is relatively cheap."
"Years ago, when we bought CrowdStrike, you got everything it had. I was a little concerned when they broke this out into a la carte modules where you can buy EDR, Spotlight, etc., picking and choosing off the menu. I was a little worried that the solution would get watered down. However, I realized in my previous organization when we had the full suite that there were a bunch of features in it that we didn't have time to operationalize. So, I warmed up to it. I get the whole, "Look, you can pick and choose. Okay, everybody buys a steak, but do you want mashed potatoes, or do you want lobster mac and cheese?" So, you can pick the sides that you want, so you can buy the solution that you want and operationalize versus paying a lot of money and getting a bunch of things, but not using 60 percent of the tools in the box."
"The pricing on CrowdStrike is per license. It was about $42 per seat yearly."
"Annual licensing."
"The tool is expensive."
"The price of this product is in the mid-range, not too expensive, nor inexpensive."
"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."
