"The ability to execute real-time response, or, that you can connect to the agent and see exactly what processes are operating, is the most important feature of this solution."
"As an EDR tool, we can integrate log management and event management. The solution deals with threats automatically, that's the advantage."

"There are some areas where some customers would prefer a different service."
"CrowdStrike Falcon needs to improve their host management system."
