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.
ALEX LOGINOV - PeerSpot reviewer
Managing Partner at INTEGRISEC CONSULTING
Completely satisfied with the way the report is prepared and easy to setup
We did use it for threat detection, but not directly. I analyze multiple reports, including this one, and assess my client's infrastructure. I identify threats outlined in the reports that may be relevant to the client's infrastructure, and then I help them build detection use cases. There's no automation. We don't do anything automatically at this point. It's all manual and based on analysis. I can't integrate it into automatic feeds because the report outlines threats that may not be relevant to the client's infrastructure. So, I do the analysis and integrate it manually. I'm completely satisfied with the way the report is prepared. It's a good report.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is silent and sits on your system as one single agent."
"The detection is very effective."
"The managed services are distinguished, responsive, dynamic, flexible, and assertive when taking action."
"I like Falcon's threat detection and endpoint investigation features. It's a user-friendly solution."
"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."
"It helps us to identify the threats according to the behavior of any process that is running on any particular system. It helps immensely to identify any malicious behavior on any endpoints."
"Because it is security product and acts like an AIML smart product, not merely based on daily/weekly updates and signatures."
"From what we have seen, it is very scalable. We have recently acquired a company where someone had a ransomware attack when we joined networks. Within the course of just a few days, we were able to easily get CrowdStrike rolled out to about 300 machines. That also included the removal of that company's legacy anti-malware tool."
"We have found the site intelligence features to be the most valuable."
"The most valuable Group-IB Threat Intelligence features are their detections, especially in terms of account and card information leakage. This data sets Group-IB apart from some of the competition."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the sandbox."
"The totality of the recordings is quite important. The networks, the new threat actors, the new methods, tactics, techniques, and procedures."
"Threat Intelligence's best feature is threat activation."
 

Cons

"Technical support could be better than what is currently offered."
"The solution could improve by providing more types of reports because it's in the detection span you cannot re-export anything. If it could be exported to a CSV file directly there it would help a lot. I currently need to do this by API to get what I need."
"Whenever there is a feature release (upgrade) where we push to all the endpoints, it causes something to be blocked without us knowing."
"To simplify the budgeting process for our clients, CrowdStrike should consider offering bundled packages that include essential features."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could be enhanced by extending its security capabilities to include NDR and XDR."
"If we have a dashboard capability to uninstall agents, I think that would be great."
"Some policies in the tool need to be fine-tuned. Customized IOCs need to be improved since they have certain shortcomings."
"I would like to see a little bit more in the offline scanning ability. This just comes from my background in what I have done in other positions. They only scan on demand, so I always have this fear that we sometimes maybe email out a dormant virus and can be held liable for that. That is something where I would like to see a little bit more robustness to the tool."
"Threat Intelligence's OT security could be improved."
"The web intelligence could be improved. It is not as good as the intelligence from other solutions."
"The lack of appliance-based or on-premise options for this solution is its biggest downfall. Clients request them often."
"Group-IB Threat Intelligence should improve integration for SIEM and SOAR solutions."
"As the landscape evolves, they could provide a little more detail or specificity to map it to the MITRE ATT&CK framework."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The other administrator and I can log in to check the exact details of what happened, what was running, and what caused the detection. We know exactly what was happening on the end users PC and we can tell if it's something that we actually need or something that's malicious."
"As I'm part of the technical team, not the budgeting team, I don't have information on CrowdStrike Falcon pricing."
"We bought a very small number of licenses, then ran it for a year. We bought a 100 licenses for a year, so we didn't actually do a proof of concept. We just bought them. Then, the next year, we bought 10,000 licenses."
"The solution isn't very costly; it's affordable."
"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."
"The licensing model is straightforward. We choose the features we want and we then can download the package we want."
"All I can say about the licensing cost is that it's negotiable."
"The tool is a little bit expensive compared to other products, but I think it's okay owing to its quality."
"The pricing is alright. It's right on the mark."
"Threat Intelligence is costly, but it gives value for money."
"Group-IB Threat Intelligence's pricing is reasonable."
