Chetan Bhati - PeerSpot reviewer
Human Toxicology Engineer at Arrow PC Network Pvt Ltd
Cloud-native security has improved real-time threat detection and streamlined daily operations
While CrowdStrike Falcon is strong overall, there are a few areas where it could be improved. First, the user interface can be a bit complex for new users. Sometimes, navigating through different sections and understanding detailed alerts takes time, especially for teams without deep security expertise. The cost is also something to consider, as the features and additional modules can increase pricing, which may be a challenge for smaller teams. Additionally, some integrations with simpler reporting would be helpful. The onboarding process for new users is a bit challenging for beginners to understand all features and workflows in the product. More simplified documentation, step-by-step guides, and real-world examples could help new users get comfortable faster. A structured onboarding or basic training module would be very useful for teams who are new to endpoint security tools. In addition, having more in-product guidance and tooltips within the dashboard could make navigation easier and reduce the learning curve. Overall, improving training resources and onboarding support would make the platform more user-friendly, especially for new users.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"CrowdStrike was more innovative and it seemed to be a better long-term product."
"It has definitely minimized resources. When everything was on-prem, there was a lot more work maintaining it. One of the big value tickets: I don't have lists of hundreds of exceptions for certain applications that I have to maintain, add, delete, and move. The very nature of the product has lessened my workload considerably."
"The product provides good monitoring features."
"It's given me a level of confidence that my network is secure — the fact that it's not finding anything; however, I am not experiencing the issues that competitors are saying I should be experiencing."
"CrowdStrike enables the infrastructure managers to visualize all the events and get information about the network."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is a very light solution. It does not use too much processor or RAM."
"The automatic alert feature is the most important feature of the solution."
"We just moved over from McAfee to CrowdStrike, which detected a lot of things that McAfee did not."
"The totality of the recordings is quite important. The networks, the new threat actors, the new methods, tactics, techniques, and procedures."
"We have found the site intelligence features to be the most valuable."
"Threat Intelligence's best feature is threat activation."
"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."
"Threat Intelligence is very stable."
"The cost of the solution versus the cost of an incident that may have been prevented with it shows a very high ROI."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the sandbox."
 

Cons

"Basically, they don't cover legacy OS or applications. That's the only issue we're concerned about."
"It can be expensive depending on the features you select."
"I would like them to improve the correlation of data in the search algorithms. When we run an investigation, malware, phishing, etc., I want to look at multiple endpoints at once to correlate that data to see the likenesses, e.g., how are they not alike or what systems and processes are running across those systems? I don't want to have to run the same search in their Spotlight module five, 10, 15, or 100 times to get 100 different results, copy that data out, and then correlate it on my own. In a very simple way, I want to be able to load up a comma-delimited list giving me the spotlight data on these X amount of hosts, letting me search for it quickly. We have had to go back to CrowdStrike, and say, "Our search are taking far too long for even one host." They did bump up the cores and that did improve performance, but it is still kind of slow to get that Spotlight data. That is probably our biggest pain point. I think that needs some help. I understand this kind of information access is probably not the easiest thing to do. It is probably a big ask depending on how their back-end is setup."
"The technical support could improve because I am in India and the support I receive is from the UK or Australia. It is difficult to manage the time difference. The service could be faster. However, when we do have the support they are knowledgeable."
"We sometimes get false positives."
"They should provide us with good visibility for everything."
"This solution lacks basic functionality, such as being able to perform on-demand scanning."
"There are a few features that could be added, as mentioned."
"Threat Intelligence's OT security could be improved."
"As the landscape evolves, they could provide a little more detail or specificity to map it to the MITRE ATT&CK framework."
"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."
"The web intelligence could be improved. It is not as good as the intelligence from other solutions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing model is straightforward. We choose the features we want and we then can download the package we want."
"The solution's pricing is great for us."
"We pay between $30-50 per user for a yearly license, which is more expensive than SentinelOne or Bitdefender. However, CrowdStrike gives better value for money."
"Our licensing fees were between $50,000 and $60,000 per year, which was pretty expensive for a small business."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"Annual licensing."
"With respect to pricing, my suggestion to others is to evaluate the environment and purchase what you need."
"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."
"Threat Intelligence is costly, but it gives value for money."
"Group-IB Threat Intelligence's pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing is alright. It's right on the mark."
