Chintan-Vyas - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to set up with good behavior-based analysis but needs a single-click recovery option
Most organizations are currently looking for a scheduled scan to meet their compliance needs. Other players like Symantec and Trend Micro, FireEye, et cetera, are still providing the signature-based regular scheduled scans also, which is not available in CrowdStrike. That is one parameter that we feel should be there in CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike is only working on the dynamic or the files under execution. CrowdStrike is not scanning the static files. The product could be more accurate in terms of performance. We'd like to have a single-click recovery option. With some machines getting corrupted by malware, we need an easy way to start with a blank slate if things happen. That one feature should be there in the EDR.

Peace of mind in identifying compromises in your M365 tenants
Huntress Managed ITDR examines various signals from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action. It's a comprehensive solution covering endpoints and cloud tenants, offering peace of mind. I recognized its benefits immediately, as it provides protection against M365 identity compromises, like admin account breaches.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The OverWatch is the most valuable feature to me. It's a 24x7 monitoring service, and when they see anything suspicious in my environment, they will investigate."
"It has an extremely low footprint, so it has got minimum impact on the user end points in terms of CPU and memory usage."
"Regarding features, I appreciate its integration capabilities with identity providers...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon include Falcon Fusion workflows and endpoint detection capabilities."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy. That's very important for me. False-positive are very bad for everyone. As we are a financial institution, it's even worse. I like Falcon because it's very accurate."
"I have found the connection to search the hosts for detections very useful in CrowdStrike Falcon."
"The managed services are distinguished, responsive, dynamic, flexible, and assertive when taking action."
"The most valuable features are the complete IPS and IDS."
"The centralized management with the EDR and ITDR is beneficial."
"I rate the overall solution as a ten out of ten."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"Huntress Managed ITDR examines various nulls from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action."
 

Cons

"On the firewall management side, there should be more granularity. There should also be more granularity for device control. Everything else is brilliant."
"The product could be more accurate in terms of performance."
"The UI is not efficient."
"It would be nice if they did have some sort of Active Directory tie-in, whether that be Azure or on-prem. Sometimes, it is difficult for us to determine if we are missing any endpoints or servers in CrowdStrike. We honestly don't have a great inventory, but it would be nice if CrowdStrike had a way to say this is everything in your environment, Active Directory-wise, and this is what doesn't have sensors. They try to do that now with a function that they have built-in, but I have been unsuccessful in having it help us identify what needs a sensor. So, better visibility of what doesn't have a sensor in our environment would be helpful."
"The overall cost of CrowdStrike Falcon could be reduced."
"I would also like to see the endpoint firewall component produce some level of logging and feedback."
"The Integration with tools, SOC tools, could be better."
"They respond quickly on the weekdays, but the weekend response times are slower."
"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"The product needs further maturity, with some improvements in the user interface."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are on an annual subscription for the solution. There are not any additional costs."
"The price is fixed with no room for negotiation."
"The more endpoints an organization adds the cheaper the cost."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive than other EDR solutions with similar features."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's price is good."
"This solution offers annual subscriptions. The pricing for this solution could be reduced."
"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."
"As I'm part of the technical team, not the budgeting team, I don't have information on CrowdStrike Falcon pricing."
