Featured Reviews

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.
Amit-Sarkar - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows users to easily monitor miscellaneous activities occurring in their environments
The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required. It would be good if Jamf Protect could be integrated with Jamf Pro and used as a single solution. There are a couple of improvements where there is a need to change a few things. There are also a couple of things that need to be removed and merged into the main tool, Jamf Pro. The solution's technical team needs to improve because somewhere I felt from my personal experience that unless Jamf's team puts in an effort to understand the requirements of its customers, help can't be provided. The help provided by Jamf's team is on the basis of what they know, so I feel that they need to put a bit of effort into understanding what customers expect from the product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is crowdsourcing intelligence."
"Everything we've done with CrowdStrike is due to Arctic Wolf. We don't even need to get alerts from CrowdStrike anymore. It'll send those to Arctic Wolf, and then Arctic Wolf analyzes those and let us know if there's a major issue."
"The CS falcon agent is a lightweight agent compared with other agents of EDR products."
"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."
"The stability is good; we haven't experienced any glitches or bugs."
"I like the Overwatch feature the most."
"I like the dashboard nature of it. Everything is clickable, linkable, and information is easy to obtain and find. How it presents that information is probably the biggest win as far as the information correlation aspect. The presentation of it is very good."
"The main feature we rely on is the product's intelligence. We appreciate the advice from the team during implementation. One of the main reasons we chose this product is its compatibility with Office 365."
"Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security."
"The behavioral detection is valuable."
"The quick updates are really good. If a new OS update drops today, I'll have the Jamf Protect update within a few hours. It's also compatible with all Mac OS versions, and there's zero lag or performance impact."
"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."
"We mainly use Jamf Protect to protect staff computers from malware and antivirus."
"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The product's initial setup phase has very simple steps."
"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."
 

Cons

"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."
"There are some aspects of the UI that could use some improvement, e.g., working in groups. I build a group, then I have to manually assign prevention policies, update policies, etc., but there is no function to copy that group. So, if I wanted to make a subgroup for troubleshooting or divide workstations into groups of laptops and desktops, then I have to manually build a brand new group. I can't just copy a build from one to another. Additionally, in order to do any work within a group, I have to first do the work on the respective prevention policy page or individual policy page, then remove the group if the group is assigned to a different prevention policy, remove the prevention policy, and then add the new one in. So, it can get a little hectic. It would be easier if I could add and remove things from the group page rather than having to go into the policy pages to do it."
"CrowdStrike should provide better visibility in its reporting. There should be more forensic details about detected threats."
"The solution needs to have integration with on-premises security devices and security facilities. That means all the security products, including the perimeter firewall, the DMZ."
"Threat prevention should be their first priority, and false positive reductions are needed."
"I would also like to see the endpoint firewall component produce some level of logging and feedback."
"The ability to receive text alerts natively in the console would be kind of cool."
"Falcon could be improved with more function on the mobile end of things and better optimization with mobile devices."
"I'd really like to see some data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. More visibility into user activity on laptops would be helpful."
"Beginners need initial training."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The solution's integration with other tools is slow."
"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."
"Jamf Protect needs to improve its pricing."
"The scope of improvement will fall under the support hierarchy that the tool offers to the latest version that Apple derives for any of the latest operating systems to launch."
"Jamf Protect protects just Mac devices, and we would love to have one solution for other platforms and not just Mac devices."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced."
"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 cost is usually a challenge in the industry. I think we pay around sixty-eight dollars."
"Crowdstrike Falcon is relatively cheap."
"The pricing on CrowdStrike is per license. It was about $42 per seat yearly."
"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."
"The solution's pricing is great for us."
"Annual licensing."
"Jamf Protect is an expensive solution."
"Jamf Protect costs double the price that we were paying before."
"The licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"It's significantly cheaper than other options like ApexOne."
"I rate the product price as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
