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

"We are now able to find the root cause analysis on any threat. We can figure out where the issue came in versus just dealing with where it is at the moment."
"It's very easy to set up."
"The initial setup is a very fast process."
"This solution consistently releases improvements. They have communicated their next two years of development which is powerful and covers all of our needs."
"Falcon's best feature is its detection and blocking of threats."
"The most valuable feature is that we don't need to re-image machines as much as we had to."
"The machine learning behavior for anomaly detection is a valuable feature. It helps identify any suspicious or unusual activities within the system."
"We have a small IT Team, and this allows us to get sleep at night, knowing that someone else is taking care of any incidents that occur."
"We mainly use Jamf Protect to protect staff computers from malware and antivirus."
"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 product's initial setup phase has very simple steps."
"Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security."
"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The behavioral detection is valuable."
"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."
"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."
 

Cons

"CrowdStrike Falcon needs to improve their host management system."
"Unfortunately, native applications are not supported."
"Currently, I do not see any tangible benefits from CrowdStrike regarding incident improvement time, response time, or cost saving."
"CrowdStrike Falcon sometimes wrongly flags things as malicious. Let's say a user is active on Chrome only. Sometimes, our cross-segmenting will fetch from the backend data and show that it is malicious because of memory or CPU utilization."
"CrowdStrike needs to quit making up stuff about its features and functionality to bash its competition."
"The pricing structure should allow for some flexibility."
"On the firewall management side, there should be more granularity. There should also be more granularity for device control. Everything else is brilliant."
"The management of the solution could improve."
"Jamf Protect protects just Mac devices, and we would love to have one solution for other platforms and not just Mac devices."
"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"The solution's integration with other tools is slow."
"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 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 needs to improve its pricing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Annual licensing."
"I would like them to further reduce the price, because it is quite pricey at the moment."
"As I'm part of the technical team, not the budgeting team, I don't have information on CrowdStrike Falcon pricing."
"There is no license required to use this solution."
"Our company pays approximately US$ 65,000 annually for 900 machines."
"It is an expensive product, but I think it is well worth the investment."
"It's an expensive solution but you get a very good product for the price. Compared to other products, SentinelOne is definitely cheaper and the Microsoft E5 package is probably more expensive. Not many companies are willing to purchase CrowdStrike Falcon in Turkey due to the cost, but the market is changing."
"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."
"Jamf Protect is an expensive solution."
"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."
"The licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"Jamf Protect costs double the price that we were paying before."
