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.
Sheikh Abu Ayub Azad - PeerSpot reviewer
Great at managing cyber incidents; the technical support could be improved
The initial setup is easy, partly because LogRhythm is primarily based on the Windows platform. It's good to have two engineers for deployment but it can be done with one. It's more about the knowledge. Deployment is typically done in two or three different phases. It usually takes up to three full months to get good deployment. There's the initial onboarding of all the log sources, then collecting data in the data lake, followed a couple of weeks later with some minor tuning before the final tuneup.

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 endpoint and server management are the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"I haven't had any issues with bugs or glitches. I haven't had a problem with stability so far."
"The solution's reporting console is phenomenal, and I can get a lot of data out of it."
"The product provides good monitoring features."
"The EDR and XDR features have been most valuable."
"CrowdStrike has improved our incident response capabilities."
"The initial setup is very simple."
"I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"The tool's most valuable feature is server threat hunting."
"It has a lot of features. It has file integration monitoring."
"What I like most about LogRhythm UEBA is that it allows you to identify and analyze end-user behaviors and suspicious activities within the systems."
"LogRhythm UEBA’s best feature is the dashboard. It provides several graphs, charts, and event logs."
"The solution's most valuable features are the graphical user interface and the reporting."
"It is easy to monitor users and that is how the solution is adding value to our firm."
"The most valuable features are file activity monitoring and registry activity monitoring."
 

Cons

"I would like to see equal support across all versions. Aside from that, I would say most of the features are there."
"I recommend that some deep-dive trainings are required for the NG SIEM, specifically for their next-generation SIEM module, as they need some basic trainings for that."
"During these two years with CrowdStrike Falcon, I certainly faced some problems, including the known CrowdStrike outage, which was quite pinching and brought many of the Windows-related services to a halt just because of one bad configuration push from CrowdStrike tracks."
"In CrowdStrike, with the variety of security tools available, learning the different query languages can be challenging."
"Threat prevention should be their first priority, and false positive reductions are needed."
"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."
"I've found that CrowdStrike's technical support could benefit from increased technical expertise."
"We would like to be able to perform on-demand scanning, rather than relying on the scheduler."
"The product could be user-friendly for someone who doesn’t have any prior experience working with it."
"In general, if something needs to be improved in the algorithm, it would be the dashboards."
"It should have better mitigation with other solutions and be tightly integrated with other solutions. It has to be improved."
"It would be helpful if there were more guidance provided for integrating with unsupported devices."
"The product should improve its dashboards. Splunk has neat dashboards. Additionally, we would like to enhance the use cases provided by LogRhythm as its use case library is not as extensive as other tools. Its machine-learning capabilities need to improve when compared to other solutions. It lacks risk quantification in a single, transparent view for individuals such as CSOs."
"LogRhythm UEBA's data aggregation needs to be improved. Open-source users do not have much documentation available. Documentation is available only for enterprise users."
"The search feature needs to be improved."
"The on-premises LogRhythm is not very scalable. When considering packets per second or the MPS needed for additional logs such as web application logs, scalability is usually found in cloud products."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing and licensing seem to be in line with what they offer. We are a smaller organization, so pricing is important. Obviously, we would make a business case if it is something we really needed or felt that we needed. So, the pricing is in line with what we are getting from a product standpoint."
"Years ago, when we bought CrowdStrike, you got everything it had. I was a little concerned when they broke this out into a la carte modules where you can buy EDR, Spotlight, etc., picking and choosing off the menu. I was a little worried that the solution would get watered down. However, I realized in my previous organization when we had the full suite that there were a bunch of features in it that we didn't have time to operationalize. So, I warmed up to it. I get the whole, "Look, you can pick and choose. Okay, everybody buys a steak, but do you want mashed potatoes, or do you want lobster mac and cheese?" So, you can pick the sides that you want, so you can buy the solution that you want and operationalize versus paying a lot of money and getting a bunch of things, but not using 60 percent of the tools in the box."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive."
"The price is too high."
"With respect to pricing, my suggestion to others is to evaluate the environment and purchase what you need."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is one of the more expensive endpoint solutions on the market."
"The pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon is competitive."
"As LogRhythm UEBA is pretty expensive, I'd give its pricing a seven out of ten."
"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten. However, the cloud version is expensive. You need to hire professional services for deployment and migrations, which can be expensive."
"The pricing is nice when compared to other products in the industry."
"It is quite a budget-friendly product."
"LogRhythm UEBA's pricing is affordable for small and medium businesses."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis. It's not expensive compared to its competitors."
