Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have seen a reduction to the performance hit to our operating systems."
"We like Falcon's network visibility. We can see how threats are evolving on PCS or in the company network. The solution's real-time incident response is very fast."
"The most valuable feature is its threat analysis."
"Its integration capability is valuable. It integrates easily with any OS."
"Falcon has the capacity to identify potential problems quickly. The administrator can deploy the agent, and the users cannot change it. This assures you that the agent remains on this device. Also, the agent can act preemptively to provide alerts about potential problems."
"The detection is very reliable. Also, OverWatch is a great feature."
"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 threat intelligence is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable features are the rollback feature, it's important for us. The AI models and are good."
 

Cons

"We sometimes get false positives."
"Some of Falcon's features are a bit pricey."
"I would also like to see the endpoint firewall component produce some level of logging and feedback."
"Falcon could be improved with more function on the mobile end of things and better optimization with mobile devices."
"I have experience with a product called SentinelOne, which has a feature that allows for the customization of query languages. I would like to see such a feature for CloudStrike."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's GUI requires improvement for user-friendliness."
"It would be nice if the dashboard had some more information upfront, and looked a little better."
"The product could be more accurate in terms of performance."
"We have a lot of false positives we see in the dashboard. I think this is the only problem we are facing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is reasonable."
"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."
"I'm not directly involved in sales, so I can't comment on the exact price, but I know the price decreases the higher the quantity we purchase."
"The solution isn't very costly; it's affordable."
"The pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon is competitive."

"The cost of CrowdStrike Falcon in Latin America seems high relative to the economic conditions in the region."
"I would like them to further reduce the price, because it is quite pricey at the moment."
