CrowdStrike Falcon enhances productivity and security, reducing costs and downtime while efficiently managing threats with rapid deployment and detection.
Sentiment score
5.6
Organizations report mixed ROI from Oracle Identity Governance, noting benefits in automation and flexibility, but concerns about expenses and financial returns.
CrowdStrike Falcon saves time and offers good value for money, especially for enterprise companies, because it can stop breaches.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
7.0
CrowdStrike Falcon support is valued for responsiveness and expertise, though growth causes delays; premium support is highly rated.
Sentiment score
5.3
Oracle Identity Governance support receives mixed reviews, with users often relying on community resources due to variable service quality.
On a scale of one to ten, I would rate the technical support as a 10 because they resolve many issues for us.
The CrowdStrike team is very efficient; I would rate them ten out of ten.
They could improve by initiating calls for high-priority cases instead of just opening tickets.
The team is not very knowledgeable and takes too long to respond.
While they are familiar with me, the team is not large enough, which impacts their availability.
I am happy with the technical support from Oracle, it is very good support.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.9
CrowdStrike Falcon's scalability and adaptability make it ideal for diverse platforms, though costs may limit expansive deployments.
Sentiment score
7.0
Oracle Identity Governance excels in scalability with proper configuration, though some users face challenges as load increases.
It has adequate coverage and is easy to deploy.
In terms of scalability, I find CrowdStrike to be stable, and I have not encountered any limitations with it.
There's no scalability limitation from CrowdStrike itself, as it just requires agent deployment.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.1
CrowdStrike Falcon is highly regarded for its stability, efficiency, and reliability, with minor update issues quickly resolved.
Sentiment score
6.2
Oracle Identity Governance stability varies with configuration and expertise, facing challenges like memory leaks and high-demand instability.
I have never seen instability in the CrowdStrike tool.
We are following N-1 versions across our environment, which is stable.
The biggest issue occurred when every computer worldwide experienced a blue screen.
 

Room For Improvement

CrowdStrike Falcon needs system integration, better reporting, reduced false positives, enhanced support, advanced features, and flexible pricing.
Oracle Identity Governance needs enhanced flexibility, integration, cloud support, and user experience, addressing complexity, costs, and stability concerns.
Simplifying the querying process, such as using double quote queries or directly obtaining logs based on IP addresses or usernames, would be beneficial.
Another concern is CrowdStrike's GUI. It changes annually, making it hard to work and find options.
Threat prevention should be their first priority.
Incorporating AI to reduce manual work would be beneficial.
Improvements could include making Oracle Identity Governance a simpler plug-and-play product.
The scope of the identity management or Oracle IDM is vast, and while we've implemented about 30, 40, or 50% of its capabilities, it's not done at full scale.
 

Setup Cost

CrowdStrike Falcon's pricing ranges from $30-$100 per user annually, ideal for large enterprises but costly for smaller businesses.
Oracle Identity Governance is costly for small businesses with complex licensing, lengthy implementation, and modular options based on needs.
It is expensive compared to SentinelOne, but as the market leader, it is worth it.
The licensing cost and setup costs are affordable.
The solution is a bit expensive.
They sell the solution cheaply, but setting up and maintaining it becomes very expensive.
If you want to implement it at full scale, it's not an entry-level product; it's an enterprise-class product and it is expensive.
Oracle Identity Governance is very expensive.
 

Valuable Features

CrowdStrike Falcon provides robust threat intelligence, AI-driven detection, and seamless integration with minimal system impact and intuitive interface.
Oracle Identity Governance automates identity management, enhances security, and optimizes compliance with seamless integration and robust customization features.
I can investigate by accessing the customer's host based on the RTR environment and utilize host search to know details for the past seven days, including logins, processes, file installations, malicious processes, and network connections.
The real-time analytics aspect of CrowdStrike performs well because we get all logs in real-time, with no delay, allowing us to take action immediately.
Being an EDR solution, it helps us identify attacks in real-time.
The features I find most effective in Oracle Identity Governance include size and scale management, which is good for large organizations.
The solution's capabilities in provisioning, de-provisioning, terminations, and transfers are excellent.
The best features in Oracle Identity Governance product include comprehensive reporting, as we can track exactly what person did what because of the auditing policies that can be enforced in it, and at what time what was done.

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.
Amimesh Anand - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers reliability through features associated with RBAC
Upgrading and making changes to the product is very difficult. It is difficult when you are upgrading the product because sometimes you cannot directly upgrade from one version to another version. You have to go to the lower version and then upgrade to the higher version, which is the biggest drawback of Oracle products. There are no additional features in the tool currently, and it has been the same for the last ten years. I want to see AI features in the tool so it becomes easy for implementers. There should be a change in the installation and deployment part, which is very heavy, due to which the team requires a lot of time, like two to three weeks. It should be easy to implement the tool in two or three days.
