Cloud-native security has improved real-time threat detection and streamlined daily operations
While CrowdStrike Falcon is strong overall, there are a few areas where it could be improved. First, the user interface can be a bit complex for new users. Sometimes, navigating through different sections and understanding detailed alerts takes time, especially for teams without deep security expertise. The cost is also something to consider, as the features and additional modules can increase pricing, which may be a challenge for smaller teams. Additionally, some integrations with simpler reporting would be helpful. The onboarding process for new users is a bit challenging for beginners to understand all features and workflows in the product. More simplified documentation, step-by-step guides, and real-world examples could help new users get comfortable faster. A structured onboarding or basic training module would be very useful for teams who are new to endpoint security tools. In addition, having more in-product guidance and tooltips within the dashboard could make navigation easier and reduce the learning curve. Overall, improving training resources and onboarding support would make the platform more user-friendly, especially for new users.

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 features in CrowdStrike Falcon are the full EDR with antivirus, hunting, reporting, and RTR remote control."
"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."
"The managed services are distinguished, responsive, dynamic, flexible, and assertive when taking action."
"Easy to use, intelligent, and stable threat detection software."
"The most useful feature is that we do not need to install or keep signature files. Regular scanning that consumes a lot of computer resources is not needed."
"Before CrowdStrike Falcon, there were 40 to 50 alerts per day with many antivirus detections and time wasted validating non-issues, but after installing the CrowdStrike Falcon agent on the endpoint, there are now 10 to 15 meaningful alerts that we can work on and isolate the system, with a 60 to 70 percent reduction in false positives and investigation time reduced from three to four hours to one to two hours, and per user from 10 to 15 minutes to around five minutes."
"The threat intelligence on offer is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"I like the feature called RTC, the remote time connector."
"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
"The security level that they are maintaining with the pre-authentication keys is very good."
 

Cons

"The skillsets needed to run CrowdStrike Falcon are extensive if you want to get the most value out of the tool."
"I've found that CrowdStrike's technical support could benefit from increased technical expertise."
"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."
"The new interface, the UI, seems a bit messy."
"I would also like to see the endpoint firewall component produce some level of logging and feedback."
"Basically, they don't cover legacy OS or applications. That's the only issue we're concerned about."
"Dashboard creation is one of the areas for improvement in CrowdStrike Falcon. Sometimes, management asks for a custom dashboard, so my team has to collect data from CrowdStrike Falcon, integrate that in Splunk, then create the dashboard in Splunk. The Splunk dashboard is more elaborate, so the CrowdStrike Falcon dashboard needs improvement. Another area for improvement in the tool is the malware detection report, as it needs to be more detailed and include some graphics so that if you want to present that data in a nutshell, it's easier to do. For example, the report should consist of some graphical representation that shows a month's worth of data. In terms of an additional feature I'd like CrowdStrike Falcon to have, it's the device posture assessment feature that detects the device posture within the network. Whichever device connects to the corporate network, my company should be able to analyze the device posture. Then there should be communication with the network, which means that as soon as a device connects, CrowdStrike Falcon can assess the device posture, detect its corporate asset, and decide whether it should be allowed on the network."
"There are some aspects of the UI that could use some improvement, e.g., working in groups."
"The solution could improve by providing better documentation for beginners to learn, such as videos or other tutorials."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CrowdStrike is well priced. On a yearly basis, it costs between $60 and $100 per user."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's price is good."
"The pricing and licensing are fairly good. It is definitely not a cheap product, but I have felt that it is worth the money that we spent. So, we have discussed it in the past, and were like, "Yes, it is probably pricier than some other solutions, but we also feel they really are the leader. We are very comfortable with their level of expertise. So, it's kind of worth the price that we pay.""
"We bought a very small number of licenses, then ran it for a year. We bought a 100 licenses for a year, so we didn't actually do a proof of concept. We just bought them. Then, the next year, we bought 10,000 licenses."
"While CrowdStrike Falcon offers significant security benefits, its high price point might make it prohibitively expensive for many small and medium-sized businesses, including companies like ours."
"We are on an annual subscription for the solution. There are not any additional costs."
"We pay 40,000 dirhams per 100 users."
"As I'm part of the technical team, not the budgeting team, I don't have information on CrowdStrike Falcon pricing."
"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
