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.
Yusuf_Hashmi - PeerSpot reviewer
Good discovery and vulnerability features and is easy to use
I think it's a good product for risk-based or exposure-based vulnerability management. It gives me the ability to identify potential weaknesses in my environment quickly. Once those vulnerabilities get identified on the console, it is only a matter of performing those actions. I would rate it nine out of ten.

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 feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."
"The solution is silent and sits on your system as one single agent."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers a comprehensive dashboard that is highly effective in protecting against and blocking external infiltration attempts."
"As an EDR tool, we can integrate log management and event management. The solution deals with threats automatically, that's the advantage."
"The feature I like the most is the solution's detection."
"Everything is automatic. I install the sensor and renew the service. Periodically, I get a notice that they've shut something down."
"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."
"I like the overall reports of this solution. They are crisp, and to the point."
"The product gives us a lot of insight."
"The feature of vulnerability management and discovery is what I use."
"For me, the setup has been an easy process."
"I think it's a good product for risk-based or exposure-based vulnerability management."
"The solution is very easy to set up."
 

Cons

"The content-filtering features for children could be improved. We have young grandchildren aged 12 and 8. My daughter, their mother, wants to keep them from getting in trouble on the net. She looked at all these other solutions from Google, Microsoft, etc., and she couldn't figure out how to make any of those work. I told her that I bet CrowdStrike could handle this. Sure enough, CrowdStrike can do exactly that. It's the same solution that the Defense Department gets. It works, but it's a little complicated to implement. It could be simpler to set the policies."
"To simplify the budgeting process for our clients, CrowdStrike should consider offering bundled packages that include essential features."
"It is cloud-based, and this does make some weary of the data being held on the cloud. Privacy requirements must be taken into account."
"CrowdStrike should provide better visibility in its reporting. There should be more forensic details about detected threats."
"We sometimes get false positives."
"The ability to receive text alerts natively in the console would be kind of cool."
"Threat prevention should be their first priority, and false positive reductions are needed."
"CrowdStrike needs to quit making up stuff about its features and functionality to bash its competition."
"The sensor update is a challenge that Tenable needs to address."
"The product has limited reporting capabilities and it isn't great at allowing for customization in reports."
"The sensor update is a challenge that Tenable needs to address. Sometimes they behave abruptly, requiring me to rework reinstalling the sensors on the endpoints."
"Tenable needs to provide a better way to manage private clouds."
"It would be nice if the product provided an agent for enforcing policies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is definitely high but you get what you pay for, and it's not so high that it prices itself out of the market."
"The price is high in comparison to similar brands."
"The solution's pricing is great for us."
"CrowdStrike is well priced. On a yearly basis, it costs between $60 and $100 per user."
"When it comes to licensing, customers can choose a bundle or select licences based on the specific features they would like access to. This solution comes with premium pricing. It is approximately 20 to 30% more expensive than competing solutions."
"The other administrator and I can log in to check the exact details of what happened, what was running, and what caused the detection. We know exactly what was happening on the end users PC and we can tell if it's something that we actually need or something that's malicious."
"The pricing is not bad. It's on the higher end of the market, but you get what you pay for."
"Crowdstrike Falcon is relatively cheap."
"The pricing is fair."
