Featured Reviews

IT Manager at Jord International Pty Ltd
Efficient threat detection and seamless deployment improve overall security
The single panel console of CrowdStrike Falcon is very user-friendly, which is what we are looking for. Having multiple administrators between various offices with this single console gives us the ability to see all offices, branch offices, and partners, making it very useful to detect machines, identify machines, and check security risks. Everything in the single console is very useful. CrowdStrike Falcon has positively impacted our organization in terms of efficiency because it's very lightweight, easy to deploy, easy to manage, and works very efficiently. It quickly detects issues and doesn't have a signature-based system, so it works fast and takes immediate action.

High fidelity cyber incident detection is near in real-time, enabling proactive & timely mitigation efforts
The nature of the system means it has to be implemented throughout the organizations. You need to implement it on the network layer, the email layer, the web proxy layer, and also the endpoints. Nevertheless, endpoint monitoring is very challenging due to the lack of automated method to install the endpoint agents. In one of our customer case, we have about 40,000 endpoints and we need to have a simplified method of deployment if we're going to implement the endpoint monitoring effectively. Product features also need some improvement in creating custom signatures for detection because that is not open to customers.

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 aspects of CrowdStrike Falcon for me are its device observability, identification, and software and OS recognition."
"My advice to others is this is a good solution that does not require a lot of attention."
"The solution is very scalable; our proof of concept was a few devices and now at full scale we have 50,000 devices, and because it's a cloud console, if you do the implementation right and the sensor is put on in an automated process, it doesn't matter how many computers you have, it just runs."
"The endpoint and server management are the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"The feature that I find to be the most valuable, is being able to look at the system analysis and being able to baseline what is installed on the system."
"The solution offers great stability."
"The CS falcon agent is a lightweight agent compared with other agents of EDR products."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."
"The product has significantly reduced the mean time to detect (MTTD) and allows us to see cyber attacks in near real time so that response time is much quicker and prioritized, closing the gap and saving the bank a lot of money because cyber incidents can be proactively prevented and mitigation can be carried out much earlier."
"Great automatic correlation of all internal activities."
 

Cons

"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve by adding manual scanning or serverless scanning. It is not available at this time."
"The UI is not efficient."
"The management of log aggregation is in need of improvement."
"We would like to be able to perform on-demand scanning, rather than relying on the scheduler."
"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."
"It would be nice if they did have some sort of Active Directory tie-in, whether that be Azure or on-prem. Sometimes, it is difficult for us to determine if we are missing any endpoints or servers in CrowdStrike. We honestly don't have a great inventory, but it would be nice if CrowdStrike had a way to say this is everything in your environment, Active Directory-wise, and this is what doesn't have sensors. They try to do that now with a function that they have built-in, but I have been unsuccessful in having it help us identify what needs a sensor. So, better visibility of what doesn't have a sensor in our environment would be helpful."
"As the company has grown, the technical support has felt less personal."
"The price is too high. When we are reaching a new renewal, management always asks what's going on in the market."
"Monitoring the endpoint could be improved, it requires a huge effort."
"Because the system requires an appliance, reliability and stability can become an issue because we are looking at network point of failure and at the OS point of failure as well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of CrowdStrike Falcon in Latin America seems high relative to the economic conditions in the region."
"Our company pays approximately US$ 65,000 annually for 900 machines."
"The tool is a little bit expensive compared to other products, but I think it's okay owing to its quality."
"It is an expensive product, but I think it is well worth the investment."
"This solution offers annual subscriptions. The pricing for this solution could be reduced."
"CrowdStrike is well priced. On a yearly basis, it costs between $60 and $100 per user."
"I would like them to further reduce the price, because it is quite pricey at the moment."
"Annual licensing."
