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.

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 detection is very reliable. Also, OverWatch is a great feature."
"I value the overall behavior analysis of CrowdStrike. The engine of this product is what drew us to this solution."
"The stability is good; we haven't experienced any glitches or bugs."
"The Protect functionality on the laptops provides great visibility into what's occurring, and the cloud management of the platform is what we needed."
"The detection is very effective."
"We are happy with CloudStrike's ease of use and touch notification."
"I like the Overwatch feature the most."
"There are two things which customers really like about CrowdStrike. If they buy managed services from CrowdStrike, it offers them detection of security issues in one minute. If you buy their professional services, they offer insurance where you can claim up to $5 million if there's a breach. This is a huge upsell for customers."
"Great automatic correlation of all internal activities."
 

Cons

"Falcon could include more integrative features."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's GUI requires improvement for user-friendliness."
"The management reporting functionality needs to be improved."
"The console is a little cluttered and at times, finding what you're looking for is not intuitive."
"The technical support could improve because I am in India and the support I receive is from the UK or Australia. It is difficult to manage the time difference. The service could be faster. However, when we do have the support they are knowledgeable."
"CrowdStrike Falcon sometimes wrongly flags things as malicious. Let's say a user is active on Chrome only. Sometimes, our cross-segmenting will fetch from the backend data and show that it is malicious because of memory or CPU utilization."
"I would like CrowdStrike to provide some correlation in the threat analysis, so we can visualize things better."
"Monitoring the endpoint could be improved, it requires a huge effort."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As I'm part of the technical team, not the budgeting team, I don't have information on CrowdStrike Falcon pricing."
"There are three to four licensing models available to choose from for CrowdStrike Falcon. The price of CrowdStrike Falcon depends on the distributor and the reseller partner. The price we received was good."
"In my opinion, the pricing of CrowdStrike Falcon seems aggressive."
"Purchasing the product through the AWS Marketplace is just a click away. Since we were using the on-premise version of the product, we continued on the cloud by purchasing it through the AWS Marketplace."
"The more endpoints an organization adds the cheaper the cost."
"The price is fixed with no room for negotiation."
"The price of CrowdStrike Falcon could be better. It is very expensive, we pay approximately $900 per month for the licenses. There are not any additional fees."
"Our licensing fees were between $50,000 and $60,000 per year, which was pretty expensive for a small business."
