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 key aspect of CrowdStrike Falcon is its behavioral detection approach."
"Scalability is good. We have had no issues with it."
"CrowdStrike provides a lot of visibility in their tool."
"Everything we've done with CrowdStrike is due to Arctic Wolf. We don't even need to get alerts from CrowdStrike anymore. It'll send those to Arctic Wolf, and then Arctic Wolf analyzes those and let us know if there's a major issue."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon for me is its unified sensor, applicable across all models."
"I like Falcon's threat detection and endpoint investigation features. It's a user-friendly solution."
"I like the dashboard nature of it. Everything is clickable, linkable, and information is easy to obtain and find. How it presents that information is probably the biggest win as far as the information correlation aspect. The presentation of it is very good."
"The detection is very reliable. Also, OverWatch is a great feature."
"Great automatic correlation of all internal activities."
 

Cons

"Sometimes CrowdStrike changes the GUI, and they need to be better at informing us and providing guidance concerning that."
"They should provide us with good visibility for everything."
"The solution isn't known in my market. The brand isn't as recognizable. Their shortcomings are more on the marketing side."
"The dashboard does not have the facility to export the reports in a PDF format, which I can quickly share with internal stakeholders."
"We can do a threat analysis of any machine at any time, but that threat analysis is very limited."
"On the firewall management side, there should be more granularity. There should also be more granularity for device control. Everything else is brilliant."
"Tighter integration around XDR could be included."
"Some of Falcon's features are a bit pricey."
"Monitoring the endpoint could be improved, it requires a huge effort."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"With respect to pricing, my suggestion to others is to evaluate the environment and purchase what you need."
"When comparing to Microsoft, CrowdStrike Falcon is more expensive."
"CrowdStrike is well priced. On a yearly basis, it costs between $60 and $100 per user."
"CrowdStrike is a reasonably priced tool."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"Different components are additional price points. We got the components that were right for us, but other organizations may require more (or less) components to suit their needs."
"The price is high in comparison to similar brands."
"The cost of CrowdStrike Falcon could be reduced. It is quite expensive if you compare it to other solutions, such as Blue Coat, Symantec, McAfee, or Kaspersky."
