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.

AI-powered discovery enhances threat visibility while customer support excels
I am a reseller. One of our customers suffered an attack a few months ago, and they discovered that they have some data available on the deep and dark web. The biggest driver for using ThreatMon was takedown services. SIEM integration into their incident response was also essential. They wanted…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"CrowdStrike provides a lot of visibility in their tool."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."
"The product provides good monitoring features."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has done an excellent job at detecting breaches. It has allowed us to stay in business and keep our systems up."
"The most valuable aspects of CrowdStrike Falcon for me are its device observability, identification, and software and OS recognition."
"It's very easy to set up."
"I like Falcon's threat detection and endpoint investigation features. It's a user-friendly solution."
"The endpoint and server management are the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"I would recommend ThreatMon."
"Machine learning or AI discovery, which discovers our resources on the deep and dark web, has been very useful."
 

Cons

"The overall cost of CrowdStrike Falcon could be reduced."
"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."
"Enhancements in reporting and forensic analysis could benefit the product."
"There are some areas where some customers would prefer a different service."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve the logs by making them free to the API."
"I would rate it an eight out of ten. It does what it needs to do but there's always room for improvement."
"I would like them to improve the correlation of data in the search algorithms. When we run an investigation, malware, phishing, etc., I want to look at multiple endpoints at once to correlate that data to see the likenesses, e.g., how are they not alike or what systems and processes are running across those systems? I don't want to have to run the same search in their Spotlight module five, 10, 15, or 100 times to get 100 different results, copy that data out, and then correlate it on my own. In a very simple way, I want to be able to load up a comma-delimited list giving me the spotlight data on these X amount of hosts, letting me search for it quickly. We have had to go back to CrowdStrike, and say, "Our search are taking far too long for even one host." They did bump up the cores and that did improve performance, but it is still kind of slow to get that Spotlight data. That is probably our biggest pain point. I think that needs some help. I understand this kind of information access is probably not the easiest thing to do. It is probably a big ask depending on how their back-end is setup."
"We are looking at a better pricing model to onboard as many customers as possible."
"ThreatMon is very expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is not bad. It's on the higher end of the market, but you get what you pay for."

"CrowdStrike Falcon offers excellent value for the money for our organization, particularly given our lean IT team."
