Has provided reliable alerts and helped identify infrastructure issues through detailed reporting

The best features of CrowdStrike Observability include the way they show issues to the client or agent, and their data collection method is interesting because they use an agent-less approach in some cases, collecting data from infrastructure such as firewalls. Additionally, they have the agent, but the presentation in the management console is excellent as we have observability end-to-end with the servers and all the services configured in the use cases. The intelligent alerting feature is excellent and configured on our console, being highly effective as it detects real alerts and just warnings or real issues. Identifying performance bottlenecks is important because they collect numerous MD5 or hash keys including movements or playbooks. The way they organize that in the console is excellent, allowing you to have reports detecting issues, which not only includes detection but also provides solutions to those issues.

Advanced threat hunting has improved visibility and has simplified custom query automation

CrowdStrike is ahead of the game. If I may say anything about Falcon LogScale to improve the services, I would talk about the way you develop parsers. The documentation should be more straightforward. It is not easy to quickly find the documentation, especially if you are using CrowdStrike. Most customers use Falcon LogScale because of CrowdStrike. The documentation of Falcon LogScale is not on the CrowdStrike portal just like the rest of Falcon documentation. I usually find that the main Falcon LogScale documentation is found on the Falcon LogScale website itself. I think there should be a link or direct documentation within the CrowdStrike pages. It is not necessarily a fault. If you find where the documentation resides, you can trace it to what they are doing. However, for the ease of use for Falcon administrators, the same documentation on the Falcon LogScale portal should be on the CrowdStrike dashboard.

Cons

"Integration with Huawei should be more straightforward."

"We had some difficulties at the beginning, but at this moment they are improving, so probably in some months I will give them a ten."

"Integration with Huawei should be more straightforward."

"We had some difficulties at the beginning, but at this moment they are improving, so probably in some months I will give them a ten."

"The customer service is not satisfactory for me. The support is only available in English, and my users in LATAM regions such as Peru and Colombia require local language support, which is not currently provided."

"Technical support received a rating of 4 out of 10."

"The pricing is very high and small companies cannot afford it. They should reduce the price because the backend infrastructure is the same."

"For reporting or log management, having a longer duration for backup without needing to purchase a paid subscription would be beneficial."

More CrowdStrike Observability cons

"That is a difficult question regarding Falcon LogScale. That is really a question for the professionals, and I am not a professional, so I do not know."

"The integration could improve."

"KQL is a bit challenging for us."

"There are some overlapping features found in multiple tools."

"The price could be lower."

"One area of Falcon LogScale that I think could be improved is that it is a bit complex."

"CrowdStrike support is not good."

"One more point about areas for improvement is the visualization depth. Splunk, which I used, has very good visualization compared to Falcon LogScale."
