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.

Efficient log management enhances activity monitoring despite VPN user issue

Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity. It's like a Fortinet device configured for VPN users. When a VPN user logs in, it doesn't really capture the time before this. If you're testing with existing or new device integration, then the product will be good in the market.

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."

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

"Integration with Huawei should be more straightforward."

"For reporting or log management, having a longer duration for backup without needing to purchase a paid subscription would be beneficial. Currently, there is a default ninety-day backup period."

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

"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."

More CrowdStrike Observability cons

"The customization of reports could be a lot easier. It is not difficult but it could be made easier."

"There's a lot to improve in terms of connectivity. Currently, we're utilizing it across various infrastructures and environments, including others' cloud. However, connecting it to our infrastructure and integrating it with some of our SMAX solutions poses difficulties."

"The product does not have certain advantages, especially the correlation tools. It was not working as per our expectations."

"I would like to see more detailed reports."

"The solution is stable. However, there are limits. For example, we can do 2,500 Syslog events per second, but if we want to do more we have to install the distributor structure, and then we can expand how many events we can do. They could improve the stability."

"The scalability is limited."
