CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR Reviews

The primary purpose of this solution is to safeguard against malicious software, ransomware, and other unknown security threats.

The solution is excellent; it meets customers' expectations for threat protection and provides an array of credit protection capabilities, features, and functions. As a system integrator, I am helping organizations find the best solutions to protect their environment.

The most valuable feature is AML-based threat detection.

The solution is geared more towards larger organizations, so it can be difficult for organizations with smaller budgets to utilize the solution. The cost has room for improvement.

I have been using the solution for the last four years.

The solution is stable, and while there may be opportunities for further improvements, the solution is well-designed and works well at this time.

The solution is cloud-based, so it offers scalable capabilities without any additional requirements.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete's technical support is very good; they respond accurately, on time, and in accordance with their Service Level Agreement.

This solution is highly acclaimed for its seamless implementation and ease of use. Deployment is effortless, with simple policy creation and enabling processes. All aspects of this product work together smoothly.

Our clients must always receive technical and partner support when deploying our solution. We provide recommendations and best practices to ensure a successful integration that won't negatively affect existing systems. We can also provide guidance on how our product will interact with preexisting solutions.

CrowdStrike offers solutions with the same functionality for both large enterprises and small to medium organizations with competitive pricing. CrowdStrike is able to provide its customers with a solution that fits within their budget.

I give the solution a ten out of ten.

At my job, I am often working with CrowdStrike, as it is a well-designed solution that works effectively and has been tested by numerous customers. However, I am not limited to just this product and will provide a solution to customers no matter their preferences. I offer suggestions and recommendations to customers and work to meet their needs and terms and conditions.

I believe at times that CrowdStrike is the best option on the market when it comes to MDR. CrowdStrike is a very good solution.

The market provides a lot of capabilities when it comes to product offerings, not just endpoint security. Now, a single solution can offer different types of protection. So, there is no limit to how much a tool can be extended and expanded. It is up to the companies to decide what features and capabilities they want to offer.

My organization is a cybersecurity company using CrowdStrike Falcon for incident response and forensic analysis. Twenty-five employees are using it now

CrowdStrike has improved our operations in many ways. Three of our clients recently got hit by ransomware. Using Falcon Complete, we contained and fixed the issue and helped them get things back to normal.

I like Falcon's AI functionality and vulnerability management. That has been so helpful. Falcon Complete can manage vulnerabilities, quarantine threats, and do all kinds of forensic incident analysis. It's a lightweight solution that only uses 1% of the CPU, which is a game changer. Other EDRs have had high CPU usage.

Falcon could use more SIEM capabilities, like a central place to monitor all our clients.

We have been using CrowdStrike Falcon for nearly two years now.

I rate Falcon 10 out of 10 for stability. 

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon 10 out of 10 for scalability. 

We were using McAfee Endpoint Security, but we later partnered with CrowdStrike, so we started using Falcon. The McAfee solution was limited. CrowdStrike EDR has a good dashboard that lets us see what's happening and the processes on my machines. It has better quarantining and remediation.

Setting up Falcon was straightforward. We deploy it on the cloud and on-prem, depending on the client. You can deploy it in under five minutes with an adequate internet connection.

The number of people needed to deploy the solution varies. It only requires one person if we are using Active Directory. However, we typically do it manually with four people to do it, so it's faster for us to reach the organization's endpoints.

We evaluated Trend Micro and a few other EDRs. We found from the ratings that CrowdStrike was more effective than other EDRs. In addition, we have some solutions from other vendors like AlienVault OSSIM and Darktrace because those are the main players in our market.

We primarily use the solution for antivirus purposes. 

The solution works well and is okay with me. For the most part, I am happy with it. 

The performance is good, and it is stable. We don't have any issues. I find it doesn't impact my work.

It has good security features. 

The solution offers an easy initial setup.

It's scalable. 

We'd like the pricing to be a bit lower in the future. 

I've been using the solution for about six months. 

The solution is stable and reliable. The performance is good. We haven't had any issues. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

As a solution that is based in the cloud, it can scale well. It's not a problem at all. 

We have about 1,000 users on the solution right now. 

I'm unsure as to if we have plans to increase usage. 

I've never used technical support and cannot speak to how helpful or responsive they would be. 

We might have previously used Kaspersky.

The initial setup is simple and straightforward. It's not overly complex. I'm not sure how long the deployment took. I wasn't as hands-on with the process. 

You do need to purchase a license in order to use the product. It's not cheap, however, it is not overly expensive. 

I'm an end-user.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. 

Typically, we use the solution for detection, as we outsourced the response element to an MSSP. It also gives us visibility into security threats and allows us to find and eliminate them. For issues that outweigh our capacity, we escalate to our third-party MSSP.

The detection and investigation capabilities are my favorite parts of the solution. It has good threat intelligence and threat-hunting features.  

I want better integration with other security solutions; integrating with third-party apps wasn't as seamless as I expected.

I've been using the solution for one to two years. 

The solution is stable. 

I can't say because our usage remained flat; we didn't up or downscale.

On a scale of one to ten, I put the difficulty of the initial setup at five, right in the middle.

CrowdStrike offers training at an additional cost, so many organizations wouldn't want that route.

I rate the solution eight out of ten.

My advice is to be clear in the negotiation phase about your expectations, the strengths and weaknesses of the solution, and how much of the implementation CrowdStrike will be doing for you. It's good to keep in mind what the required integrations are based on existing infrastructure to understand what is and isn't feasible in the integration.

The main valuable features are feasibility, ease of deployment, and that it's all based in the cloud. I like that it is gradually updated and that the detection rate is higher than that of other endpoint solutions. There are fewer loopholes.

When you enable a particular feature, it takes a long time, from 15 to 30 minutes, to implement in enterprise environments. This can be improved.

It would be nice if additional features were included in the product at no extra cost.

I've been working with this solution for about six months.

I haven't had any issues with stability.

It's scalable. You can use APIs to connect with all of the solutions. For example, you can use APIs to connect to a SIEM environment.

CrowdStrike's technical support is very good, and I would give them a ten out of ten.

Positive

The initial deployment is simple because you get continuous support from the CrowdStrike team, and they are very responsive.

The licensing cost for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is fair, and I would give it a five out of five. You have to pay per device/user.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a good solution, and we have not had any complaints so far. On a scale from one to ten, I would rate it at eight.

It is their MDR. We use CrowdStrike Falcon Complete to manage our security. It is for our endpoint protection.

Our organization sells CrowdStrike. 

Assume there is malware on my computer. Using the hash value, I can determine how many endpoints in my organization have been infected by this malware. 

Using this RTR, I can gain remote access to their machines or endpoints and attempt to close, remove, or delete the process or file entirely.

These features, in my opinion, are extremely important for IT administrators. It lets us now look at users in Mumbai, and I am in Bangalore.

I am not required to use AnyDesk or anything. I can simply log into my Falcon, navigate to that file section, and remove the file without the user even realizing it.

I believe their EDR, services are of high quality. Which is what organizations desire. We can use the EDR to determine how many people attempted to access someone else's laptop. 

It provides us with that insight, we know when someone is attempting to steal data from another laptop. This is also beneficial.

The most valuable feature of this solution is the real-time visibility into what is happening in your endpoint.

Their real-time response is also very good.

Their endpoint solution is excellent. But I would like to see them improve their HDR, as well as their DLP (Data Loss Prevention).

If they improve in these two areas, they will have a really good product that we will enjoy. Otherwise, we will have to include another product for people who want data loss prevention. There will be a cost, which will be expensive, and it will consume significantly more resources on the client's machine.

It would make it easier if everything was together in one center. That is why I looked into Trellix as well as Trend Micro.

In the next release, I would like to see Data Loss Prevention and  Email Security. safety included. 

The majority of these businesses are also beginning to use Chrome OS. I would also like to see support for Chrome OS.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for four or five months.

Because it comes from the cloud, it automatically updates itself.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very stable.

If you look at Trellix, for example, they just arrived and have three, or four centers. But this has only one center, and at its peak, it uses only about six MB of RAM resources.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is scalable. If you purchase the pro version, if the customer is dissatisfied with it, he can later upgrade it by adding more modules to it.

We have approximately 50 users in various roles, including sales, directors, and even our technical team, who use this solution.

I'm not aware of any Falcon Complete technical support. But I am aware of the technical support for the other module. It's quite good.

It is online-based support. We do not have that technical support number.

However, technical online support is also fairly responsive. If you file a case, they will respond within two hours.

A technician is assigned, and he or she will be on call until the case is resolved.

I would rate the technical support a four out of five. If they had a toll-free number, I would rate them a five out of five.

Positive

Previously, I did not use another solution, I have always used  CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete, from what I understand, can only be deployed in the cloud and is not available on-premise.

The initial setup is straightforward. You will receive a link, open it, configure the dashboard, and deploy the sensors. That's all.

It took a half hour to deploy the center, the policy configuration, the dashboard, and everything. 

The deployment was done in-house.

If there are only 50 users, two people will suffice. One person is more than enough if he has a deployment tool like Jamf or JumpCloud. He can simply deploy it from where he is.

I am not sure what the licensing fees are. I believe it is paid once a year, but I am not sure. However, it is dependent on the number of users present and the number of licenses purchased. The licenses are sold per user.

I believe that all of these, for example, Trend Micro, Trellix, or any other company that is based on this NGAV technology, are usually based on how many users are in that environment, and how many devices they intend to install the technology on.

I would recommend this solution to others who are interested in using it. If you want a good endpoint security solution, I recommend CrowdStrike. It provides adequate endpoint security.

I would rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete an eight out of ten.

It lacks disk encryption, data loss prevention, and email security. It does not support Chrome OS. We provide these services, which is why we are looking into Trend Micro and Trellix, both have these options available.

We are using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for fileless attacks, ransomware, and zero-day attacks.

The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the lightweight design, easily manageable portal, and minimal IT maintenance required.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete could improve by having advanced features, such as SOC, and HDR. There would have been a lot of processes involved.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for approximately three years.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a stable solution.

The scalability of rowdStrike Falcon Complete is good.

We have approximately 500 computers using the solution. We have approximately 1,200 people using the solution.

I have not contacted the technical support from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

The initial setup of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is easy. The time it took for the deployment was approximate one week for 500 computers.

We did the deployment of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete in-house.

There is a license needed to use the solution. The price of the solution is fair.

We evaluated McAfee and Symantec before choosing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

Symantec is complicated and it did not have as many features when compared to CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. McAfee is also a very complicated solution.

If you use this solution your environment will be safe.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete an eight out of ten.

We use this solution for endpoint protection of a user, a computer, a server, or a virtualization.

The threat response from this solution is very comprehensive. It not only allows us to detect the threat, but also to isolate it and check the recovery capability of the compromised system.

This solution is lacking in a recovery feature. If there is a full compromise, this product can't recover the machine, which results in us having to rebuild the entire system.

We would also like some data analysis features to be developed for this product.

We have found this solution to be stable.

This product is easily scalable, if it is deployed with consideration being given to increasing the scale.

The technical support for this solution is not very good, and issues will not be picked up unless the ticket raised is extremely precise about what the problem is. Fortunately there is extensive documentation provided to allow for self-help to take place.

There is also a very good user-community group that has been set up, which allows us to contact users in other organizations and knowledge-share with them.

The initial setup of this solution was very easy. However, the deployment could be quite complicated if there is no basic understanding of computer science.

The licensing cost for this solution is $5000, per license, with each machine requiring its own license.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete are the modern and intuitive capabilities, and because it is cloud-based it is much easier to adopt and roll out to the environment.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for approximately one year.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a stable solution.

The scalability of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is good.

We have approximately 1,000 users using this solution in my company. We have plans to increase our usage.

The support is good from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. We call them and we have a response immediately. They could improve by increasing their knowledge.

I rate the support from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete a four out of five.

Previously used Symantec Endpoint Protection. We switched to CrowdStrike Falcon Complete because we had a lot of real threats that passed through the antivirus and at the same time, we were not getting the right technical support from Symantec.

The setup of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete was easy. We have not yet completed the full implementation, it is still ongoing and we hope to finish it in two to three months. 

We had some initial proof of concept and did it on test PCs and test servers. We are moving it into production. We are doing small steps every week.

We had support from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete available during the implementation.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete an eight out of ten.

The most valuable feature of Falcon Complete is that it is a full security operations center (SOC) as well as a SIEM solution, and it is fully managed. Their security teams are working 24/7 and analyzing everything happening on all endpoints. They also take care of the instant response, which includes disconnecting endpoints, taking over the endpoints and fixing them, and ransomware protection. All of these things are most valuable because it is very difficult to get all the resources in-house to do all of that yourself. So, if you can leverage the experience of a global corporation with the best reputation in the market, and it is fully managed, that's the best. 

They're incredibly transparent. They give full access to all the information and dashboards that they work off themselves. So, you can look in and investigate any incident you wish. It is incredibly powerful from a compliance point of view because you have evidence that all of this is happening, and you're doing it correctly, and you take it seriously. 

It is already wonderful. The dashboards they have are great, but they can always improve it in terms of general interfaces and searching and presenting the information. Occasionally, navigating it to try to find what you want can be challenging because there is so much information there. It is so rich, and it has everything you could ever want. The challenge with anything like that, and any website, is how to build the user journey so that it is user-friendly, but at the same time, it is incredibly dense with information. It is difficult to achieve that balance between these things. They've done a wonderful job, but everything can be improved. So, it could be even better. If I was to focus on one thing, that's what I'd tell them to focus on. The same is with Azure. There is just so much functionality there. How can you make it easy when it is just so vast? It is a tough one.

It would be good if they fleshed it out a bit more, possibly with additional areas such as security awareness training. They could build that in. They're leveraging the same endpoint base that they have the security software on, but then they could offer a centralized portal or hub whereby someone like me could leverage it to track and put out security awareness training for people on all the common topics. I could have a centralized hub for everyone's results from that training and for the evidence that training occurred. It would be relatively straightforward, but it would add a lot for people in the compliance area. It would be a great expansion. It won't improve the actual technical protection, but it would improve the user protection. Educating the users to be more aware increases security. So, if they branched out into that, it would be a great bonus. If I was speaking to them, that's what I'd tell them to do.

I have been using this solution for a couple of years.

It is super stable. I would rate it a ten out of ten in terms of stability.

It is scalable. It is for endpoint protection. It is a cloud-based platform. So, it can scale to whatever amount of endpoints you want. You can scale it any way you want.

The endpoint deployment is relatively straightforward. The only constraint is licensing. The more you scale, the more you pay. That's it.

We have less than 200 users of this solution.

It is a fully managed service, So, we have 24/7 support. It is not technical support. It is a dedicated team, and they're there to answer any queries or questions. So, no technical support was required because nothing went wrong, but when we have questions, they're incredibly responsive. They get back super quick. I have no complaints at all. I would rate them a five out of five.

Positive

We had another solution previously, and we just replaced it with CrowdStrike. Based on all available information, we just decided it was the best, and we don't regret that. It has been very good.

Its initial setup is simple. It is very well designed.

All our endpoints are managed by mobile device management. We have centralized device management, deployment, and installation with Intune. We can install anything we want on any of the computers with Intune.

It is not cheap, and it is not overpriced. It positions itself in the upper half of pricing in the market. You can find a product that claims to do the same and is super cheap, but it'll be not at all good. You can find something that says it does everything in the world, and it is the best thing since sliced bread, but it would be incredibly expensive. Falcon Complete is neither of those. It is always best to go somewhere in the middle, but it is not in the middle. It is in the upper half. So, it is by no means cheap, but it is worth it. Its pricing is well fixed. Given what you get in return, you wouldn't feel bad paying for it.

They have a great licensing model. You can add extra bells and whistles if you want. There is that ability to reduce the price by turning off certain features if you wish. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it, but they do cater to everyone in that sense. 

We compared it to all other vendors, and then we decided on it because it is the best in class and in the Gartner Magic Quadrant. It is the best in the market. 

I would highly recommend it. So far, my experience has been nothing but positive. 

I would rate it a 10 out of 10. It is in the top five. It ticks all the boxes that I have for it. You got to manage your expectations, and given my expectations, it exceeds my expectations. Now, if you were to ask me what is my expectation for the software next year, I'd want it to be better, but at this exact moment in time, it is doing a fantastic job, and I hope they keep it up and improve. If they don't, then my grade will drop.
