CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR Reviews

What's most valuable about CrowdStrike Falcon Complete as an endpoint security solution is that it provides different features against malware outbreaks. The solution is also cloud-based so it offers flexibility in terms of managing it. It's also easy to deploy the agent and you can deploy it through CrowdStrike, your CloudStrike console, or you can take that agent out and you can use different solutions to deploy it through your group policy, your SSCM, or any asset management tool.

What could be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the threat hunting feature and the insights it provides, in particular, the variable analysis feature. Protection against zero-day threats and sandboxing could also be improved in CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. If you compare it with other solutions, it can go head-to-head, but the features I mentioned still need improvement.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a stable solution.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is a scalable solution. From the infrastructure and operation side, it's one of the best tools in terms of scalability.

I have not worked directly with the technical support team of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. My company has a different team that worked directly with the CrowdStrike presale team, and that CrowdStrike team was really good, always supportive, and helpful.

I have no idea on the licensing cost of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

I have experience with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete, and I've worked with it recently. I work as a solution architect, so I work with different products, and I can't tell you exactly which version of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete I used.

I manage different customers, so the solution is deployed on various clouds, but mostly on a hybrid cloud, with providers being AWS and GCP.

My advice to anyone looking into implementing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is to go for it. You should move from the traditional antivirus to the next-gen antivirus. Next-gen antivirus such as CrowdStrike Falcon Complete has malware detection, exploit detection, and endpoint detection and response (EDR) features that you won't find in the traditional antivirus. Signature-based antivirus also fails to detect zero-day attacks as well as crypto locker, ransomware, etc. CrowdStrike Falcon Complete has IOA behavioral protection, and it has an analysis functionality and great reporting capabilities, so you should go for it.

My rating for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is eight out of ten. Sometimes on remote users as it is release-signed, there's some issue with the agent and some false positives as well. In terms of detection, an antivirus or EDR solution, or any kind of threat protection product, you have to check a few things. One is how good it is when malware is in the pre-execution stage and the post-execution stage. I have done some analysis on CrowdStrike Falcon Complete on seventy-five different parameters and controls, and I concluded that the product is really good. It's not a ten out of ten because I cannot provide a perfect score for any product. Eight out of ten is a good score in my point of view because you'd still feel that other things are missing in the product.

We use CrowdStrike Falcon Complete as an endpoint detection and response solution. We have over 10,000 users of this product. It requires less than 10 staff to deploy and maintain CrowdStrike. We are looking at rolling out more features of the product.

CrowdStrike has improved our meantime to closure on incidents. By enabling us to have more contextual awareness for each of the detections, it provides a much richer and broader scale of intelligence to each of the incidents and detections.

The threat intelligence of CrowdStrike Falcon is the most valuable feature. I also  enjoy their contextual awareness, endpoint detection and response.

The solution could use an on-demand scan feature.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon for 18 months.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is stable. 

The solution is scalable. We did a proof of concept with CrowdStrike versus others. CrowdStrik lived up to these capabilities.

I have used their technical support, and they are good. I would rate them a four out of five.

Positive

We were using a couple of other solutions before CrowdStrike and decided to move away from them as they weren't as good.

The initial setup of CrowdStrike is fairly straightforward. I would rate the initial setup a four out of five.

We used a professional service, an integrator, to implement the solution. Our organization is complex, so the roll-out took a couple of months.

From what I understand from our network architect, CrowdStrike Falcon is good value for the money required. We receive good service and support. The training is excellent. They offer a number of free classes to train users and analysts. It is a very capable product.

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

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is an XDR solution that we use for our endpoint protection.

We currently don't have a complete CrowdStrike Falcon bundle; instead, we have an enterprise bundle in place. For this bundle, agents are installed on all endpoints, and we define security rules to ensure automated workflows are executed through multiple cells using pre-defined playbooks.

CrowdStrike Falcon's detailed dashboard simplifies the process to respond to and remediate cyber threats.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete's AI-powered analytics have demonstrated good performance and accuracy in real-world scenarios.

CrowdStrike Falcon has helped reduce the efforts of our SOC team by remediating most of the alerts, directly allowing us to manage things more efficiently.

We realized the benefits of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete within the first year.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete highlights any endpoint vulnerabilities it detects directly on the dashboard, making it easier for our IT staff to address them and improve our overall security posture.

The overwatch module is the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR offers an optional module that might not be cost-effective for all organizations.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for almost two years.

We frequently encounter situations where endpoint agents go offline for unknown reasons, necessitating a service restart on affected machines to restore connectivity.

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

The technical support is good.

Positive

As part of the integration team, I manage the entire transaction process. While the initial deployment presented a challenge due to the need to contact all end users, it was a one-time effort necessary to implement the solution. The deployment itself took four months to complete and required eight people.

We implemented a hybrid work model, allowing employees to work both from home and in the office. As a part of this model, we empowered end users to deploy the agents themselves. We carefully monitored the entire process through a designated dashboard, assigning agents to their respective groups and ensuring timely policy implementations based on individual agent online status. This approach granted us ultimate control over the process.

We used an integrator in the middle of the deployment.

We have seen a return on investment with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is expensive.

I would rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete a nine out of ten.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is deployed across our entire organization.

We use the solution for endpoint detection and response features.

The solution's most valuable feature is AI engine. It helps us automatically block the execution of suspicious activity.

The machines require several resets during the solution's deployment process. They should improve this particular area. Also, the reporting feature could be user-friendly. The reports need to be explained in simpler words instead of technical terms.

We have been using the solution for six years.

I rate the solution's stability as a ten.

We have 1000 solution users. It is very scalable. I rate its scalability as a ten.

I rate the solution's initial setup process as nine. It takes a month to complete. We first deploy the pilot group in a passive mode and then move to active mode. Meanwhile, we also remove the old antivirus platform from the network. Once the pilot is active, we deploy it to the rest of the platform.

The solution's licenses are expensive for small-scale companies. They cost around $120. There are no additional costs. But sometimes, we need to outsource some skills to access good security understanding. Thus, we have to pay extra for it apart from the licenses. I rate its pricing as a nine.

I highly recommend the product and rate it as a nine. It is exceptional, but there are competitive products in the market with better pricing.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is used for endpoint protection, which includes anti-malware, and some MDR capabilities, such as threat hunting.

The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is the overall endpoint protection.

We are looking to move to SentinelOne because of the lack of threat visibility.

My advice to others is to take the full package of the solution to determine what are the most useful features and then adjust the package later.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete an eight out of ten.

I primarily use the solution on the could to enhance my security posture. It's used to prevent malware from getting on our systems.

I'm looking at using their Spotlight feature. The solution is very good at revealing the vulnerabilities we might have. If there's anything on our system, it will reveal it, and we can address it. 

It is stable and reliable.

Technical support is helpful.

It's pretty easy to set up.

The solution can scale. 

The CSPM UI of the solution could be improved. The cloud solution is where there needs improvement done. The on-premises version is mostly fine. 

The licensing is a bit complex. People need to take some time to understand it to ensure they are getting the most out of the offering.

I've used the solution for three or four months. 

The solution is stable and reliable. My understanding is it is quite stable. I'd rate it nine out of ten for stability. 

The solution is very scalable. I'd rate it eight of nine out of ten. It can extend well. 

We have more than 400 users. We use it on the server side, not for end-user computing. 

We have been using the solution pretty regularly for monitoring. 

Support is very good. They were very helpful during setup. They got back to us pretty quickly. We haven't had any issues with them. 

Positive

We did POCs with other solutions. However, we did not go live with anything other than Crowd Strike. We wanted a good cloud option and those Crowd Strike.

The initial setup is very easy. I'd rate it at a 7.5 out of ten. We did a POC with them before doing the full contract, and the support was very good. We had a few challenges, and support took care of it in a reasonable amount of time.

The deployment took a month or so since we had quite a number of things to handle and complete. 

Our infrastructure team manages the deployment and maintenance. We have not done a lot of maintenance as of now. We are still in learning mode. Likely down the road, we might need just one person to monitor the console and act on things as they arise. 

We handled the initial setup in-house, although we did get help from support occasionally. 

It is too early to say if there will be an ROI. When we run it for a year or so, we'll have a better idea of if we will see one. 

The pricing is pretty contextual. It's hard to give a general price. 

We did look at other options and found Crowd Strike offered a very good cloud option. 

I am a customer. 

We are using the latest version of the solution. 

I'd advise others to do a lot of research and do a POC so that they are aware of what they will be getting and what they will be signing up for. 

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Endpoint protection is the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete at this moment.
