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.

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.

I use Falcon Complete for scanning devices.

Falcon Complete's best feature is detection. The interface is also user-friendly.

There have been some issues with Falcon Complete's performance. They could also improve their reporting. In the next release, I'd like Falcon Complete to include a logging component for user authentication.

I've been working with Falcon Complete for around four months.

Falcon Complete is stable and easy to maintain.

CrowdStrike's technical support is good, though sometimes their responses are delayed.

Positive

I previously used Symantec but switched as Falcon Complete offers more features like detection.

The initial setup was simple, and once it was installed, we could easily handle the upgrades around the console.

Falcon Complete could be a bit cheaper.

I would rate Falcon Complete as eight out of ten.

We use CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for the management of endpoints, which are located onshore and offshore. 

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is mainly for endpoint protection, and we used it alongside Microsoft Defender, to secure our assets, which are either domains or newgroups.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete's most valuable features are efficient dashboards and their ease of management.

The improvements needed for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete are in the way the agent updates. The overall management of endpoints needs to be better.

In the next release of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete, they should include more security towards endpoints, add device management, and PAM solutions along with their endpoint solutions.

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

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is stable. If they make any changes in the backend, then they leave their clients with very little choice, they either have to force manage everything or they can be left out.

The scalability of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is good. We are in the cloud making scalability not a problem.

The support for CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is not good. They take a very long time to respond, it takes 24 to 28 hours for them to get back to us.

I have used previously Microsoft Defender for Endpoints.

Microsoft Defender for Endpoints is a very basic endpoint security solution. I cannot even compare it with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

The initial implementation of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete, including the creation of policies and aspects, is fairly easy. However, the only challenge is to roll out the endpoints individually onto all systems. If you have a large network and you don't have an SCCM or any other solution through which you can roll out, it becomes cumbersome. The solution does not come with any auto ruling platform feature.

The price of this solution is expensive compared to others solutions.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete a seven out of ten.

This is a security solution used for its antivirus, endpoint detection, and response capabilities.

There are many different modules with this solution where vulnerability and inventory management can be carried out. The solution has a good dashboard and offers a lot of insights into your systems.

I would like to have the option to deploy on-premise.

I have been using this solution for two and a half years.

This solution is very stable.

Since this is a SaaS, it is very scalable. Based on your requirements, you are able to scale on the fly whenever necessary. We currently have over five thousand users.

I had to contact support for some minor issues and they were able to help us out pretty well.

We previously had a signature-based AV prior to switching to CrowdStrike.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward but can vary based on the individual organization's requirements. You do need to push clients to the endpoints which can take time but the overall configuration does not take that much time.

We used a partner for installation.

We now have two administrators and one round-the-clock manager for maintenance of the platform.

There is an annual subscription.

CrowdStrike is one of the top two EDRs on the market. Since the solution is lightweight, it is able to offer a lot of features and provide you with strong protection against different attacks.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
