CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR Reviews

We are using this solution for endpoint protection.

The features I have found valuable are artificial intelligence, which protects us against malicious forces of any kind, and device control through the remote execution tool.

The training provided could be better. There is a need to have more training to allow us to fine-tune our settings. Not that training is not comprehensive; they do provide training in hotels where we can go and see videos and other helpful information. However, they should be providing hands-on experience to the system administrators because this would be more useful. The training is normally for corporations and should be available for personal users as well.

In the next release, there should be an IT help desk remote controller so that we do not need to go to a separate IT help desk. If there are any issues from the end-users, they should not need to use another tool to connect to the system, desktop, or anything else. If they would be able to facilitate this it would be easier for our engineers to raise a ticket and have the SLAs to support them.

I have been using this solution for approximately two years. 

The solution has been scalable in our experience.

The installation is straightforward. My engineers were trained by the partners on how to install the solution in all the areas, for example, the sensors. We did require the initial guidance but if you have prior experience with any other solutions, I do not think people should require special training or instruction. It is a simple and lightweight tool.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete an eight out of ten.

We use the solution for security.

I have found AI technology most valuable in the solution.

I have been using the solution for the last two months.

My customers have not had any issues with the stability.

We have a customer that has 8,000 users. The solution is suitable for large size companies, it scales well.

The technical support is good. However, the technical support is outsourced to India which causes some language barriers. I am not sure if this is still an issue, they might have allotted more suitable representatives.

The installation can be complex depending on the type of environment the solution is installed in.

We do the implementation of the solution.

There is a license for this solution and everything is included. However, The price of the could be lower.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete an eight out of ten.

We implemented this solution to secure everything in our environment, such as our endpoints, servers, and network.

EDR and Next-Generation Antivirus (NGAV) are good features. The Spotlight feature is also good, and it also can detect patching-related vulnerabilities. 

We have also been using Cisco AMP for Endpoints for three years. We have received multiple detections in Cisco AMP for Endpoints, and we had to take some actions, whereas CrowdStrike has not detected anything critical since it has been implemented. Most of the incidents that it has detected are false positives. They should work on the false-positive issue. When it is implemented throughout the organization, it gets very difficult to check each false positive and investigate what is correct and what is not correct. It requires technical and manual intervention.

I have been using this solution for two months.

It is stable and reliable.

We have not scaled it, but we have implemented it across the company.

They have been very responsive. There are no concerns about their service. 

We also use Cisco AMP for Endpoints. Cisco AMP for Endpoints is signature-based, and CrowdStrike is behavior-based. We have received multiple detections in Cisco AMP for Endpoints, whereas CrowdStrike has not detected anything critical since it has been implemented. There are a lot of false positives.

Both Cisco AMP for Endpoints and CrowdStrike are agent-based, but with Cisco AMP for Endpoints, we get a much slower system because it requires a lot of processing power, whereas CrowdStrike doesn't require a lot of processing power. 

In terms of pricing, CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is 50% more expensive than Cisco AMP for Endpoints.

Its price is very high. CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is 50% more expensive than Cisco AMP for Endpoints.

I can recommend this solution. It is definitely one of the best products in the market, but so many false positives are its minus point. Cisco AMP for Endpoints is better than this.

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

I find the incident management feature valuable because it identifies new types of viruses and sends an alert to the console administrator to check the hardware. 

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete also shows the levels of the rights for both PCs and servers. It also checks the threats and all the attacks on the internet. I also like the console, the interface, the reports, and the dashboard. It's a good product.

It would be better if they offered other language options. It's only in English, and in Latin America, we mostly speak Spanish.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is scalable. It's good because you only pay for what you need. If I need 100 agents or if I want to scale to 500, I just have to pay for it because the solution is in the cloud. The companies pay for the users they need.

Technical support is good. The company also offered training for resellers.

The initial setup is easy because of the admin login on the platform. You just send the link to the end-user, click it, and set up the agent. It's that easy. It takes about five minutes to deploy this solution.

I would tell potential users to uninstall other antivirus products before installing this solution. If you don't do it, it will affect its performance. 

On a scale from one to ten, I would give CrowdStrike Falcon Complete a nine.

We are currently testing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. We have just started to work with this solution. It has many options, but I haven't yet tried them. I have also used it previously in another company.

It is a very good solution. It can provide detection and response in an extensive way, and for an endpoint, it can integrate the information that comes from the servers.

It has a lot of false positives, which can be an issue, but you can verify these false positives. 

We are currently testing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete and Carbon Black, and then we will decide. I was considering Carbon Black, but CrowdStrike has a better positioning in Mexico. This is why we are considering this solution.

In terms of XDR, it is a very good solution. It is one of the leaders for XDR.

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

It is an endpoint protection product. It has a very good reporting engine and dashboard. It has a good set of endpoint controls. 

It provides an effective set of protections. When we throw malware and stuff like that at it, it is able to stop them.

The downside that we see with CrowdStrike is that it is not part of a broader ecosystem. It is an endpoint product. They don't sell firewalls or a broader cybersecurity ecosystem.

Some of the behavioral detections could be more robust. It does a good job of stopping common tools and techniques, but when it comes to using Windows utilities, such as PowerShell, etc, it doesn't stop them. These are some of the things where we have been able to get past it. An argument there can be that these are administrative tools, not malware, so maybe it is not its job to stop it, but we see some of the competitive products doing a very good job of detecting behaviors as opposed to malware.

I have been using this solution for about a year.

It is stable.

It is scalable. We haven't run into any scalability issues

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

We use the solution for AB protection and endpoint detection and response.

The real-time response features are valuable for us.  The depth of data that the agent collects is all very helpful, and on a forensic standpoint as well.

The documentation that they had for the use of their API's was not very helpful. It took us a lot of time to work through their API on how to do it programmatically. Aside from that, we really have not had very much trouble with Crowdstrike.

For an upcoming feature, adding more Linux support for real time response analytics would be helpful. This might be on their roadmap, or maybe even in a very pending release. 

We have been using the solution for approximately four months.

Comparing the stability of the solution to other similar products it is at the top.

The scalability was good.

The technical support has been good the entire time. We had the one issue with the APIs but we already dealt with that. The technical support has been good on all of our issues.

The setup is simple and the deployment is straightforward for the agents.

I did not give the solution a ten out of ten because there is always room for improvement.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete a nine out of ten.

Overall, the solution is pretty good.

The overall ability to stop vulnerabilities is quite helpful.

I appreciate how the solution takes a proactive approach to security.

It's not a signature-based solution, which is ideal for us.

The solution could offer integration with some additional solutions - for example, vulnerability scanners.

In a future release, it would be ideal if they could add reporting and action histories to their suite of features.

I've been using the product at this point for about three years. It hasn't been too long.

I also currently use SentinelOne and FireEye. However, CrowdStrike is a solution I primarily use right now.

I work for a very large VAR, and we handle about a billion dollars in security right now.

I'm a reseller and security architect.

Overall, I would rate the solution at a ten out of ten. It's an excellent option and one we highly recommend to our clients. We offer it quite extensively over other options.
