CrowdStrike Falcon Complete Reviews

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is used for EDR and security.

The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is endpoint detection and response.

Ι 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.

There are approximately 200 users using this solution in my organization.

The support from CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very fast. The support could improve if it was in the French language.

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

The initial setup of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is straightforward.

I rate the initial setup of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete a four out of five.

We used a consultant to do the implementation of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

We have approximately five engineers doing the maintenance and support.

There are different lengths of licenses available, such as three and five years. The price of CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is expensive.

My advice to others is this solution is good for finding security beaches in systems.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete an eight 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.

We primarily use the solution for server endpoint protection as well as client and user client endpoint protection.

The solution allows us to have a single pane of glass for observing our antivirus and for any malicious activity. It allowed us to simplify investigations as well. It's basically helped keep our organization more secure.

The AI detection has been excellent in terms of detection and stopping malicious processes with little to no input on our end. 

Over the last year, we've had two instances where we've actually had to take a machine offline and do some forensics, however, for the most part, it's been great in terms of stopping anything suspicious from running on people's machines.

The solution is user-friendly.

The product seems to integrate well with other products.

The initial setup is pretty easy.

The solution isn't missing any features at this point. It's ticking all the boxes for our organization. There really isn't anything that I can see that would make me want to change providers.

The customization could be tweaked. We can do a bunch of custom dashboards. However, the one thing that I'm not a fan of is when you go to do an investigation, the way that the processes are laid out on the screen is very bland looking. While the information is there, it could be laid out better. I've seen other products like Cisco Secure that gives you a better view of the issues. Cisco just presents the data differently, and it's easier to look at.

I've been using the solution for about one year at this point.

We haven't suffered from bugs and have had no issues with updates. Everything is very light. It's very reliable and very stable.

We added about a thousand hosts since we rolled this out, and we have more coming online and have had no impact on our environment due to the fact that it's a cloud staff solution. The product is very scalable. There's no issue in that sense.

We have granted access to the dashboard to about five people, and it can be anyone from IT operations, server operations, and IT security.

Technical support has been great. I'd rate them ten out of ten. You can open up tickets right from the dashboard itself, and they're very quick to answer questions. We're quite satisfied with their level of service.

We used a different solution, and we switched due to the fact that CrowdStrike gave us the ability to replace our antivirus. At the time, we didn't have an EDR solution, therefore, CrowdStrike did both in terms of being able to detect an antivirus as well as proper endpoint detection and remediation.

The initial setup is not complex at all. The implementation is extremely straightforward and very easy.

Actually, one of the companies that we recently acquired was using another product and they wanted to know how easy it was to install our CrowdStrike. We had them uninstall their products on their servers and then install CrowdStrike, and it turns out uninstalling the other product took longer than the actual install of CrowdStrike.

Our company is very mindful when it comes to purchasing - whether it's software or equipment. I believe the folks that made the decision to purchase this product did so based on price and performance. I wouldn't say there is an issue with pricing. We are redoing our license with them. If that was an issue, I'm pretty sure I would have been asked to look at other products. Therefore, although I don't know the exact pricing, my assumption is that the cost is rather reasonable.

We're just customers. We don't have a business relationship with the company.

I'd advise other organizations to definitely do a proof of concept in their organization, and then go from there.

Overall, I'd give the solution a nine out of ten. It ticks all the boxes for everything that we need to do for investigations in our environment.

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 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.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is used to inform the IT or security analyst if there is something happening inside the endpoint. Additionally, the EDR can take an action by itself if there is something abnormal happening inside the endpoint.

If there is something wrong or not normal in the endpoint CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is very responsive. It will give an alert that is very useful and it takes action automatically. There at times needs to be some manual intervention but it is less often.

The solution needs to have human involvement, they could improve by having more automation where the solution can take the necessary action on time and more accurately.

I have been using this solution for approximately one year.

The solution is stable.

I have found the scalability very good.

We have approximately 1,000 users using this solution in my organization.

The technical support is excellent.

The installation is easy. We can install it through Windows Active Directory, send the files to the end-user to install it, or the IT department can install it remotely. The time it took for the full installation throughout our organization took 35 days.

We have four to five people that do the implementation and maintenance of the solution. 

The solution is priced fairly. For the features you receive, it is worth the money.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon Complete ten out of ten.

It's an EDR group solution. We use it for behavioral-based analysis.

On our endpoints, we have signature-based and behavioral-based analyses, and we use CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for behavioral-based analyses. 

I think it has very good features that help dig deeper while doing an investigation. Its IOCs alerting mechanism is good. I think it is AI based and categorizes behaviors which are unusual.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete has good instrumentation, and the user interface is good too.

Pricing is definitely a problem. It could be cheaper for licensing.

I've been using CrowdStrike Falcon Complete for 5 years.

It is stable.

It is scalable as well. It's a cloud-based solution, so I don't doubt the scalability. I think it's good.

We have 6,000 end users who are using it.

The technical support is good. You raise a complaint, and they respond immediately.

The installation was smooth and didn't take much time.

We did it by ourselves. We have two or three engineers who run it and perform the rolling, installation, and upgrades.

We have a yearly license, and it could be cheaper.

We evaluated Trend Micro and Sophos before choosing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is great, and I would rate it at eight on a scale from one to ten.

If you go with this solution, I think that you should also obtain another service called Hybrid Analysis, the premium edition. I think with this, you'll get malware samples you can correlate, and it will be a good tool for the SOC team.

We use CrowdStrike as our endpoint protection solution for all of our devices.

The previous solution that we had for our endpoints was lacking. It was a blacklist/whitelist solution and every time you tried to run something, it would get stuck in a model of having to check the file, update the system, check the server, get approval to run a piece of software, and so forth. It was just a nightmare.

Its machine learning and AI features are good.

The real-time updates that it gets with respect to threats are very good.

It would be nice to have full-scale ESR reporting.

In the future, I would like to see better reporting and better SIEM integration.

We have been using CrowdStrike Falcon for about a year.

The stability seems fine and we haven't had any problems.

This product is cloud-based, so there is plenty of room for it to grow. I think that there are about 250 endpoints including everything from customer service to warehouse functions to C-suite.

I have been in contact with technical support and they seemed competent, as well as quick to respond. I would rate them a nine out of ten. Nothing is perfect and there is always a little bit of room for improvement. Ideally, there would be fewer canned responses for the first go around.

Prior to CrowdStrike Falcon, we were using Carbon Black. It was more of a blacklist-type software and it was just cumbersome to do anything for any of my users.

The initial setup was pretty simple, once the implementor showed us a couple of the tips and tricks, and what the nomenclature is.

The price is okay, although you're not going to get away cheap when it comes to security.

My advice for anybody who is implementing CrowdStrike Falcon Complete is to get the training and make sure that they understand the system. If they are going to be doing their own admin work then they have to make sure that they understand it all.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.
