CrowdStrike Falcon Reviews

We use CrowdStrike Falcon XDR for endpoint protection.

It is more sophisticated than a legacy antivirus. 

When compared to the legacy antivirus, it offers more features, including the ability to do analyses, halt execution, and more. It also gives you real-time notifications.

In comparison to the earlier legacy era, it is better.

The ability to execute real-time response, or, that you can connect to the agent and see exactly what processes are operating, is the most important feature of this solution.

It gives you that capability.

I am satisfied with the features that I currently use.

The interface is good, I have no complaints.

I believe that most of the features are perfect for my needs, anything else is only icing on the cake.

It can be expensive depending on the features you select.

The technical support could be improved.

I have been working with CrowdStrike Falcon XDR for more than one year.

CrowdStrike Falcon XDR is a very stable solution.

CrowdStrike Falcon XDR is simply scalable.

In my opinion, it all comes down to what is your pocket saying., and the number, of users. 

From my perspective, it's a very scalable product.

All of your endpoints are using this solution.

In our company, we have approximately 372 users.

We have contacted technical support multiple times.

I would rate the technical support a three and a half out of five. They are good but could improve.

The initial setup was very easy. 

It took less than three days.

We completed the setup with some assistance from the Falcon team.

I am not aware of the price, but I believe that it is among the most expensive XDRs out there. 

Of course, this is dependent on the features you choose. Depending on the features, the price might increase.

This is our sixth year of transitioning from a legacy antivirus. So, I believe we saw the issues that we have with legacy antivirus. That's why we went for Falcon XDR.

First, they should understand their needs, then depending on those requirements, I would be able to advise because each person has a unique use case.

I would strongly suggest this solution to anyone who is considering using it. It's a go-to for endpoint protection.

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

I mainly use Falcon for endpoint protection.

Falcon has decreased the load on our analyst team because they don't have to manually contact the system owners to stop that particular event from happening as Falcon detects threats and quarantines the machines itself.

Falcon's best feature is its detection and blocking of threats.

Falcon could be improved with more function on the mobile end of things and better optimization with mobile devices. In the next release, CrowdStrike should include the ability to send logs to SIM tools.

I've been using CrowdStrike Falcon for three years.

Falcon hasn't missed any attacks - it's very stable and reliable.

I'm very happy with CrowdStrike's technical support.

Positive

The initial setup was straightforward because the vendor helped us throughout, and there was training while it was being deployed. The deployment took between one and two weeks to complete.

We used an in-house team.

I would recommend anybody looking at Falcon to go for it because it's an easy-to-understand solution that's really worth having. I would give Falcon a rating of nine out of ten.

Our primary use for CrowdStrike is as an EDR system. We are protecting more then 9.000 devices.

I like the detection rates of mobile threats.

The policies allow us to define the level of protection.

The dashboards are good, as well as user management.

The management reporting functionality needs to be improved.

We would like to see more features for vulnerability management included.

We have been using CrowdStrike Falcon since one year.

This is a stable product.

We haven't had any problems with scalability and it expands with the company's needs.

We have 20,000 users and about 20 of them are administrators.

We have been in touch with technical support for a few issues. They are quite good and the response is fast.

We were using Cylance prior to CrowdStrike, and these two products overlapped for a time. We also use an on-premises solution called F-Secure.

CrowdStrike has a much lower rate of false positives than Cylance and the dashboard makes it easier to use.

The initial setup is very simple. It took two months to deploy for 20,000 clients.

Our in-house team handled the implementation and deployment. No maintenance is required.

The pricing is good and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees. It is similar to that of Cylance and our on-premises solution.

This is a product that I absolutely recommend.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for threat intelligence.

The threat intelligence on offer is the solution's most valuable aspect.

The solution is very stable.

The solution can scale easily.

The pricing is very competitive.

The solution overall is a good product, and we don't see too much room for improvement.

Support, particularly related to after-sales and after deployment, could be improved a bit. If you need to connect to support, it takes at least a day to reach the support team and get a proper reply.

The solution could use better device control.

I believe I've been using the solution for the past three years.

The solution is very stable. We don't find there are any bugs or glitches. We haven't had it crash or freeze on us. It's quite reliable.

The scalability of the solution is good. If a company needs to expand out, they can do so easily with this solution.

In our organization, we have about 2,500 people using the solution. We already use the solution at 100% capacity, meaning everyone in the company uses it. If new employees are onboarded, they also use the solution. Chances are, we will increase usage int he future.

Technical support could move a bit faster. We find that it takes time - at least a day - to reach support and then get a response. Therefore, we're not completely satisfied with the level of service provided to us. It's an area that could be improved upon for sure.

We used to use Carbon Black. We switched due to the fact that this solution offered us better partnership offers.

The initial setup is not complex. It's very, very easy.

You can set up and deploy the product in 30 to 40 minutes. It's straightforward.

You only need a few people to handle deployment and maintenance.

The price is very reasonable and quite competitive in the market.

Before choosing this solution, and switching from Carbon Black, we looked at Endgame and Kaspersky.

We are working with all the versions for the most part, due to the fact that we are partners of CrowdStrike and we position CrowdStrike to our customers. We also use the solution for our company.

I'd recommend the solution to others, however, I would advise that they try it first as a POC so that they can first see the value of the product.

Overall, I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. If technical support could be faster and there was more device control, I would rate the solution higher.

Our primary use case is EDR and ransomware.

The features I like the most are the response time and the dashboard are both excellent.

I would like to see a more accurate integration and an option to check the local machine.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon for more than two years.

The stability is around ninety-eight percent. The other two percent deals directly with the node being unable to detect as normal.

There is scalability but this is not our focus.

We have not had any issues with technical support. Much of what we use is online documentation.

We have used Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, SentinelOne, Carbon Black, and Trend Micro. The observation we have made is the accuracy and detection of CrowdStrike Falcon is excellent.

The initial setup is very straightforward given you have set your file control and detection levels correctly.

The cost is usually a challenge in the industry. I think we pay around sixty-eight dollars.

I would rate CrowdStrike Falcon an eight out of ten.

We use it to monitor everything related to the activity and to block any malicious activity. We are new in the security field in our company.

All the features are beneficial.

They should provide us with good visibility for everything.

We have been using this solution for two years, and it is deployed on cloud. We are also using the latest version.

The stability is amazing, and we don't have any issues.

It is scalable. We have 700 users, and we plan to increase the usage. We only need about three technical staff for deployment and maintenance, a senior systems engineer and two infrastructure managers.

We've used technical support, and I rate them a ten out of ten.

Positive

The setup was straightforward, and it took one month to enable the policy and use cases. We completed it in-house.

It has an annual license, and it is not that expensive.

We evaluated Trend Micro before moving forward with CrowdStrike Falcon.

I rate this solution a ten out of ten. Regarding advice, it is important to learn about CrowdStrike Falcon's capabilities and features. It would be easier to use if they gave that understanding.

We use CrowdStrike Falcon for malware mitigation and hunting.

The most valuable features in CrowdStrike Falcon are the full EDR with antivirus, hunting, reporting, and RTR remote control.

CrowdStrike Falcon could improve by having an easier way to search and use the interface for extracting queries from the data. The interface could improve.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon for approximately eight years.

CrowdStrike Falcon is stable.

The scalability of CrowdStrike Falcon is good.

We have approximately 500 people using this solution in my organization.

We have contacted the support from CrowdStrike Falcon and it is very good.

The initial setup of CrowdStrike Falcon is straightforward.

The price of CrowdStrike Falcon is expensive and should be reduced.

I rate CrowdStrike Falcon a nine out of ten.

It's security-related product. A security environment based on AIML. It is not like the older stuff, which used to have signature-based updates.

It has helped us with security and managing threats that we see currently in our environment.

Because it is security product and acts like an AIML smart product, not merely based on daily/weekly updates and signatures.

Unfortunately, native applications are not supported.

It manages around a few thousand endpoints and servers in our environment, and it is doing well so far.

There are no issues in terms of scalability. 

We can call the tech support, if needed. Then, they have a dedicated rep for us.

It went well. We just installed an app on all the endpoints or devices. They have a good console which helps do this. So, it is as simple as that.

We are using this for endpoint security, so it doesn't need to integrate with anything else.

We evaluated three to four other vendors.

During the PoC, we figured out that this product is far better, and it met our requirements. That is why we went for CrowdStrike. With our PoC, they did a good job in explaining the product. So, the PoC went well, and we were able to achieve what we intended to with it.

Do a thorough PoC. Don't go ever go by the sales team unless you have tested it and know it works for your environment, because every environment is unique. The sales guy will promise you the moon. Only unless you have tested, you know it delivers.

The product has met its purpose for us.

We use both the on-premise and AWS versions. They are both good products and very simple to move, install, and configure.
