Exceptional threat protection with turnkey service.

  • March 17, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a customer of CrowdStrike's Falcon Complete, our endpoint protection is fully managed from detection to remediation. It's great peace of mind having CrowdStrike's team monitoring things around the clock, especially for a security team with limited resources such as ours. We all sleep better at night knowing we have CrowdStrike acting as an extension of our team keeping us protected against threats. The protection is superb and the level of false positives even with security settings tuned to the higher end are few and far between and easy to whitelist if needed. Falcon is very lightweight compared to other clients we have run in the past as well which is a nice bonus. The solution logs to our QRadar SIEM with minimal setup which is also great, just a quick API key generation and installation of the apps within QRadar and you're up and running.
What do you dislike about the product?
We do have some legacy systems within our environment that for one reason or another we're required to keep around. Falcon won't run on these which is completely understandable but this really is the only thing I could really include as a dislike. However, CrowdStrike does have a partner network of other solutions which can integrate to the console and provide additional security where CrowdStrike Falcon cannot run. For some of our legacy systems we utilize Airlock Digital to lockdown these legacy systems with application whitelisting. Some endpoint protection suites are still offered with limited legacy support, it would be nice to see some more modern platforms offering a level of protection for these markets but as I said - I understand the need to focus on the main userbase. The UI is a little over loaded but it's not difficult to manage overall - just feels like it could be laid out a bit better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of our most significant challenges we faced when using more legacy endpoint protection products was the lack of EDR capabilities and being limited to the availability and capabilities of our staff. With traditional endpoint protection, without EDR, infections could run rampant on the network before one could get a handle on them even with well trained staff at the wheel. In addition to this, staffing limitations were also a problem with our legacy solution. We simply didn't have the budget to have experts operating around the clock and had to resort to best effort capabilities by help desk staff to escalate when it was needed - wasting precious time in the IR process. CrowdStrike Falcon complete gives us both a quality product with EDR capabilities and excellent detection capabilities along with a team of experts monitoring and available to remediate threats around the clock.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are in need of quality endpoint protection to help sleep easier at night, CrowdStrike Falcon is certainly a good direction to go with. As with most cutting edge endpoint protection platforms, you will pay a small price premium but endpoint protection isn't something to cut corners with. The threat actor only needs to be successful once to make your life miserable and cost your organizations a significant amount of money.

Zero regrets

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a Falcon Complete customer, I like the peace of mind that comes from knowing all detections or issues will be remediated by CrowdStrikes knowledgeable staff. All issues, no matter how minor, have all been addressed within an average of 15 min with either an email, or a phone call for issues requiring immediate attention.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing...there are no downsides at all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CrowdStrike has more than paid for itself with its breach detection and prevention in my organization. The peace of mind that our data is secure is worth the extremely reasonable cost.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dont debate it, just do it. It will be the best money you ever spent and you can have complete confidence in the security of your endpoints and organizations data. The sensor is extremely lightweight and creates no overhead for for the machine.

True Next-Gen A/V with Small Footprint - I love it

  • March 17, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Falcon has a small footprint and is very easy to deploy. No noticeable degradation in performance. The amount of telemetry it captures is amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard takes some getting used to. Also, price point is a bit high, but I feel it's worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We now have endpoint protection on every system in our network, including SQL, Exchange, Linux, Mac, etc. We feel much more adequately protected than we did with anything else.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take time to listen to the TAM webinars and make sure you follow the best practices

CrowdStrike Falcon - An affordable and very secure anti-virus solution

  • March 17, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about CrowdStrike is its platform and GUI. It includes an immense amount of detail about workstations that have the software downloaded. Very easy to monitor and manage from the interface itself. The dashboards are very in depth and creates an audit type of trail of what action a user performed to what file path it was in to the exact application they opened! It is a very in depth application that is very helpful in monitoring a handful of computers in a domain. It is very affordable for small-medium sized businesses and in my opinion one of the best.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some things I dislike about CrowdStrike is not being able to easily send logs to a Syslog device. Log management seems to be a bit complex to just forward them to a log management or SIEM tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CrowdStrike has helped us with various compliance needs, plus has provided us with an effective Anti-Virus solution. We also manage workstation firewalls with the software and USB device control. Many other features included...
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think the best thing about CrowdStrike Falcon: Endpoint Protection is the amount of different features and tools that a user can configure from. This can range from prevention policies, detection management, firewall policies, USB policies, Response policies, Containment Policies, Sensor Update Policies, and many more. Additionally you can visit the store to add more add-ons from either CrowdStrike or external vendors to enhance the security and software of the application.

Protect your infrastructure with absolute confidence!

  • March 17, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
CrowdStrike's central management platform is absolutely fantastic. As a thinly-staffed department in our organization, we need to do much more with less and we absolutely cannot sacrifice when it comes to security. We have the ability to easily manage all of our endpoints any time, anywhere.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, the data reported from a detection can be a bit cryptic and requires more digging from an admin perspective to get to the truth of the story.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We filled a huge gap in the security practices in our organization. We moved from a mismatched & mismanaged solution to a single platform that monitors all of our endpoints and servers from one single location. With CrowdStrike's team behind us, I am 100% confident that we have the tools we need to stay safe. And when it is beyond our capability, we have CrowdStrike watching our back proactively.

My experience with CrowdStrike

  • March 09, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Crowdstrike is it's ease of use and level of detail. I can quickly see what tactics were used, where it was located, and what was blocked and running.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about CrowdStrike is that sometimes it does not clean up stale processes or prior process in the activity tree. I believe this was recently remediated with the new "remediation" option in the prevention policies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Defending against any and all forms of malware!

Does the job, doesn't kill your endpoint.

  • March 09, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Crowdstrike is lightweight in performance impact, but a heavyweight in protection. The amount of detail that it can pull off of the endpoint, determine actions that are being taken, and the ability to completely isolate the endpoint is unmatched. Once the product is installed, which is super easy, it auto-updates and becomes maintenance-free. On top of that, you can add functionality and not have to install another agent - local Firewall management, device lockdown, vulnerability detection\review (Spotlight). The icing on the cake is using the Falcon Complete service - they do all of the work for you.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the Mac features stayed up to date with the Windows and now LInux features. We have 20% of our end users with Macs. While the main Crowdstrike Falcon product works well, we do not get support for Firewall, Device Lockdown, or Spotlight.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Previously, we had another endpoint protection tool. It did a great job, but working for an engineering company - almost all users would complain about the performance impact to their endpoint. Everyone knew it was there. During our POC testing, we pushed this out to several engineer endpoints and after a week they called to ask us when we were going to push it to them. They did not even notice that it was there and we were already throwing test files at it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The easiest answer is "test it". Work on a POC, get it running on a few devices and then throw test files at it. Compare it with your current or other contenders. Review what the user experience is, what the admin or operations team experience is. You will not be disappointed. Very simple to stand up a POC.
