This is pretty good AV product - lightweight, easy to install, and easy on system resources. It will take some getting used to on the end user side, it doesn't scan in a traditional way, and it does not have a taskbar icon so it hard to know if it's working or installed. My only complaint would be the false positives which I know every AV system has, but the problem with Barkly is that it alerts the users with a message (which they freak out about) and it alerts IT with an email. Again, not a major issue, but it can be annoying until it is overridden. The override process is super easy though, so its again, not a big deal.

Well, that's an easy one to answer... it's very well suited to all aspects of our operation. In our office network environment, I've been able to trust CrowdStrike Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR to catch several inadvertent malware downloads by end users that were not paying attention. I don't have any experience with scenarios where CrowdStrike Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR is inappropriate to deploy

Pros
LevelBlue
  • Customer Service. Usually, I'd put the technical details up front, and they're good with that too. But the service from pre-sales all the way through onboarding and continued account management is top tier. Our onboarding schedule got messed up, partly because of us, but that was rather minor. I always get prompt replies to any tickets, and they've even reached out to discuss my feature requests. When it comes to security, it's critical to have a responsive team, and they've got it.
  • Detection seems good. It's hard to quantify exactly, but it seems that they always detect the bad actors. And when we get an alert, they include a bunch of details so we know what kind of scan they're trying to do, how far they got, etc. You can't prevent everyone from doing a scan on your IP, but it gives you a really good idea of where your soft spots might be. And if you're getting those low-level alerts, it's a reminder that it's there and working if you have a major event too.
  • Very easy setup. This goes back to their customer support to some extent, as they walk you through all the steps required. But it's also about their technical solution, it's not so overly complex that it's fragile, nor does it take a great deal of time to deploy. And it's been zero effort to maintain since then.

  • There are some integration gaps with other tools. I wish it worked better with LevelBlue AlienVault
  • Playbooks can be less than intuitive
  • Difficult to communicate with support at times, offshore support has difficulties understanding the request.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR is a turnkey solution that is easy to deploy and operate, providing protection without requiring heavy internal management. The 24/7 coverage ensures continuous monitoring and response gives me peace of mind and allows me to focus on business issues. Integrating with Slack allows for timely alerts directly in existing workflows. Reporting is clear, concise, and easy to understand for both my teams and upper management. Support is generally OK and responsive, but as previously mentioned offshore comprehension issues can occur. Still, the overall quality and reliability of support is OK.

I was using Alert Logic Insight for myself to improve my skills and ability to it. My organization was not happy using our previous website security program so I recommended for them to use this software. It has been more than 1 year and still, they are using this program without having any problem so far.

CrowdStrike Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR stands out against Palo Alto XDR to me by offering fully managed 24/7 MDR, which took the burden off my team. While Palo Alto XDR provided adequate protection and integration across network, cloud, and endpoints, it required a lot of in-team expertise for us to manage it. We changed to CrowdStrike Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR because of its white-glove service, incident response, and support and much better ROI for us.
