CrowdStrike Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR vs. Pondurance

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

Incentivized

• There are some integration gaps with other tools. I wish it worked better with LevelBlue AlienVault

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.

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.

Incentivized

• So much less risk of costly malware and breaches
• No training requirements for IT staff to manage the product, white glove service
• More team productivity, one less thing for my team to manage
