Overall Satisfaction with CrowdStrike Falcon

We use CrowdStrike as our endpoint protection and server protection, anti-virus, and malware product. We also leverage the firewall and USB device restrictions for our endpoint systems. We use it on both our Windows and Mac endpoints and on our Windows server infrastructure.
  • Firewall rules and policy that are cloud-managed is great to ensure devices are in compliance.
  • Low engineering time spent after implementation, we don't have to babysit the product. It just works.
  • Low amount of false positives.
  • I would like an option to be able to scan files/folders. I understand, however, that this isn't really the way the product is designed and that it is designed around actively running processes. But it would be great to have a way to scan incoming media before loading it on our systems.
  • Reduced engineering time spent on managing the product by 80% vs. our old solution.
Other antivirus platforms. We've been able to completely move to CrowdStrike for our end-user workstations.
Reduced cost and time spent managing security solutions.
We utilize falcon to handle our antivirus/antimalware platform. We utilize the firewall module to handle our end-user firewall rules and management policy.

Do you think CrowdStrike Falcon delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with CrowdStrike Falcon's feature set?

Yes

Did CrowdStrike Falcon live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of CrowdStrike Falcon go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy CrowdStrike Falcon again?

Yes

I would like to see a way to be able to scan files/folders. We regularly receive data from opposing sides and it would be excellent to be able to scan all the files within production to check for anything before giving our users access to the data. Currently, we have to use another product for this use case. We like that we don't have to put a ton of time into the platform after deployment. We're able to set up policies to auto-update definitions and the client without us needing to touch it. We don't regularly get false positives that require us to take action to allow a user to keep working.

Upgrading CrowdStrike Falcon

Yes - The releases are regularly automated and we don't have to do much with it. It deploys to our end users automatically and it has yet to be an issue.
