Overall Satisfaction with CrowdStrike Falcon

We utilize CrowdStrike Falcon to secure our endpoints (Mac, Linux, Windows). We are using both the endpoint detection and response capabilities as well as device control.

CrowdStrike Falcon addresses the problem of attack/exploitation on endpoints. Maintaining 100% patch compliance at all times on all hosts is a difficult pursuit; having CrowdStrike Falcon on the devices provides peace of mind that systems have a strong level of protection during the patch deployment windows.

Pros

  • Detection of suspicious and malicious activity.
  • Device control to prevent data exfiltration.
  • Low rate of false-positives.

Cons

  • CrowdStrike Falcon keeps adding new product lines. In my opinion, some of these are not up to the same standard of quality as Falcon. Focus on core products.
  • QA testing of channel files
  • Broaden the inventory discovery capabilities to include browser extensions.
  • July 19 2024 bluescreen event caused major business interruption. CrowdStrike Falcon needs to ensure they do not prioritize speed to deliver over testing.
In my opinion, CrowdStrike Falcon provides superior detection and prevention capabilities over Jamf Protect. At the time we purchased (2017) CrowdStrike Falcon was more advanced than SentinelOne and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.
