Overall Satisfaction with CrowdStrike Falcon

Falcon serves as an EDR solution and is deployed at every computing endpoint. It provides realtime detection and mitigation of threats by continuously monitoring the endpoint activity telemetry data. The AI/ML features help eradicate zero-day attacks and serve as a preventive measure to protect your organisation against every possible attack vector. Having Falcon agents running on your endpoint protects your infrastructure from threat actors and reduces/negates the risk of data exfiltration and financial loss or reputational damage.

Pros

  • Advanced Endpoint Detection and Response.
  • Next Gen Antivirus.
  • Incident Response and Forensic Readiness.

Cons

  • Limited Built-In Vulnerability Management.
  • Complex Policy Configuration and Tuning.
  • Limited Offline Protection Capabilities
  • Switching to a single security platform helps businesses save significant money. For every dollar spent, companies often get back six dollars in value. These savings come from working faster and avoiding the high costs of data breaches, which are usually recouped within less than half a year.
  • Using modern security tools can cut the risk of a cyberattack by up to 85%. This approach replaces many old, separate programs with one system, saving staff thousands of hours of manual work. Over three years, the total financial benefits are nearly triple the original cost.
  • Protecting user logins pays for itself very quickly, often within 6 months. By using one specialized tool instead of several small ones, companies can save over a million dollars in long-term costs. This reduces staff workload while making the entire business much harder to hack.
  • Using it for Endpoint forensics.
  • Device posture checks.
  • Realtime access to endpoints.
It was just a legacy AV program onboarded during initial setup days. As the org. As it expanded, its threat landscape also grew, and we needed a next-gen solution to protect against evolving threat vectors. Falcon EDR was the one that solved all these in a single place.

Did implementation of CrowdStrike Falcon go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy CrowdStrike Falcon again?

Yes

CrowdStrike Falcon is ideal for large, cloud-native enterprises that prioritize advanced behavioral detection and have a mature SOC to manage their intelligence. However, its cloud-reliant architecture makes it a poor fit for air-gapped or offline networks. Additionally, small organizations with limited staffing may find it difficult to manage, while teams that require integrated SOAR and vulnerability management might be discouraged by the need for additional licensing to unlock those capabilities.
