Overall Satisfaction with CrowdStrike Falcon Endpoint Protection

We are using it across our entire organization as our primary end-point protection product. Our last product was beginning to fail and cause serious issues with unneeded blocks as well as performance issues with time-critical systems. We were highly interested in the EDR aspects not involved in traditional anti-malware functions as well as the intelligence functions by CrowdStrike Falcon Endpoint Protection.
  • Provides actionable detection data.
  • Lightweight and forgiving agent. We've had zero failures when deploying the agent across our organization.
  • The searches in the Discovery module are extremely useful for reporting purposes. For us, it satisfies a lot of HiTrust requirements.
  • Some search speeds are pretty slow. Having to wait a long time for results.
  • Sometimes [ I feel] the data being presented in detection is not obvious as to why it is being considered malicious.
  • We have greater visibility into our endpoints
  • HiTrust requirements
XDR and Crowdstrike were about even for us. Carbon Black was the agent we were replacing due to failures.
Yes - Carbon Black Protect. It was causing multiple failures both on false blocks and allows. It was causing patient care issues as well.

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

Did implementation of CrowdStrike Falcon go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy CrowdStrike Falcon again?

Yes

Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR (formerly Demisto), Imperva Data Security (formerly SecureSphere for Data)
As an EDR product, it performs extremely well. The EDR product realm is still growing so it stands to reason that there should be more competition to drive prices down. I do feel that CrowdStrike Falcon Endpoint Protection support of Linux is getting much better and I have little trouble getting it installed.
