Falcon reviews

Falcon is easy to use and easy to implement. It delivers the best containment and alerting rate in the market and gives good visibility from IT, IOT and Cloud.

Falcon comes in at a steep budget point.

One of the best EDR solution in market. I really like the interface of the platform, it is so much user friendly. False positives are very less compared to the previous endpoint security solutions we have used. A light weight agent makes it a very stable product.

Not much to say about dislike part but I can say it is costly compared to it peers and I feel the reporting feature can be better.

It does not require any other agent on the client. You can start to use it on current agents on the clients.

The software update policy was a bit uncontrolled.

This tool gave us unparalleled visibility into our environment that we did not have with an old school antivirus agent.

That the initial install on some systems did not go as planned.

Crowdstrike is the next level security for cyber protection offering the best protection and innovative software.

Crowdstrike is hard to navigate at first, but with more use it becomes easier.

Crowdstrike handles endpoint security monitoring and detection better than any solution available.

The rate at which they add partner integrations

Crowdstrike is a modern endpoint protection software. Instead of guarding against a known set of viruses, it detects malicious behavior as well as protecting endpoints from known viruses, ransomware and malware. The admin console is logically and thorough.

Support for Mac and endpoints in steady state environments needs more development. There are some unknowns about duplication of endpoint entries in the console for Macintosh clients.

Powerful Threat Detection and Prevention, Cloud Native Architecture, Lightweight Agent, Centralized Management, Threat Intelligence etc.

Pricing, Complexity, Limited Reporting, Vendor Locking Policy

They do all of the work for us, makes us feel safe and secure at all times.

The only con was the recent downtime they caused due to a rogue update. However, they had it fixed within an hour and provided workarounds that got us quickly back up and running.

We transitioned to Crowdstrike from a traditional endpoint protection solution and the difference was night and day. Crowdstrike Falcon is easy to use and manage, intuitive, incredibly powerful and intelligent, uses a bare minimum of system resources, has a very effective uninstall protection, and is very easy to deploy.

No cons. I highly recommend this product.

Have used this product for several years across multiple organizations. Have seen good return on investment containing malware outbreaks

Not too many. Slightly on the expensive side for licenses

Knowing that our assets are secured and protected by highly skilled security staff 24/7 and that it is go to product for security makes me and the firm feel secure.

Would like it to be cheaper, but the Anti Virus market is different now compared to 10 years ago and you get what you pay for.

Perfect choice for any organization who needs an endpoint detection and response EDR solution.Reliable End point Solution to stop modern day threat and Ransomware attacks. The solution offers comprehensive threat detection, prevention, and response capabilities. The solution can be enabled to protect all types of environments like on-prem. Cloud or hybrid models.

Reporting is having limited functionalities and needs fine-tuning.

The support team is very responsive and helps guide us through any issues we have. They also help clear up what is a rather complex, information filled portal.

There is a ton of information that can be overwhelming if you are not well versed in security. Fortunately the support teams guide you through any confusion you may have.

It is next generation end point protection

I would prefer a non-cloud based option as that requires and Internet connection.

It's really easy and fast to install the Falcon Sensor in the protected hosts.
Its resource consumption is barely noticeable -this was the very specific problem we had with our traditional AV security which motivated us to look into new generation technologies.
Whenever we have some malware detected, we have all the information we need about how it got into the host and what it attempted to do -whether processes were spawned, files or registry attempted to be seen or modified, if it tried to establish network connections, etc.- so our IT, servers and security teams have all the information they need to improve the systems hardening.

Falcon provides only the antivirus / antimalware capabilites, so all the other functions we had with the previous technology are not available, like firewall, IPS, DLP, mail filtering, web filtering, etc. So, in the end we kept the McAfee agent to retain some of them, which means we are spending a little more on technology, but it gets balanced because less work is needed for malware diagnose.

It detects a lot of threats and his easy to manage

I didn’t find any cons for this product, really…

ease of deployment, less false positives and amazing GUI.

This product is bt expensive and they work on their customer service.

Best alerts,
Easy to check processes running,
Best Live Control on computers.

The new design is a little bit off,
and the MAC support is not the best currently.

The app is incredibaly lightweight compared to other competitors like Sophos, which caused one of our webservers grind to a halt. The intergration with Slack is quite useful at pinging the team immediatley when we have high level security issues.

The learning curve of dianosing issues is a bit more steep, and the support team insists on running a extensive windows memory logging before they will talk to you.

I appreciate how easily the network is monitored, including both incoming and outgoing traffic.

Although network monitoring is simple, there is still room for improvement in terms of the graph user interface.
