Been a very Happy Customer for about 3 years now.
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that it stops the bad actors and gives me the tools I need to respond. We rolled out CS in a couple of months to over 10 thousand customers. We were a McAfee Customer for almost 20 years and could not be more satisfied with CS.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hard to figure out what addition services we own, versus what we need to purchase. We have had several outages in the cloud, almost like they had to increase capacity, not a big deal, but annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Removed multiple, resource intensive agents on computers. Getting advanced threat protection.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend this product.
The IR tool that you want on your side, making IR simpler since 2011.
What do you like best about the product?
The all-in-one capability of the tool, one sensor gets rid of so many other UI's. The tool collects so much information about the endpoint that the sky is the limit on what problems can be solved. Having SPL built into the tool makes our IR lives easier and allows us to not learn a new query language. Having data is great but making it actionable is where CrowdStrike thrives in this area, having multiple API's to ensure integrations can be easily done allows small businesses have comparable IR programs to large enterprises where there are 50+ employees in the security team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be daunting to navigate the functionality, since the tool does so much. Improvements could be made with the UI, it's a lot of data thrown into the tool. For the cost of the tool training should be free, if you want better practitioners/advocates for your tool invest in them! They are going to go to another company and demand for CS to make their life easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visibility, visibility, and more visibility. Before CS there was no visibility, after CS workflows were made, alerts were being responded too, we've created a stronger footprint through CrowdStrike EDR. Better team collaboration it's not just for the IR team, the network team uses the data, cloud operations teams use it, and security upper management uses it to make the security posture better. The API's are straightforward and can be easily integrated with Splunk and other security tools to make the security tool environment better through automation. Automation is the most critical aspect of the security program and upper management demands that, CrowdStrike enables security teams to be better.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go with the market leader, they are so focused and dialed in its unbelievable. Having them on your side is crucial to fight the bad guys.
Crowdstrike Deep Protection for your Network
What do you like best about the product?
Spotlight gives us the ability to know immediately when software with known vulnerabilities are installed on endpoints. By drilling down you can see the risks associated with the suspected software as well as suggestion for remediation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not really a dislike, but...
I was, at first, daunted by the Falcon portal, but once I went through the training and set thru a few webinars I realized it is not as complicated as it first seemed. Looking at it now I feel the setup is very logically arranged.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
By moving away from the traditional anti-virus that constantly scans on systems, eating their precious resources our system became noticeably faster after the transition to Falcon.
Takes the work out of my hands
What do you like best about the product?
CrowdStrike is small, low CPU, and I have not had an infection in over 2 years with 1100 machine in the company.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cloud based part takes 20-30 min to make a change and have it go to the cloud, then propagate back down, there is no instant fix.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I said above I have not had an infection of any kind in 2 years and 1100+ machines. It does the work and I don't have to stay safe.

If you have not tried it, do he Demo and you will become a user!!!
Complete EDR Solution
What do you like best about the product?
A leader in malware protection and the best in-class ransomware protection an enterprise can get. The product offerings is a complete solution for endpoint protection, or you can invest into their managed service offerings like Overwatch. Overwatch is a great addition to ensure protection from adversaries and their attacks on an organization. CrowdStrike’s UI and module offerings is powerful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The product is not a cheap solution. It’s expensive, but of course to get the best in industry don’t expect it to be cheap. There is a reason why CrowdStrike is the leader in EDR, but the cost is high. Today its more expensive to deal with a breach, but that is something you always have to balance when you look at breach costs separately.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The threat landscape is large and CrowdStrike provides that elastic-like protection no matter where devices are located today.
Crowdstrike: The Leading Endpoint Protection Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Having been a customer of Crowdstrike for 5 years I was initially highly attracted to the ease of deployment by a small team. Having most recently deployed the platform in a larger enterprise, I enjoy the reliability in which Falcon responds to threats. The ability to directly interact with a protected endpoint using Real Time Response at the CLI level and remediate problems has been a lifesaver. Crowdstrike's growth and acquisitions are done in a sensible means which deliberately stand to enhance the platform's capabilities and consolidate other operator toolsets into a single unified platform. Having been a part of key boards within the company, as a customer I have been able to shape and contribute to the success of the platform's evolution and development.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly nothing at all. If there have been times in which customer's are unhappy with a feature or function change, Crowdstrike is very responsive to customer feedback and works quickly and proactively to improve the Falcon platform based on feedback.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving more problems that foreseen on the initial investment. We started with endpoint protection and have added most of the remaining Falcon stack elements over time. A distinctive capability of this tool is the ability to have choice roles assigned to administrators based on their needs (and lack thereof) and scaling back capabilities of an administrator as they learn to use the platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ask for reference calls with customers in your industry to understand how Crowdstrike Falcon can best serve your organization. The proof of concept is enough to convince the most skeptical to consider using the Falcon platform.
CrowdStrike: The Best Endpoint Protection Suite I have ever used!
What do you like best about the product?
I love utilizing the process chart. It allows me to understand exactly what event occurred on a machine that was identified as suspicious. I do really like that training videos that are provided.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would say the thing I like the least is having to create exceptions for false positives. This is not strictly for this application and is something that usually has to be training into a software like this. The platform is really awesome and powerful but it is a little intimidating
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Issues with users infecting their machines by plugging devices into their company devices, advanced scanning and monitoring to be alerted of suspicious activity before it causes damage to the end user or the company.
Must have for Enterprise. A phenomenal Tool with great addition of Machine Learning capabilities.
What do you like best about the product?
Best part of Falcon Crowdstrike is to detect the potential Malicious activities attributing with Mitre Att&ck framework which covers upto date adversaries Tactics, Techniques and Procedures. Capability to analyze a malware wit Machine Learning Sensor is a great addon feature. Threat Hunting feature to detect the undetected threats in the network excites me as an analyst. Great Learning.Support like Overwatch & TAC made this Crowdstrike a Numer Uno EDR in the industry.
What do you dislike about the product?
Personally i felt there is nothing much to dislike about Crowdstrike . UI Could have been better. We have rarely found few misconfigurations during weekends and but it got fixed immediately with a request to Crowdstrike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to detect every malicious activity from sophisticated threat actors with this EDR. Very feasible for event based Hunting and TTP Based Hunting. It has completely resolved the problem of maintaining a Separate AV, Threat Intel and EDR platforms as Crowd strike itself is a Threat Intelligence Platform , AV & EDR.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It gets my strong recommendation to every enterprise which is looking for securing against every malicious activity .It has great features , ease of use, phenomenal support from Crowdstrike like Overwatch , TAC . Crowdstrike is capable of Catching a small keylogger program to ransomwares . The ability to detect and prevent the malicious code durting the time of execution what makes the product worth implementing in the enterprise.
EDR at it's best
What do you like best about the product?
The assistance for performing real-time response, documentation, crowdstrike support.
What do you dislike about the product?
User management within child CIDs needs to be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
managed Endpoint detection and response, real-time response, threat intelligence are the good features I saw.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Crowdstrike was feature in the Gartner's quadrant and definitely a worthy product.
