Single-agent architecture enhances security while minimizing complexity and costs
What is our primary use case?
The main use cases for CrowdStrike Falcon from my customers are the lightweight agent, which is very easy to use, and it will protect the complete environment in a single dashboard.
A specific use case from my customers for CrowdStrike Falcon is that the SaaS-based single agent can protect all the platforms.
What is most valuable?
The best features of CrowdStrike Falcon are the single agent and the fact that there is no daily signature update.
There is no daily signature update because it operates as a signatureless solution.
Regarding the lightweight agent, all other solutions have multiple agents, which degrade system performance; however, this single agent has multiple features that increase system performance.
The elimination of on-prem infrastructure through CrowdStrike Falcon's cloud-native architecture has impacted my customers by reducing both cost and complexity, as they are now using the cloud-native solution.
What needs improvement?
I recommend that some deep-dive trainings are required for the NG SIEM, specifically for their next-generation SIEM module, as they need some basic trainings for that.
To clarify, deep-dive trainings are required specifically for the NG SIEM or next-gen SIEM.

How was the initial setup?
It is easy to set up CrowdStrike Falcon.
What was our ROI?
My customers have seen a return on investment with CrowdStrike Falcon.
While I do not have specific details currently available, those who purchased are very happy with the solution.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The price is reasonable when comparing it to other tools.
The license cost is typically per device.
Based on the modules customers purchase, the cost will increase, as they have more than 28 to 32 modules.
What other advice do I have?
The feature called Threat Graph for threat hunting helps in terms of security to predict and prevent breaches by showing how threats are evolving and how we can protect the customer environment, which helps us build better security.
I have integrated CrowdStrike Falcon with existing SIEM solutions and security frameworks.
It helps to streamline incident response processes because it is very easy to integrate with SIEM solutions like IBM QRadar and HPE ArcSight; for the incident response, it helps us correlate with other solutions.
My customers using CrowdStrike Falcon are mainly from all industries, including ITES, finance, marketing, manufacturing, and health.
I recommend that those planning to use CrowdStrike Falcon should migrate from their old traditional antivirus to next-gen antivirus, which will help them protect their environment.
The biggest advantage of this solution for my customers is that it is a single solution that fulfills most of their security concerns while being easy to manage.
I rate CrowdStrike Falcon ten out of ten.

Exceptional and Reliable Endpoint Protection
What do you like best about the product?
What impresses me most is its ability to stop advanced threats in real-time without affecting our systems' performance at all. The agent is extremely lightweight, and users don't even notice it's running. The cloud management console is powerful, easy to use, and gives us complete visibility into everything happening on our endpoints, providing invaluable peace of mind.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, it's hard to find a negative aspect. Perhaps the only point to consider is that the cost can be higher than other solutions on the market. However, the superior quality of protection, ease of management, and the product's effectiveness completely justify the investment. It's a case of "you get what you pay for," and in this case, it's the best security possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CrowdStrike solves critical problems: it effectively protects us against advanced cyberattacks like ransomware, which other antivirus programs miss, without impacting computer performance. It also greatly simplifies security management and allows us to investigate and neutralize any threat in minutes.
CrowdStrike Falcon Endpoint Protection : Security and Features ( EDR)
What do you like best about the product?
We have been using Crowstrike's Falcon Platform for over 5 years now. It is great at what is does and while the Falcon Platform itself can be pricey (though about on par for the competition), additional tools are included or very affordable (SIEM/Log Collector or CSPM for example). It's very easy to deploy, especially in a modern setting. The functionality within the tool is exactly what our team is looking for - EDR, isolation, remote response, and more. Charlotte AI helps detection and response with autonomous reasoning and action.
What do you dislike about the product?
Good Product for security point of view but TAC support can be much better.
Also, Cost is very High.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Real-Time Detection - Uses advanced behavioral analytics to identify and stop attacks quickly. Lightweight Cloud-Native Agent - Minimal impact on endpoint performance with easy deployment and updates. Intuitive User Interface - Clean, user-friendly dashboard that simplifies monitoring and incident response.
Highly Recommended for Enterprise-Grade Endpoint Protection
What do you like best about the product?

The platform's integration with other tools (SIEM, SOAR) also makes it highly versatile in complex environments.
What do you dislike about the product?
some advanced features may require separate licensing tiers, which can add to overall cost and complexity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
faster incident response, reduced dwell time, improved threat hunting, and increased confidence in our overall endpoint security posture. Its cloud-native architecture also ensures scalability and ease of management across large environments.

Smarter, Faster Protection with CrowdStrike.
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about CrowdStrike Falcon is how lightweight it is. It keeps our devices secure without slowing them down, and I barely notice it's even running.

One thing I don’t love about CrowdStrike Falcon is that it can be a bit pricey compared to other options. But, we do get solid protection for the cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CrowdStrike Falcon is solving the headache of keeping our devices safe from new threats. It runs in the background, stays up-to-date, and just works no fuss and no interruptions.
Good performance and protection during any malware are detected during any implementation.
What do you like best about the product?
Easy for useage and implementation. Strength that I like most during sensor stuck, we require token from console, we can retrieve the token and execute on command prompt. If any system is stuck with an old version and if we are not able to uninstall it, then the team guides us in other ways within the guidelines is good support we are getting. If we knowingly or unknowingly install other third-party applications, if it harmful this antivirus detects and gives some information that this application is harmful. It has good features and performs smoothly.
What do you dislike about the product?
During the uninstallation of CrowdStrike we are facing some issues, on the host management console maintenance token is not accepted when the host is disconnected. Again, we need to go to the CS API console and then execute the commands to get the specified token then it is getting uninstalled. Mostly on server time taking to uninstall and upgrade the sensor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am glad to have this CrowdStrike application in my organization. I have been working on this application since 1.5years, seen many operations on endpoint systems through the policy it is installed. As we work on detections and incidents on priority to close and navigation totally understandable to work exact category. We have multiple servers in multiple locations across India that are communicating with CS that are working it and fine, if facing any issues will TAC with Falcon team address and they will provide good support to us until we fix the issue. Overall, a good experience, recommended application with circle members.
