True Next-Gen A/V with Small Footprint - I love it
What do you like best about the product?
Falcon has a small footprint and is very easy to deploy. No noticeable degradation in performance. The amount of telemetry it captures is amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard takes some getting used to. Also, price point is a bit high, but I feel it's worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We now have endpoint protection on every system in our network, including SQL, Exchange, Linux, Mac, etc. We feel much more adequately protected than we did with anything else.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take time to listen to the TAM webinars and make sure you follow the best practices

CrowdStrike Falcon - An affordable and very secure anti-virus solution
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about CrowdStrike is its platform and GUI. It includes an immense amount of detail about workstations that have the software downloaded. Very easy to monitor and manage from the interface itself. The dashboards are very in depth and creates an audit type of trail of what action a user performed to what file path it was in to the exact application they opened! It is a very in depth application that is very helpful in monitoring a handful of computers in a domain. It is very affordable for small-medium sized businesses and in my opinion one of the best.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some things I dislike about CrowdStrike is not being able to easily send logs to a Syslog device. Log management seems to be a bit complex to just forward them to a log management or SIEM tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CrowdStrike has helped us with various compliance needs, plus has provided us with an effective Anti-Virus solution. We also manage workstation firewalls with the software and USB device control. Many other features included...
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think the best thing about CrowdStrike Falcon: Endpoint Protection is the amount of different features and tools that a user can configure from. This can range from prevention policies, detection management, firewall policies, USB policies, Response policies, Containment Policies, Sensor Update Policies, and many more. Additionally you can visit the store to add more add-ons from either CrowdStrike or external vendors to enhance the security and software of the application.
Realtime Response is Powerful
What do you like best about the product?
The realtime response function allows us to quickly and easily vet a given alert and take appropriate escalation action or make the decision to network-contain the host. Containment is quick, safe and easily reversed which allows time for appropriate research if needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Splunk backend has certain query size return limitations that make extended investigations painful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing an enterprise endpoint security program.
Protect your infrastructure with absolute confidence!
What do you like best about the product?
CrowdStrike's central management platform is absolutely fantastic. As a thinly-staffed department in our organization, we need to do much more with less and we absolutely cannot sacrifice when it comes to security. We have the ability to easily manage all of our endpoints any time, anywhere.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, the data reported from a detection can be a bit cryptic and requires more digging from an admin perspective to get to the truth of the story.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We filled a huge gap in the security practices in our organization. We moved from a mismatched & mismanaged solution to a single platform that monitors all of our endpoints and servers from one single location. With CrowdStrike's team behind us, I am 100% confident that we have the tools we need to stay safe. And when it is beyond our capability, we have CrowdStrike watching our back proactively.
Out of the Box functionality to hit the ground running
What do you like best about the product?
As the title implies, CriwdStrike has a lot of out of features that are available out of the box (dependent on subscriptions naturally), but it did not require a lot of heavy configuration and architecture to start running. Which is great if you are part of a small team with multiple competing responsibilities, this is one thing at least you don't have to worry too much over.
CrowdStrike Ideas forum is also great as it allows customers to submit ideas for how to improve the product, and in some cases get quick turnaround from an idea posted to a message board to implementation.

What do you dislike about the product?
There was a lot of repetitive manual configuration required in some cases, especially in building Prevention Policies and Groups. It would have been nice to be able to make a template policy which could be copied and tweaked for subgroups or dev/test vs prod groups etc, instead of have to start from scratch and build what is essentially the same policy twice (minus a setting or two). This was addressed in the Ideas forum as mentioned in the "What do you like Best" field and hopefully will be added to the platform soon.
Citrix template servers can create multiple copies of themselves in the host list which have to be manually deleted creating a lot of work whenever changes to the template are made and they are rebooted, creating new spawns.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Upgrading to NGAV from a hybrid signature based AV solution has cut down on processing load, workstation side.We no longer have to create exceptions for entire application folders in order to ensure the software can run without AV crashing the system anytime it scans, ensuing an overall more secure landscape on user machines.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
CrowdStrike is a great product. It lets you hit the ground running. Especially for a small team the lack of heavy config and ease of use make a huge difference in building out the environment,

The Best is Yet to Come
What do you like best about the product?
Crowdstrike's Falcon does an excellent job in detecting malware and gives visibility into what the attack vector.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support for Mac's New OS, the new M1 chip and Linux support has been lacking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Complete security visibility into securing our endpoints and discovering if any of the endpoints have been compromised. Out of all our security tools Crowdstrike is usually the first to report about anomalous activity and in some cases has already prevented the attack.
My experience with CrowdStrike
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Crowdstrike is it's ease of use and level of detail. I can quickly see what tactics were used, where it was located, and what was blocked and running.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about CrowdStrike is that sometimes it does not clean up stale processes or prior process in the activity tree. I believe this was recently remediated with the new "remediation" option in the prevention policies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Defending against any and all forms of malware!
