Falcon

Vorteile

Durchdachtes Produkt was richtig konfiguriert die Sicherheit in einem Unternehmen erheblich erhöhen kann.

Nachteile

Leider scheint die Qualitätssicherung nicht zu funktionieren wie kürzlich aus den Medien zu entnehmen war.
Es ist großer Schaden entstanden durch Bluescreens überall auf der Welt mitten in der Urlaubszeit. Das darf nicht passieren.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

Falcon comes in at a steep budget point.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

The software update policy was a bit uncontrolled.

Vorteile

I'm not sure about the monitoring portion of the solution - it's making us work overtime to assist them to clamp down on ransomware.

Nachteile

Almost everything - they make us work at night/over the weekend. Instead of deleting the threat and rolling back, it locks down our servers. It would then require IT to work on the backend.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

It is next generation end point protection

Nachteile

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

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

The standout feature of Falcon is its integration with complete falcon platform natively. This integration brings together vulnerability detection, prevention and response capabilities into a cohesive framework of managing the threats.

Nachteile

There may be few challenges that engineers could potentially encounter when using this solution, Falcon may require a certain level of expertise on managing the Vulnerabilities especially dealing with the payloads and also while dealing with the false positives that happens to consume time and resources while validating an alert.

Vorteile

I like the vulnerability management features
It is amazing as a cloud security and computer security software

Nachteile

Well, Falcon meets needs and no issues whatsoever

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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.

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.

Nachteile

Reporting is having limited functionalities and needs fine-tuning.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

No cons. I highly recommend this product.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

It was solid, and not difficult to configure.

Nachteile

It did not integrate as well with MS server platform as Norton

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

Not too many. Slightly on the expensive side for licenses

Warum Falcon gewählt wurde

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Falcon

Vorteile

ease of deployment, less false positives and amazing GUI.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

Very light solution to run on the computers, it is just a client that alerts the portal about the virus on computers and take some actions based on what were configured inside the portal.
Easy to install/deploy, not so many options to choose, it is very straight to the point, also the options and configurations inside management portal are pretty easy to use.
However, it updates automatically on the computers and servers.

Nachteile

Sometimes it is not update automatically, and I had some problems to remove the software, the key that is used to install/remove fails sometimes. I can mention that the computers take some time to appear inside the management portal, and you do not know if it is working properly or not. Another thing that you can miss, you cannot run a scan on your computer manually, to find viruses or other malicious files, it is supposed to be monitored all the time through the portal.

Vorteile

It detects a lot of threats and his easy to manage

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

Good interface, lots of Splunk dashboards integrated in the dashboards. Good drilldown capability. Love the process execution tracking functionality

Nachteile

The interface took a couple hours (tops) to get used to, but it wasn't bad. There was a little snag with Mac OS X Catalina, but that's been resolved.

Vorteile

Falcon is a very great threat detector, it detect problems with out scanning the computer, which make it very light for computer ressources. The console is nice, and it's quite easy to see problem

Nachteile

if I have to say something : It's easy problem, but it could be nice to have resolution tips also.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

Crowdtsrike falcon agent is very lightweight and has lower resource utilization in endpoints. Further it supports all the endpoint operating Systems. Interfaces are simple and even non-technical people can understand. Dashboards are informative and graphical representation is perfect with breakdown approach. It provides remote control of the endpoint through the command line and one of the most needed options which most other Anti viruses don't have. It has threat intelligence with correlation and can map endpoints with an incident to provide the big picture.

Nachteile

Crowdstrike falcon sensor update is frequent and bandwidth utilization is a bit high since each and every node needs updates. When you are in a limited bandwidth with a higher number of PC’s this will cause too high bandwidth utilization and can interrupt your operation. When you. Connecting through proxy server machine detection is taking long.time Crowdstrike doesn’t support Windows XP. So if you have windows XP PCs in your environment you need some other antivirus to protect them.

Vorteile

It takes less storage to install on client machine and protection is good compared from other's. It is really next generation antivirus.

Nachteile

All is good and no need to improvement as per my point of view.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

We have been using since last 6 months, till now everything working fine. its take less storage to install in client machine.

Nachteile

As per my observation Falcon is working smoothly.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

Small Application to install in endpoints. No virus signatures to download. just a sensor to monitor all the process that's running.

Nachteile

All policies has to be managed using the cloud portal. Need internet to everytime I needed to change a policy.

Vorteile

Detailed analysis of processes, logon attempts, and great ability to sync with Splunk and Active Directory. Great dashboard to add to the best parts. The falcon complete team does a great work to ensure endpoint security is well

Nachteile

The falcon complete team sometimes does not provide additional details about False Positive events or why a software was classified malicious.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

The rate at which they add partner integrations

Vorteile

This is a managed service with knowledgeable people and resources that help identify risks and malware live!

Nachteile

The price is a bit high but since the service is managed and the set it and forget nature of the service makes it worth while.

Vorteile

Good overall endpoint protection. They also offer sort of SOC services in which they monitor your environment for threats and report on it.

Nachteile

Very expensive solution...the most expensive I've seen in the market. The solution only supports OS that are newer and does not work with legacy OS like server 2003 and XP

Vorteile

Crowdstrike is a very good next generation anti virus for our company. Simple install and great management platform.

Vorteile

The user interface is very intuitive and easy to use yet very comprehensive. Every detail about your environment is readily available along with any vulnerabilities there may be.

Nachteile

I can't honestly think of any cons at the moment. I've used the product for several weeks now and it has covered every need I have.
