User Testimonials
	CrowdStrike Falcon	Trellix Endpoint Security ENS
Likelihood to Recommend	CrowdStrike Falcon is well suited for any size of environment. Large to small, CrowdStrike Falcon does an amazing job. The ability to have the same security as a fortune 500 company and have a solution that sees the same threats that they are seeing is amazing. I do not think that there is a company or environment that wouldn't benefit from the CrowdStrike Falcon solution. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	During the pandemic all our users worked remotely that was challenging from security perspective, so we had to deploy the endpoint protection system with cloud based monitoring server. By doing that we were able to keep safety for users workspaces even though some of them did not connect to VPN for a long time Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	The Log analysis is very detailed and easy to use. Prevent and block all type of malwares. Great threat intelligence which is very up-to-date with the recent cyber attacks very user friendly in access and management Automated feature of detecting, taking action and closing incidents using fusion workflow. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Provides high fidelity alerting. Allows CSOC analysts to perform forensic triage and alert investigations through containment from a single pane of glass. Provides alert telemetry across on-disk and in-memory attacks. Supports many additional 'bolt-on' modules to provide additional alert context or capabilities. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	The Dashboard can become overwhelming at times, too much information to absorb Computers that may have made it out into the field without the endpoint sensor are very difficult to find As with all systems that rely on machine learning false positives occurr Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	My biggest flak with McAfee Endpoint Security is that it is quite resource-intensive. It does tend to make the system a little slow. You get security at the expense of your machine's speed. Even though the drive encryption makes the system more secure, it takes a lot of time to first enter the very long password, and then for it to decrypt the whole machine. This sometimes clashes with Windows update and causes a lot of complications which leads to boot loops. Incentivized TP Tanish Pruthi Marketing Associate Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Crowdstrike has a large suite of tools built for helping the engineers triage and respond to security event whenever identified. The ability to customize the security policies and implement more granular policies to different devices based on the functionality is unmatched. Crowdstrike provides so much of ability in a decent budget which ascertains the value for money or ROI. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	I think it is a complete and very trustful XDR platform, with very few False Positives. It is very well supported by highly skilled professionals on all levels: from pre-sales engineers, Customer Account Managers and support engineers.

Con's: Initial cost Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Support is generally pretty fast and gets right to the issue. We haven't had to use them much, fortunately, but the issues and questions we've had are usually answered quickly. The customer success manager/account manager you're assigned will also follow up with you on a regular cadence to ensure you're getting the most out of the subscription. There's not a whole lot of room to improve, other than the general confusion about what is/what is not covered in custom packages you're subscribed to. The initial purchase took much longer because of a package name changes and realignments of different modules into those packages. Incentivized Randy Munroe Information Security Analyst Read full review	The support is pretty good, and I haven't had any issues with getting the highest quality technical support when there are issues. Tech support representatives that I have dealt with know the product quite well and have solved many issues that I have had with the product in the past. The only issue I have with support is that it can be quite expensive. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
In-Person Training	There is limited amount of learning that can be completed in an in-person training available. In my opinion, the self-paced learning provided by Falcon portal is more useful over in-person training. The support from Falcon is great and useful to overcome difficulties, if any. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Online Training	The training provided by Crowdstrike Falcon is complete in terms of the depth of technical knowledge and teaches the users about going through with the platform. There are lots of jargons for different tools that Crowdstrike Falcon has and this training teaches them all which helps in managing the platform better. Plus, the regular knowledge checks are also very helpful for the end user. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic

Alternatives Considered	We were a former Arctic Wolf customer and feel like they worked more as a team with us. Cylance is what we're looking at possibly migrating to. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	We only selected McAfee because we are already using ESET NOD32 for the protection of our desktops and laptops. We didn't want to use the same software for our servers so we chose McAfee instead. I personally like ESET Smart Security better than McAfee when deploying it on a desktop or laptop because I think it protects the PC better. When it comes to web protection, policy updates, etc., McAfee is the better choice and that's why we deployed it on our servers. Incentivized Roberta Jones IT Administrative Specialist Read full review
Return on Investment	CrowdStrike Falcon's proactive threat mitigation has significantly reduced the risk of successful cyber attacks, resulting in tangible savings related to potential data breaches or system compromises. The cloud-native architecture and automated features have improved operational efficiency. The platform's real-time visibility and threat hunting capabilities have drastically improved incident response times. Incentivized James Dilley System Administrator Read full review	This tool helped us in delegating the asset safety responsibility to the client level by 80%, leaving 20% for the management console. With a decent pricing, the benefits are slightly above expectations. The ROI is good. But, considering most of the malware comes from internet, with a good email security appliance and next gen firewall in place, the online security alerts are now redundant. It could be something that can be termed as overkill on the budget. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
