"Powerful and Reliable Endpoint Protection for Modern SOC Operations"
What do you like best about CrowdStrike Falcon Endpoint Protection Platform?

What I like best about CrowdStrike Falcon is how fast and reliable it is when detecting threats. Just recently, it flagged a suspicious PowerShell script running on one of our endpoints. Within minutes, we had a full timeline of the activity, including the parent process and command line details. That helped us respond quickly and avoid any impact.

As a SOC analyst , I also appreciate how easy it is to navigate. The interface is clean, and the alerts are well-organized, which makes it easier to learn and understand real-world attack patterns. It doesn’t just throw alerts—it gives context, which is super helpful when you're still building your skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrowdStrike Falcon Endpoint Protection Platform?

While CrowdStrike Falcon is a powerful and reliable platform, some features can be a bit overwhelming for new users. It takes time to get used to the interface and understand how to use all the modules effectively. Also, the filtering options in the investigation tab could be improved—sometimes it's hard to narrow down alerts quickly when you're dealing with a large volume.

A helpful improvement would be to make the search and filtering more flexible and user-friendly, especially in the event timeline and process tree views. That would make investigations faster and smoother, especially for SOC teams handling multiple incidents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Crowdstike Falcon EDR: A SOC Analyst 's Hands-On review"
What do you like best about CrowdStrike Falcon Endpoint Protection Platform?

The threat graph and behavioral analytics make it easier to investigate incidents and correlate activities quickly. I also like how lightweight the agent is—it doesn’t slow down endpoints, and updates are seamless.

The main drawback is the steep learning curve for new analysts, especially when diving into advanced hunting queries. Some of the alerts can be very noisy, requiring fine-tuning to avoid false positives. The pricing is also on the higher side compared to other EDR solutions, which might be challenging for smaller organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of implementation stood out. Deployment was fast with minimal disruption. The interface is intuitive, and the lightweight agent doesn’t impact system performance. Its broad feature set (threat detection, EDR, vulnerability management) is robust, and the frequency of use is daily since it runs seamlessly in the background.

What do you dislike about CrowdStrike Falcon Endpoint Protection Platform?

The cost can be somewhat concerning, particularly when considering the price of additional modules such as IAM and SOAR. I hope they will consider offering free access for at least 50 to 100 devices to allow users to test their features, as this could encourage customers like me to take their product more seriously. Overall, I like their product and believe it is worth the investment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
