Excellent suite of endpoint security capabilities from edr, ngav, threat intelligence to VAPT, DLP and even Sanboxing features. In comparison to other Edr market leaders, crowdstrike provides the easiest way of onboarding and integration. Also as per my experience, it is the most user friendly application with its threat event triaging summary.

User friendliness for end users, administrators and soc analysts. Also it provides the best threat detection summary which is easy to understand and addition of ML/ioc exclusion or custom rules is also very much easy.

Sometimes the portal is a bit slow with increasing number of endpoints. Considering Crowdstrike is a total SAAS product, may be fine tuming of the resources might solve this problem, although i must stay this is not at all a showstopper.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you are looking to onboard any Edr product for your organisation, go for it. Based on my experience, this product is far ahead than its other competitors as per Gartner quadrant. I have done poc on multiple other edr tools of McAfee, Microsoft and those are not at all easy from onboarding pov only. Multiple connectors, components need to be setup, whereas for Crowdstrike we have deployed the tenant and 3000 endpoints in a single week. You can guess how much easy to use this product really this. Have been working on this since 2018, and can’t express the amount of improvement and enhancements that have been done.
