CrowdStrike SMB Customer Testimonial

CrowdStrike eliminated the need to manually watch over the console and allow us to move our focus elsewhere.

What were your challenges with Microsoft?

Complexity was largest factor for us and we have a very small team. So we needed a vendor to offload some of the daily tasks too.

On the operations side, it reduced the tasks to whitelist left and right and investigate false positives. Once sensors are deployed we rarely touch the console/setup. Integration with Falcon LogScale helped as no extra logging agent was needed on endpoints, only on important servers the LogScale agent. Removed Tenable agent scanner from endpoints too.

The human factor. There is a person looking at what the algorithm says is important and acting beyond the simple solutions.

We made the choice based on cost comparisons, but have found it more transparent and adaptive.

CrowdStrike is well-known in the public sector and is better suited for larger organizations. SentinelOne might work well for small organizations that do not have a large number of endpoints to manage/upgrade the agent on. CrrowdStrike is also a leader in threat intelligence. By switching to CrowdStrike we also expected to be better protected against actual threats, whereas SentinelOne frequently returned false positives.

We were looking for XDR solutions we found CrowdStrike is the best in the industry as per Gartner Magic Quadrant report.

CrowdStrike Customer Testimonial

I can sleep better ; ) Insight into our environment increased tremendously. Spotlight is a game changer for us to prioritize resources for patch management, and the Complete team has been superb so far. I also think that CorwdStrike is moving in the right direction concerning Identity Protection, OT, and XDR.

We didn’t like how SentinelOne is just sold and operated by “anyone” where Crowdstrike at least stated they home grow their analyst, plus the product isn’t sold out for 3rd parties to operate and resell.

We received SentinelOne coverage through our data breach and recovery vendor with very little to no visibility into the dashboard. Additionally, it takes up more resources that Crowdstrike which on some of our user’s machines caused some lag.

SentinelOne generated a number of false positives and frequently made fixing the false positives tricky.

SentinelOne also required a lot of upkeep in that you had to go into the Console and deploy new versions of the agent. This became very time-consuming as new agent updates are released every few weeks.

System Administrator, Educational Institution

The biggest issues related to false positives, which were disruptive to operations. In general, S1 was too resource intensive.

What challenges did you have with SentinelOne?

Confusing and poorly integrated management views.

Security Manager, Small Business Computer Hardware Company

CrowdStrike Customer Testimonial

Customers Compare CrowdStrike to S1

We were running an on-prem management setup and this caused quite a lot of forced upgrades, due to updated S1 agents often requiring an upgrade of the management as well. Since this was mainly driven by S1 to push out new features, we felt pushed towards a product, which was doing much more than what we wanted to have.

CrowdStrike had more robust performance and results.

Security Officer, Medium Enterprise Automotive & Transport Company

Very useful tool for a small team supporting a medium size company. Optimization of the software seems to have no performance drag on any of our deployed systems, which is an improvement over previous security suite.

IT Specialist, Medium Enterprise Transportation Services Company

Once set up, Crowdstrike is much easier to maintain and generates far fewer false positives than prior solutions.

Following the deployment of CrowdStrike, Fortune realized improved efficiency of our security operations and we were able to find and shut down threats we had no prior knowledge of.

CrowdStrike Customer Satisfaction Rating

Robb Hogg, an IT Director at Cross Company, would be very likely to recommend CrowdStrike for SMB for this reason:

CrowdStrike covers all the bases from prevention to remediation. It’s an incredibly good offering that would be difficult to beat from a technical level.

CrowdStrike Customer Testimonial

The biggest gain was deployment and client management as Crowdstrike is cloud native and does not rely on data file updates to provide updated protection. The dashboard visibility into the kill chain allows for faster time to understand the threat.

For SMBs Who Wear Multiple Hats

Before, we had multiple solutions to cover servers, workstations, and Mac devices which was hard to train, hard to license, and hard to manage for the IT staff. With CrowdStrike, one individual can manage all of them as a small portion of his normal tasks.

Because Your Time is Precious

Because we are using a single, centralized platform, the amount of work required to monitor and remediate security events is significantly reduced as it can be done any time from anywhere.

We See What Others Can’t

The detections from this software are out of this world effective. We found things lurking we had no idea of and seeing them get detected in real time and mitigated was fascinating. There is a lot of time saved by not having to worry about this piece in my security stack.
