We performed a comparison between Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Container Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It employs high availability."
"It is easy to maintain the solution."
"The most valuable features of AKS are rollback updates, high availability, easy management, speedy execution and deployment."
"The tool is budget-friendly."
"The platform's high scalability is one of its biggest advantages."
"The most valuable features of AKS are scalability, deployability, and automation."
"We like how easy it is to create the resources in this solution, thanks to how easy the UI is to use."
"Has a good management feature monitored by the cloud service provider."
"The initial setup is easy ."
"The most significant benefit is how quickly malware and other malicious attacks are detected."
"Cloud security is one valuable feature. Spotlight is the other one. There is also vulnerability management and a couple of more features."
"The immediate mitigation of potential threats and instant alerts are valuable."
"There is a lot that it can do, but endpoint protection is the main thing about it. The fact that it uses machine learning and artificial intelligence to monitor and remediate the issues in real-time is probably the bread and butter of the product."
"The most valuable feature of Falcon Cloud Security is its comprehensive threat-hunting ability."
"CrowdStrike utilizes signatureless technology, eliminating the need for regular signature updates on endpoint systems."
"The RTR feature stands out as particularly valuable to me due to its capability to log into machines."
"It just loses out because you have less access to it programmatically, with less technical or customizable access."
"AKS has the potential to enhance pricing by enabling us to explore ways to increase cost transparency. However, it's important to note that this refers to computation costs rather than client costs. Our objective is to optimize efficiency and minimize unnecessary expenses. Therefore, we aim to identify which services within the platform can benefit from improved consumption patterns. This is the focus of our ongoing research, with the goal of maximizing computational power within the cluster. We aim to avoid situations where resources are reserved but not utilized effectively. Additionally, our strong emphasis on security ensures that we adhere to all relevant compliance standards, bolstering our overall trustworthiness."
"Its integration functions could be enhanced."
"The initial setup of AKS is complicated. The setup depends on the cluster, nodes, and lots of other things. There are also lots of extremely critical small devices. Moreover, you will have to pay them even while setting up the solution. It is not like you setup first and then pay for it."
"I would like to see the stability get more synchronized."
"Configuration management and troubleshooting performance issues are difficult to solve and could be made easier."
"The product needs to support a UI dashboard. I have to execute every single command to check the status of services which takes time."
"The application firewall is lacking some features and there is room for enhancement."
"The threat intelligence and user behavioral analysis could be more comprehensive."
"Different file options should be available, and clients should be able to select from the options."
"The only suggestion for improvement would be the pricing."
"The CrowdStrike dashboard currently lacks a username field."
"One area for improvement in Falcon Cloud Security is the support portal."
"The only challenge lies in token verification."
"The log scale or Humio side of it where it collects the data and expands into the XDR world still needs time to develop in terms of the way it combines the data and metadata that flows into the platform. I know they're working on it."
"It would be more convenient if there was an easier way to install CrowdStrike, perhaps through better integration with Active Directory."
