We performed a comparison between CrowdStrike Falcon and Varonis Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Ransomware Protection solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I value the overall behavior analysis of CrowdStrike. The engine of this product is what drew us to this solution."
"We are happy with CloudStrike's ease of use and touch notification."
"From what we have seen, it is very scalable. We have recently acquired a company where someone had a ransomware attack when we joined networks. Within the course of just a few days, we were able to easily get CrowdStrike rolled out to about 300 machines. That also included the removal of that company's legacy anti-malware tool."
"Falcon's best feature is its detection and blocking of threats."
"The DLP is the most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon."
"Enables us to understand what processes are running on the system, what registry keys have been enabled."
"The Protect functionality on the laptops provides great visibility into what's occurring, and the cloud management of the platform is what we needed."
"Scalability hasn't been an issue for us."
"Varonis Platform is transparent and captures everything in the environment without impacting the performance. The tool helps us unify data feeds into a single reporting system."
"There's also a 90-day policy where if a user is not using the warehouse, it will automatically delete that username."
"The solution has significantly improved data security and compliance posture by allowing us to track and monitor activities. We can see who accesses data and when files are created and understand what's happening in our environment."
"Basically, they don't cover legacy OS or applications. That's the only issue we're concerned about"
"The GUI can use improvement, it's cloud-based so sometimes the interface can be a bit slow. The interface could use a little bit more speed."
"It can be expensive depending on the features you select."
"I have worked with their technical support on several problems that were never fully resolved."
"We can do a threat analysis of any machine at any time, but that threat analysis is very limited."
"CS Falcon sensing capabilities for non-domain machines should be enhanced since the agent doesn't detect the neighbor's IP Address and/or any anomaly which was identified in the network for the non-domain machine."
"I would like to see the machine learning feature enhanced."
"Technical support could be better than what is currently offered."
"There is one thing that if I add something manually, I get so many alerts. That's the biggest bad thing."
"The product is very complicated."
