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 like the detection rates of mobile threats."
"There's almost no maintenance required. It's very low if there's any at all."
"I value the overall behavior analysis of CrowdStrike. The engine of this product is what drew us to this solution."
"I like the overall reports of this solution. They are crisp, and to the point."
"Everything is automatic. I install the sensor and renew the service. Periodically, I get a notice that they've shut something down."
"Since we deployed CrowdStrike, the network has become much calmer, and we now understand the sources of infections, which helps us prevent them from spreading."
"The most valuable feature is its threat analysis."
"The automatic alert feature is the most important feature of the solution."
"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."
"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."
"The dashboard does not have the facility to export the reports in a PDF format, which I can quickly share with internal stakeholders."
"The technical support team often just replies to an issue with a link to an article rather than actually calling back and talking to someone and making sure the problem is solved. To me, that's kind of weak."
"I would like to see a little bit more in the offline scanning ability. This just comes from my background in what I have done in other positions. They only scan on demand, so I always have this fear that we sometimes maybe email out a dormant virus and can be held liable for that. That is something where I would like to see a little bit more robustness to the tool."
"Tighter integration around XDR could be included."
"The biggest issue with Falcon as a standalone product is it doesn't have very much reporting."
"The portal can be clunky to navigate at times and has room for improvement."
"It can be expensive depending on the features you select."
"We encounter occasional issues, such as when disabling network access for a host that uses CrowdStrike."
"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."
