One of the best endpoint security solution
Overall, I am thoroughly impressed with Falcon, with its ease of use and commendable anomaly detection.
Pros
Detailed analysis of processes, logon attempts, and great ability to sync with Splunk and Active Directory. Great dashboard to add to the best parts. The falcon complete team does a great work to ensure endpoint security is well
Cons
The falcon complete team sometimes does not provide additional details about False Positive events or why a software was classified malicious.

Good EDR, lot's of features and integration
We liked it. There are a couple features only available to Windows endpoints, but those features are slated to be on Mac OS X shortly. We are waiting on that. As a Splunk user, the integrated Splunk dashboards in the Falcon console are really nice and easy to use.
Pros
Good interface, lots of Splunk dashboards integrated in the dashboards. Good drilldown capability. Love the process execution tracking functionality
Cons
The interface took a couple hours (tops) to get used to, but it wasn't bad. There was a little snag with Mac OS X Catalina, but that's been resolved.
Reasons for choosing Falcon
Very similar features, came down to price and SIEM integration.
Reasons for switching to Falcon
Needed better functionality that BD wasn't providing.

Expensive product in a crowded marketplace
Pros
This tool gave us unparalleled visibility into our environment that we did not have with an old school antivirus agent.
Cons
That the initial install on some systems did not go as planned.

Pros
It takes less storage to install on client machine and protection is good compared from other's. It is really next generation antivirus.
Cons
All is good and no need to improvement as per my point of view.

Feature Packed and Informative Software
I enjoy it and find it useful. It's much better than our last vendor who would cause computers to freeze and crash. This runs more in the background and seems less intrusive for users
Pros
The support team is very responsive and helps guide us through any issues we have. They also help clear up what is a rather complex, information filled portal.
Cons
There is a ton of information that can be overwhelming if you are not well versed in security. Fortunately the support teams guide you through any confusion you may have.
Reasons for switching to Falcon
Trend started causing our computers to crash after an update and they weren't going to have a fix for weeks but that turned into months.
