I've actually not worked anywhere that has used CrowdStrike. It's usually ruled out as too expensive (I've mostly worked in public sector). I've had very good experiences with Sentinel One and Microsoft Defender. I've had terrible experiences with Trellix and Sophos."Oopsy" aside, is CrowdStrike really that much better than the competition?

The big four (CRWD, S1, Prisma, and MDE) all mostly comparable tbh.

EDR (especially Windows EDR) is heavily commodified.

A commodified market with no good product? Something is wrong here.

It's enterprise software. The people using the software and the people choosing the software are not the same people. In many cases they only buy it to satisfy a contractual or regulatory requirement and then the primary criterion is which one costs less or which one's sales reps give the best kickbacks, with considerations like "is it any good" not really playing a major role.

I only worked at one shop that used CrowdStrike but TBH compared to the others I've had to deal with, definitely is the 'least' shitty compared to other competitors...
