How we review CrowdStrike

What this site is

CrowdStrike Reviews is an independent review aggregator. We are not CrowdStrike and we don't work for them. Our goal is simple: collect what real users say about CrowdStrike across the platforms where they post it, then organize it so you can make an informed decision in a few minutes instead of an afternoon.

Where the reviews come from

We aggregated 110 published reviews across 6 platforms. We did not write, edit, or solicit any of them. Every review is the words of a real CrowdStrike user, quoted from its original source:

  • G2· Verified reviews from security engineers and IT admins at mid-market and enterprise firms.
  • Gartner Peer Insights· Gartner-verified enterprise reviews, the largest CrowdStrike review pool.
  • TrustRadius· Long-form practitioner reviews. TrustRadius scores out of 10; CrowdStrike holds 9.0.
  • Capterra· Verified reviews leaning small business, the closest match to the self-serve Falcon buyer.
  • Software Advice· Shares Capterra's review pool; each shared review is quoted under one site only.
  • Google Play· Falcon mobile app ratings, not the platform. It is CrowdStrike's weakest-rated surface.

CrowdStrike averages 4.6 across 4,000+ ratings on five review platforms. The reviews on this site are a hand-picked snapshot of that corpus, chosen to reflect its recurring themes, critical reviews included.

How we score and tag

Each review is tagged by sentiment (positive, mixed, or critical) and by audience (security teams or it & business), so you can filter to the perspective that matches you. The verdict score on the homepage is the count-weighted average of the platforms' own public ratings, using the counts listed above. Our snapshot skews toward written and critical reviews on purpose, so its plain average (4.2/5) can run lower than the platform-wide figure. Neither number is made up, and neither is weighted to flatter the product.

TrustRadius reviewers score out of 10. We show each TrustRadius rating as its 5-point equivalent, rounded, so it sits on the same star scale as the other platforms.

Review lists open sorted by "Most relevant": detailed, recent reviews that describe what CrowdStrike did for the writer come first, drawn from a mix of platforms, and the critical ones come after. Switch the sort to Newest, Highest rating, or Lowest rating, or filter to Critical, to read them in another order. The order never changes the averages above, which count every review we show.

Why we publish critical reviews

A review site that only shows praise isn't a review site. We include the negative reviews on purpose: the billing complaints, the support frustrations, the edge-case bugs, all verbatim and unedited. Balance is the entire point. It's what lets you trust the positive reviews too.
