How to choose the right EDR? The checklist of questions to ask:
HarfangLab vs. CrowdStrike
HarfangLab is a solution tailored to the needs of organizations of all sizes, from small businesses to critical enterprise environments.
Its single, lightweight agent allows the platform to be deployed on 100% of an IT infrastructure’s endpoints, workstations, and servers, regardless of the OS. The platform is designed for easy feature configuration and data analysis, while offering connectors with numerous security tools for total autonomy.
The CrowdStrike agent is heavy, particularly on macOS, and this limitation can make it less suitable for deployment on critical assets.
HarfangLab has very little impact on endpoint performance. Its single, lightweight agent preserves the user experience on the information system.
CrowdStrike is an expensive solution that requires a high level of expertise to configure its features. Deployment is complex.
HarfangLab is simple and quick to deploy, and requires few resources.
CrowdStrike is a complex solution that requires advanced expertise to take advantage of its many features. The volume of data available is very large but not easily analyzed. The ecosystem is closed and some integrations are paid, making users captive.
HarfangLab’s interface is designed to ease analysis work: data is easily accessible and easy to analyze. The platform is open and provides numerous connectors.
CrowdStrike offers a 7-day data retention period, followed by paid packages to extend it.
HarfangLab provides 30 days of data retention by default, which can be extended to 90 days for all plans.
CrowdStrike does not provide an On-Premises version; the solution is only available in the Cloud.
HarfangLab offers Cloud and On-Premises versions with the same features to meet the needs of sensitive environments, even Air-gapped ones.
