Who is it for, and who is it not for?

SMALL OFFICE, NO IT STAFF

Falcon Go is the easiest way for a small office to put CrowdStrike's prevention engine on laptops and phones: buy online, trial it for 15 days, pay monthly or yearly, and have it running in about an hour. It is antivirus plus USB device control and nothing more. There is no EDR, no rollback, and a ceiling of 100 devices.

MANAGED BY AN MSP

Skip Falcon Go as an MSP product. CrowdStrike gives this tier no multi-tenant console, no RMM or PSA integration and no SIEM feed, so each client becomes a separate login and a manual job. MSPs who want CrowdStrike should price Falcon Enterprise, the first tier with EDR.

REGULATED (HIPAA, PCI, CMMC)

CrowdStrike publishes a strong compliance record: a PCI DSS attestation for customers, CMMC 2.0 mapping, FedRAMP authorisation and a Coalfire HIPAA report. It publishes no business associate agreement, so a healthcare practice has to ask sales for one. Falcon Go does not live up to the record. With no EDR telemetry, a practice or contractor could hold every right document and still be unable to show what happened on a breached machine.
