What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
Best for: Teams already running CrowdStrike Falcon
It earns its place for teams already on Falcon, because you add a module to an agent you already run instead of deploying something new. It covers both Entra ID and Okta, so it fits mixed identity estates. It detects and stops attacks but does not manage access, so keep your governance and PAM plans separate.
