How Falcon Flex works
Falcon Flex lets customers commit spend with CrowdStrike and deploy modules from a shared pool, rather than buying each one separately. It makes it easier to try and adopt new capabilities during the term.
Charlotte AI and credits
Charlotte AI, CrowdStrike's generative AI security analyst, and related automation are increasingly priced on credits, which adds a usage-based line to a platform traditionally priced per endpoint.
What it means at renewal
Modules adopted through Flex become part of the baseline, and credits add a line that is harder to forecast than a device count. Contracts commonly renew automatically, so the renewal date and the notice date both matter.
Where Deal IQ comes in
This page covers what has changed and where the cost sits. Turning that into a better price on your contract is the negotiation itself. Deal IQ has run 60+ CrowdStrike negotiations covering $135M+ in contract value, with a network of 350+ former vendor sales, pricing and deal desk leaders that includes people who sold for CrowdStrike. We negotiate directly with CrowdStrike or behind the scenes with your team, and our fee comes from the savings.
