    I don't have any frame of reference for comparison, but the training that I have used has proved impactful for my staff. Since starting KnowBe4 training, we've seen a great increase in the number of phishing attempts, but also a great increase in the number of attempts that have been recognized by staff, and we have thus not been the victim of phishing or other cyberattact vectors

    KnowBe4
    • Phish tests can be set to various difficulty levels as staff becomes more knowledgeable in catching phish emails.
    • Automated phish tests and training save a lot of admin time. The product can also test for phone and USB stick practices.
    • The phish alert button in Outlook, along with PhishER and PhishFlip allow easy managing and response to actual phishing emails.
    • The interactive training is well designed to cover all types of phishing and safe email and phone behavior.

    Tech prod support is great! I did have to ask for a new customer success rep, needed a more experienced person to match my 12 years of experience running Cybersec training programs. Would suggest that more matching of rep level of knowledge to client level knowledge would help.

    KnowBe4 offered a significantly more favorable cost-benefit ratio compared to other solutions. Its seamless integration with our existing infrastructure—particularly Active Directory and email systems—was the most compatible with our operational and security requirements.

    The team was great to work with and took their time to ensure that we knew what we were doing with the product and that it was set up to meet the specific needs of our organization. This wasn't just a cookie-cutter deployment, but rather they focused specifically on our needs.
