Hoxhunt Reviews & Product Details

I want to mention that Hoxhunt is really very good platform. The simulations that they create to run the email drill is very realistic. Subject line and body, both are made realistic and relevant that we can easily trust it unless we look at the email address. Their training modules are also very informative. I also like its easy integration with my email client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No cons till now, I can only share praise for this platform, looking the hard work they have done in modernizing their platform and making integration easier, and not to forget, the quality of their content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Hoxhunt gamifies the learning experience. It also keeps you “on your toes” with frequent tests that you can complete in just a few minutes every few weeks or so. It really helps you strengthen your security awareness without even realizing it or having to make a conscious effort.

The UI is really nice looking and the learning cards and animations are beautiful and smooth.

It's worth every penny for our company since we've had so much less actual successful phishing attacks etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was a little bit hard to change the language of the UI.

Also sometimes it's frustrating when one misses the test by actually believing - but this is really for the good of myself and the company I work for. I learn so much from mistakes! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Hoxhunt is how simple and engaging it is to use. The phishing simulations feel realistic and relevant to the types of emails you might actually receive, rather than feeling like generic security training. The experience is straightforward, and when you interact with a simulation the feedback and training are short, clear and useful. I particularly like that the simulations keep you thinking about phishing as part of everyday work without the training becoming time-consuming or disruptive.

There isn’t anything major that I dislike about Hoxhunt. If I had to highlight areas for improvement, I’d like to see more variety and intelligence in the phishing simulations, as some can become easier to recognise over time. Greater visibility of how Hoxhunt integrates with other security and business tools would also be useful, along with clearer reporting around the value and ROI the training is delivering. The platform performs reliably in my experience, but more insight into the available integrations, ongoing support and advanced features would help users get even more value from it.

It’s a great tool that helps teach every employee to stay aware of the biggest weakness in cybersecurity: humans themselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a cybersecurity specialist, I find the emails way too easy and a little repetitive. Great for most people, but I see the same patterns and domains used all the time. I've personally managed to phish IT colleagues using homographs (for example: boIiden.com != boliden.com). Outlook doesn't recognize this, but Gmail did. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how Hoxhunt has equipped me with a high level of preparedness in cyber safety and security. It provides insightful training on tricks and tactics that hackers and online scammers use, allowing me to spot potential threats instantly. The initial setup was smooth, making it easy to integrate into my routine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd like to see improvement in the intervals of phishing tests that are sent out to users. The tests currently come once in a month or even every two months at times, and increasing the frequency would help users become more enlightened on recognizing phishing attacks and similar threats.

I really like the gamification of the cyber security training. I also appreciate the organization-wide leaderboard that shows where I stack up among my peers. The trainings are frequent enough to keep security top of mind, but not so often that they become a nuisance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn’t much I can think of that’s negative about the platform. The only thing I’d suggest is adding a way to climb into the top 10 based on something other than how quickly someone responds to an email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI is very clean and interactive. It integrates smoothly with our company email and feels easy to fit into existing workflows. It’s also highly customizable, which I appreciate. Performance has been solid so far, and everything responds quickly. The tutorial and onboarding experience are well done and make it easy to get started. I also really enjoy the start achievement feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m not a huge fan of the fact that, sometimes, when I’m trying to preview a link to investigate it (as taught in onboarding), it still counts as a click and then fails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hoxhunt has performed reliably in regular day-to-day use. The platform is responsive, and actions such as reporting suspicious emails and receiving feedback happen quickly without noticeably interrupting the user's workflow. The phishing simulations and automated interactions have also been delivered consistently, even when used across a larger employee population.

What I liked most about the onboarding experience was how straightforward it was to get the platform integrated into our existing workflow. The initial setup was relatively smooth, and the user experience made it easy for employees to understand how to report suspicious emails without requiring extensive training.

The training and guidance provided during onboarding were also useful because they helped explain not only how to use the platform, but also how Hoxhunt fits into a broader security awareness program. When support was needed, the documentation and guidance were clear enough to resolve most questions without creating significant disruption.

From a performance perspective, one of the main benefits is that the security workflow runs largely in the background. Employees can report potential threats without having to leave their normal email workflow, while the platform processes the reports and provides feedback with minimal delay. I have not experienced significant performance or reliability issues during regular use, which is important for a security awareness platform that needs to operate continuously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area that could be improved is the level of customization available for the user experience. Some training and feedback interactions can feel repetitive over time, especially for users who already have a good understanding of cybersecurity practices.

It would also be useful to have more detailed reporting and analytics options, particularly for measuring long-term improvement and ROI. More flexibility in integrations and dashboard customization could help organizations better connect Hoxhunt data with their existing security and performance reporting tools.

Overall, these are relatively minor points, as the platform is easy to use and provides clear value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I liked Hoxhunt’s simple, easy-to-navigate UI, and I found its training modules both interesting and genuinely engaging. Their service was easily integrated with existing system and also they have good support system. I was also impressed with its low pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the Hoxhunt add-in doesn’t work properly, which makes it difficult for me to report phishing emails. I also think they could make us of AI more effectively to add more interesting features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hoxhunt has been an incredibly informative and educational platform for learning about cybersecurity. It provides practical, real-world examples that help employees understand how cyber threats occur and, more importantly, how they can be prevented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is very little to dislike about Hoxhunt. If I had to mention one thing, it would be that it can be a bit disappointing when you get a scenario wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
